Alright, here's what went down in Eberron on Wednesday:
We told our large group what we had found and split up, our group traveling to the NE while others went other ways. We quickly learned to watch where we were going when we found an acid quicksand pit, not fun. I threw a rock in it, but anyways, we almost have a massive tree fall on us and in doing so, find another warforged. I repair him a bit and he does a jig, yay! He's a bit of a wizard too, I find out and decides to join our party. We find some strange looking tracks and follow them for quite a while before comming upon some smoke. One of the shifters decides to check it out and before we know it, he runs back towards us with three creepy looking guys following. Another three eventually jump out after tham and we're chin deep in battle. After firing off all of my offensive spells, they all hit and did damage, yay!, I go to poke one with my dagger, but instead drop it on my foot, sigh. What do you expect, I'm a mage. Anyways, we beat down the baddies and I get knocked down to an inch from my life in one hit, that was not fun. The other shifter gets knocked out as wekk and out warforged aren't looking too hot. Hopefully we will be able to rest and heal before anything else tries to hurt us.
There was a bit more including bushes and shiny rocks, but I'm too lazy today to type in all the details, they didn't involve my character too much anyways.
That's it for now, I shall update after Exalted this Friday, yay!

Soooo sleepy...
Anyways, it has been a good weekend. I know I usually only update about RPG's but I felt like updating, so feel special. Friday was fun, went to see Silent Hill. It was ok, not one I'll probably see again though. And I did lose a bit of sleep over it, but not as much as after I watched Ju on.(The Japanese version of the Gurdge). Had a herp show today for open house, it went well, and I got the lizard tank all set up, now hopefully they will ship them to me soon! Kinda ill this weekend, hence the tiredness, but getting better. Well, my urge to update has subsided, until Thursday.

Ah, I seem to have forgotten to update about the Star Trek game, oops, here it is:
Let's see...my mouse count goes well over 300 now, and somehow, 4 of them escaped. Darn force field cages. Anyways, some of my mice bred with the mice I gave the ferengi and had babies, which the ship's sensors didn't like. We found the carcasses of the moms and the running total was I believe 35-60 baby mice running around the ship. Well the only way I knew to kill them was the toxic gas the newborns feed off of, but the adults seem wary of. So we gassed the ship, assumed all mice died, and had a drinking party, yay! Oh, and I added another force field around all my mice cages. Total is ten currently breeding pairs and about 342 other mice. I really need to come up with experiments to run on them...

Due to a special request, I shall now give my rant on how AWESOME Gaara (not Sandy!) is:
Let's start from the begining. Gaara was was son of the Kazakage, leader of the sand village, and a young woman. He was posessed by the demon within him at birth and killed his mother. Her spirit and the demon is what keeps the sand shield always around him. Everyone in his village knew about his secret and disliked him, much like Naruto. He didn't have much control of his powers when he was young and scared many of the kids away because he would accidentally hurt them when they wouldn't play with him. He was so cute and sad, until his mother's sister, who took care of him, told him she really cared about him. He knew sympathy for the first time. Later that night, she tried to kill him. He killed her in protection, but not before feeling deeply betrayed by not only her, but his father who had sent her to kill him. He is used merely as a tool for the sand village, though he doesn't normally obey orders well, nor gets along with his teamates, who dislike him as well.
Aside from his backstory, he is a very powerful ninja. He could probably hold his own against the legendary ninjas and Naruto. His demon, the sand badger, though kinda funny, is very powerful and almost as large as the demon fox in Naruto. The black around Gaara's eyes is not eyeliner, it's there because he barely sleeps. When he does sleep, the demon posesses him completly and becomes even more terrifying than it originally is. He's got two sand shields, the constantly moving one and the sand armor. He also has a series of impenitrable sand defenses you see later in the series. Not to mention he can rip sand right out of the ground in about a half mile radius around him and use it to smash you to microscopic pieces, trap you, crush you, or bury you many meters below the surface. If that isn't cool, I don't know what is.
So there's my rant on Gaara. If I remember anything else, I'll be sure to update it.
All fear my throwing sandals +10 :)

4 hour work shifts suck, especially when you 1) aren't expecting them, 2) it's Easter Sunday, 3) you're running on minimal sleep and 4) you have really nothing to fill the time with. *Sigh* Anyways, oh, I guess I should update RPG stuff.
Eberron:
Let's see, I am now one level away from being able to take my prestige class, yay! We were chilling in town, then told the university people about desiring to seek out the rest of the artifacts and those two mysterious figures we saw previously who we believe have them. We meet this professor, she's just crazy. Where ever she is, my character is not there. She and the university will fund our expedition and provide some backup. We go by airship to this place where there are lizard folk and the earth spits acid, etc. Typical dangerous turf. We get there and let the information gatherers in our party find some info, then are introduced to a lizard-folk who says he will take us to some runes if we clear the way of any threats first. Sounds fun, doesn't it? Yeah, that's about as far as we got. On a whole, my character did only one thing, know the history of the Ilithid race, yay for natural 20's (It was natural 20 night for all except one party member). So, a bit slow, but gearing up for the next session, which should prove to be very exciting.
Exalted:
No exalted this week, Easter and such, just Naruto enjoyment.

Oh boy, the busy week is finally coming to an end, with a bit of a bang so it seems. Two tests down, one to go, then two hours of standing in front of my research poster in the CNR in not the most comfortable shoes. My tests went alright, I believe I got a B on my herpetology lab exam, it went better than I thought it was going to. My quant exam wasn't quite so easy, but after some extra credit, I should be at a B for the test grade, yay! Now I just hope my herpetology lecture exam goes well today and no one asks me any really wierd questions about my research. Enough with real life, here's a synopsis of the Star Treck game Wednesday:
Our captain finally wakes up and it quickly removed from my science deck. I'm just hanging out on the bridge for once and in teleports this guy. Another human, whoopie (sarcastic). After working with him for a while, it seems he's not quite what I thought. He takes everything you say very literally and has amazing powers over technology. If he weren't human, I'd almost think he was borg. Anyways, I head back up to science deck and suddenly, without warning, everyone gets teleported to the surface of the planet we were orbiting. That was painful, my symbiot is not very good with the teleporting. So, curled up in a ball on the ground and bleeding internally, I curse whoever teleported myself without warning. Thankfully, a crew member, sorry I can't remember his character name, helps me get back to the ship and healed up. While I'm healing, our captain is suddenly teleported into med bay looking about as bad as I was. Kinda made me curious about what they were doing down there, but most of the crew is insane, so I guess it's not uncommon for stuff like this to happen. I take a nap, then get to expalain to our newest crew member why teleporting me is not a good idea. After checking on the mice and re-sorting them into new cages (55 babies, yay!) I head to the holodeck and watch the 1993 World Series of Baseball for a while. We eventually reach a spacestation that we had stopped at on our way out because someone wanted to buy a parrot. I stayed, claimed holodeck 2 as my own, and learned how to play soccer. That was it for that session, more craziness to come in about 2 weeks.

Yay for Exalted, sadness for Isaac being ill and not present.
So, the preist, diplomat and I head south to seek out the demon source while our fighter takes most of our troops westishnorthish to fight stuff. We were going to take horses, but then I was reminded of the airship, which is much faster, so we took the horses on the airship. A good compromise. Lots of smoke when we get close, and people rioting in the city. Leaping from roof to roof, as usual, I watch the priest take out two demons and follow him to the downtown area. There are a bunch of demons around this one building, so we devise a plan to distract them so I can get in and investigate. The diplomat starts setting buildings on fire and some demons run off after him. The priest uses his hearthstone to mock one of the demons, kill him and draw some more over. He then hits thirty demons with this awesome archery charm and I can sneak into the building. I find two guards and quickly senak attack and dispose of one. The second proves to be a bit more difficult and gets in some good hits, but I eventually kill him and see that they were guarding a door, probably the office of a big demon. I retreat a bit away to rest and recover and hope the others are doing well.
