Because the past has something that the present doesn't have.  Far more violence.  Why is there talking when there is killing for profit to be had?

I feel the need to point out that the type of sword she does wield is listed as only 10 pounds and appears to be quite a lot shorter than she herself is, so she'd be booed out of an Emelious cosplay convention.

Who cares about realistic descriptions this is trainwreckland.

~ God Hates Golden Sun ~

While thematically appropriate considering that we are exploring the sun god’s realm, Golden Sun is still terrible and thus should never be part of anything. Anyway, I guess we have to go to the four elemental towers or some shit. So we go into the Blight, some creeper stalks us while we fight and then he wanders off, that was weird but whatevs.

We then go to the Water Tower and we discover that the place is already being flooded which sucks. We could swim underwater to try to undone the bad deeds that have happened here but we’d take 3d10 damage per second or something which is not really ideal given our current HP totals. So we walk off dejected and try to man a boat to the Wind Tower. Desmond promptly gets a terrible roll on something totally inappropriate for the skill challenge and crashes the boat because he’s jut that awesome. Rachelle yells at him but it’s too late. We’ve already landed in a field with a hot, possibly naked half-elven chick and Desmond is turned on, but she doesn’t seem to be interested in his advances but she does seem to want to kill us……. Fudge.

So we arrive at the Wind Tower and meet MIA, GARET, ISAAC, AND uhmm… SOME OTHER GS CHARACTER and we chat with them. They tell us about their friends or whatever, blather. So we guard different sides of the tower or something and we ambush some mooks with Stinking Cloud in a small enclosed space which pisses them all off and they run away. Meanwhile, stinky-head, the mean guy who was stalking us earlier, shows up and owns the hell out of us with his mad defensive skillz and his 900 HP. Rachelle got stunned by this asswipe so Desmond dragged her away from the battlefield so she wouldn’t die. Then the captives are brought with the evil guy and we let them pass peacefully.

NOT!

Feth decides to murder the captives because s/he thinks they are sacrifices and ends up slaughtering an old man mentor guy and for some reason the other one has a stick in her ass and we fight a battle with her but she’s useless and whiny OMG YOU KILLED SOMEONE FOR NO REASON boo fucking hoo. It was necessary for the common good (maybe)!

Then we fight dopplegangers with the Golden Sun crowd. I play as Mia, Elfboy was Ivan, JAD was Garet, and Isaac was played by committee. We may or may not have mocked Golden Sun characters with lines about justice, friendship, and happiness. (Isaac heroically posed and nodded his head meaningfully) and the big mean boss guy didn’t like this. He got split into four by some crazy machine or something and then Alexander appeared to maximize the cheesy Pelor-realm people crowd. This fight was pretty fucking hard because the Invoker was a giant bitch and the Pally had hella AC. Fortunately the Avenger wasn’t as awesome as Al and the Cleric was kinda dumb~

We went back to Pelor-land as heroes and life was wonderful….. until we found out that our beloved home Thranton had been invaded! Fuck!  We will have to surf down some leylines or something to try to save the day!

Also, having Resist 5 to all damage on all allies against an enemy that does tons of ongoing 5 poison damage? Hilarious.

Good job, you killed Kraden.  I'm sure this won't wind up biting you in the ass in some way like being forced to serve as ENDLESS BARRELS of exposition in the sequel or anything silly like that at all.

Apparently the bitch who is angry at us for murdering this old coot is Jenna.

~Shit’s Getting Crazy in Thranton~

As we go back into the comforts of Erathis’s realm, we turn back into our original selves, except Marza who was a Sorcerer and then we forced him to become an Ardent because we are really big jerks (or we needed a healer). So we fight this Guardian guy who tries to prevent us from travelling to beautiful Thranton. Rachelle is all pissy because things immune fear and this makes her less awesome, Desmond is all pissy because he hasn’t gotten laid in weeks (oh sure, the god of fertility, but only after you get married, well booooooo to this place), and Feth is pissy because she’s Feth. A lot of us got knocked off cliffs and Alex and Feth had to save our asses. Unfortunately we ended up pretty far from Thranton herself, even if we landed in Erathi lands. A loyal Erathi merchant took us close to Thranton luckily, and then we got there pretty quickly. There was some Balefire and shit going down in the middle of the city, so we stayed away from there. We fought zombies instead and then tried to storm the front of the castle. Bad idea, generally, although we did get some sweet shit from murdering some Eladrin scum. We had to roll to see if the Eladrin’s smugness was because of his innate Eladrinness or because he was an officer. Considering that we got two +3 items from him, I’d assume the latter (and the former). This fight was a bitch on our resources though; we fought several enemies with BURST 1 FORTITUDE GRAAHH EVERYONE IN OUR PARTY HAS SHIT FORT THIS SUCKS FUCKING GIANTS.

So Rachelle, the bitch queen, realizes that OH I KNOW HOW WE CAN SNEAK INTO THE CITY INSTEAD OF RAMMING HEADFIRST INTO A FORTIFIED AREA. Thanks, why didn’t you inform us sooner. (For the sweet swag, obv.) So we go in and reality shifts or something, we fight some easy enemies and then we saw that the Patriarch may have lost the battle against the evils, we go up to the teleportation room to crush in Grallax’s FACE and run into some creepy guys who use a lot of status. We kill them, step in, and then………………….. the man himself is there. Fuck that guy.

Grallax Must Die. And in a turn of events, Petey saves our ass and comes to help us kill this d-bag!

So the epic battle starts with our friend Gral partially sealing us off with an ice wall and Desmond buffing people cuz that’s what he does. A long battle commences, we get tentacle raped twice, he ice walls us a lot, Feth comes really really close to death because she flew over the wall and got wailed on, and Alexander hits him in the face. He has mad defenses aside from his Fortitude, which is kinda bad. This makes Rachelle happy but me and Feth and Alex and Marza cry like bitches. Eventually, after some hairy situation, we kill the bastard off but unfortunately he has already initiated the murder of Erathis herself. So we have to decide…… the Erathi land or Erathis herself? Rachelle decides to sacrifice the country to save her goddess because she’s a faithful brownnoser and Erathi land would suck without Erathis anyway. We manage to barely get out of the realm before it crackles, and we get thrust into a new place…

And we transform again! Rachelle becomes a stupid Cleric/Ranger and likes ICE CREAM, Desmond is now a psychic MENSA supergenius with horns on his face and a tail to tailwhip bitches. Mind Thrust is his new favorite skill as he cosplays AT main characters. Feth is a Rogue/Warlock (we think), Alex heals people, and Marza defends with his mind. Should be a fun and faaabulous new cast in this new world~~~

I turned into a Tiefling Psion with 20 INT. And Mind Thrust is my new favorite ability.

Rachelle now has 6 INT. Desmond is going to have fun *smirk*

Goddamn it, forgot about the stat penalty. I suppose that means Feth has 6 wisdom now. Guess all the shadow makes it hard to see.

Last battle was very interesting as we tried to get synergy with our new party. Alexander got wailed on. Desmond, meanwhile, was never targetted with an attack!

That's because the DM originally thought that Alexander was Desmond, thus reversing the bitch seat accidentally. Also, you forgot to mention the best part of the battle, and I will personally see to it you suffer horrible fates if you don't fix this egregious mistake.

I just got emo syphilis from Dark Kain. :( (Healing on me is halved!) If it progresses I may have to start stealing crystals and betraying my friends 3-5 times a day.

Desmond tried to move away from Dark Kain; the latter got clingy. At the end of the battle, Desmond failed a save and it was revealed he had contracted emo syphilis.

Note: The enemy may or may not have been randomly named Dark Kain by the players for no other reason than it was described as "appearing filled with the power of darkness", and what Desmond got may or may not have been a nameless, healing-halving disease.
