The Long Awaited ACUS Update
I would've done this last night but I slept for 13 hours. Gee I wonder why I went and did that?

The day started with Curgoth calling to tell me he'd be late because it takes longer to drive Lizard to work then it does to get there on the bus. I would think this strange except for the fact that I've experienced it myself. So I spent more time playing around on the net. Then Curgoth arrived and we were off!
We drove for awhile had various adventures with a Strawberry-Banana Frappucino and getting lost. Then after a rousing drive through Detroit we arrived at our hotel! There was much cheering, and racing to the bathroom. Then our bladders sated we checked in and talked to people and soon I was off to my first game:
Godzilla Versus the Pattern Monster I played Caw in this game, for those of you who don't know Caw the best description I've heard of him is: Strong as an Ox and about as smart.
Godzilla was released from beneath the Earth and on a rampage towards Amber. Various Amberites and one Chaosian were dispatched to destroy him, or it. Caw got to fight zombies, and single handedly destroyed Gidra by throwing a bomb attached to a Japanese scientist into it's mouth. BOOM! We win. Well there was some other stuff that led to us winning, but it was mostly Caw.
Then there was at some point sleep. I think.


There was breakfast. And at some point after this I regained conciousness. Then there was a game!
Kill Brand Part II Based on Kill Bill and Kill Bill 2. I was playing Oshi, a 12 year old Japanese girl who's brother was killed by assassins attempting to off Random. So Oshi travels to Shaodw Tokyo to kill them all.
I was paired up with Daneil who was Random's son. We mowed through the assasins both doing our parts in the fight. My part was the actual killing while Daneil's seemed to be getting shot/stabbed/hit. So it all worked out. Oshi managed to kill 4 of the 5 people on her list, but the last, presumebly Brand, escaped. Too bad.
The really best part of this game was later I heard someone call "Hey there's the 12 year old Japanese girl who killed everyone!" And I'm fairly certain I was that girl. :)
Then there was Lunch. After that...
Nine Losers in Akron This was a fucking good game! Based on Kill Puppies For Satan, we played Satanists and indeed were encouraged to kill puppies and various other animals for Satan. I really got to work through some of my homicidal rodent leanings using squirrels and a woodchipper. I was playing Brand, the genius of the group of rednecks that were the Amber family. Some cockknockers stole dad and we had to fucking cross this shitheel called Akron to get him back. And due mostly to a naked Brand falling out of the sky we did. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. Asswipe.
Then we went to the darkest resturaunt ever for dinner with Djinn and Javenallese. I of course spent an hour looking at the menu before ordering Fish and Chips. Then it was time for Ill met...
Ill Met in Amber: As usual this game comes down to 4 hours of drinking followed by, after the slot is technically over lots more drinking. And somehow we fit some plot in there too! One of my favourite games at the Cons. I play Wrenn, I say play instead of played because it's an ongoing campaign. Though it might not be ongoing for long as I've just made Wrenn a member of Internal Affairs for the most corrupt police force in Amber. I'm gonna die! Yay! But it should at least guarantee my last few days of life will be action packed!
Then after a fairly late slot, and a movie, I went to sleep. I can't pass up Die Hard!


Woke, breakfast, muttering, the usual...
When the Queen Says, "Go and Die...": Revenge and Roses The musketeers are at it again! This time we were protecting some noblewomen from the Count's Army, Carnivorous goats, and Spanish Ninjas. I play Will who's Spyific. He's a retired spy who joined the musketeers because there were to many women disguised as men in the spycorps. We of course vanquished our foes and won the day. All for one and one for wine!
Then dinner. Then there was Curgoth's game:
No Higher Authority This game is hard to explain plot-wise. Sort of you're best fairytales and worst nightmares meet and alter each others worlds. I played Ralia the little girl with the big monsters, like Mogli in the Jungle Book if he hung with Demons. She was a cute little 10 year old who could summon monsters to work her will. Which she did alot. This was probably my fave game of the con, not only 'cause I liked the character so much but also 'cause the final story was so fun. Kudos Curgoth!
I then slept for about 2 hours, maybe a bit longer. Which is good 'cause next came...


Meh...food...walk...dress...
Slot 7: The Volunteer Slot!
I had to put the exclamation mark to make this sound exciting. It wasn't. But I don't mind the volunteering as long as it's for a good cause. And gaming is a good cause! But after that and dinner came the most horrible experience of the con.
Dude! Where's my Jewel of Judgement Part 2: Corwin and Random Go to White Castle This was my game, I'm sorry. It went well though it was really, really, really, really, really, really, disturbing. There was everything one would expect from a Dude related game: Pantsing, diarrhea, cross dressers trying to pick up niave teenagers, and the audible sound of my mind breaking. Plus I've come up for an idea for a third part: Dude! Where's My Jewel of Judgement Part 3: Dude! Who's my Student Council President?
Again I'm sorry.
To Live and Die in Texorami This is another campaign that I'm a part of. I play Caleb the undertaker. One of two undertakers in the small town of Texorami. I wasn't actually scheduled in this game, I just showed up after my game was over and still had plenty of play time. There was lots of fun, and we almost killed Dara and the game ended with Texorami under attack by lots and lots of things. That I think were shapeshifters but I'm not sure.
Then I went to bed, it was about 3am by this point. Thus endeth the con.

Then I came home and slept, oh such sleep did I do!
The end.

Once again, StB is living proof that no bad idea is left to die with dignity.

Are you actually using the word 'dignity' in conjunction with Dude? What planet are you from?
Anyways Dude Part 3 wasn't totally my idea. I think I'll blame Curgoth. Yeah this sounds about his speed.

Don't blame me! I was drunk for all parts of this game - conception, and execution!

And you know, we found out Daniel got stabbed because the GM misread which of us had the bad stuff... and it still felt exactly correct.

All I can say is I did my part. Mostly by intercepting projectiles with my manly, 30-year-old body parts, while your 12-year-old girly body parts ripped other people into tiny pieces.

It's good to have a role. Sigh.
