Armageddon was amazing. Here's my day-by-day recap of the event.

Wednesday

First day of the event is always a basic one. Setting up and preparing yourself for the days of fighting ahead. Khador camp consisted of myself, Lloyd, Waffle, Frozgaar, Kracken, Arylin, Wilhelm and Feora. Tents were pitched, bags were unpacked, garb was put on, then onto Wal-Mart! Waffle, Wilhelm, Arylin and myself went in garb. Froz didn't, because he sucks at existing. Wilhelm got us lost, so we took a long route to Wal-mart. There, we stocked up on food, then hit the nearby liquor store. Booze was bought, then back to camp. I started on dinner, another shrimp boil. Many people from camps around us came by. Even got a visit from former Khadorian, (now fighting for Rhun) Salamander. Who brought the hookah! Much hookah was smoked, much food was feasted upon. It was the day of partying at Khador Kamp.


Thursday

I didn't much feel like fighting. I spent the majority of the day fishing the river with Lloyd and the fellows from Bals Tirath. However, nightfall brought about...Sin Night. I hooked up with some of the members of Jester's Court and headed down there for sinful festivities. It was crowded, loud and three kegs were strewn about the land. This made me glee. Sinful acts were all around, from all seven of the sins. I departed, wandered, and came back some time later. Most of the crowd dispersed and I found a few friends lingering. We played Wheel of Sin. I mostly landed on Greed and Gluttony. Those sins consisted of stealing someone's drink and drinking it, along with chugging my own drink. Much alcohol was consumed. I ended up with a handful of sin tokens.

Friday

I woke up late in the day here, changed into some better garb and hit the field just in time for realm battles. Lady Renell also joined Kamp Khador. Of course, we didn't survive too long out there in realm battles. Khador didn't have a very big turn-out of people this event. Afterward was Unit Battles. Since me and Lloyd have become official petitioners for Jester's Court, we hooked up with them and House Dregoth, who the Court serves as mercenaries for. It didn't go too bad. However, at a point during unit battles, I took an arrow to my left eye, which scraped my eyeball a little. I'm 3/4s blind on my right side. So I couldn't see for a while and my vision was blurred for several hours after that. So me and Lloyd took to fishing in the pond, using bacon as bait. We caught many catfish of a decent size! These fish were saved for consumption. Feast consisted of Gyros, thanks to the feastmaster, Bo. After feast, the catfish we nabbed were gutted, skinned, deboned, and cooked. The evening ushered in Khador's Circle of Doom. Tiki torches arranged in a circle showed the battleground. Many combatants came with the promise of booze. In the circle, they would each draw a fighting style from a hat. Styled consisted of things such as Ninja, Pirate, Mantis, Frenchman, Drunk Irishman, and so on. Of course, there were a few games in there as well. Russian Roulette, German Roulette, Horrible Death, Knoll Wrestling... Two people would draw from the hat and fight using the styles they drew. Winner of 2 of 3 would take a shot. Much fun was had by all. More so with Drunken Hobo Fights. Kracken crafted two daggers that looked like broken bottles. This is where I met Raz. Hell of a funny guy. Ended up hanging out with his realm for the majority of that evening. The catfish was also delicious and enjoyed by many.

Saturday

Ah, Saturday ushered in a few problems. Waffle and Frozgaar left the event early. Me and Lloyd were left without a ride. Kracken and Arylin had disappeared for some kind of pre-destined affair. I hit the field with the Jesters again. Good times fighting. Unfortunately, the rain from Wed and the night before left main fire unlit. Also made my tent into a pool. Me and Lloyd took the time to drain it out and re-pitch it somewhere in the hot sun. Ah, feast! Theros hosted a fancy feast, where those in nice garb could sit down and be served, rather than going through with the rest of the rough and tumble. Feast was delicious. Cheddar bacon mashed potatoes, steamed vegetables, bread and cheese, stuffed rolls of beef loin and three kinds of cake. Theros put on an amazing feast. The evening came about with savaging firewood from the main fire with Lloyd, Raz and the rest of the realm Raz was with. Despite wetness, we were able to get it started up without a hitch. Raz then burned his belt flag token as a symbol of him choosing a new fighting name, Fido. The eve went off with consumption of beer, feast leftovers and a few songs.

Sunday

I was able to catch a ride home with Dove and Critter. Lady Renell shipped off Lloyd. I was tired and sore once I returned home. Coming home is always the best part, though.

And that was my Geddon recap.
