Adventure! Stuff to know.

I came to realize I was quite late in mentioning the DnD Adventures of our new group from the Friday before last.

As our introduction to each other's characters and the "new to our characters" world of Neverwinter, the Drow (Phil) was being unjustly detained simply for being a Drow. The townsfolk seemed displeased with the actions of the obviously corrupt guards and were so distracted as he fought back that they failed to notice the contents of their purses going missing as the Human/Were-rat (Nic) made his way around the crowd. The Human, Goliath (Chris), Bugbear (Gir), Half-Elf (Jymm), Deva (Sarah), and my Pixie all eventually joined the fray. My pixie, Larkspur, made an impression... on the ground... multiple times... as he fell unconscious around 2-3 times in our first fight. The Goliath has now decided he needs protecting and has taken the duty upon himself apparently. Larkspur isn't sure whether to be amused or offended at the moment. Though as the player I am amused. :) At this point we met Lord Neverember who thanked us for dealing with the corrupt guards and requested that we help him with a few matters. We chose to travel to Helm's Hold. When we reached the town, most of us stayed at the inn for the night. Meanwhile, the Half-Elf found the cathedral and the beautiful priestess there to be quite welcoming. Though when he rejoined us in the morning he seemed to have fallen ill...

We ended up not playing this week due to our DM sleeping. When he finally woke up none of us were in a playing mood so we watched a few good movies. First, a newbie on the block, Tucker & Dale vs Evil. I don't want to spoil anything so I can't say why this is such an awesome movie but please take my word on it. It's on Netflix currently. We followed that up with everyone's favorite Christmas movie, Die Hard. :D And that pretty much wrapped up the night.
