Many wows, Inestil!
« on: February 24, 2007, 10:42:57 PM »
So, Pyyran stumbled across a couple of other characters he knew in Vehl, was chatting, and suddenly a well-meaning pawn shop girl walks up and warns them about weird happenings in the Fens...

An amazing off-the-cuff adventure that I couldn't tear myself away from! Captivating is the word that comes to mind, and intense. Great RP from Cailina and Darkstorme, and great quest from Inestil!

I guarantee that your first calendar quest, no matter how horrible a time it is at, will be full to the brim. :)

You set out to make the evening more interesting and, man, did you succeed.

Dam- er, darn straight!

It was an exciting and clever little side-quest, that left me feeling that Kell had accomplished something (the preventation of the messy deaths of everyone in Valensk, say), and was intelligently done throughout.  Any time we grew too complacent, a monster would sniff its way perilously close; every time we thought we had a handle on a situation, it inexplicably (but logically) got worse!  (When the stirges first started swarming, I don't think I've ever seen Pyyran back off so quickly.)

Checks were nicely spaced and timed so it wasn't all dicework, and intelligent thinking and stealth were rewarded.  (As a rogue, I cannot praise this highly enough.)  Flavour text was excellent, leaving me feeling like I should have a bath, and bringing home the potential epidemic feel.

In short, kudos and high praise to Inestil, for what was likely the best off-the-cuff adventure I've had the pleasure of participating in in Layonara.  (This is not meant as disparagement towards other off-the-cuff adventures I've been involved in:  he was just that good.)

Thanks!

That is good...  I only wish I coulda been there for that one.  The last time I was on Inestil quest I got broken in half by an Ogre, but either way his quests are always interesting.  (Never knew Ogres charged trolls...  er tolls)

As the third player to be fortunate enough to experience this wonderful little side quest, I'd like to add my thanks and congratulations to the pile. It was a wonderfully constructed story, and as Stephen put it, absolutely captivating. Well thought out, engaging, and delightful ... I can't praise it enough.

Those two hours completely made my night. So thanks!
