*snickers* Well, Ember was vaguely apologetic. I'm sure Bree would've "loaned him down the river" with nary a second thought.

Incorrect! The loaning was the second thought!

Hi everyone,

I just wanted to let you know that unfortunately I've had to move the Red Red Wine quest that was originally scheduled for Tuesday. An unexpected commitment reared its ugly head, and I can't weasel my way out of it!

I've moved the quest forward one week, which means it now falls on November 11th, which is a holiday for most people. I've kept the timeslot the same, but if it turns out everyone can't make it, we'll find another time.

Again, so sorry for the late notice and inconvenience!

I'm actually pleased with the move as I need to see the election coverage Tuesday evening!

Hello everyone,

Red Red Wine is just about wrapped up, so last chance to get any follow-up PMs in to me! Two players have already approached me about their characters' actions, and I will be touching base with both of you through PMs within the next couple of days.

To others involved in this quest -- I am giving you until Sunday evening to PM me if you have anything pressing! Unless you give me a good reason, the follow-up will be through PMs or IRC rather than IG. After everything is settled, I'll post the results to Rumors or our quest thread.

To everyone else -- I will probably take a week off, but look for another scheduled quest the week after that! I will post on the calendar and here as soon as I can nail down my schedule for that week.

Cheers!

Eh I had a great time, thank you for the time and effort put into a supposedly one night event that took 3 weeks to conclude! Keep your quests at the same time slot then I can enjoy more of them as it's a perfect time for me! Also thanks Oriborous for ataching me to Tim so I could watch the end even though Chaynce was plant food, dang mean druid. Well done all the way around, the Xeenies were great as well as everyone else.

Hi questers,

After a hiatus for end of November/December-related busyness and a few weeks off with CDQs, we are back on for December 18.

This quest will be mostly RP, quite short, and is open to anyone. Characters not meeting the level requirement for Dregar but who wish to attend can PM me and we will set up a port for you on the day of the quest.

This will be an introduction to an upcoming quest series involving a brave, gallant and perhaps dangerous expedition to the far north.

Hope to see you there!
~Carillon

An unexpected opportunity on a large shipment of goods brings The Mermaid from Lor to Hurm ...

Several ship captains from Leringard bring curious adventurers to the northern Dregar port to hear Captain Carden Grant propose his next great voyage.

//Or in other words, we are changing venues for tonight as there have been more signups than I anticipated. Trust me, you'll thank me when you don't all have to cram into the tiny Traveler's Choice Tavern!

Please meet in Hurm, but I will be giving ports to those who don't get the message.

Reminder: Dark Waters starts two hours from the time of this post! Meet in Hlint.

Level requirement is 1-14, and will be quite firm. If your only character is level fifteen ... well, we can talk! But otherwise, dust off that low level alt that's been languishing in the Vault, because this one is under fifteen only!

Hi Questers,

The best laid plans of mice and men! I just got a call informing me of a meeting scheduled later today that I have to attend, which unfortunately falls right into my setup, prep and start time for tonight's quest, "The Spirit Of The North: Departure". With great reluctance, I have to bump tonight's session back one week.

I know people work hard to schedule these quests into their busy lives so I'll try not to leave you all hanging. As soon as I find out how long my meeting should run I will post a new start time for a much smaller mini-quest. Keep an eye on the calendar!

Again, apologies about the late notice. You are finding out about it at the same time I am.

Carillon · « **Reply #30 on:** January 20, 2009, 09:09:07 PM »

Okay folks,

I'm going to try for a short mini-quest for all those who made some time tonight. Think of it more as a semi-scheduled impromptu! Let's aim to start in Hlint at 6:45 PM PST. (25ish minutes from the time of this post)

All levels will be welcome, but heavy level splits may make combat dangerous so be prepared for this!
Adventure guide forecast: bashy and possibly dangerous, depending on party and party actions.
Meet in Hlint
Expected quest length: about one hour

Hi everyone,

After last week's delay, The Spirit of the North is back on again for Tuesday. Check The Calendar

As a reminder, this will be the first installment of a longer quest series that will run for several weeks at minimum. Participants are strongly encouraged to make an effort to commit to the entire series, and prior participants will always have priority for sessions. Some sessions will be open to new participants, but later on in the quest the party will probably get locked, so join early!

Overview of the Series: Captain Carden Grant intends to take his ship, The Mermaid, and sail north from Leringard to Krashin, through The Bear's Teeth and finally reach the northernmost continent and delve into its mysteries.

Series Will Run: Tuesday nights, at around 6:00 pm PST until maybe 9 or 10 pm PST depending on the session. Side quests may occasionally be run on weekends as necessary.

Who Can Join?: This series is open to all players, regardless of level, race, class, etc. It is desirable to attend all sessions, but I will invent ways to sneak new party members into the first few sessions as necessary. There will come a time in the series where the party will lock, but we'll cross that bridge when we come to it.

What's The Adventure Guide?: My intention for the series is for this to be a high RP series with a healthy dose of adventure and combat. However, the forecast for any given session will vary. Some sessions will have lots of combat and some very little. Some sessions will require more problem solving skills than others! Hopefully most sessions will achieve a balance of these.

Post any questions about the series here or PM me ...

Hope to see you there!

What about problem causing skills? *snickers* Just kidding!

I take it that means you're thinking about bringing Tyra? :p

ShiffDrgnhrt · « **Reply #34 on:** January 26, 2009, 10:41:43 AM »

Of course! Need someone to throw curve balls at the DMs and other Players, right?

Carillon · « **Reply #35 on:** January 27, 2009, 10:47:39 AM »

Hey guys,

Just a quick reminder that The Spirit of the North starts tonight and will probably run for at least a month. If you're planning on being a part of it, please consider signing up, as this really helps me plan for numbers.

For anyone who is going to join us, I've also set up a quest forum as promised. To join the forum, go to My Account --> Edit Profile --> Miscellaneous --> Group Memberships and select "Spirit of the North" from the options.

Hope to see you tonight!

Hi Everyone,

The link for the next session of Spirit of the North is up on the calendar. I have bumped this session's time back slightly so it will give Ouroboros time to join us, so we will be starting a half an hour later than last week. If you know in advance you will have to leave early or come late, please let me know as it helps me plan. A PM would be fine.

As a reminder, please sign up for the quest forum! We will be using this, and only a little over half of you have signed up so far. I'm giving people another day or so to request membership before I start posting things so ... yeah. Sign up!!

I think that's it for now ...

Hi Questers,

Due to an unprecedented number of absences and requests for postponement this week, Spirit of the North will be moving ahead by one week again.

My sincere apologies for the late notice, but it's no fun to run a quest when so many people who have committed to the series can't be there. I considered moving the quest to another day, but I don't think there's another day you can all make it. I will be lurking tonight instead ... so don't be surprised if an impromptu or two comes your way!
