"Noblesse Oblige" June Game Event Review

[Leit Khan]

13 or 14 years ago I stepped into my first Underworld LARP game as a level 1 Templar, super green, scared as hell and so excited to play that I thought I would pee myself. This weekend you gave me that same exact experience. I was such a noob all over. I'm not even kidding. My whole weekend consisted of:
"Eeeee my first monster!!"
"Eeee my first loot"
"Eeeee my first spider kill"
"Eeeeee my first stupid decision"

I completely forgot all the things I should have known how to do like the fact that I could reset my skills (skill), don't charge into battle alone, and that sometimes monsters are waiting in your camp for you to return. I distinctly remember walking into Emerald Camp alone to go drop off some armour, getting half way to my tent then suddenly realizing I was IG and there could be Murkers hiding in the bushes. I instantly got scared and defensive and started scanning the dark parts of the our camp as adrenaline coursed through my body. I had this stupid grin on my face the whole weekend.

So much thanks to the Shaper team for running an amazing event and Guild of Underworld. You all really nailed down what an UW event should be.

I have no cons

Pros:
- All NPC's I fought, fought well. I saw a lot of them dumb down their fighting ability because their role required it
- Lord Vinters party was so much fun. I was so IG drunk that I think I became OOG drunk. I had a hard time getting IG sober
- Punching out Einher for putting his arm around my date. I'm so lucky he didn't punch me back. I would have been on my ass
- Spider cave songs
- Getting a chance to PC again with Weasel. I missed that so much
- Having Nicole as my IG sister. Best decision ever. So much shenanigans
- Defeating anything with an inflated sense of confidence and BRAVADO!
- NPC Costume was top notch. I felt the sting of pride and feel I need to step up my game a bit in Jericho
- Drunken Sailors (I'm so sorry)
- The funeral rites of the Minotaur people. Mmmm soup
- "Don't chase them, replace them!" (works for dates who run off with Einher and friends who go in the spider cave)

So much more. I could write this post for days. Can't wait for next event

My favourite line

Minitaur Pat - I was eaten whole by a giant frog
Aja Rebecca - I don't understand, how do you eat a Minotaur?
Nicole - Usually I just put them between two pieces of bread
