Brenner, Mea, and Half of Holla, oh my!

Well, how's that for a beginning picture? It's Inari herself! With my tweaked face dat, and awesome idle dat, in the desert. Brilliant!

So anyway, I figure I'd start with something that was just looking nice. : D I like Altepa Desert, it's a nice place, although the music could be cooler.

Ahh well, time to get to buisness.

Here is a quick note, I saw Eva's blog, and her post about our Brenner. I'l admit, she beat the living hell out of me, but I won a good 5 of those fights >_>;

Especially the last one, the very, very last fight. We decided to run down to the shore, and fight on the water, so after meeting up, we both start dueling. I used a Lethe Water, but at the wrong time, her Utsusemi went off about a second after I used it. ; ; So, I cut through her Utsusemi, then hit her normally. Then with a WS. Whip off my 2hr, and BAM. Double SC'd her into the dirt ^^ Match ended about 15 seconds later.

So today, we'r supposed to have the Prommy stuff, you know, Promyvion, the emo land that takes a little ways to get up to this Spire, where you murdelize some poor, unfortunate boss.

About an hour and a half, I get a message from Zerayla, the leader of our guild. She's having RL problems and can't show up to help us, and is positive we can do it.

"Oh crap..." was what I said, but understood nonetheless, I told the LS, and then got my things ready for the Prommy run. After a bit, we got everything gathered together, and were prepared. By one, the usual time, we discovered a problem. We only had five people! Myself, Carste, Falk, Kagemusha and Aserati, if I'm correct. My memory is fuzzy o.o;

So, we need another member, although we couldn't find one in the LS, we decided to shout for

one.

"{Promvyion-Mea} {Do you need it?} WAR or SMN 5/6 members"

Not bad of a shout, if I do say so myself.

Only I posted it in party.... x_X So, after a breif bit of rearrangement, I got it out in shout, and almost instantly got a request. A mithra named Sensational decided to offer as SMN, and

we were glad to have her!

So, after a breif bit of running, getting prepared more, we went off to Promyvion-Mea. Let's just say I'm nervous. I kinda considered myself to be the party 'leader', in a manner of speaking.

One problem is...

I have very little leadership skills. I consider myself very bad at it, and I'm not proud of that. But, overall, it wasn't too hard. o.o; Kage helped a bunch, and he even had a map! I had just pulled up mine on XIclopedia, once I get internet into the little PoS laptop I bought from somewhere, I'l be using that for internet reasons, and this can be pure XI jargon.

Anyway! So we get to the Spire of Mea, and go through the battle plan, Kage uses his Anima during the beginning stages of the fight, at 50%, both SMNs, Falk and Sensational blow Astral Flow, and I go 2hr as soon as I hit 100% tp

So, I cheat. I use Meditation to boost my TP up ^^ Once it hits 100, I use Tachi: Enpi

Inari uses Tachi: Enpi

Inari hits the Delver for 5 damage.

o_o; Say what? Okay. No big deal, my WS' have they'r off times. I blow my 2 hr and earn 300% of TP sexiness

Inari uses Tachi: Enpi

Inari hits the Delver for 2 damage.

Skillchain: Distortion

The Delver takes 0 damage.

....... O_____O

Inari uses Tachi: Enpi

Inari hits the Delver for 79 damage

Whew...

Inari uses Tachi: Enpi

Inari hits the Delver for 191 damage

Skillchain: Distortion

The Delver takes 80-someodd points of damage

O.O Holy crap!

So that went well, and then the fight continued on. We used our anima, and everything went

smoothly. The Astral Flows amazed me

Ifrit uses Inferno

The Delver takes 549 points of damage.

That made me WANT to get Summoner...and I don't even like mage jobs. That and most summons look just awesome o_o; Especially Ramuh.

So, anyway, the Delver fell. Took some time, but we did it! I got a breif cutscene, showing a pretty snowy place, and some girl floating in the air o.o;

Then we generally disbanded, and Carste gave Sensational a linkpearl, I bloodported back to Jeuno, and then disbanded also.

"{Promyvion-Holla} {Do you need it?} 5/6 members {/tell} Vergill"

Okay! I can get both my prommys done, and visit all the cool areas!!

As soon as we get started, everything rolls smoothly, we get everything, and teleport on in. I get thrown into a long cutscene. It was...intresting.

First off: Inari got SLAPPED. >_> I was tempted to reach through my screen and pimp slap that damnable scientist right back to where he belonged!

Then, Wolfgang (who I gotta say, I thought was cool) goes and gets close to stabbing me...but stabs the little emo pale child

Then, after all of that...the kid stands up, and makes Tah Darkeenass go everywhere! o_o; Then I got one of those weird things coming from the beginning, something about struggling and my inner self... If there was a fight between me and my inner self... >_>; I'd probably lose.

So anyway, we go through the first floor pretty fast. Easy, eh? Then comes the second...

We push through aggro'd Wanderer after Wanderer, and a Weeper or two. So, no big deal, eh? It took some time, but we got there.

Third floor: Here's where it starts. Vergill (who even I have to say, is a bit of a noob) and this other Elvaan who I can't rememeber get into an argument. Vergill basically acted like a general noob to the point of all but two of us wiping. (I myself, died and dleveled >_>;;) So, we all get raised, and all of us get back on track. We push our way through, when suddenly my 'Magnet' (In-joke in which I have an agro magnet that activates during Prommies and ENMs...along with Yuhtunga Jungle o_O) decided to kick in after almost a month of deactivation.

Seether charges in from NOWHERE and kicked me straight in the face. So, we handle fighting, when halfway, some Wanderer decides to follow my Magnet. Lovely. The Elvaan who accused Vergill of noobitity simply Mijin Gakure's, blowing the Seether apart. That was a good move, since it decided to run away afterward. Then we cut the Wanderer to Shreds.

Now here comes Mr. Thinker...on Vergill this time. I whip out my 2hr, which decided to conviently pop about two minutes ago, and take off a nice chunk of it's HP. Vergill fights too, though he's not nessecarily doing well. The Thinker basically then decided to get away from his Thinking and Plotting, and BAM. I'm down. Vergill basically falls right after. The Whm, and everyone else dies too.

So, we'r talking about disbanding, and we decide to do so. So much for Holla.

Overall, though, it was a rather nice job, if it weren't for the damn Thinker, and my magnet @.@

Still, there's my rather large update.

Inari out! ^^

It begins

Well hello thar! I'm Inari, since I won't use my real name, I'm going under that title.

^^ Inari is the Japanese god of fertility, rice, agriculture, foxes and industry...which means it's my fault FFXI's economy is out of whack... ; ; Damn. On a side note: Inari-zushi is a type of sushi. o_o;

Speaking of which, the reason I made this blog. I play FFXI, Final Fantasy XI. The online one, and a few of my Linkshell members have blogs on here...so I figured I'd join the rising trend! As of now, my character is Elvaan (Whoo!), female, and awesome. :D I'v been playing for about two months, and I haven't really checked my playtime so far, so I'm not sure how long I'm on for, I am on often though, so that counts for something.

My current status jobwise is that my Warrior is 44, my Samurai is 35, my Monk at 20, my Ninja at 10, and my Paladin at 10. Notice anything special about my job choices?

My Linkshell, The Brotherhood -or TBH- is an AWESOME LS :D That's not from a suckup point of view, it really is. I'v enjoyed some of our joking conversations, our weekendly insanity we all tend to get, and some of the events we do. Helping with the stuff they have planned is fun too, and suprisingly I'm not much of a helper to people, it's just really really really fun to do it on XI for some reason o_o; The game is hardly repetitive, like most say, and sometimes I may have my off moments, such as staying up late in a pt, and being tired and such. ^^;

Still, this is something I'm starting at school. I'l continue at home, but for now I don't have any of the nice pictures of my -and the LS'- adventures. That's all for now!
