Dascombe 234 Posted July 14, 2019 (edited) Where: Ruined twilight encampment west of Haven When: Wednesday 17th July 8pm server-time Who: Anyone on a non-hostile level with Haven due to proximity of Haven forward base camp Event Type: NPC clearance GM Assistance: Not essential but would be appreciated for highlighting any burrows present or if one sand reaver looks like its going to morph (see objectives below) In the late of night due west of Haven, the guards keeping watch over the ruins of the Twilight camp would become familiar with the eerie clicking and skittering noises that now permeated the night as well as the day Sand Reavers. Horrific multi-legged monstrosities with pincers capable of cleaving an Alliance steam tank in two and with chintenous plating as strong as the aforementioned tank, these things are a challange and not to be taken lightly. Sat on a rocky outcrop looking over the skittering beasts was Baron West, a bowl of hot stew bubbling beside him on a low campfire with its flame concealed from any would-be onlookers "Look at them, skittering around consuming corpses of cultists... and after what happened that one time at Drustgarde all those months ago I know that if these things are left undisturbed one of them will morph into a queen and that is when shit will -truely- hit the proverbial Gnomish fan... especially when it lays a clutch of thousands..." He sits back for a moment, memories of the Sand Reaver Siege of Drustgarde came flashing back to him.... He looks eagerly and carefully at rocks as the moon catches their marble tops and the light of the moon reflects off the still Doldrums sea... "one... two.... three... four" he mutters, counting the armoured killing machines with distain He sighs deeply, putting out the fire and pouring the stew into a corked flask before sliding down a vine from his concealed position and skulking off back to Haven "At least Drustgarde were prepared when a Queen Sand Reaver appeared on their doorstep and had a huge number of troops and heroes there, I somehow think that Haven would be wholly unprepared for such a battle... best call in the troops I reckon..."

Dascombe 234 Posted July 20, 2019 Bit of a delay but cheers for the event folks! Fun though it was, none of the objectives were completed, in fact we may have failed to preemptively destroy the biggest threat now known to Opej'nor! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
