Most Horrifying?

[Kebron]

So another thread got me wondering, people were admitting to some very... Lets call it 'risque' activity in very public places and other odd stuff they've gotten up to at various points in their Arm careers. The whole conversation about 'most embarassing' got me thinking about what the poor invisible staff members (or hell even unlucky magickers or stealth kings) May have walked in over the course of their own Armageddon careers.

SO, who has walked in on some disturbing stuff and whats the craziest you've seen?

Alternatively, whats the funniest?

As my namesake, I happened to know one of the people I was paying to do some work was "in the Tooth". After slight investigation, I realized he was in one of the booths. But fuck it, I'm a goddamned Templar. So I bust open the curtain and walk in, to

OOC: Uh.... Consent?


At which point my Templar, who gave absolutely negative shits about what commoners do with their peeners, continues to stand there, while the two people fussed and got their stuff in gear.

I don't know if it was horrifying for ME, or for them, to suddenly have a Templar walk in while you're doing the deed.

I've walked in on furry porn.

I've had a 80 day assassin nearly starve to death while being locked in a room with two bards that textfucked for 4ig days.

I've also had a staff member send a message of laughter to me while mage 1, 2, 3, and 4 sat around playing kruth with some magickal npc type creatures joining in on the game. Casually talking about the days events. It was 3am and we were bored in our defense. How the fuck is that not in my account notes?

Walking in accidentally on Quick tops my holy shit heart in throat moment, even though we were at eachothers throat all the time.. bumping into eachother accidentally and me being the only one not prepared was scary. Still remember my hands shaking so bad it was hard to type flee.

I've walked into a dark cave to a page-long screen scroll of moderate bites and parried attacks on a 60-day warrior.

I've had three bahamets walk into a room at once to aggro me and another PC, who wisely spam-fleed.

There was an RPT in the sewers where a whole bunch of powerful characters died. I got swept up in it all as a 1 hour old character simply by being in the right place at the right time. Some creature from some netherrealm kills all the powerful PCs while I survive it all simply by saying "oh shit, oh shit, oh shit" in the corner and not attacking anything.

That was my closest brush with the Epic stuff that can happen in Armageddon.

This wasn't me walking in on something horrifying but rather something horrifying walking in on me and my group.  One of the scariest things I've ever seen:

An armored bahamet has arrived from the west.

An armored bahamet joins an armored bahamet's fight!

I once had a half-elf that thought it was the only way of life to live in the wild and hated others for killing his animal ''friends''. Well one day while sleeping he heard a growl and got mauled by a tembo. It left him alive, though. It appeared as though the tembo failed to kill him. I made a move and the tembo noticed me again. And so did its little tembo children that played around with each other. The last message I got was something like,

A viscious tembo leaps at you!

Some animations the Imms did while inside of a certain crypt that is now gone from the game world. Those were awesome...really brought the true sinister side of the game world out to me.

Back in 2007 or 2008 my elf came across a strange cousin trespassing in the grasslands east of Tuluk. Being territorial and suspicious (with good reason), I questioned the fellow for a while and I thought both his story and the necker himself were pretty odd. So, before long I ask my friends over the Way to take a look at this and they arrive, invisible. For various reasons we eventually agree that this seemingly peaceful yet very odd elf is either a spy for The Evil Powers That Be (from an elf's perspective) or even one of their vile servant creatures.

I think there were two or three elementalists, one powerful sorcerer and one buff ranger present. Cutting the strange elf down took but a brief moment, but when the body hit the floor... The shit hit the thornbushes. There was so much evil nastiness in that poor elf's husk of a body that it started to eat away at the ground and corrupt all nearby plants in an instant. It ate straight through the various means of protection that we scrambled to erect. In the end I think we blasted it with fire and fled. We didn't stop until we were in the Mantis Valley.

I might be mistaking it for another encounter, but the ranger among us was receiving very nasty visions as we fled and had a taste of dry bone in her throat for a long time afterwards.

That was a damned horrifying encounter, just a tiny notch worse than running into a gith defiler.

Funny and satisfying encounter: Going head to head with a mantis and beating it so brutally that it turned and fled, screeching.

Awkward and strange encounter: Meeting the lone Samos the Red in the Mantis Valley.

I had a vivaduan that was part of the Plainsman's merry band.

He had a belief that he should talk to certain unnamed powers in a certain type of place.  So he did.  Only...as soon as said unnamed power showed up, it started to totally freak out.  Suddenly we were confronted by an eldritch power.  And then one of his friends rescued him...with exactly the wrong spell.

In the end, eldritch power came to our little hidey hole, and after several battles, my viv died.

There was definately an "omfg what have I done" moment in there.
