Finals Approach

Yo yo yo. (<--- New Greeting Right Thar! Hmm... maybe that should be next month's poll. "What should my greeting be?")

Ok, so I haven't been on W101 too much lately, but that's going to be even a lower amount of time very soon. Finals are coming up in school, and my grades aren't quite where I want them to be atm. Which means staying after for review sessions and studying with my friends.

Don't worry, it's not like I'm quitting forever (which unfortunately some people have done.) I'm just not going to be on too often.

I'm actually logging in right now, which will pwn.

I'm almost halfway done with the sidequests in MS (By halfway I mean area-wise, not quest numbers.) and by halfway I also mean, sort of almost kind of maybe possibly there is a chance of it. (If you could understand that you get +5 Brownie Points)

Well, my logging in is done. See you all later.

Another Magic-Filled Day

Hello everyone, there's not too much to talk about today, but I suppose if there wasn't too much, then I wouldn't be making this post.

Today has been very fun so far.

When I went on W101 today, Emily and Alyssa were on. And after a while of talking, Emily and I discovered that she lives a few towns away from me. Isn't that awesomesauce right there?

This morning I watched the rest of 2012 with my dad. That was a fantastic movie. I really hope that all never happens irl though.

I just watched The Blind Side with my mom. That was also a great movie. I'm glad that there are still good-hearted people in the world.

If you're wondering where I was yesterday (which I'm sure you all are) I was over at David's because it was his birthday on Friday. (If you wish him a happy birthday in the comments, you get +10 Brownie Points ;D) I watched a movie with Philly too. It was called The Thaw. (It's a horror movie, so I suggest you not watch it if you get scared easily. There is some language in the movie, so make sure it's ok with your parents before watching it.) It's about a parasite that comes from a wooly mammoth that a scientist discoved that has thawed out of a glacier. The parasite gets a whole bunch of people infected obviously. I was a little freaked out because I'm very scared of bugs (much like the character, Federico, in the movie) but me and Philly turned the scary parts into funny parts, through the art of commentary.

I also finally finished a quest that has been bugging me since I left Mooshu: Fushiko. This quest was nearly impossible for me when I got it. At first I couldn't even beat the second candle mob, even with a potion after the first candle. I finally got to the boss fight but died quickly. I then just gave up on the quest and moved on. The only reason I even started the quest was to get the book in Fusiko's lair. Yes, I do the book quests. Of course I can't just port into the room through a friend that's already done the, I suppose you could call it an instance, because only one person can do it at a time because it's supposed to test our strength. (Clearly I wasn't strong enough.) Once I got partway through Dragonspyre, I tried again, still no. Now that I've beaten Malistaire, and gotten to level forty eight, I was finally able to beat her.

The weird thing about it was, that when I lit the second candle, the two ghosts appeared, but only one went into battle with me. This made the instance a whole lot easier because I got to fight them one at a time. Now, before you comment asking me "How the heck did you do that, Blaze?", let me tell you that I have absolutely no clue. I'm assuming it just wasn't within the "pull-in" range of the battle circle.

Yeah, I only had a little over 600 health left. But I was still able to pull the rug from under her. (Does that even work in this case?)

In other news, Emily got a new outfit, and leveled up to 14. This now means that in one level, she will be able to wear all new gear and purchase a castle and land. She doesn't really want a castle just yet because she's still pretty attached to her dorm. You all should see it, it's just gorgeous! I'll have to take some pictures of it and show you guys. It's so neat and organized. She calls it her library because there are 31 (let me know if I remember incorrectly, Emily) books in the room. (Emily loves to read, in case you couldn't tell.

And, finally, I was on twitter today, and found this picture posted by Merle. I've been told he has a mean right-hand swing. Better watch out KI!

I love how well KI puts the characters into the pictures and makes it look SO realistic! It's so inspiring for me (I love to use PhotoShop and image editing software, as you can tell from the few edits I've made [Eggbert's Vacation, and the Troll Drummer.])

I believe that's everything that I have to talk about...oops, I almost forgot. Tomorrow I'm going to be posting my idea for the storm lvl 58 spell. (I can't post it now because we're going over David's now.)

My New Spell List

Ok, so I suppose you could say in honor of my 35th post, I'm sharing with you guys what I think the new spells should be.

Here are my ideas so far:

Ice:

Polar Bear - A mound of snow being pelted by a blizzard appears on the battlefield. Out of nowhere a fierce polar bear slinks onto the fielde through the blizzard. BAM! THe polar bear punces onto the victim dealing around 600 for 8 pips.

Fire:

Eruption - A black volcano sprouts out of the center of the field. The entire battle field rumbles. WOOOSH! Lava comes spewing straight up from the volcano. It lands down on each enemy dealing 700 for 8 pips.

Storm: (I have two)

Vicious Storm - Clouds start to form over the battlefield. CRACK! A huge blot of lightning pierces the layer of clouds. Then another blot hits, closer to the targeted enemy. More bolts hit, quicker in succession, slower going from the player to the enemy. Then all is still...BAM! It hits the enemy dealing 800 damage for 8 pips. (I was saying 8 pips right?)

Lightning Rod - A stormy ocean appers on the battlefield. You see a small island in the distance. The camera slowly zooms in on it. It's the same island that the storm house is on, but there is only the tower. We see Triton jump out of the water and ZAP! sends a lightning bolt straight at the tower. (I have no idea why, just to look cool I guess.) The electricity is absorbed into the lightning rod. It crackles as the camera zooms in on it, so it is all that is on the battlefield, the tip of the tower and the rod. It then harnesses all the energy from the zap, the rod starts glowing and shaking. BOOM! It fires a bolt at all enemies dealing 600 damage for 8 pips.


Myth: (I also have two)

Werewolf - A misty dead forest grows on the playing field. You hear a howl in the distance. You see a chadow pass by quickly. Out of the center of the forest a wolf leaps out onto the enemy, dealing 500 for 8 pips.

Lion - A Colloseum (sp?) appears out of the doors bashes a chained lion. The lion roars, breaking the chains. It growls, and charges at the enemy. It deals 500 for 8 pips.

Life:

Poison Ivy / Thorn Madness - A spiked thorn pierces out of the battlefield. You see two more. More keep growing until the field is tangled with them. One gigantic one comes out and wraps around all the enemies, dealing 250 per turn, healing 250 to all players, per turn for 3 rounds, for 8 pips.

Death:

Gargoyle - An old cathedral comes out of the center of the field. On the tip you see an ancient gargoyle. It breaks out of it's stone casing, leaps off the building and flys at the enemy, dealing 650 damage for 8 pips.

Balance:

Chaos - A cloaked figure poofs onto the field. He winks at the caster and snaps his fingers. All traps on players turn to shields, and all shields on enemies turn into traps. (The traps / shields would be worth the same percentage, so for example, an 80% ice shield on an enemy would become an 80% ice trap. The cloaked figure would look exactly like on the Cloak treasure card. I haven't seen the animation for this, as I don't want to get rid of my only Cloak card, so I don't know if the figure on the card is even use in the animation. Please let me know if you've ever seen the animation for Cloak.)

That's all I've come up with so far. I have an idea for the storm one but I still need to figure it out.

If my damage amounts seem a little unfair, please let me know. I have no idea how much each school should be doing, I just came up with the spells.

Celestia Artwork Part 3

x Yawn x



I just got up from an hour-long nap. I guess I was more tired than I thought. I was taking a break from my homework and BAM! It was time for supper. (My Mommy woke me up :D)


Anyway, back to the important stuff. So, Friendly and the other bloggers, but me, got a new wallpaper update. Here it is:





So, this littlef crab-man is brown, not red like the other one. It seems like he is friendly, so like Friendly said, it's probably a minor NPC. (A character in the game.)


Yes, I promised to put up my spell list for lvl 58 or whatever level the new spells will be at. But, I still have a few finishing touches to add to the descriptions. No, I don't really have time to make pictures of what they look like because

  1. I'm not very artistic (starting a new piece of art. I'm good at re-doing things that already exist. I need a reference better than my imagination, at least until I get a little better at getting all my ideas out onto the paper, and get a little more style of my own.)
  2. I just don't have that kind of time.


So, I'll put those up as soon as I can.



In other news, I'm now part of the level 10 club in Moshi Monsters (link in sidebar.)






Look how happy he was when he leveled up. ^

Guys, if you want to start a Moshi Monster please use this link:

In the bottom right of the screen it will say "Not a member? Adopt Now." Click on that sign and we will both get extra rox (the currecny in Monstro City.) It's really a very fun game. You can read about it more here.

Power Nova

Yeeeha! I did the last spell quest in the game (At least until Celestia... I'll make my new spell list tomorrow ;D) Two days ago I leveled up thanks to the Fabulous:

LILI MA!!!!


x hold for applause x

w00t! "I LOVE YOU LILI... x mumbles x even though your a dirty good for nothing traitor..."

So here's my current stats:


Yeah, I'm pretty excited about 50% Power Pip!

So, I ported home and got the Tutorial Tip (Everytime I say "tutorial tip" I hear it in Gamma's voice, per the tip for n00bs. If you said that in Gamma's Voice you get +25 Brownie Points!)


I'm not going to post all my screenshot of the questline, but along the way I met what looks like what a death troll spell would look like:


You can't tell from this picture, but he had glowing read eyes...spooky!

Of course, I easily pulled the rug from under him!



(You can see the red eyes there^)

So I got the Harmonious Crystal from the Necropolis, and moved on to fight the Plague Oni, and put his essence into the crystal because he can have a deadly disease, but not die. (PERFECT BALANCE! [yes, that is a flash game...])


I had some intense help from my good buddy, Eric Hawkdreamer, and Talon SpiritThief (Angel DragonGem [not the one from YouTube] is his life wizard, which is where I met him. So, I still call him Angel ;D)

Of course we pulled the rug from under Ideyoshi, as well.


Then, with a bruised tailbone, he turned into the Plague Oni.
Of course, we got a picture together before the battle.


So, Eric and I "Oni Vs Oni" 'ed this guy:


ONI WINS!
I filled up my crystal with the plague,


and then stopped over at Jared's to have it set. (He did a fabulous job btw!)



Oh Blaze, you shouldn't have...


Then, Good Ol' Alhazred made me smash the "One In A Million" piece of jewlery in front of the Krokosphinx because I "have to give something to get something of equal value" or something along those lines.



Then, Our Lady Judgement came and granted me the Power Nova spell. Alhazred rewarded me with the "Master of Balance" badge and a nifty Hydra pet, Princess Roxy.




Here's a nice picture of me with my new badge and Roxy equipped:



Sorry this is such a lengthy post, but I'm just really excited about finally becoming a Master of Balance. Yeah, the n00bs will be flooding me with friend requests, but that's why it's a privacy option.

I have to go now, we're going out with David's family for Mother's Day.

Harriet, When are you posting?

Fast foreward to about 00:32



That's what most of you want to ask me. ;D

I've just been really busy lately, and I hate it. XD

So yesterday I went with my friends to the library to hang out and "do homework" Ok, you got me, there wasn't too much homework-ing going on. But, we had fun. Yes, I could've been a diligent blogger and posted there, but to be honest it slipped my mind.

I hope you're all having a fun week. I know I am. On Monday, I hid in my friend, Kaleigh's, locker. It was hilarious. (Yes, my friends, Dana, Melissa, and Saadiya [We call her "Soap", "Saad-bob", and "Saadaas" sometimes. Long story, maybe someday I'll explain it.] were outside her locker making sure I was ok in there. It's surprisingly roomy in there. (No, kids don't try this at home.) When she opened the locker she didn't even notice I was in there until she tried putting her stuff in and it would fit. Then of course, she screamed and jumped back 20 feet.

I think that's all the exciting things to talk about for today.

Best Day Ever!



Wake up in the morning, I met boo-giiiiie
Guess who ported? It was Friend-llllyyyy

Yeah, that's right! Yesterday Boogiewoman and I planned to meet up on Wizard101.




Mister Tyson was pretty excited, huh? So was I!


XD So, we went over to my wizard house, to show her around. She loved the stairs! (Doesn't everyone? ;D)



She then said that she brought a surprise for me. I figured it was a pair of those Seraph Wings that taunt me so. It was a surprise far better than those silly things will ever be!


A very special person ported in.



Yeah, it was Friendly!!! Man, my jaw hit the floor! I screamed! I was so excited! I mean, you follow this person for so long (not like a stalker...) and then you become so connected with them. And, when you actually meet them, it's just the best feeling in the entire Spiral. I couldn't stop smiling the entire day.


So, we went around my house, Friendly says it's better than his! I honestly don't believe that. My little villa is bestuffed with liquid fun though. ;D (I swear that liquid fun thing is from one of Friendly's posts, but I can't seem to find it. I: x shrug x)


Friendly had to leave for a few minutes to go help someone. So Amber showed me around her houses. (Yeah, plural!) She has the WC house, and mansion, and the storm house. (Kyle has the life one XD) They're all pretty empty, so there's pleanty of room to add more awesomesauce! She's pretty excited to start filling them up, so they look more house-ey.


After going through the houses, she asked if I had any quests to do atm. I obviously said yes (Busy busy Blaze) and we went off to fight Herkir. Yeah, pretty pathetic to call for help on. But, I did try to solo him...once. I was defeated right before I was going to get him. I absolutely hate it when that happens. (I think I actually started going to do the sidequests after that defeat.) Anyway, while Amber and I were getting ready to go in, guess who came back? That's right! Friendly!


So, then we all went in to fight Herkir and won, thanks to Friendly's Scarecrow. (Speaking of the Scarecrow spell, I was flipping through Friendly's older posts, and found this one. He was in the test realm, trying out the new lvl 48 spells. The quest for Scarecrow looks pretty easy. (I'm not looking foreward to the Power Nova quest. I:)

In other news, Friendly gave me an insider tip that we won't be able to trade enchanted cards after the new patch. So make / trade while you still can. (There goes the treasure card business I started a while ago. XD Actually I stopped that after a week, I got tired of it.)

I bet you're wondering why this post is so late, huh? Because I've been doing my History project like a good little sorcerer. ;D

(If you read the whole post before the music stopped you get +15 Brownie Points!)
