"Indeed! All the ogres in the realm. I purged it and delivered the land from the foul plague. Vanquished the Giants too, but I was younger and couldn't keep track of the numbers then." "That sounds like as noble a venture as any!" I proclaim boldly. "To battle then. Let us go and liberate this person from the clutches of her cannibalus plants!" "Affairs of the lofty with no hankering for heroism!" I proclaim loudly. Seeing the questboard with names signed on it, I remove a ring from my finger, click it to the edge of my sword, and proceed to stamp it into the parchment. I remove it satisfactorily, Petaldan Parfenius has now signed-up for Quest #142 "When stating my age, having already spoken of my acts of heroism, I have always been scolded by my parents for bearing too much pride and haughtiness."

60 years later. Pretzel 2.0 has been reborn.

I stare at Lind blankly. "Rats!" I say disappointedly. "I have killed 384 ogres in my day. Rats seems a bit low to stoop, but I suppose if that's the greatest help I can be." "Quest? Ah, is that what they call hero's acts of kindness. Well, perhaps I should head out on this quest then. Where do we go? Do we have any knowledge as to the villain's whereabouts?" I stare at Lind blankly once again.

"Quest? No. No. I'm here to do hero work. Are you per chance in need of a noble act of kindness?" "Thank you, kindly! What assistance are you in need of? It seems all the heroes are out then? I suppose that means I arrived at the right time, when I can be of the most use."

#mylifeismeaninglessnow And of course, I got the age mixed up. Clearly, he's supposed to be 5 not 3.

Thanks for the avatars, Chromeknight!

The doors of the hall swing open and in strides a confident-looking shrimp. "This is it. 'Heroica Hall' said they. I cannot say it looks like much from here. Time to find someone in need of rescue." Petaldan Parfenius casts his eyes round the hall in search of something noble to do with his time.

Wow! This is smaller than Steampunk Mafia. I will be following this for sure.

Monk Pretzel would join an allegiance with Germ and Vindsval if he thought Lind's loot was worth his doing so.

Windusky, I love you avatar. It has "Monk Pretzel Junior" potential written all over it.

If you have a problem with getting into heated "conversations" on a topic, then just avoid conversations regarding said topic.

Don't know about comfier, my brother said the US metro sucked bullocks.

Just for the record, Lind, I don't think you're allowed to have such a big signature, even if it is in spoilers. We use to keep our stats in spoilers in our signatures, but then Hinckley came a'knockin'

Strangely, I'd say the level of insanity doesn't change that much.

I doubt it would be allowed, but then again, everyone could give his or her gold to the person with the ring and him or her could buy all the items.

No, I'm pretty sure you just roll once for arc scrolls and if you succeed it effects all targets, if you fail it affects none. I really can't recall how the ether worked. I think it goes down by the amount of enemies whether the casting is successful or not and whether or not the enemies are immune to the effect, though I do remember there was some question/strange answer somewhere there.

I was joking.

But Moone Elves are everywhere, ...as brought out by upcoming 5-part quest-line.

As low as possible. If I can avoid Advanced Classes, all the better for me. (No offense met by that, just that the basic classes are so much easier and I would like to prey on the minds of newer members. ) The quests available to sign up for appear on the first page of the "Heroica Hall" thread under "Open Quests". Right now there are no quests available.

Thank you! And yes, if any QMs have battles to run. I don't mind crunching numbers. I've having a harder time injecting life into my pretty much fully prepared quest. Not sure, maybe I'll just send the pitch to Sandy and then let things go as they come. I've always been better at improv...sort of...and I think it will be difficult to get further than I have with the battles without knowing my party beforehand.

Good times! Good times! We've grown since then... In truth, I would love to sign up for a quest from you, even if it never finishes.

Oh, come on, I understand Sorrow, but Terry ain't that bad.

I don't think writing "Kaliphin" as a "state of origin" or whatever, plays any major part in...well...anything. Granted if Windusky starts trying to rewrite the map, then that would be a problem, but otherwise Kaliphin could be anywhere. It's different if you're going to be talking about dodecube in every other post is different.
