XP

I'd like to start by congratulating everyone on barely surviving to almost get into the mausoloeum that leads to the dungeon which is where you're actually going. I see nothing but good things in your future. And as a reward each of you gets 1,600 XP. Not a bad start. Just imagine how quickly the XP will add up after a few of you get killed off! If you guys had just let Loki get carried away by the gargoyle the rest of you would've gotten about 150 more XP each. Think about that before rushing to someone's aid. Live and learn.
If that's enough XP to get anyone a new level please let me know.

Don't forget, no D&D on 2/4.

Love,
D.L.

Sweet! Now we're going to have a 6th level magic user with the lightning bolt spell.

Cool, grats on leveling up the mage. Just be careful not to look like this guy casting those lightning bolts! BTW, this movie makes me feel MUCH better about my geeky tendencies - lol!

OH MY GOD! I thought we were geeky, but after watching that Lightning Bolt video I'm going to rethink or geeky status. WOW!

Wow. Just... wow.

It kind of reminds me of a really (really!) bad version of the Society for Creative Anachronism battles I used to go see at UI.

I guess they have a reputation for being kinda geeky, but at least they make sure they're strong enough to actually wield the weapons they carry. And they pay a lot of attention to technique: Fighting scool

Hey I was in the SCA and I'm not a geek...well...maybe I am...well....ok, I am :D

Maybe so, but a *strong* geek - what struck me as most funny about that video (well, second-most, after the 'lightning-bolt' stuff) was that it looked like some of the fighters were unable to hold up their (foam) weapons, let alone swing them in a plausible manner. You wouldn't last very long in an SCA melee with skills like that...

My favorite part was the person on the side clapping at the end...like "that was great!"

Y'know, I was thinking about that - perhaps that was the game master? I don't know how LARPs work, but wouldn't there have to be someone there to decide when the ogres have had enough lightning bolts and broomstick pokes?

My favorite part is when the "Magic User" throws his second "Lightning Bolt" and it misses the paper mache ogre entirely and hits the guy standing behind him right in the face. And the guy who gets hit in the face with the lightning bolt just shakes it off like it never happened. In the spirit of LARPs he should've at least lit his own hair on fire before using his Broomstick of Sleeping.
