..thought a WOLF was a GHOST!!!

2008-11-23T20:55:00.002-05:00

While we were camping in my portable tower earlier, Tam saw a wolf and thought, get this, she actually thought the wolf was a ghost. The ranger thought a wolf was a ghost.

The mage is a better ranger than this one.

We're Going on an Adventure

2008-11-23T20:49:00.002-05:00

So, on our way to an elf-convent thing, we met this fighter, Dean.

What a cock. Seriously.

He's loud, he's rude, he's ugly as a hen's ass, and above all else, he said I was just a rogue.

Just a rogue.

What does that even mean? Like, you know, he's just a fighter.
Cock.

Tam is an elf.

2008-11-23T20:48:00.001-05:00

Who knew?

Tam had an idea. Everyone run.

2008-11-23T20:45:00.002-05:00

Wow. Tam had a great idea. The first in her life, probably. She'll set up traps, and I'll disable them. I can tell her how to make them more difficult to disable, and she can give me tips on finding well-hidden traps.

Brilliant, no?

Back to Town

2008-09-18T20:41:00.001-04:00

Back to town. Things will probably be boring for a while.
Not that I mind.
I need time to procure myself some gold.

Damn, there was air in that damn bubble...

2008-09-17T20:37:00.002-04:00

Well, I ended up getting that helpless ranger out of that bubble. I mean, I had nothing else better to do...

...besides, having her in the party makes me look really smart.

Lady Arcadia;

2008-09-17T20:31:00.001-04:00

- oh so beautiful and oh so evil. I'm lucky I got the drop on her or we'd all be charred mutton. Well, all but that damn ranger still in her protective little bubble. I hope there isn't any air in it.

The interrogation went less-smoothly. She burst from her restraints and killed my unknowing brother. Once again, we're lucky that the lovely Aamiya was there. Pelor gave her the speed and strength to bring him back.

Lucky, lucky him.
Lucky, lucky me.

We're Okay.

2008-09-17T20:23:00.002-04:00

Thank Olidammara for Aamiya and Sid.

Alas, I spoke too soon.
There's Tam.
In a bubble.
Stuck.

We'll come back for her.
Eventually.

2008-09-17T20:08:00.003-04:00

As i lay here bleeding out, I, with my last dying breath curse that ranger for destroying everything that I've worked toward. Putting Aamiya in danger and killing the ones who could protect her. As I scrawl these words I know truly how helpless I really am. I'm not sad Tam is gone. I almost feel like she was against us all alon

Worst. Ranger. In. History.

2008-09-17T03:40:00.000-04:00

So, there's Tam. Couldn't find a more annoying ranger. I sneak in doing my rogue things, that only a rogue can do well, about to kill everyone in the room with one feral sneak attack, and Tam comes running in all, "uh, hello," like an idiot blowing our cover. Most literally, worst ranger ever.

2008-09-17T03:16:00.000-04:00

"Door-holdy-shutty-thingy-spelly."

Stupid ranger.

Unappreciative

2008-09-17T03:15:00.000-04:00

The bitch has no appreciation. I let her out of that cage. I helped her, and only I could have. And who does she run to? Malek. The one fucking thing I can do right, and it's taken for granted.

Aamiya

2008-09-16T22:29:00.001-04:00

Aamiya has made her trust and faith in me apparent; the only one now that father is gone.
I must not fail her again

One good deed...

2008-09-15T22:18:00.006-04:00

Perhaps the only helpful thing I've ever done;

I killed an entire room full of orcs and kobolds.

Even then only by the help of that Dagger.
Even further so, it was by poisoning them at their last supper.

The road to hell...

2008-09-14T22:03:00.003-04:00

As my trap sense has failed me once it has failed me a thousand times. Warning them to stay back while I disabled a pressure pad I was so happy to find did nothing but force them forward when I failed and triggered it anyway. Only after barely preventing them from dying for just a little longer at the accidental discovery of a release switch.

Though with good intentions, I'm doing what rogues do best;

Fuck over everyone and escape without a scratch.

"All clear..."

2008-09-13T21:50:00.001-04:00

...just a split second before the click, and

schrrrrrthuck scrrrrrshluck whoooosh

The sound of the floor dropping out from under her comrades' feet.
Again.

"Olidammara, ARE YOU GUYS ALRIGHT?!"
"Ow."
"Yes..."
"My rump hurts."
"Are we even?"

For the umpteenth time, my trap sense has failed, almost killing my party, my friends. My inadequacy... I can't... I must save them. I must protect them.

Even if it kills me.

Losing Control

2008-09-12T20:37:00.001-04:00

"This is not what I signed up for, damnit," Leighlann screams as she touches the Dagger to her throat. "I will end this right god-damned now, so help me Olidammara!"

YOU ARE NOTHING WITHOUT ME. ONCE YOU ARE GONE, I WILL FIND ANOTHER.

"Get out of my head!"
The Dagger laughs mercilessly.

TWITCH, MY PAWN. SQUIRM.

She slowly sinks to the floor, Dagger falling from her trembling hand, uncontrollable sobs bubbling from her throat.

STOP YOUR BITCHING. GET THE FUCK UP AND LET'S GO BEFORE I DECIDE TO FORCIBLY END YOUR INSUBORDINATION.

Leighlann drags herself to her feet feeling weak, wiping the tears from her eyes with the palms of her hands, completely helpless against the whims of her weapon.

"Damn you. Damn. You."

Leighlann
