Goodie-goodie cooperative outing
Posted: Thu Aug 15, 2013 2:59 am
I'm not sure if this really qualifies as an event, but we'll see. I will have a very rare (for me) opportunity to pretend I'm single again this weekend, with my partner and child out of town. I plan to make the most of it! Raona will be online and looking to organize a collection of (relatively) pure souls for something worthwhile starting at this time:

Raona will likely be online before and after this, but over this time window for sure. I really don't want her to sit and chat, as she can do that anytime - I'd like to take advantage of the fact I definitely won't have to quit at a moment's notice, and so can go deep into the depths of an adventure or RP, something I normally can not do.
If you want to take part, just look for Raona in the Dripping Dagger at around the time indicated above. Raona is delighted to help others with mid-level dungeons and quests, even if she's done them (though there are many she's not done yet). We'll pick something that's interesting to as many of those that show up as possible, and makes good use of the talents assembled. If the crowd is too big, we may fragment into sub-groups. You don't have to know (or have even met) Raona to take part, but she's a goodie goodie and will be uncomfortable around anyone who's not. If you are in the latter category you may want to involve yourself via a less direct route. That said, I do make two requests:
1) The last time I tried something like this (and it was a long time ago, so maybe enough people are asking "Who's Raona?" that it won't be an issue this time anyway) we got no adventuring done at all because everyone who wanted to talk with Raona pounced on the rare event of an announced time she'd be around. So please, if you want to talk with Raona - find her before or after, or send her a Magical Post or me a PM...but don't buttonhole her during this time window. It's not in Raona's persona to turn you away but I really don't get an OOC chance like this often and I don't want to spend it philosophizing.
2) The other thing that has happened in the past is that Raona seems to be the Bad Guy's favorite Good Gal - the most fun to tweak or the least dangerous to confront, or what have you. Every evil seems to come out of the woodwork and want to individually derail whatever Raona's trying to organize. I'm asking you OOCly, please, if you are evil and want to get in the way, have a plot to it. Better still, if you have a good alt and an evil one, bring your goodie to the party rather than try to derail with your evil...unless you have a really good plot idea! If you bring out your orc with the toll booth, I'll just lose it.
Thanks, hope to see some of you then!
p.s. Raona is slow and meticulous, and maps almost everything. This won't be a high-speed romp through whatever we agree to attempt, and if you are the sort to run off from the group to explore the odd shiny object you are likely to be left for dead, or at least to whatever you find.

I do enjoy RPing with Raona!
