I'm pretty darned tired right now so I really can't be bothered sifting through those screenies. Enjoy!
Wow....simply....wow.
As the token nub, big thanks to the players and dms for keeping me awake until 5.30 in the morning. It was an epic adventure, and I had a grand ol' time.
Hehe.
Amazing. Hey, if you ever plan on heading back up, please post the time intended so that those who wish to head back up -can-.
Amazing screenies though, I knew someone would head down eventually.

Roslyn is stunned at the ferocity of the Chosen and how quickly they tear Saida apart. Zulfiqar is helpless to aid her as he is beset on all side.
Lol, Caddies second picture makes me think, "RUN, UTREYU, RUN!"
A grand time!
Very cool
Woah! That must have been very entertaining. :o

Thanks. =)

He stood with us, through the dangers...
Alas, Maurice was felled in the Underdark before we really got a chance to know him well.
Fare well, Maurice! We shall remember you fondly!
He is in Maur heaven now. :(
Another eventful day in the UD.

A final thanks to everyone in the group for taking care of an incredibly out-of-depth Zach and showing us both a good time.
Amazing introduction to the server.
Quote from: Luke Danger;116056Amazing. Hey, if you ever plan on heading back up, please post the time intended so that those who wish to head back up -can-.
I actually prepared an old PC for this trip about an hour before they came down. Literally minutes after they announced, I logged in with that PC and found myself in the DM room, greeted by a sign that my PC had been retired and that I needed to hunt down a DM to get them out. Then I discovered that
all my UD PCs had been similarly retired.
I took this to mean that the DMs do not want to see UD PCs anymore for whatever reason.
Okay. Whatever.
So melodramatic. Just ask a DM if you can or can't play the character in question, and trust that the measure implemented is a precaution by the DMs to ensure setting integrity, which comes before player whims.
Wow, that looks like an epic time. Amazing.
Brings back so many memories.
No trip to the Underdark would be complete without being captured by the Heinous Drowz!!!

But Roslyn talked her way out of it, after some negotiations with a big, scary, yucky spider.

Apparently, it tried to cross with fear in its heart.
While the repercussions of our actions may be felt for some time, the "Company of the Way" has, mostly, returned. It was an awesome four days of romping about the Underdark.
Thanks to DMs and players, you guys made it great.

I posted a notice basically as soon as we arrived, answered your letter and then posted the day we left too. Not our fault you never showed up lol.
Freakin' great time. Thanks to everybody involved, including those we met below!
It was great selling potions again! Thanks for EFUAs for showing up in Mur.
Great stuff, guys. I really couldn't have asked for a better end for my character. Thanks to all the PCs--And DMs!--Involved for making the event as awesome as it was.
A few last screenies from the romp:

Good times. The fact that there is still that Underdark connection is probably one of real DM masterstrokes for EFU:A. I thoroughly recommend anyone else to head back down if you can.
Great fun, most nervous i have ever been on EFU!
I loved our little adventure, for several reasons:
-The players and characters. It was awesome.
-Almost everything we've done was supervised by a DM; from drinking Halla's ale, to beating a drow in duel, and so on.
-The DMs were awesome too!
-This whole adventure reminded me of a PnP session, which was quite fun! A very different mood from normal NWN.
Of course, I already plan to return there!
That's okay, I missed out on dying and dropping tonnes of great loot for you guys, I'll get over it.
I think I'm still hearing bitterness. wtflol.
My favorite line of the whole trip was when Roslyn stepped out onto the platform where the underdark "Southern Oracle" things were, said "I trust you Benjamin" after thinking the riddle to cross was solved, and instantly got zapped.
One of those horrifying but funny moments. Wish I had a screen shot of that!
Disclaimer: It wasn't Benjamin's fault she died, but it was still very funny!

Don't you mean everybody else's great loot?
God I wish I had been there. Very epic stuff guys very epic.
