Call for info from past Butteller partipants

[bunn]

I have rashly committed to painting a scene from a past Traveller roleplaying campaign, from 2005.  Alas, it turns out that 2005 is  really quite a long time ago, and my memory of the participants is a bit fuzzy. 

I know I was Oona the Orangutan, LoA was Vera the Manly Man, and Bacchus was Binjam.

 It was the campaign where we discovered What Happened to Rushorin, visited Cymbelline, removed Vera's trousers (just to check) plotted a great deal, named space ships after sweets, discovered a silicon-based life form, and experienced epic Aslan poetry. 

I also know that  skordh, chainmailmaiden and pwwb-bethran-ihlj were present, but I can't remember what characters they had or even what species they were. 

Anyone able to remember?

I've been racking my brain trying to come up with the name of Bethran's character, and "Bethran" was the only one I could come up with, so I'm glad that this is because I was actually right. Amazing, eh?

Didn't Aurora keep wanting to sacrifice people? I seem to remember people commenting on a certain similarity between "Ooh, can I lay eggs in him?" and "Ooh, can I sacrifice him?"

My post-Butteller LJ post didn't really elucidate anything at all, but stirred a few fond memories:

I did have a swift look at your LJ post and mine for that Butteller, but we seem to have recorded very few details between us.

Primary sources eh? There the eager historian is wanting to know what actually happened, and the published sources just witter on about beer, ham, pets, balloons and Tessa Wyatt, while the only real facts remaining are tucked away in a notebook somewhere!

Even though the narrative historian will struggle with our posts, the cultural historian or the historical novelist will have loads of material to work with. Skordh indicates what happened, but we give the colour. ;-)

I write my posts about these things on the assumption that those who weren't there won't be interested, and those who were there already know about it. What I should do, of course, is write the post for myself in five years' time. I'm not sure if we could have done the second Game of Thrones session had I not posted photos of all the Lego characters and key events after the first session.

My motivations for those 2 characters were entirely different :-D

Delia killed people as an unfortunate side-effect of wanting children. Aurora killed children to prevent the unwanted side-effect of us all dying when there were problems with the ship. It worked too, as we* all lived :-D

*We being the important player characters & not the children obviously :-D
