Hydaelyn Role-Players

Thanks for hosting this guys, had a blast even if the group did just going around picking up things Merri "lost". It made for a lot of fun and even educational for me as I now know where the Drake tribe is located so will be tweeking U'zhan a bit. It is a shame no one took a screen cap of those worms though, think we were all too busy going "RWAR! DIE DIE DIE OHGODDONTEATME!!!!"

Thanks for the event. Even if it was more than a bit overwhelming for someone who rps for the first time in an mmo. Just the sheer amount of people...
I wasn't really happy with my character's performance, but let's say she had a bad day and wasn't in the mood for puzzles and riddles. Or confusing Miqo'te ;>

Looking forward to any other events you might come up with!

OMG, so I'm not the only person who does this!


I actually started doing it because it lagged the hell out of my PC while raiding in EQ2, and just kinda stuck with it. In some games, it doesn't work well because people look too similar, so I'd run past someone not realising who they were; that's not been as huge an issue in recent years though.

HAHA finally someone who understands, my friend who plays wow keeps his on all the time and it just makes the screen so cluttered.  As long as I can target people I'm happy and its good because your character moves their head to look at the other player so I like to think of it as the character is actively thinking and studying the person to try and remember

I'm glad to hear at least some of you had fun! I'm sorry to everyone who had a hectic time at the beginning, I know I certainly was having one @_@! To those who stuck around, I love you. To those who stuck around and had fun, I'm so happy! /sob ; ;! I have... four pictures.

The beginning! Shameless self picture thing. Ah, the calm before the storm.


I completely missed pictures of the middle : x. Here's group three arriving at the meeting point after exploration!


Hanging out at Crescent Cove. What happened to the moon? Iono.


We found a bar and I tortured some people with my razor wit(?).

I made it into a screenshot! The orange speck behind Dogberry's head! SUCCESS!

Thank you for the event Blue Skies I had fun! I got to try out Kari's personality for the first time which helped build the character a bit more. Like a few others I did get lost in at the start with all the text I had to change a few settings but in the end it worked out! I hope there will be more events later on. And even though I had a really crappy start to the day that event made things better so thank you once more!

Thank you very much to Merri, Xenedra, Fearless, and everyone who came. It's not often that you see so many roleplayers together in one place, and it's always a madhouse! Thankfully we were split up into groups, so it wasn't hectic for long, and before I knew it I was having a blast (it's hard to have fun when your character is shy, after all).

I'm afraid I don't have a lot of screenshots of my own (just the one actually) which I really regret, because Fearless and I had some truly wonderful moments.


Of course, at this point quite a lot of people had already left, but it was still quite a crowd. If there's this much of a turnout in a closed beta, I can't wait to see how many people we can get together once open beta starts!

HAHAH The black shadow on the moon was mentioned but when we looked most couldn't see anything, I thought someone was trying to start some interesting RP given they said it in chat.  My apology girl with the glasses and the black hair but your name escapes me atm, you are stood right next to me in the pic.

That was fun! Thanks to everyone in Group 2 who put up with my random {frantic...} leading of the group. ((Kass had no idea she was doing til she was handed the first clue)) I do have a few screen shots of the event...none from the middle, sadly. I was too busy flailing my hands trying to keep everyone entertained.


The calm before the storm

Thanks for hosting the event! Got to meet a lot of people and slowly get back into the swing of RP'ing. While I wasn't much help with the riddles in Xenedra's group, the adventure was very fun. Got to see a few places I haven't been to yet. Have to say I had the most fun when all the groups got together at the dock and later the bar in Vesper Bay.

P.S. - Dotoro was a savior. Xenedra forced us to sing and dance, we had no choice! Hahaha =P

Like the first one, this event was a blast. And, like the first one, having been on the organizing side of events like these in previous games, I want to dole out a huge helping of THANK YOU, and YOU'RE AMAZING to the folks who ran and organized this thing. Hectic, is I think, putting it lightly.

I had a rough time at first getting my grips with how fast the chat was scrolling due to all the people talking and enjoying themselves but once things died down a little and I got used to it, I started to get into the swing of things.

No pictures to share unfortunately but I do spot Rendal in a few of those! :D
