Something Rotten In Humberton

[IainC]

There is a knock at the door and a cough from beyond. Without waiting for you to invite him in, a man in the robes of a Friar steps into your room. Looking not nearly apologetic enough he raises a hand in greeting and sits down. You rise to your feet but he cuts in, anticipating your question.
"I'm sorry to intrude, but I fear I am being spied on. There is treachery afoot in the realm and I fear that my position on the Council will make me a target for the conspiracy."
The man rubs a hand over a tired and wrinkled face.
"I am sorry, I should introduce myself. I am Vorost of the Humberton Council. This is all so.. melodramatic and yet it must be so I'm afraid. I need to know that I can trust you. Will you come to Humberton tomorrow evening ? I may have uncovered more of the conspirators plot by then. I do not think that we have much time."
A shadow falls across the window and the old man looks up, startled.
"Well my son !" His voice booms across the room and his disposition changes dramatically although you can see his fingers are shaking slightly.
"I am glad you were able to discuss your business with me. Perhaps I shall buy the items from you tomorrow."
Rising to his feet, the old friar shoots you one last desperate glance before setting out into the inky dark beyond.

News.

The plot thickens.

Hmmm I thought he meant Fingoniel

 

[Silmarwen]

Tought it was a new of those "Humberton Guards swear" threats >_<

 

[Eraser]

Hmmm I thought he meant Fingoniel

maybe not the most original joke as its so obvious but still made me laughing

 

[Flimgoblin]

Nonsense, Fingoniel's a lovely chap. That Glamis however.... dodgy I tell you dodgy.

That or it's the smell Thep leaves behind.

May have to send some guardsmen to see what this Vorost fellow is on about. Steward Willie tells me he's a crackpot... then again Steward Willie tells me just about everyone is a crackpot.

Isn't Steward Willie a crackpot though... I wouldn't take his recommendation

For the non roleplayers heres a translation
There seems to be some dodgy geezer called Vorost, he thinks there is some bad shit goin down in albion, he wants to have a natter about these dodgy dealings, thinks he might have some more goss tommorow, appears to be psychitzo.

No idea whats going on, but I suspect it might, just might have something to do with Humberton today

Where's camelot?

 

[judas]

Where's camelot?

ps. the avalon city you see on the map aint were it shold be.
cba to edit the spelling on camelot.

 

[CliffyG]

Sorry to be pedantic but you have Humberton in the wrong place, should be a bit lower.

 

[wittor]

tnx for the map judas xD

 

[Dordanov]

LOL, who would buy a 50 HO Sorc? Anyway the map isn't in scale as they show humberton a lot closer to the bridge than camelot which is wrong and why i said it should be further south.

 

[Teren]

thats an oooold map xD

[judas]

arf missed it all :\ as ive missed every even exept end beta one :\
anyone got a vid or screens of it?

 

[Duze]

Should have taken a screeny of all the alb bodies lying around when I got there.... but since they started more or less at snow station and went all the way up the hill to snow fort it wasn't possible
Those things hit damn hard tho... got a 2hand purple con arms on me and was half way thru saying on teamspeak "I think this is gonna ....." never got to the "Hurt" part

 

[Coren]

Just checked my screenies and tbh they are the worst I've ever taken so I'm not even gonna bother.

Nice event though.

amagaad im in #3

seriously tho was good fun, only the second 'event' type thing i've been in, loved it, as someone else said the BG was spammed with chat and kinda hard to see but other than that it was great

i Ld'd just before we killed the last bloke though ah well

 

[Ghaladriel]

lolz judas xDD

 

[Gordonax]

It was probably the most fun event I've done, and thanks to Requiel for organising it. You can imagine it was a bit of a surprise when Friar Vorost joined the BG we'd started!

I was hoping for a big zerg on Swanton

We'd managed to farm lots of supplies to get the re-inforcements up, we spent more time trying to get more water and herbs back to swanton to bolster the numbers more. But it wasnt really needed

The healer bots running around were great tho
