Twilight Recovery

          by Torin

Today's Open Hunt went to the Twilight area of Metz. At first we had several healers, but Suu'ub III and Jeepers left early. We hunted the entry for a while, but then an Ancient Greymyr cut short our fun. Only Terise and I were standing. We huddled in a corner and eventually got almost everyone up. It was good to be able to walk home this time.

Return from Gloaming

          by Torin

Today's open hunt took us back to Metz. Slayer called directions for the first half. We met Shiner and Pun'isher later, and Slayer handed over the lead to Shiner.


We went into the Gloaming caves with the idea that Shiner would lead us through the river path and save us a long walk home. However, there was a jam at the path so most of us didn't make it. Those of us left behind started back the long way, and Shiner got Lorikeet to join him on a run toward us from the beach.

We got into trouble on the narrow rocky snell next to the jungle. A few of us survived behind a kudzu wall until Lori and Shiner arrived. Once recovered, we tried the river path again, with more success that time.

Torin Enters 7th Circle

          by Torin

I finally passed the test! I spent more time in 6th Circle than some 7th Circle fighters have been in Puddleby. Apart from not hunting nearly as much as they do, my 270 fell blade ranks do me little good in the test. The FB helps me a lot on real hunts though, so I have no regrets.

Waterfall Disaster

          by Torin

At the Open Hunt (every Sunday at 11:30 AM Pacific), our group escorted Zeitgeist to Pathfinding Book 3. I was thinking of going to Metz, but many people wanted to stay in the area and hunt the first few parts of the Pitch Caves. Unfortunately our runner-and-zu setup failed, and a backspawn in the Waterfall snell doomed most of the ones who managed to get out. I asked for a rescue a couple of times, and many of us departed to help the others. After several attempts, we managed to get almost everyone back to town. Thanks to everyone who came, for the hunt and/or the rescue.

Natas, by Kisa

          by Torin

Another great portrait by Kisa! She really captured Natas! (OOC: It reminds me of Wolverine of the X-Men.) Go see the full size portrait, and then read the rest of Kisa's sketchbook. I laugh every time I visit her scroll!

Deadly Sarra

          by Torin

PAG went to Sarra today. It was a gamble, and we knew it. Although we had plenty of talent with us, we weren't able to kill fast enough. Between the acid cobras and the dinosaurs, the healers had a hard time keeping us healthy. Overwhelmed by spawns ahead of us and behind us, we made a desperate dash for the exit, but to no avail.

          by Torin

Kisa recently posted a portrait of J'jh and J'nder. Check it out, and take a look at the rest of her sketchbook too. Kisa has a great sense of humor that comes across in her fun and cute doodles. Tuska Kisa!

Jades

          by Torin

After the Puddleby Players' performance, we had an open hunt at Jade Noids. In all, roughly 20 people with a wide range of skills showed up. The venue seemed to be good for a mixed group. The low/mid fighters hit the Jades, and the noids in the third cave were a challenge for the higher level fighters. I hope the word gets out that an open hunt on Sundays will be a regular event.
