Summary of Game #34

Quiet Riddle and Seeker had been missing for a while.

Stag finally lead the way for the rescue pack (led by Desert Voice) into an odd Umbra Realm where, to open a passage home without destroying balance, they had to either wake the sleeping King, or beat the two factions fighting for control and assume leadership of the realm
the two factions were known as Twilight and Gloming
After deliberation and contests, the Garou gathered under the accepted alpha of all present, Seeker, and under the name Dawn.

contests were of combat, storytelling, and a hunt
The alpha bested both their champions in combat (even though they were fighting with silver swords)
The beta (Desert Voice) pulled a close second with stories (though they were probably just more use to their own style of stories

then came the hunt
a large boar
all we needed was its tusk
after moments of combat, talking to it finally got it just to give up its tusk and it ran away into its cave.

The pack opened a portal home (now that they were the rulers of the realm) and woke the king on their way out (after returning the tusk back to the boar)

the event was populated with bits of a rank challenge, the finding of a new cliath, and his quote of:
"Those Rabbits were kicking my ass"

the most peculiar portion of the whole event was the task assigned to the original Alpha of the rescue pack...
to bring back seeker for accusation of murdering Kinfolk!

we shall see what heppens as the game goes on

NEXT GAME IS A MOOT!

Update

So the casino was PEED ON
some Bastet was marking its territory
the cleansing ritual almost drove our fellow garou insane.
but they didn't stop there, they hunted down the bastet and defeated him in his own realm. This wasn't easy as he was zapping them with lightening left and right and was able to bend the realm to his will. after an avalanche tried to finish them off, the began their escape. The bastet had other plans as he wanted to know he killed one of them (poor blind ambition almost fullfilled his wish) but this brought out the pure rage of the garou who tore the bastet to shreds. many wounds were licked and some battle scars were to be had. the question lies in whether tehy will keep the scar and the honor it brings, or sacrifice it to be of more use to the caern. blind ambition lost his newly usable eyes and gidlock lost use of his only GOOD hand. Only time will tell what they will do.

some other garou found a chantry and went in to deal with the mnysteries inside
anyone wishing to fill me in with more info, i will post it here

any other info can be added in comments

stay tuned next week where i will hopefully have bugged a rumour or two out of our narrators and storyteller.

When sound plans don't always work

Why me, I ask. Rickety old houses are and never were my favorite places to visit. There I was following the rest of the pack watching the Ragabashes cross a threshold in this old parlor. It really didn't help that the wood was rotten--completely. Watching, they collapsed the entire floor in front of us walking around as homids. We are so much lighter as lupuses.

There I am alone with Gutrender left wondering how I was going to cross the hold without falling in. Then it came to me. The wooden floor may not be as bad in the side rooms of this place. Pulling back to avoid the rotten wood as much as I could, I changed to Crinos and burst through an ajointing wall. Success.

Thinking to myself, the only thing I have left to do is get to the stairway on the other side of the wall in front of me. Glancing through the doorway to the gaping hole beyond that was the floor that allowed access to the way out, I shook my head. Can't go that way I thought. Swallowing, I ran across the room into the wall next tot eh stairway.

It is amazing how much sound plans don't always work. The stairs were not where they should have been. The next I found was that I was in complete darkness ..... and falling. Fie on me.

As I was falling, I felt something grap me. Using my light crystal, I found myself floating in the air in the hands of a gargoyle. Fie. In a flash, I thought to myself, Today IS a good day to die. Reaching out, I broke its wing. That was when I noticed that there two. ::sigh::

In the darkness, I felt fangs bite into my throat and my consciousness left me.

When I came to, I was outside the evil dwelling and being placed on a Helicopter.

ooc note

[ooc: this isn't a storyline with the STs. But, it is approved for me to do this.
growl's journal is being updated occasionally. the entried are labelled by who can get at them, and a slowly evolving story. Mind, all this means in the game is you have an idea of what's going on w/ growl's. I'm not bringing the character back.]

A letter from London addressed to the Alpha:

A letter from London addressed to the Alpha:

I am safe. Yet, I have acted dishonorably in leaving. There is no excuse for my behavior; and I accept the loss of honor, glory, and wisdom that I'm sure this quest for a child will cause me. My need for a child has helped me to act rashly. Yet it was still, in the end, my decision. I suck. And I'm sorry for it.

Quick Request

OOC: in continueing to give ppl reasons to visit the live journal, i request that those of you involved post a quick background for your characters in your respective journals. if you are just watching by proxy from you real LJ account and do not wish to create a separate journal. feel free to write a post in teh community and i will link it to your name. these backgrounds should just be what ppl could find out about you if they went looking. do not include any rare secrets or your plans for after you become a bsd.

thank you

Summary of game #22 (June 23)

So word of mouth is carrying stories of coyote and pregnant women. Talk around the caern seems to include stories of a battle with BSDs in Reno. Some garou have recieved battle scars. Some recieved bad dreams. Challenges for rank are still underway as we have moot either next time or the time after.

the evening seemed a little slow with a couple of new BoneGnawer Galliards, Travels by Train and the ever confused Sleeps in Trash. Suddenly, there was a comotion as a group was formed to go check out reports of a guy in a leisure suit named Larry who was impregnating women in the casino and leaving them. At the same time, a group was heading of with the alpha to examine the past of an amnesia sufferer that involved the BSDs and their corporation.

Those that investigated Larry discovered that it was Coyote and that he just has too much time on his hands. Many discussed convincing someone in the caern to take him as a totem. Seeker, however, suffered some nightmares from coyote. Apparently, sources say, he had inferred Coyote might be gay and Coyote wasn't too happy when he found out. Hopefully Seeker has made ammends and the dreams have stopped.

The brewery in Reno turned out to be two buildings that were rather run down, both in the telerium and the umbra. underneath was a room that was essentially a breeding ground for BSDs. a peak in the umbra indicated 6 Dancers waiting to dance. The whole team slipped in and took care of them with some certain ammounts of luck (Lady Luck must have been watching) All fought well and some even recieved their first battle scar, including Memphis and Skids.

Ulric and Memphis hadn't been seen in a while so it was nice to see them turn up. it was also nice to welcome the new galliards. on the other hand, some ppl are worried about not having seen Cypher, Rolls the Dice, or Shrouds the Storm in quite some time.

keep tuned here for rumours and stories and feel free to post greater details in your own character journals. remember that next moot a story will be chosen from those in the character journals since last moot for extra XP. Summaries will be posted monday after game like this and rumours should be posted the monday before game.
also feel free to add any tidbits that happened that i missed. write it in a generic word of mouth version. your character journals are for the detailed versions. see you all around

LJ Maintenence

well i have updated the info page
i think there are some players not reflected there and some players no longer with us. i went off the web page. if you know ppl that are not listed, please let me know. if you see ppl you know no longer play, only tell me if they have left in storyline. otherwise i am assuming they are around the city and could come back to game anytime.

something for us to note as we bring new ppl to the game, we currently have (according to the website) 5 galliards and 4 philodox to the 9 ragabash, 10 theurges, and 12 ahroun. it was really difficult to find a galliard last game to go on missions and i think the only philodox was a new guy. encourage these auspices in the friends you bring to play.

things are starting to come together here, see ya'll around.
