I was beginning to believe no one in this town was capable of being straightforward. Let us Go To The Mansion

Vindsval drums his fingers against his thigh. Well Althior, what does it say?

Indeed.

Has Miderun Made a list? Oi double the thought for the vets.

Grogmas is in full swing, now to revisit my old quests and see if I missed anyone.

They start the parties EARLY across the pond. Hope you have a blast.

Vindsval walks up to the horsed figure and looks down at him, weariness evident on his overly large features. His voice rumbles deep in his chest, boulders grating against cobbles. We are here captain, what word would you have with us?

OOC: and the gifts are chosen by you correct? Based on how well you feel they fit the character? Gifts we suggest that more closely align with the characters history and temperament will be more likely to be chosen?

Poor Terry, he does seem to have the reputation of being off less than stalwart character.

W! R! E! N! GO HEROICA! By your powers combined I am Captain Heroica! Captain Heroica, he's our hero, Gonna take Pillaging down to zero, He's our powers magnified, And he's fighting on Heroica's side Captain Heroica, he's our hero, Gonna take pillaging down to zero, Gonna help him put us under, Bad guys who like to loot and plunder "You'll pay for this Captain Heroica!" We're the Heroicateers, You can be one too! 'Cause saving Heroica is the thing to do, Looting and pillaging is not the way, Hear what Captain Heroica has to say: "THE POWER IS YOURS!!"

Better?

I will add to this as I come up with clever and entertaining Items Bobby Bucks Jr. -Nose Ring of Epic Communication.

So that is how grogma works. Interesting. I am very curious to see what kind of gift, ifany, people find Vindsval the inspiration for.

The ways of unlife, . . . The giant shakes his head. Yes, let us go find the others. Vindsval HEADS TO THE SAFEHOUSE

It's all good. Thanks for the update.

Vindsval waves after the girl. Goodbye small one. May your path be long and filled with pleasant skies. His brow darkens for a moment after she moves from sight. Though what sort of a Path will one cursed with eternal childhood walk, The Wanderer on knows. Sorrow, what sort of being would curse their offspring with such an existence as that?

Then Let us do so, but perhaps there is something to see here before we leave. Vindsval takes his time, moving around the courtyard, looking for anything of interest.

Vindsval accepts the Mythril Shard. Thankyou very much Fidelia, I am pleased o have reunited you with your dear one. The giant kneels and pats both the dog and the girl on their heads. Perhaps we will meet again before this path has ended. If we do not, may The Wanderer guide you both. Farewell Small one. He stands and looks to Sorrow. Shall we continue to the Cemetery my Friend?

HURRAY FOR GROGMAS!!!!

Even the Grim One would crack a smile to see the trio walking into the courtyard of the Temple. It is not every day that you see a green, One armed, spike covered giant, playin tug of war with a puppy through a city of the undead. He walks up to the girl. Greetings one again small one. He holds out the bone, puppy still attached I believe I may have found your friend.

Not thirstyr eh little one? He thinks a moment, replaces the potion and pulls out a Bone. Perhaps this? He holds out the bone and wiggles it in front of the pup.

OOC: yep still around, just trying to get ahold of that dog. Vindsval reaches into his pouch and pulls out a POTION, and attempts to use it as a treat to bring the dog closer. Come here Fluffy Wuffy, Your master misses you. I can take you to her.

A sound plan and a clear Path. Are we in agreement?

Still attempting to get the dog to come to him. ​If Fluffy would cooperate, I say we return him to his mistress. I made her a promise and I would keep it.
