Character: Xian Antirrhinum
Event: War in Hel
Responsiveness: 10/10
Much like before, things moved at a good clip, questions were answered. I never really felt like I was waiting except on people on our side.
Balance: 11/10
Hot. Damn. The fact that we came out with the injuries we did was a miracle of good rolls. This was high CoD and it felt like it. It took careful managing of our healing items, including my own blessing to keep us in good enough shape to have a chance at the last boss and it was still VERY close. It never felt impossible, but it did feel very tense, and there was a real chance of us losing in the last two fights especially. The addendum to let us expend the last of our healing items between the last two fights was appreciated, given we never would've survived without it. It was a wire to walk and it felt like it.
Storytelling: 9/10
The only place I would dock a point is here. The overall story was really good, tying into last TS, I have no complaints about this. My only bit was that closer to the end it felt more and more like, Twila was the main character and somewhat Torgon given his propensity for securing last hits. The rest of us just kinda, existed. To an extent this is fine, given how crucial this event was for Twila as a character, it was really a minor observation by the very end.
Fairness: 10/10
Much as above with balance. It never felt impossible, but we had to work for our wins and it showed. Were our rolls less good we'd have likely died, or come out riddled with more perms than we did.
Overall: 10/10
Minus my one minor complaint in storytelling, which I think is countered by the rest of the event, I'd still absolutely love to go on more Hoovy run events.
Bonus: 10/10 for Milly, never have I been so scared as when you deleted 70% of my hp in one combo. Best cameo.
