Current events
This page is for discussion of stuff related to the game coming up this week, no matter when that actually is. For instance, we can all assume Nate isnt coming for some lame reason and that Ed is sick of pizza and is bringing teriyaki or some other crap. They can post something here if that happens to be untrue.

Attendance and Food Preference
12/12/08
--Brandon 16:21, 8 December 2008 (MST) I might have to miss this Friday, or at least miss part of it. I am hosting guests this weekend, and I thought that they were coming in late Friday, but it turns out that they are coming in late Thursday. But, they may be going to see the Nutcracker on Friday, which would mean I would still be able to make it to most of gaming. I'll let you know as I know.

Edmiao let me guess, big grandfather flame wants us to find Ixymion
--Brandon 16:20, 8 December 2008 (MST) Um, basically, yes, if by "find" you mean "find and free from entrapment". Basically, we had a choice between that and fetching the Ruby Shield for grandfather flame. We - again by Gabe's prompting - decided on dealing with the dragon. I guess that he thought we should mess with an even more powerful dragon ; ). I'm still not sure of the wisdom of the decision, but, then again, I'm not sure that wisdom is possible in choosing between two essentially impossible tasks.
BEN: there was a third option that was suggested: finding the thing Oryxys "most desires". That was too vague and therefore risky for the characters.
Edmiao oh, jeez. sorry i wasn't there. cus the thing Oryxys "most desires" is Aefra. zoing.
BEN: unfortunately, what a dragon "most desires" and "wants to eat" are often the same thing. He actually almost ate brandon.
--Brandon 17:07, 8 December 2008 (MST) Lucky for him he didn't try. He totally would've gotten a spear stuck in his ass, from the *inside*.
--Matts - It's obvious that what he most desires is a high-quality bridge.
BEN: too bad you weren't there to suggest it...*maybe* that would be correct. The problem really was that the dragon indicated he himself wasn't sure what that thing might be.
Edmiao maybe we should work on this "most desires" angle. seems like unleashing the most powerful dragon ever that will likely topple countries and start wars might be in the category of "bad". what's the deal with the ruby shield?
BEN: If you guys feel like the Ixymion details are things your character(s) would have known (some of it certainly qualifies as "common knowledge", like the story of tom the fool), and you think it would have changed your decision, we can trade out this choice for another if y'all think that is what you would have done...it won't really affect what has happened since, although the sooner I know what the plan is, the better.
