Not today, but yesterday marked a year of Aziik being around in the realms which makes him not only my longest standing character ( second place goes to a Sylvan I played for roughly three months.) but also makes Achaea one of the only games I've played for more than six months consecutively and not gotten tired of.
Still learning new things every day when I play and toying with ideas for other characters though my focus always winds up on Aziik. Guess what they say about finding your niche is true, heh!
Also hit a year on Aereidhna recently! It's a fun milestone.
Worked on a scavenger hunt for the Outriders, hung out a bit with the family, had some important and heavy conversations, bought a bunch of tickets in the city lottery, hung out with Navarr.
Got chewed out for sending a tell to an afk supernoob politely requesting that he find somewhere else to hunt if he was hunting here 30 minutes after doing so.
I got ignored by someone...and I couldn't even tell you why. Mid-fight, and I tried to chuckle at him or something, and what do you know, I can't emote at him! Guess some people just really don't like to lose.
Edit: Just realized said person is in a rather large leadership role as well. Pretty unfortunate when people in those sorts of positions are so eager to ignore someone to prevent any further interaction.
I still love you @Antidas! I'll never ignore your windchime chuckles, your radiant smile... the sunkissed blush of your cheeks as you shyly avert your gaze while you penetrate me with your big, thick dagger

Oh stop you two! You're making me blush! XD
When good meets bad and makes a softserve twirl of awesome.
Got appointed to Ambassador today. Dope! First minister position I've had in all my time playing, looking forward to seeing how it goes. Hopefully I don't fuck up.
In other news, wasted my spin on the Wheel of Fortune before the darn thing got fixed
Hung out with @Aurielle, @Severina, and @Allene just chatting for hours which was really pleasant. Shared anecdotes and talked about life goals and things. Sketched some dresses while we were talking. Thinking seriously about renting a shop to sell clothes because the market is so terribad.
@Navarr teased me about the surprise he's planning - I'm in excruciating suspense - and Aerei revealed that she is pregnant with their second child, which means no drinking or heavy stuff like hunting for a bit, but that's offset by the general excitement and all. Aurielle gave me some silly Logosmas socks to give Navarr as a present because he really digs socks, so he started to play with them - put them on his head and did faces, it was hysterical.
Gave a novice test to the brilliant @Jaryk who wowed me with his mad skillz. Did lots of runes, tattoos, and forging. Talked briefly with @Releon, @Belerofon, and got to quickly snuggle @Phelia, @Perl, and @Razzlo before I had to rest. Oh! And got to do a really super fun egghunt, which I did not win, but another Cyrenian, @Ashelia, did, and it was awesome.

Went on my first marque run with a newbie in my house. @Gamden was a real sport and let me use his ship with his supervision. Not a single lesson spent into sea-faring and I made the marque run completely with his help. It was really fun to learn how far everything was and I got to finish a house task for it too!
Got owned by @Tesha when Targ raided Hashan last night, but survived for slightly longer than I did the last time we fought, so will count that as a win. Maybe one of these days I will actually beat her...
Got all my Syssin Serpent stuff set up and took the first online bounty I saw, being @Rohai and phased up and entered Dun Valley where he immediately left. Cursing my luck and assuming he had Mind Net up I waited until I saw him vanish. Wasted time ferrying to Ulangi then Mysia just to ferry both of them back and check Meropis. (bingo) Phasing up I went and followed him but he was running all over the Vasnari Mountains not hunting and lingering near the portal. Thinking I was found I was about to just go for the backstab until he led me to the mines and started hunting.
Now is my time! I start my backstab and then plunge my dagger into his back with a dirk full of delphinium. Knowing he's mine now I decide to make sure he doesnt have rebounding and flay (doh) which goes through his non existing aura and wake him up. Egads! I scramble around to remember what my pinshot alias is and get that all up in his grill down through his foot and start to attack him with my snake and finding his priorities are actually stopping me from killing him. (Asthma>Paralysis>Darkshade?? I dont know) To which he tumbles out and I try to evade to follow but I accidentally conjure a lightwall instead and 3.5 seconds later he's gone.
Return to mainland and tell him he's outwitted me this time, but if he meets me for a duel and defeats me then I will never both him again. We agree and face off in the most epic match in history! I pinshot, he attacks both my legs, I hypnotize, he attacks both my legs, I seal my hypnosis, he breaks my legs, I scream in the University library (NOOOOOOOOOOO), he axe kicks me, NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, he axe kicks me again and I die.
Rohai looks about himself in surprise. "Wow!" You exclaim.
This can't be. The monk I had defeated a few (rl) months(weeks?) ago, literally walked over. Defeated me. This cannot be! Has he.. Improved? I insist on a rematch, he agrees. @Elawien inks him a tree (Damn) and he inks himself a starburst (Double damn) and we get ready to go. I parry my leg and announce I am ready. He breaks into the scorpion stance and says he is ready. We're off!
<16.5 minutes of dueling later>
I figured it out! I stab darkshade, I bite scytherus(lol what does this even do I was just desperate at this point), then I just keep hitting him over and over with curare and kalmia. One darkshade message, two, three, do I see a fourth?! Suddenly he stiffens up under the sunlight! The final four(?) seconds! I pray to the gods and hit him with euphorbia and kalmia as much as I can, and suddenly his back snaps (well no, that's Voyria but I like to imagine it snapped) and he dies to Darkshade. I got my bounty and won my first legitimate duel as a Syssin Serpent and I erupt into a Tarzan scream while beating my chest.
I bow to him and thank him for the duel, telling him how much I enjoyed it and how good it was to see him improve. We bow to each other and I depart back to Mhaldor where everyone is waiting for me and erupting in cheers and celebrating my success where I proceed to AFK because the librarian came over to me and reported that some boys saw me hunched over a computer aggressively tapping the keyboard and were certain I was hacking and fighting off the NSA or CIA or FBI or something. She then kindly asked me to leave and I logged out for the day. I pour myself open a Mike's Hard Limeade and drink and study my physics work, only remembering now to post about my epicness that I had with the Brohai.
TL;DR @Rohai kicked my sh!z in because I underestimated him like the scrublord I am. I then proceed to (barely) beat him after near 20 minutes of struggling and making people in the library think I am hacking into the government's stuff.

Penwize has cowardly forfeited the challenge to mortal combat issued by Atalkez.

I'm also mildly intoxicated.

You unwrap the lavish ribbon and paper from an elegant golden giftbox and open the lid to find inside a Velocity Bow!
