THE CHRONICAL OF A TC

Posted: Tue Jan 17, 2012 4:56 am

We thought it might be interesting to chronicle the life of a TC - in this case Sentinel of Little Things who TC'd Adepts Jan 2012.

Born 7-10 years ago at a Tempe Face when The FONZ was active. All teams, appx 20, rolled by The Consortium there were named Little Things or Small Stuff or similar, and all the warriors were named Sentinel or The Sentinel or similar. This was "in honor" (humorous jab) of Travis Stang (His monicker was Sentinel.), a great friend, who was a little perturbed at "size jokes" since he was on the short side. Great in heart; great in intellect; short in stature; a great DM icon.

Sentinel a SZ 9 21WT frail, good damage, normal endu ST

Nice work.

I've heard the Oski Noble is a real killer. Pretty lucky you beat him.

Great story. I love that he died and came back. And then to TC! I imagine you were on the edge of your seat reading the fights. You honor to him by sharing his story.

Great job master of Consortiumites.... But anyone who knows... knows that this warrior cannot be in true honor of Sentinel at SZ 9. That's 5'7 and I heard he was really a size 5 or so. J/k never met Sentinel/Death Stud/Death Stub. I don't feel so bad as a mere SZ 10 (5' 8") thanks to him!

Come on Street! You know the programs always list the "players" at taller and bigger than they truly are. Sentinel was a true SZ 5 or 6 playing to a 9. Wink

We learned how to fight him the hard way. We use our proxied warriors to learn. Wink
