Warhammer : Order Alt Night [Feb 2nd]

It is the start of a new week , and you know it's time
for our city slackers to continue on their adventures .
Assembled at the gates of Altdorf :

-Tzudevil ( RunePriest - Rank 18)
-Dracfyre ( Bright Wizard - Rank 18)
-Fynflam ( Bright Wizard - Rank 17)
-Elsabeth ( Bright Wizard - Rank 18 )
-Korinn ( Sword Master - Rank 19)
-GrimFate( Sword Master - Rank 16)

As we made the trek to Wolfenburg insouthern Ostland ,
we queued for some scnearios.we had 3 scenarios in the span
of 30 minutes and were lot of fun now that we are all close to the
top of the tier . A big victory in Phoenix Gate , and two close fights
in Mourkain Temple . Wish we had the same luxury on Monolith .
I haven't seen a scenario on any of my destro characters
(other than on weekends).

Back at Wolfenburg , we set out in pursuit of the perpetrators
of the plague that ravaged Ostland's capital . we soon found
ourselves making the arduous trek up a treacherous mountain
pass into the forbidding cold lands of High Pass .

Far north of any land that could be called civilized , High Pass
is the gate between the northernmost reaches of the realm of man
and the wilds of Chaos . A Hostile land slowly warping under the influence
of the snows and winds and the subtle taint of the Dark Gods .

Seeking refuge from the bitter cold , we head into Nuhr's crest .
an Expedition of Griffon soldiers has set camp and were looking for
Dr Zumwald , the plague architect who fled into these parts .

After a small respite , we set north of the campin pursuit of some
shadowy figures and happened upon "The Foetid Plains".
It was said to be the site of an ancient battlefield and that so much
blood spilled on these tainted grounds, a terrible beast was born in
the belly of the mountain. The many arms of this beast reach
upward in search of more ichor upon which to feed and we had to
pass through these tentacle infested grounds . Cutting down many
tentacles we slowly made our way through this putrid place until
we were startled by a murderous looking daemon spawning right
through the ground under our feet .


"The Foetid Plains Daemon"

we had to fight our way through the many horrid daemonvines
surrounding it before attacking it and slaying the wicked deamon itself !

packing our things quickly , we couldn't wait to get out of these
tainted parts . We followed a mountain road south into the top
of small hill to investigate some ruins .
The ruins, however, were far from abandoned.



"Chaos Ruins"

Chaos Cultists and minor daemons milled around ,
for what ungodly purpose we didn't know .
However , it was too close to the Griffon camp .
this can not be good and we had to dosomething about it .
After defeating some of the congregated cultists , we were
surprised by Sorcerers joining together upon the Chaos Star
to enact some sort of a dark ritual of power .


The chaos Magii prepare for a Dark Ritual !

Caught a bit unprepared , our party went down swinging but not
before dragging a few of those chaos magii with us . Quickly
regrouping, we came back to finish what we started and out of
nowhere , "Velethor the Shifter" comes flying over our heads
on his daemonic disc summoning mighty flamers .

That Magus will never face a fair fight while his minions exist!
Things got hairy at this point ,as Velethor kept summoning his
minions as fast we defeated them , and we couldn't bring him
to the ground as the pq timer slowly ticked by and eventually
expired . On the plus side , the encounter was a lot of fun and
the experience points off all these champion npcs were great .
I even got a tome Unlock for killing 100 flamers !

Great night Overall , most of us ranked up and plan to come
back next week to continue the adventure . So far i like this
new zone , and look forward to what future chapters hold .


Korinn's new Elven Steed

Also , Korinn hit the rank 20 milestone and now sporting a
spanking new white convertible ..err .. i mean horse !
