GM: Hope everyone had a great Christmas and Holiday season?
Hope santa got you everything you wanted. Hope everyone
has a great new years! Don't party too hard!
GM: I have completed IBT actions for the new player. Since
I will be posting his encounters below its ok to say
his name now - Raban. When adventure starts I'll bring
him in but some have already encountered him like
Damon, Cholan and Z'leyra. Others may have seen him
as he's rather unique in height and size. Usually he is
the one walking down the street and all others cross
to the other side. :) With his IBT completed that's
a boost of 18% for a current progress of 89% for
IBT plans. With 93% for CP and 89% for IBT that
gives us a total progress of 91%. I now just got
Unali's IBT action so will be working on hers next
in the next few days. Still not heard from Strie'bog
and heard from Arawn but will wait for actions.
Just leaves Unali, Arawn and Strie'bog and we can begin.
Actions? Comments?
Next update Wednesday... 1/02/08
GM: Lucky the Dwarves are drunk tonight so no jokes from
them. But here are Raban's encounters. Players

item only. Rumors and other details may piece some

for Xian later. At about 10:!5pm Raban heads to his Inn for the
night He notices 3 turns the corner and they are city guards.
In the dim light Raban is not seen but Raban recognizes the man
he hurt 5 weeks prior. As the guards pass by the guard also
recognizes Raban and pulls his sword. Raban knows these are
city guards but are likely on the payroll of some merchant and
their loyalties lie there. Raban knows he likely won't get
anywhere reporting these guards. In a blur Raban punches one
guard in the chest and throws the guard down tumbling the
boardwalk. Both guards swing their swords but Raban is able
to duck and weave away from the swords. Raban swings on another
guard but fails to hit. Both guards also fail to hit. Again
all three fail to hit each other. Raban grabs the right arm of
one guard and yanks his sword away from him at the same time
kicking him away. Now armed its Raban versus the vengeful guard.
The angry guard swipes a cut across the forehead of Raban drawing
blood missing eyes by half a inch. Raban thrusts and cuts the
angry guard's right arm badly and then punches the man knocking
him down and out. The second guard who had his sword yanked out
comes charging but Raban moves to the side and then bashed him
in the back of the head knocking him out. With a minor wound on
his forehead he looks down at the 3 unconscious guards. No one
is around he could kill them but that is not his way. He drops
the sword and runs off to his tavern. Thinking that maybe its
time to leave Sivas with heat on his back?
