"Quick Review by Memory"

One
I was a little apprehensive going into this Madrigal event, considering how vehemently some on the Seekers felt about my staying in the web, not to mention the rest of town, and what it would mean for all the Kh'rewyn stuff I was working on. I expected trouble, and what I got was utterly fantastic roleplay.

I'd say my attempt at running a rogue game went moderately well, and I already have plans for the next.

Yay! I'd love to hear how it went from your perspective.

NPCs ... absolutely fantastic

It was the weekend of fabulous NPCs. I adore them all.

And yay for everything else! (I was more than a little worried about how some of that would fall out, m'self.)

The memorable NPC section of my PEL is going to rather long, I'm afraid.

With Valeska watching the boxes, it didn't require much active attention. I didn't get anyone playing until Sat. morning, and then I got to watch them go through the question list. It looked like I succeeded in picking questions that were not all immediately known to people, but not difficult to find out. Those who played seemed to enjoy it, and it got some conversations going.

I liked the putting tokens in the box method (rather than having players take tokens) to track progress. Opening an empty box isn't as fun, but then they don't have to track me down to turn them in.

I'm not normally one to play characters that break down in tears, unlike certain Naporeans of my acquaintance, but sometimes it's the only response to being questioned by Black Templars. :)

And the one time I cried this event was because of you! :) You handled yourself so, so well during the trial, but then when you got choked up at the end, I did too... I needed the hug as much as I thought you did. And your emotion at the end was beautiful, it gave a great sense of "I've put up with all your hostile questions, and I've answered you calmly and reasonably, but this is hard for me and it hurts to continue being attacked when I'm trying to do something good."

You guys were great. Seeing you in the audience, in particular, gave me hope because I knew you had started the gather cool to my choice.

Seriously, she'd have been even more of a wreck without the words (and hugs) of support from certain other people. They meant a lot.

Terra really wanted to convey her thanks for Riana watching over her by showing up to the trial to support her and giving her a brief hug and back rubs. It was neat to see you really shine during that tough time. :) Glad I was there to watch.

[riana_elf]

Oh good, I was worried about my hovering coming off as overbearing or smothering. I actually really liked how active you were as a healer, looking for places you could help.

Thank you for coming. Looking into the audience and seeing friendly faces helped keep me focused during the trial. And it reminded me that even if I lost, even if I was cast out, I would still have family who supported me.

Oh no, not at all. That's just how I've decided to play this character. I don't really have a tight nit group that I hang with, but I'm a floater. She just wants to help everyone - which has proven to be a minor flaw apparently.

*hugs* You did great. :) Especially once they said that there was no negative or downside in it for you. I almost stood up and started yelling but figured that would be a bad idea.

I cam really close to my own "Would you prefer more of a downside for one of your own people? That's just childish"
