Update

Lessee.... Week updates are kinda hard sometimes, when you're in that day-to-day swing.

Tuesday was my lazy day. The dog training classes were postponed until today, so I stayed at home and played on the 'puter. I've discovered that I still don't really care for computer games, so what I'm going to end up doing is getting the walk-through just so I can watch the story unfold. So I guess it's going to be more like an interactive movie. :P

Wednesday was Matt's VtR game. Much fun. Warning! Gamer nerd talk! Ok, lessee, what is everyone playing? narkeys is a Ventrue Invictus; finari is a Daeva Invictus; dogdoolb is a Mekhet Invictus (Hm. There's a theme there); sahve is a Mekhet Lancea Sanctum; and my character is a Ventrue Lancea Sanctum. Our game is primarily set in New Orleans, which is the basic setting from the core Requiem book.

Our coterie is called En Passant, and were temporarily in Baton Rouge, which apparently is a town controlled by Belial's Brood. When they attacked us in our hotel, my poor lil vampire hid in the closet. Not only does she not have any physical abilities beyond Resilience, but she has the vice of Sloth. Hehe. Anyway, she only came out when one of her friends got staked (eep!). She pulled the stake out, then spent the rest of the time taking her dice penalty and shot her 9mm. Anyway, the fight was resolved, and we beat feet out of town and back to New Orleans.

Ok, back to normal...

Thursday evening I went from work to finari's house with the pooch. We had our nice meandering walk (I love those walks), then tried unsuccessfully to log into WoW. Since we couldn't WoW, we watched Grease. Hehe. I forgot how risqué that movie is, heh. I thoroughly enjoyed myself.

Friday evening, we played D&D up at work in the breakroom. Again much fun was had. It was our friend Bob's birthday, and lo and behold, his character, a paladin, charged the big evil nasty and died. Splat! Happy Birthday! Heh.

Saturday morning, I woke up late and played WoW. Got my hunter to 20. That evening thewolfhound and I went to a movie. Sunday was nice and relaxed with computer games and videos.

Yesterday, I set some goals for 2005. We'll see how that goes. ^_^ Tonight, dog training class with Taltos!

D&D nerd stuff....

Heh. When thewolfhound asked me what I wanted to play in his Forgotten Realms D&D campaign, I was unsure. I knew I wanted to play a spell caster but not sure what to actually make.

So, I created a monster. I asked thewolfhound to twink me out.

The end goal will be a Mystic Theurge out of the DMG. However, where the twinkiness comes in to play are the classes she has before she gets Mystic Theurge at level 12.

She started out with three levels of Paladin, and one level of Favored Soul (we started at 4th level). At level 8, she has Paladin 3, Favored Soul 3, and Sorcerer 2. Favored Soul is found in the Complete Divine, and it is the divine caster's equivalent to the Sorcerer. As an ex-Paladin who maintains her vows, she gets her Charisma modifier to her saves. As both a Sorcerer and Favored Soul, she gets her Charisma modifier to her spell DCs, as well as her spells per day. Heh. I only have to raise my Charisma, which is 22 at level 8.

Anyway, she will never have the versitility of a true cleric or wizard. Her spell list will always be limited, as she has to permanently chose her spells. However, she will never have to actually prepare them and will be able to cast them all on the fly.

Oh, and to make role-play interesting, she's an ex-Paladin and currently Favored Soul of Sune, the goddess of Love, Beauty and Passion. So if the char hist is kind of .... fluffy, that's why. ^_~ Mwahahahahah!

Coloring....

I have had more comments about my hair today than I've had in a long while. The most common question was "Did you re-dye your hair?" I have to laugh.

I re-dyed my hair on January 7, over two weeks ago. I do have a theory, however, and it is this: I am not wearing my glasses today, and my hair is down. I think my black hair makes my eyes seem more blue, and the fact that I am not wearing glasses accentuates this. Hence, there is something different about me and it must be my hair, right? ^_^

Heh.

I really do like having black hair....
