GM SHIT DO NOTT READ

[03:50] <Liven_Up> Hey there, hiya!
[03:50] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Heyo my zebra gay doctor friend
[03:50] <Liven_Up> So, you're dead, huh? That sucks.... or are you???
[03:51] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> I feel sort of dead
[03:51] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> But also lots of pain
[03:51] <Liven_Up> Well this mission to see if you are or not... your thoughts on it?
[03:51] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> >writing out a horrific near death scene
[03:51] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> I've got some ideas for it
[03:51] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> And multi-GM?
[03:51] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> It will be wonderful madness
[03:51] <Liven_Up> That's what I was thinking
[03:52] <Liven_Up> I'd be more than willing to run part of it
[03:53] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Fuck, I would really need to write this shit
[03:53] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> I'm not sure I can do that in time
[03:54] <Liven_Up> Well I can start it off and give you time. I've GMed for big groups before.
[03:54] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> I'd need to at least write a summary of what the ghost woods and the Others are
[03:55] <Liven_Up> And I'd neeed a bit of the setting. But give me a, hell, give me a couple of hours and I can come up with a cray-cray ass adventure for us
[03:55] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> I'd appreciate help since I am time and sleep starved
[03:55] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Basic run down: The ghost forest is the realm of the fey
[03:55] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> The Others are the LeShay
[03:56] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> from irish mythology
[03:56] <Liven_Up> Alright, go on...
[03:56] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> And they are just so fucked up you don't even
[03:57] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Laws of physics or logic do not apply
[03:57] <Liven_Up> Now when you say fucked, you mean to them, yes?
[03:57] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Discord is a relatively sane fey in my eyes
[03:57] <Liven_Up> Ah, got it
[03:57] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Their concepts of morality, life, death, reality even are comlpetely alien to us
[03:57] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> they are vastly unpredictable
[03:58] <Liven_Up> Go on...
[03:58] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> The normal thing to do is simply DO NOT FUCK WITH THE FEY
[03:59] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Do not threaten them, do not give them presents
[03:59] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Keep away and pray to god they leave you alone
[03:59] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> The realm of the fey is similarly vastly alien
[03:59] <Liven_Up> So they pretty much do their own thing, and if you don't fuck with them they may not fuck with you. Or they may. Depends on what socks they're wearing
[04:00] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Laws of logic, geometry and time do not apply
[04:00] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Exactly
[04:00] <Liven_Up> Now, if they DO fuck with you, then what? What do they do, how do they act?
[04:00] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> It can be anything and depends on the Fey
[04:00] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> The LeShay, who are pretty much the noblemen of fey, will absolutely murder your shit
[04:01] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> If they find you uninteresting or meddling
[04:01] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> There are many lesser and greater fey
[04:01] <Liven_Up> So basically at random points see if they want to kill us
[04:02] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> The lesser ones mostly do mischieve, mischieve including things like pulling little children into the water to watch them drown
[04:02] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> You shouldn't encounter the LeShay
[04:02] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> They don't care for mortals really
[04:02] <Liven_Up> Got it
[04:03] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> My plan is actually that the LeShay saved me
[04:03] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> For three reasons
[04:03] <Liven_Up> Ohhhhh okay
[04:03] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> First, my family irl is said to be cursed/blessed by the LeShay
[04:03] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Second, they enjoy mortals who are artistic, witty and heroic
[04:03] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Third, they do what they want
[04:04] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> They probably will want some form of payment
[04:04] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Still ironing out the details
[04:04] <Liven_Up> Alright. So, basically for this first part, lots of fey, the LeShay will be a presence but not directly interfere...
[04:04] <Liven_Up> How alive are you? Like, on a scale from chillaxing to on last breath
[04:04] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> I'd do a scene of the "Wild Hunt"
[04:05] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> A ghostly barrage of huntsman chasing after an ethereal game
[04:05] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> It's the LeShay's sport so to speak
[04:05] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Right now?
[04:05] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Organs-in-hands wounded
[04:05] <Liven_Up> Ouchies
[04:06] <Liven_Up> So put in a thing with basically a ghostly hunt. The hunters, what kind of race? And the prey, sentient or non?
[04:06] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> But I did think of an interesting idea why I would be alive and kicking when you arive
[04:06] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> The Hunters are the LeShay
[04:06] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> I should explain what they look like
[04:06] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Ever seen a Grey Alien?
[04:06] <Liven_Up> The only image of them I have is from D&D
[04:06] <Liven_Up> And yes
[04:07] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Imagine that, but large and muscular
[04:07] <Liven_Up> http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.wizards.com/dnd/images/EPIC_Gallery/Gallery5a/44182_C5_leShay.jpg&imgrefurl=http://community.wizards.com/go/thread/view/75882/19780622/Confused_with_Fey?pg%3D4&h=596&w=400&sz=220&tbnid=6U4HABQKppxd2M:&tbnh=90&tbnw=60&zoom=1&usg=__WUduqJ_A_O9PN9z6dD5GNtdlr40=&docid=rGKCOJ8IKtaahM&sa=X&ei=u2XeUerYPKLC4AOCmoGgCA&ved=0CEcQ9QEwAg&dur=159
[04:07] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> And the D&D imagine is sort of ok
[04:07] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> but really, the LeShay are MUCH freakier
[04:07] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Dead black, huge eyes, distended long body parts
[04:07] <Liven_Up> Gots yea
[04:08] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Funny fact:
[04:08] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> The "alien abduction syndrome", where people are abducted by grey aliens and such, actually date back to BC times
[04:08] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> There are reports of eerily similar encounters in Ireland and England from 500BC
[04:08] <Liven_Up> I see what you're getting at
[04:09] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Back then, they were assumed to be the fey abducting them
[04:09] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> So yea
[04:09] <Liven_Up> Before we go on, how long do you expect this to take? Just saying, because if it isn't too long I can GM it myself
[04:10] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> My plan was the group splits up to different GMs that run different encounters
[04:10] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Only one finding Lucy
[04:10] <Liven_Up> Ah, I see. And which one would that be? Determined at random?
[04:10] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> I'd shamelessly say that should be my grouü
[04:10] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> *group
[04:11] <Liven_Up> I'd shamelessly agree
[04:11] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> It would just be to get everyone involved
[04:11] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Make it a big community event
[04:12] <Liven_Up> Oh very much yes
[04:12] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Damn, why didn't this happen on a weekend?
[04:12] <Liven_Up> Ture...
[04:12] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> We could shamelessly delay it a day...
[04:12] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Write an actually good adventure
[04:13] <Liven_Up> Tomorrow can be IC town set up then
[04:13] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> One day of preparations, Friday night super adventure?
[04:13] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> That sounds fucking amazing
[04:14] <Liven_Up> Wait... I have a baseball game to go to on Friday and I don't know when I'll be back.... FUCK
[04:14] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Shit
[04:14] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Any estimates?
[04:14] <Liven_Up> And I work every week end, but I'm back around the time I was back tonight. And, I want to say... like... 10 EST
[04:15] <Liven_Up> Maybe 11
[04:15] <Liven_Up> PM
[04:15] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> fuck
[04:15] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Yea that's kinda late
[04:16] <Liven_Up> I mean, I'll have my phone and can work from that...
[04:16] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> We should organize the GMs and see when they have time
[04:16] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> GMing from a phone at a baseball game?
[04:16] <Liven_Up> True. When one group runs the other need not. And I've done weirder things.
[04:17] <Liven_Up> So who will GM it?
[04:18] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> As I said, I'd love multi GM
[04:18] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> So I don't have to preclude people from playingh
[04:18] <Liven_Up> Sorry, mean who ELSE will be GMing, my bad
[04:19] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Well, me of course, maybe Chere and maybe High TIde
[04:20] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Not sure
[04:21] <Liven_Up> Considering we'll have a group of about 14-20, that sounds good.
[04:21] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Eh, chren can't GM before 8PM EST
[04:21] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> No idea about High, he left
[04:21] <Liven_Up> Because of work nor can I. But I think that if it's around this time, you me anc Chere should be able to take care of this.
[04:22] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Welp, fuck sleep
[04:22] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> I'll do it
[04:23] <Liven_Up> I don't work until the evening, so I'm always up around this time.
[04:24] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Well then, so it's official
[04:24] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> You me and Chere, maybe High
[04:24] <Liven_Up> I do have one request
[04:24] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Yes?
[04:25] <Liven_Up> Myself and Chere, since we're DMing it OOC and heading the expedition IC, get to be in the group that finda ya
[04:25] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Ooh, don't you think that will be really tough on ya?
[04:26] <Liven_Up> How so?
[04:26] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Switching between chats and such
[04:26] <Liven_Up> Right now I have 6 IRC channles open, 3 Instant messaginc cliants, two screens, AND I'm watching Scrubs.
[04:27] <Liven_Up> That ain't NOTHIN
[04:27] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Hah, ok
[04:27] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> That's a deal I'll gladly accept
[04:27] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Thanks for GMing this
[04:27] <Liven_Up> I LOVE GMing
[04:28] <Liven_Up> Now, what's the combat/exploration/Roleplay/story ratio?
[04:28] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> I'd say 10/30/50/10
[04:28] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Or so
[04:29] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> I am hesitant with story other than my own
[04:29] <Liven_Up> Oh no, that's perfect!
[04:29] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> You can really go all out with "mystical twilight world" on the exploration
[04:30] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> I should read some more ye olde literature for ideas
[04:30]  * Liven_Up gets an evil grin
[04:31] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Liking the looks of that
[04:31] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Also a plot twist I thought about:
[04:31] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Time runs 7 times faster down there, meaning Lucyne was down there for a week
[04:32] <Liven_Up> Oh I love that shit! Like how when liven was KOed and had his spiritual journey it was a month in his head but only a day on the outside.
[04:32] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Sounds like you are just the man for this adventure
[04:33] <Liven_Up> You know it
[04:33] <Liven_Up> Now, one more thing...
[04:34] <Liven_Up> The odds of someone from town actually dying on this journey
[04:34] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> That would be shit
[04:34] <Liven_Up> Well people are saying this is a suicide mission...
[04:34] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> I would use an old GM trick
[04:34] <Liven_Up> And I love bittersweet endings...
[04:35] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Tons of healing items as loot but buttfuck tough encounters
[04:35] <Liven_Up> My favorite
[04:35] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Anyways though I would try to focus less on combat
[04:35] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> and more on morality and wittiness to overcome the foes
[04:35] <Liven_Up> Oh I agree there.  But if someone does have to die...
[04:35] <Liven_Up> I volunteer
[04:36] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> >inb4 hurr hurr GM railroading his death
[04:36] <Liven_Up> You'd be GMing it, I won't GM my own character
[04:37] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Well then, thanks for the offer
[04:37] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> I will let the dice decide
[04:37] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> And your tongues
[04:37] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Aw fuck loot
[04:38] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> We need to work on that too
[04:38] <Liven_Up> I'm just saying, not all stories have happy endings, and sometimes to save a life you have to lose one. Besides, we're dealing with enteties beyond mortal comprehension who might just be fucking with us. But yes, loot.
[04:38] <Liven_Up> Do we really need it? I'm not saying we don't, but do we?
[04:38] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> >not enough mental pressure on lucy already
[04:38] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Seriously, this scene I'm writing is so intense, I don't think I want to publish it
[04:39] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> I dunno, some loot could be appropriate
[04:39] <Liven_Up> Well it should be fey related, right?
[04:39] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Probably
[04:40] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Fuck what kind of loot do fey have?
[04:40] <Liven_Up> Well they don't use metal...
[04:40] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Generally not
[04:41] <Liven_Up> Magic plants, leathers and the like?
[04:41] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> I'm always so hesitant to do anything magic
[04:41] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> You know Able and co will autisma ll over it
[04:43] <Liven_Up> True, but magic is very much a part of this world
[04:43] <Liven_Up> To deny it would be, well, wrong
[04:43] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> I think you weren't around for the shitstorm surrounding my first adventure, were you?
[04:44] <Liven_Up> Nope, why?
[04:44] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Ugh, it was quite the experience
[04:44] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> >be me
[04:44] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> >offer my time to GM
[04:44] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> >tons of people jump in
[04:44] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> >write rule system
[04:44] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> >discuss monsters and locations
[04:44] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> >go on adventure
[04:45] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> >have fun murdering things and shooting magic missles
[04:45] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> >shitstorm of the ages over 2 or 3 threads
[04:45] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> "Too much magic, bad worldbuilding, go die"
[04:45] <Liven_Up> Fuck em, I bet it was great
[04:45] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> It wasn't really
[04:45] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> But it wasn't terrible
[04:46] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> anyhow, they wanted to throw me out
[04:46] <Liven_Up> Well still, fuck them. Magic is a part of this world, and natural magic is the most fun
[04:47] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> I'm all for it
[04:49] <Liven_Up> Well today I'll look over my book of fey and really make this feel real
[04:49] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> This will be a lot of fun
[04:50] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> and I actually have a  day to prepare
[04:50] <Liven_Up> That it will
[04:50] <Liven_Up> Indeed. How about later we talk with Chere as well and hammer things out?
[04:50] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> Definitely
[04:50] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> He's going to bed now though
[04:50] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> I think
[04:51] <Liven_Up> Soon, and I am as well
[04:51] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> I should too
[04:52] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> 10 hours ago
[04:52] <Ghost_of_Lucyne> hue
[04:52] <Liven_Up> Same, same
