| Apocalypse I-b - The Retreat
|
2020 July 12th
|
10... 9... 8...
The old year is coming to an end. Some players are gathered in Ezzo Empire squares. There are no guilds here. Only people celebrating the coming of a new year. Comraderie.
7... 6... 5...
The excitement rises with each number subtracted. People hold eachother by the shoulders, smiling up at the enormous letters displayed in the skies by the administration. Other people are at various New Year events. A group of Grunty Races try to make it over the finish line in time to win their prize!
4... 3... 2...
The visual display grows dim for a moment. Someone calls out about a strange building appearing at the edge of Lia Fail. A massive tower on its side? Something... then, a little flicker. And then... a sound.
A single tone.

As all Ezzo Empire members realize they are in their Kingdom of origin, gathered at the center of the city...
As something is happening in the skies. Someone running towards them.
OOC This is an Ezzo Empire only event.

| Apocalypse II-B - Westward
|
2020 July 13th
|
The Ezzo Team is stuck on Ezzo, unable to teleport, and can't risk perishing with Ezzo Empire coming apart at the seams. As such, the team journeys on, led by the mysterious Bandit King, with a singular mission. To make it to the 'Install Port' in order to 'Install' a mysterious Shard carried by the black Peko riding male.
|
| Apocalypse III-B - Southern Peak
|
2020 July 14th
|
The Ezzo Team arrives at the Southern Tip of the Ezzo Empire, along with the Bandit King. Having left a large swatch of the Adventurers and Landers behind to catch up, they ride ahead in order to 'Install' a mysterious Shard carried by the black Peko riding male. They are however on a timer, as the corruption of the land seems to be speeding up.

|
2020 July 14th

Nureha and the first wave of ships arrive in Ezzo to pick up those still in the afflicted region.
|
| The First Respawn
|
2020 July 15th
|
The first PC death, appearing at the Church in Carmina Gadelica, the Town of Beginnings. There might be curiosity? Information to gather? What happens after death? So many questions and more.
|
| Floor 1: The First Push
|
2020 July 18th
|
Brave guilds, parties and soloers have been slowly poking at the first floor of Aincrad Tower. Progress has been slow due to uncertainty, low levels and a desire to avoid testing the Death theory. A wall has finally been hit where a larger push will be required to overcome it. As such, a strong, coordinated charge into the floor has been organized. Notices have been made. All Adventurers are invited.
Hellooooooo Adventurers! This is your host Misa Takayama. I'm going to be running a scene for the first major push into floor 1 of Aincrad Tower. THIS IS NOT THE FLOOR BOSS FIGHT. That will be coming later. But there will be fighting of mobs. EVERYONE IS INVITED. But I highly encourage to-be-eventually-formed Scale Emblem Alliance members to join in. It'll be a good hook for the formation of the guilds and subsequent alliance. After all, our whole alliance is basically focused on clearing the tower. But as I said, everyone is invited. I'm sure the majority of you have some reason to challenge the tower and the mobs inside.
It's unlikely to be card combat as I expect numbers to be too high for that... Though if the numbers do turn out to be small, I'm certainly happy to give a go at bossing in the card system. But I will try and come up with things to at least use dice rolls for.
I hope people will enjoy this!

| Apocalypse IV - Rescue
|
2020 July 19th
|
With some of the people of Ezzo already getting off of Ezzo, thanks to the hurried preparations of various Adventurers, more money is being put towards getting even more off of the island. But with the constant movement of ships, people have started to draw attention from things that lurk Beneath the Waters...

| Ghosts of Alne
|
2020 July 22nd
|
Silent apparitions stalk the streets of Alne. Ghostly phenomena are whispered of but rarely verified. In the dead quiet of the city spread beneath Aincrad Tower, food appears on tables without a hand to serve them. Sounds echo strangely while light flickers in the heart of empty buildings.
There is a story to be told here.
Interested parties are invited to investigate the southern reaches of the City of Ash for a chance to glimpse the mystery running throughout, while Nureha and her hand-picked scouts have a secondary purpose to their searching, running along the rooftops and slipping through the alleyways as they search the vast abandoned reaches for a place to call home.
OOC Note: Hello, folks! This will most likely be a Spooky Investigation and Random Poking things scene. Everyone is invited as Plant Hwyaden cruises Totally Not Silent Hill for a place to bed down for the night (hopefully with softer beds than the inn. Those things are giving me a crick in the neck.)
To Adventure!

Twenty four hours. Twenty four hours have passed since the death of the Adventurer's husband in Alne. The counter has passed down, even with its disfigured and bugged looking display...
Until finally, they resurrect at the Temple in the City of Beginnings. His wife waiting for him.
The man looks confused as she hugs him, pressing at her shoulders, pushing her away.

| Ship to Ninetails Dominion
|
2020 August 10th
|
As a major hub of trade ships regularly sail to and from the Ninetails Dominion. Frequently adventurers can be found aboard these ships for a variety of reasons. Diplomatic efforts, trade merchants, hired guards from the Hunters Guild, or simply to travel and see what Yamato has to offer. Recently a giant hourglass has been seen counting down in Dun Loireag, the capital of the Ninetails Dominion, and this has led to many adventurers travelling there to research it or prepare for what is rumored to be a major event of some kind.
((OOC: This is a casual social scene for those that want to RP travelling to the Ninetails Dominion.))

Xander wants to continue to see just how intelligent the Goblins are and if he can do a trade with them. Uta may have decided to go along to give the Goblins some Valentine's cheer.
This does not go as planned and they both may need some help as they get chased by the zerg of Goblins.
Yep. Just another day!
OOC - Will be using the Goblin NPC, though depending on how many show up, will depend if we will do concept rolling or actual combat, since I know that the boss mechanic is kinda broken past a particular point.

2021 February 13th

The goblins are proving to be a problem on the fifth floor, making travel between the fourth and sixth an issue. While more adventurers have been called to arms to help deal with the situation, is it really enough?
What about those who go scouting to the sixth floor, can they make it back safely to safer floors below?
One such group finds out the hard way, that even with experience on their side. You can't ever let your guard down around goblins.
(( Scale Focused, others are welcome though. Boss fight will be happening. ))

| Duty Session 264: Karluin Reclamation - Keep
|
2021 April 20th
|
With the goblin forces largely cleared out of the bulk of Karluin Castle Town, and without any means of penetrating the fortress' mysterious underground yet, the reclamation effort has now moved towards taking back the main keep at the city's easternmost side. But with the goblins backed into a corner, and their new leader surely commanding the keep's defenses personally, reclaiming the citadel will by no means be a small task. Still, the quest to clear Karluin at the Hunters Guild remains open, with a new list of terms promising salvage rights of the valuable loot hidden away within the castle's ancient coffers.
Difficulty: Hard
Rec. Party: 5+
Rewards: 4
World Rewards: Progress on freeing Karluin

2021 November 28th

The Holy Empire Westelande has a proud tradition, the Trial of Honor, where young people go into a nest, and those that come out have proven themselves to be stout-hearted and valorous. But recently, something has happened. It seems that somehow, giant ants have colonized Sher Kar - The Sher Kar nesting areas underground, and they are a threat to both Sher Kar - The Sher Kar and the Westelanders as well. So, a hunt has been organized through the Guild to cull these ants, so the ceremony can be held in its accustomed gravity. This is an obsidian-level quest for three or more offered through the Guild, Completion will make the site of Sher Kar - The Sher Kar ritual less dangerous to the Landers who have used it for their coming of age tradition for many years.
Difficulty: Moderate
Rec. Party: 3+
Rewards: 2
World Rewards: Westeland's gratitude.
