Key/Character: Romani cos Montclaire
Which Event: Cult of the Forbidden Shadow
Responsiveness (Were their narrations posted within a reasonable time-frame and were they quick to respond?):
10/10, Every response came very quickly and was meaningful.
Balance (How entertaining were the battles, and any obstacles/traps?):
11/10, Some would argue that a battle that the pcs can win makes it balanced. This was a case of 'if they went full out, they could most easily decimate the pcs, but the bosses did not spam every move they could have to the point of absolutely decimating. In fact, it felt like each of the bosses were actually puzzle bosses, with a different puzzle round.
Easy to say I adored the way that the battles in this event went. (the verbal taunting in the last boss was really fun to read too.)
Storytelling (Did it feel like an adventure, did the content of the narrations meet your expectations?):
10/10
I really liked the story telling. The ability to skip the Leafat fight if we moved fast enough, the battle against the darkwoods ent, fighting against the cultists and ultimately Yalmavanta were all very memorable. The wood of the ent, the spirits empowering 3 pcs was, in my opinion, amazing. Going in, I felt like it would be a cultist hunt, coming out..
Events for me mainly feel self contained, like they're their own story, like a movie in an anime. This felt alive, in my opinion, like it will have lasting effects.
Fairness (Were the punishments justified and earned, was the risk to reward ratio good?)
10/10 I liked it a lot. The punishments, I think, were fair, and if people fell the first time, they got a temp. after that they had a chance to roll. I liked that a lot, honestly. And the rewards were really neat.
Overall:
It was a really good event. I enjoyed every aspect of it. Would do again.
