The Journal of Filbus Furyfoot:

"I received orders from Mayor Gubbin that the ancient dragon Trakanon had threatened to put a plague on all the JumJum of Rivervale.

In such dire circumstances, I knew it was time to take back up the sword. I joined a powerful army of Dragon Fighters and led them in glorious combat against the fel Trakanon. Our band of 18 pals were victorious, and the JumJum safe again!"

Rivervale has two major exports: Jumjum and Pipeweed. One of our eternal enemies is the dread brownie, Nillipuss. I had slain him a dozen times, but still he returned. I knew this then to be the work of a God.

I captured the 'puss. He would not answer my questions willingly.

"You should go, Mayor Gubbin," I said.

"What - must you torture him?" The kindly Mayor asked in fear.

"Gubbin - GO!"

And he went. I turned to Nillipuss. He would receive the worst torture imaginable. No breakfast every other day!

Under this extreme torture, which is illegal in the realms of Rivervale and the Thicket, Nillipuss finally cracked. He was the lackey of the Goddesss Tunare, who had developed an insatiable Jumtooth - the absolute WORST of teeth.

With my twin blades I cut a path of death through the Plane of Growth, Tunare's home. Many weary hours later I came to a small rise and in a valley laden with empty Jumjum bottles, I found the putrid Goddess herself!

http://i.imgur.com/wOgrzYe.jpg

But we were ambushed! By Nillipuss's uncle Ordro the Unclean! I wrestled him to the dirt and forced him into submission - he admitted to orchestrating the foul plot to steal our Jum.

http://i.imgur.com/YehzZEb.jpg

It was time. Standing with an army of powerful Elf Lords and Ladies we assaulted Tunare. These other Elvish heroes (and villains) had no noble pursuit other than the lust for Tunare's enchanted robes.

http://i.imgur.com/zliVGHA.jpg

At long last the Jumthief perished to my enchanted blades, blades bound by honor to forever defend the sacred Vale. The leader of the elvish army of dragon warriors perished, but the Last Guardian of Rivervale reigned supreme, despite taking a few hits from the terrible Tunare herself.

http://i.imgur.com/xiKLZR3.jpg

I thanked Rallos Zek for my strength and swiftly departed home to my dear Misty Thicket, where I would spend many days recuperating my strength and enjoying the wholesome companionship of young hobbits.

I eased my blades into the soft bellies of these evil elves as easy as a hobbit spreads too much butter over too little toast.

It had been long since Neriak faced the wrath of Rivervale.

http://i.imgur.com/KBytRvk.jpg

A door swung open and a familiar evil elf ran towards me, howling in rage. Divn L'Crit, my old foe from the mid level 50s. We had many spats, and he had driven me from the gates of Neriak many times.

His foul magics peeled back the fur from atop my feet, but I caught his blades and gave battle.

http://i.imgur.com/5TAmcTr.jpg

I have avenged the death of my comrades, the Deputies of the Thicket! One Shadowknight down, I knew that this night would be red with merriment.

Ah... If only it were so simple...

I marauded the Foreign Quarter and what did I find? A sight that broke my heart. A treacherous hobbit, Falian Stonethrower, my third cousin twice removed ... he was once as close as to me as perhaps a shady halfling had been, before the Jum soured his mind and darkened his spirits.

http://i.imgur.com/W9C2lqh.jpg

I killed him before a wall of skulls set with glowing green eyes.

But turning my blade on a fellow hobbit, no matter how treacherous, weakened my spirits and soon I was in danger for my life...

Thank Rallos that Grimbil Higgins, the hobbit who once married me to the noble Grumphilda, appeared just in time to Completely Heal my battered body!

[skarlorn]

http://i.imgur.com/vun1xFx.jpg

Yet I was still up against many foes! I weaved between them and struck down ChonChon, the brute who I knew had eaten at least three of my fellow holbytlan.

http://i.imgur.com/YtEB2kA.jpg

My blades were sated - the Foreign Quarter lay eerily quiet. I had bigger foes fish. Fries to finger... fish to face?

I contemplated my idomatic deficiencies over a bottle of Jum behind this creepy glowing thing. I sighed, wishing Sneaksy or perhaps Kraddok could tell me the Lore of this strange ethereal glyph - for I could not be sure if it was a trap that would fry my furry feet.

We passed deeper in, arriving at the Third Gate.

A young evil elf named Tartusianrose darted by, fearing my righteous, undefeatable blades.

Her shrieking voice was a klaxon that alerted the guards, and soon I found myself with another fight on my hands.

http://i.imgur.com/DFo73ly.jpg

I disarmed and summarily dispatched the villainous guards Tolax n' N'mar.

RIVERVALE WILL BE REVENGED!

http://i.imgur.com/oWW7IIh.jpg

Grimbil and I were undefeatable. We had stormed Neriak without so much as a scratch. At last, we came to the cursed castle of the Shadow Knights of Neriak.

At last, Gubbin and the Deputies would be revenged.

http://i.imgur.com/skklCWE.jpg

We snuck inside, relying on stealth and skill. We found a room filled with five evil elves, all of them wearing armours burnished, yet untouched by enchantment it seemed. I had, at last, found my targets, the Guild Masters who trained the evil Shadow Knights who had attacked my darling Deputies. Deputies who are less warriors, and more just curious souls who want to wander the Thicket and sip the finest Ales Norrath has to offer. For this, and their magical Squad rings, they have been hunted - they have been slain. NO MORE! RIVERVALE WOULD BE REVENGED!!!

FOR RIVERVALE!

FOR GUBBIN!

You should have waited for Sneaksy, that glyph you passed through must have cursed you somehow.

Hopefully Grimbil made it out alive.

[mattitude]

Having been born of goodly parents, being taught in the ways of farming for jum jum stalk, I had never been the adventurous type. I had only heard of the tales of the might Filbus, of his heroic battles to keep our people safe.. our people had placed our trust in him, taking what he had done for us for granted, expecting TOO much from him. Today I witnessed the slaughtering of our faithful deputies. To my horror, the evil that had infected our town even found joy in the slaughtering of our peaceful people. This evil even tried to bribe me - bribe a halfing with gold and platinum? How little do they know of the love we have of our home! I cannot stay still and do nothing no more. I am abandoning my simple life as a farmer, no longer will I spend my nights in the Fools Gold tavern, drinking too much, eating too much. We must stand with FILBUS, stand for RIVERVALE, we must all take up arms in the defense of our city!

[skarlorn]

The Hobbits are rising... the farmers are roused!! Jumjumfarmer has a noble heart and makes my own soul tremble with hope, sing with joy!

Please, dear readers, consider the honesty, the loyalty of our common Jumjumfarmer, turning down bribes from the evil skeletons that regularly ransack Rivervale.

Now, compare it to the cannibalistic, heartless tendencies of the evil evils who have struck Filbus down...

http://i.imgur.com/YbxYCsW.jpg

THIS IS EVIDENCE OF THEIR EVIL WAYS!

No, this sick elf did not brandish his magics and defend his city gates. Like a shit-clawed carrion bird he pilfered the body of his own guardians for a few platinum pieces. No honor - only fear and greed.

If you are rattled to your core, do not despair. The hobbit uprising has just begun. We are seeking more noble-hearted adventurers for our next strike to defeat the elves and to free Filbus!

I heard whispers across Odus that Master Yael has learned the secrets of Miragul's Highway from the ghosts of the old sorcerer's that roam throughout the Ruins of Old Paineel.

He has dispatched his minions via this ancient highway to gather him Jumjum, which he hoards at the bottom of the city behind a giant vaulted door. So crazed is he by this sacred drink that he refuses to stray from his stockpile, even though the door is protected by Brell himself.

I wish SNEAKSY would post here

[skarlorn]

Grimbil used his powerful artefacts to bring the whisper of life back into my body. How he peeled the jellied slime that the ShadowKnights had turned me into from the floor of their guild hall and restored me to full power is beyond my reckoning. Safe to say, I went straight back to Rivervale.

I trained harder than ever before under the whip of Gatmanno King. I ran for HOURS! When my belly was slightly smaller, we headed back to Rivervale where I met with my herald and protege, Jumjumfarmer.

I gave him some gifts and he gave me terrible news. More deputies dead!

We knew the Priest of Discord was to blame. Without a moment's further hesitation, we ambushed him!

http://i.imgur.com/aeb1DTX.jpg

The righteousness of our lynching was heard by another Hobbit hero, the venerable Willfight, my own cousin. He slit his own throat in Sebilis to appear in Rivervale and place several well-timed kicks into the PoD's balls.

The Priest killed Jumjumfarmer with a single AoE and my heart was stricken. But before I knew it, my young protege returned and got back to fighting! A warrior after my own heart!

http://i.imgur.com/o28MpUJ.jpg

At last we cornered him and beat him senseless.

http://i.imgur.com/gG04Mif.jpg

Then, we stripped his robes and took his staff, which was given to Jumjumfarmer the Herald of Rivervale.

All in all, it was a good day for the hobbits of the Vale, and now I must rest for my eye turns back to the dark gates of Neriak and I know there will be a terrible struggle for their lives.

[Eabon]

Some of your posts are very cool Filbus, I enjoy reading them. I used to take on the PoD every time I was in Rivervale; I didn't do it in many other cities, not sure why.

This one time two or three years ago I was mucking around in EC and this gnome whose name I forget - a gnome enchanter though - fully flipped out at me, cursing at me with the utmost enthusiasm, claiming that I was related to Filbus somehow (surname similarity), and so clearly I must be a heinous villain of the highest order! It was actually very strange, the guy wasn't kidding or anything! Totally lost his shit.

I don't usually get that vibe from all of your roleplaying activities though; do you actually have this terrible murky past that you conceal beneath the veil of the humble Roleplayer?

Anyway, there's actually this thing I've been planning to put on for a while now, that I know you'll be very interested in participating in. Just as soon as work lets up and I get a little bit of free time to play. A few months maybe. I'll let you know.

Lol! I did notice a screenshot of you a few months back with the surname Furryfoot. My surname is Furyfoot... very funny to me that we both chose different versions of the pun.

As to the gnome enchanter and the suggestion of a dark past... sounds mysterious... intriguing... *queues backstory theme music*

In reality, Filbus is one of the most convoluted and twisted halflings alive. If you follow his story back to the Horror of Runnyeye, you'll see the rise and fall of a hobbit who led many young ones to death. In fact, I've probably led about 20 low level halflings into the depths of Runnyeye, just to let them get encumbered by loot and then teleport out. Filbus lost the favor of Bristlebane and ended up murdering many people while entertaining the favor of Cazic Thule, eventually coming to grips with his deep personal relationship with Rallos Zek (chronicled in A Halfling's Odyssey). As a Zek-sworn defender of the Vale, Filbus can be quite merciless. I have killed iksars outside the seb orb when they tried to hammer off of me. I once killed an Ogre in EC tunnel because he insulted Rivervale. Furthermore, the adventures of Filbus once were deadly close to the nefarious Greengrocer.

And as a non RP player? Yes.. Darkness... great darkness and power and corruption!

One time led an HS "raid" into south and a level 60 gnome enchanter got killed by our pullers and he lost a favorable setup in the cubby of South Wing. This is probably the gnome enchanter who messaged you.

The most scandalous thing I ever did was take not one, but TWO copies of the Illusion: Iksar spell from an officer in Knights Who Say Ni; I took it on Filbus and then when he offered another one to guild, logged to my enchanter and took that one. Even more scandalous is that I felt so bad I ended up paying the guy back a couple days later.

But, there are plenty of ppl whom I have trolled. Filbus is a halfling after all and if you follow his stories there's plenty of trickery in the spirit of our God Bristlebane.

Does that count to make a dark history? Another potential scandal is that I RP-married a dwarf instead of a halfling.

Let the people of Norrath be the judge!! :cool:

And yes, let me know ... it would be great to do something together!


Some of your posts are very terrible too Filbus.

this is obvious as my Rivervale Vanguard thread has only 3 stars! Bound to have a few misses though with as much content as I've made :)

[skarlorn]

I would just like everyone to know that my personal essay to Eabon comes out of a deep feeling of love for him.

When Filbus was a lowly level 10 hobbit warrior and I was a total noob, I was led thru the dark reaches of Kithicor... immediately upon exiting the Vale I saw Eabon!! Wearing full Cobalt and wielding LIGHTSABERS! <TMO>!

And then I knew that if I believed in myself, I may also achieve greatness!

Double post

[mattitude]

There has been an awakening in Rivervale. We will sit still no more! We unite under the banner of our dear Mayor Gubbin under the leadership of Sir Filbus! The evil that has laid siege upon our home must be stopped. All those who oppose take heed of our warnings! War and discord has no place in our home Leland. We will rise up and unite to keep our home safe!

Under Rivervale's banner we claimed the bridge.
I drove my sword into the chest of an evil elf and we took the courtyard.

But soon I scented the stench of magics fouler than Xorbb's.
An evil eye floated there and the ice howled.

The fur on my feet froze. I suddenly heard the tolling of a great bell, coming from deeper within the city. We all paused in combat. Behind the aching note of the bell came a dark cackle.

I knew then we had lost the first of our company, and that the Dark Lords of Neriak jeered at us from afar.

http://i.imgur.com/CmsLW0m.jpg

I knelt at the feet of noble Haydien. A halfling wise in the ways of grasses.
He has held many grasses in his hands and carries seventeen different breeds of grass within his purse of walrus-leather. Three of these grasses are mundane but sweet and will soothe a belly upset by too much mead. Seven of these grasses are magical. Yet, I shall not reveal the secrets of Haydien's grass lore. I knelt at his grass-stained feet as the battle raged on.

The evil elf wizard Gath N'Mare nearly blasted me to bits, but a savage warrior whipped his hand and cut the flesh to the white bone beneath his blue skin.

http://i.imgur.com/munKMzJ.jpg

The tide of darkness did not cease from the unholy corridors of Neriak. Though we had broken the gate and claimed the Foreign Quarter, naming it Rustler's Gate, we now faced the Second Battalion.

Broken swords and shields littered the ground as we beat our enemies senseless. I took an elf by his ears and ripped them off and laughed as he howled, pawing at the useless, gaping holes. I took out a bottle of fermented Jum juice and sloshed it on his face and struck him with my fiery blade until he fell into a puddle of burned, lacerated meat.

EVIL ELF EVIL ELF THE HOBBITS RISE TODAY!

By the mist of the thicket,
By the River in the Vale

We had taken the Third Gate. All now that stood between me and the Revenge of my people was the Red Keep.

http://i.imgur.com/9FKvumt.jpg

Before the fanged gate of the Red Keep we lost another hero.

http://i.imgur.com/JX15Y7g.jpg

On a perch of basalt I stood with Grimbil. He had gambled with Bristlbane and won.. and so Haydien had returned to his desecrated corpse and would live to whisper with the grasses again...

If we could escape Neriak (or should I say, NEW RIVERVALE?) alive.

http://i.imgur.com/f2iXLxS.jpg

At long last my eyes beheld the bloody walls where I had met my match. Not long before the Shadow Knights of this accursed fortress blasted me to smithereens and my corpse was naught more than a jellied slime upon the smooth stones.

But now we were many and they were few. When last there had been five to my one, now WE had three to their one!

http://i.imgur.com/7KDqhGl.jpg

We rushed into the halls, heedless of any danger, of any incantation or trap.

A thundercloud brewed outside the gates of New Rivervale, but when it heard the song of our battle against Xon Quexill, it shook its head and retreated to Lavastorm Mountains.

http://i.imgur.com/MbfhQoy.jpg

They showed us the fury of the Dead. But I have seen the Dead. I have been the Dead.

http://i.imgur.com/bgaeVFP.jpg

Xon Quexill fell. No doubt his final curse had some power, but we laughed it off, kicking his body and drinking Jumjum. We quickly pillaged his corpse and found a most interesting robe.

There was a flurry of bidding and it was bought for the price of Ten Dragon Horns.

http://i.imgur.com/zDAtegT.jpg

The robe of Xon Quexill was darker than the inky depths of Kaesora. I had never seen a robe enshaedn as this. I made a note in my ledger to add this to the Secret Annals of Rivervale.

http://i.imgur.com/1zFyJrw.jpg

But soon the guard outflanked us. We were surrounded. In a mad dash we raced back towards the commons, but one after another the evil elves struck us down and befuddled us. With their magics they narrowed the twisting hallways and more than one of our number heard the jeering laugh of Death.

http://i.imgur.com/zO707Um.jpg

Beneath the Eye of Innoruuk I made a final stand against the revenant remains of the Shadow Knight Guildmasters.

Haydien plunged his hand into his walrus-leather purse and whispered words of Mistiness, and as he cast the yellowed blades of Karana into the cold halls of Neriak, I felt a familiar pull on my battered soul...

[skarlorn]

http://i.imgur.com/6nRHUhe.jpg

Home! Home at last! By the bristling mustache of Bristlebane, Haydien had pulled us from a desperate stand. From the cold pillar in an icy lake of Neriak, surrounded by our foes, he had saved us!

I hugged him and we took off our shoes and ran about the warm grasses of Rivervale as might two young hobbit children, without a worry in the world, without the looming grip of tax collections.

But, I am no young hobbit. Many are my battles, and many are my scars. Many are the broken bone which twist my body over and force me to think of the terrible times, the evil things I have done in Defense of Rivervale.

Soon I was shaking. Pallid. Haydien could not cheer me.

http://i.imgur.com/WOgZgTj.jpg

I went to the Fool's Gold. I placed my platinum upon the bar. Mac Deeppockets looked at me.

"Awright there Lord Filbus?" he asked me.

I nodded and gave him a smile, thinner than the moon a day before it's due.

"I will need a drink, master Deeppockets."

Home. At last. Rivervale.

But, why did I feel such unease?

By the Mist of the Thicket
By the River in the Vale

In one eye I see the fire and fury
In the other I behold the grinning skull of Death.

[Lhancelot]

Nice work Skarlorn, lots of working parts to spin this tale!

I am most impressed by the amount of alcohol Filbus consumed after the tumultuous battle in the end. I am guessing you must have his tolerance maxed rofl.

***Immersion almost ruined when some woodelf named Zalea actually says after such an epic moment when Xon Quexill was slain and his magical robes were stripped from his body, and I quote: "If it looks cool, we're killing one for me btw." (stupid woodelves.)

P.S. Too bad there isn't a way to have made the epic battle with all halflings that would have been hilarious and even more epic.

P.P.S. You should create an all-halfling alt guild. :D

What exactly does the alcohol do at this point to your stats, anything beneficial?

A thundercloud brewed outside the gates of New Rivervale, but when it heard the song of our battle against Xon Quexill, it shook its head and retreated to Lavastorm Mountains.

http://i.imgur.com/MbfhQoy.jpg

They showed us the fury of the Dead. But I have seen the Dead. I have been the Dead.

http://i.imgur.com/bgaeVFP.jpg

Xon Quexill fell. No doubt his final curse had some power, but we laughed it off, kicking his body and drinking Jumjum. We quickly pillaged his corpse and found a most interesting robe.

There was a flurry of bidding and it was bought for the price of Ten Dragon Horns.

http://i.imgur.com/zDAtegT.jpg

The robe of Xon Quexill was darker than the inky depths of Kaesora. I had never seen a robe enshaedn as this. I made a note in my ledger to add this to the Secret Annals of Rivervale.

http://i.imgur.com/1zFyJrw.jpg

But soon the guard outflanked us. We were surrounded. In a mad dash we raced back towards the commons, but one after another the evil elves struck us down and befuddled us. With their magics they narrowed the twisting hallways and more than one of our number heard the jeering laugh of Death.

http://i.imgur.com/zO707Um.jpg

Beneath the Eye of Innoruuk I made a final stand against the revenant remains of the Shadow Knight Guildmasters.

Haydien plunged his hand into his walrus-leather purse and whispered words of Mistiness, and as he cast the yellowed blades of Karana into the cold halls of Neriak, I felt a familiar pull on my battered soul...

I would log into blue to fell guild leaders that tresspass on holy ground anytime.

Getting drunk will make your mana bar refill very quickly... Try it out! You'll be AMAZED!

It also increases STR slightly and fucks up a bunch of other stats.

Very useful to get a little drunk so you can autorun thru trees.

[Jimjam]

Halfling intelligence.

This is what keeps Rivervale safe.

When was the last time you saw a dragon assail The Wall?

Never! And this is how we know the system works.

http://i.imgur.com/A9CR8Fh.png

Sting operations, such as breaking the collusion of the Dark Elves with the Vile Trakanon via a single Black Arrow, this is how we keep Misty's Thicket free of dragons. Unfortunately the Dark Elf collaborator was never caught.


The layered politics of The Leatherfoot Raiders are complicated and honour duels are not unheard of.

http://i.imgur.com/xZdD1ks.png

Stony Brellians, Valiant Zekians, Greedy Agnostics are all valued employees of Leatherfoot Raider Corp (the number one provider of Norrathian Safety Hats) and all play their part in the defence of Rivervale. Bristlebane Warriors? Lets just say 'officially' such deputies don't exist...

The strongest ally of the Zekian department of the Leatherfoot Raiders are the peaceful giants of Kael Drakkel. Beset by an illegal immigration crisis on one front and oversized vermin on the other, these poor giants will do anything for the protection of our deputies.

A giant portion of Halfling intelligence is selflessly volunteered from these leads. Without the assistance of these noble, peaceful giants Mayor Gubbins would never have got his 'Ladies and Gentlehobbits, We Got Him!' moment. A glorious day where the conspirator responsible for the Runnyeye Black Elevensies attacks was finally apprehended.

http://i.imgur.com/K8APgQj.png

Such is the honour bestowed upon Jimjam by the giants of Kael, for his apprehension of their wanted fugitives and extermination of their 'large vermin problem' that they bestowed upon him THE Frostbringer and a finest set of Barbed Dragonscale Pauldrons.

Honoured possessions indeed. That is, until the pauldrons were STOLEN by an undercover operative of Neriak! Clearly it was a vendetta executed by the elf which had escaped the sting operation on the Dark Elf / Trakanon collusion all those years back.

Jimjam, being a responsible halfing, had taken out an insurance policy on his treasured pauldrons. He returned to Kael to seek his replacement pads.

After hours of queueing and staring at walls, Jimjam stood at the feet of Head Customer Service Advisor 'Kyenka'.

http://i.imgur.com/ikUxRUa.png

He bellowed with laughter.

"Little Halfling! You indeed have quite a reputation amongst this city, but do you not understand why I am called 'Head' Customer Service advisor?"
Jimjam shrugged and began to unbutton his greaves, but quickly stopped as Kyenka continued,
"For each claim of the Kings Treasures, I must be brought a Greater Dragon's Head as tribute!" Kyenka explained.
"Word is the dragons are once again massing in the Western Wastes to take flight to your precious Rivervale. I suggest you gather your companions and set out immediately".

Jimjam was bamboozled. What had started as a simple insurance claim had escalated far out of proportion! He had never heard of anyone having being given the run around by insurers before, so he knew the threat was legitimate!

And with that the quest was set. Once again the Western Wastes would be subject to Preemptive Defence for the Protection of The Wall!

On his journey Jimjam meditated on his training. Remembering how he had defeated Vox; To stand before her breath, become completely encased in ice and as she attempted to swallow him whole become lodged in her throat, chocking the beast.

Unfortunately the same trick did not work on the giant wing worm residing in the Tower through which Jimjam had to pass. Sometimes things must be done the old fashioned way; Sword and Board.

http://i.imgur.com/0BwcqMe.png

Eventually Jimjam reached his destination (after a few gentle distractions from the good women of Siren's Grotto). The Western Wastes. Home of the Dragons, which despite the pleas of their elf army followers, are nothing more than insentient flying worms.

http://i.imgur.com/R3L6QkL.png
Note the spectres following this dragon, clearly bodyguards placed there by that nefarious dark elf again...

It was time to channel the spirits of Rivervale's greatest warriors

http://i.imgur.com/m84cttw.png

and take the fight to the dragons!

http://i.imgur.com/umbivgX.png

Thanks to the assistance of this kindly Vicar of Zek the small wing worm was no problem.

http://i.imgur.com/4wezaD2.png

Jimjam took the beast's Talisman from it's neck to remind him of the Zek's purity and the noble righteousness of making war abroad to ensure peace back home. He swore to scatter it's broodmates before they had the strength to make flight and cause unbound terror to the gentle people of Rivervale (or her allies in Kael)!

Many of these icy worms had their bellies gutted.

http://i.imgur.com/MvCK2lo.png

As the last of the broodmates was being slain, before there was time to sever the dragons heads from their corpses, a terrible rumble fell into the valley...

The party were ambushed by the greatest wing worm yet, one which some how had the power to launch her enemies far into the air.

[Sun Jul 30 17:29:01 2017] Beepity rises chaotically into the air.
[Sun Jul 30 17:29:01 2017] You experience chaotic weightlessness. You have taken 1228 points of damage.
[Sun Jul 30 17:29:01 2017] You have been knocked unconscious

[Sun Jul 30 17:29:04 2017] Ryderinthe has been slain by Von!
[Sun Jul 30 17:29:05 2017] Returning to Misty Thicket, please wait...

In a matter of seconds Ryderinthe was dead, Jimjam was blasted back to Misty Thicket and Beepity was no where to be found.

So here ends my tale. The dragons numbers are dented, and their attack on Rivervale is surely delayed but impending. Worst of all I have not replaced my missing spaulders!

I call upon my fellow Deputies of the Vale for a preemptive defence drive against the Western Dragons, for the glory of the Hobbits Democratic Republic of Rivervale. We shall festoon our necks with their talismans, wear their scales as armor and gather their heads to assure the good giants in Kael of future prosperity.

I ask you this: ARE YOU ONE WITH THE WALL?

The Dark Elves are nefarious creatures. Constantly plotting to defile Misty Thicket at the whim of their master, Innoruuk.

Lanys T'Vyl was a dark elf, but more than that. A living embodiment of Innoruuk on Antonica. She was not the only such paragon, though. In every land an Avatar of Hate walks.

There was also an embodiment of hate upon Kunark. Unusually for his type, normally concerned with the intricacies of Fear, this specimen was an Iksar of hate.

Venril Sathir was it's name.

Just as Venril Sathir was an Avatar, so was Jimjam. Well, so he claimed. The mighty Leatherfoot Raider was renowned for his claim to being the living avatar of Rolfron Zek, the dog of war. It is true Jimjam had a ravenous appetite, almost lupine in nature, and was Rivervale's consecutive competitive hotdog eater champion for many years.

Many are familiar with Jimjam's work with the peaceful giants of Kael, keeping Rivervale safe from dragons. Two of Jimjam's allies in clearing the dragons of the Western Wastes were on a quest of their own; an insidious corruption had spread over Norrath tainting Tunare's Children. It had to be stopped before Mangler the guard dog got too dangerous!

So, Jimjam sought to parley with his contemporary. Venril Sathir. Who had been dead for centuries. No problem!

The adventurers tracked down the remains of this long dead lizard to a certain 'Karnor's Castle'. While no cleric, Jimjam was not entirely closed to the abyss between life and death. As an avatar of Zek he had sent many across this divide, though admittedly it had always been in one particular and grisly direction. To death.

Taking the severed paw of an unfortunate splitpaw gnoll Jimjam squatted above the dusty old bones of the long dead reptile. With righteous fury he swung the rotten paw at the atrophied corpse, "Wake up you bastard! You good for nothing Iksar! By the power of Zek and Innoruuk you will return to the mortal plane!". Jimjam's companions looked at him confused.

As he beat away, suddenly the paw began to spark light. Fireflies danced around the old Iksar bones. Slowly the bones drew in these fires of life, and soon the dusty pile was an ethereal iksar. There stood the Spirit of Venril Sathir!

"Impressive conjuration, Zekling!" muttered Venril's ghost, "I sense you do not wake me out of charity. Tell me, what do you seek?"

"My colleagues seek to find the conduit of power that has corrupted the creatures of the land".

"So mortals, you seek to end the tainting of Tunare's children? So be it, I have no cares. My death has been caused by this foolishness and I want no more to do with it. Bring me a scroll with the knowledge of resurrection so that I may once again live. I will hand you that which you seek."

As a responsible warrior Jimjam always kept such a scroll to hand. This deal had been easier than he expected... He passed the scroll to the Iksar Ghost, which began to laugh hysterically,

"I am alive! My thanks to you. And now I will aid you in your quest for preserving the forests of Norrath. Your carcass will help nurture the soils of the wilderness!"

Venril had used Jimjam and his friends to be resurrected and now was going to feed them to the animals they quested to protect! A trick worthy of even Bristlebane himself!

There was one flaw in his plan: Halfling intelligence. Quite cunningly Jimjam had secured access to the legendary 'Phone of Bats' and already dozens of elves cordoned off the area. Venril Sathir channelled his hatred, but the elven runes inscribed on Jimjam's skin glimmered like the crystal waters of the Rivervale fishing hole, entirely unharmed and stoic as a Rivervale Trout.

Channelling the spirits of his home town, Jimjam riposted with the fury of little Chomper, striking Venril across the head thrice with his Midnight Mallet and putting the befuddled Iksar into a walking sleep.

In seconds the elf army devoured Venril Sathir like a swarm of Large Piranha, each elf taking a scale from the iksar as a memento. Jimjam and his two dragon slaying companions did not take such meaningless keepsakes. Instead the grizzled warrior wolfed a breaded sausage and presented a fist to each of his dragon slayers.

Opening his hands, in each palm lay a pulsing green stone. Exactly the conduits of power his comrades had been seeking. The natural order would be restored, and with that perhaps the dragon threat and dark elf malice could be kept at bay.

THis is awesome lore, especially given that Jimjam's surname is Dog.

For your long-standing defense of the Vale, for accompanying Lord Filbus to your own demise in Runnyeye at a young age, and for your energetic assault on our foes abroad, I hereby anoint thee Duke Jimjam of Kithicor, the Dog of War of the Rivervale Vanguard.

[Jimjam]

Thanks Filbus, Rivervale's Pocket Guide needs to arrange this in game for Duke Jimjam ;).

Unfortunately I forgot to take pictures of the next battle, so I won't bother with a real write up. In short we followed our lead on the corruption to nature by Innoruuk.

http://i.imgur.com/SGI1QJe.png

Even maritime lava dragons were effected.

A companion Halfling who had followed Jimjam through all his recent adventures, a Druid of Karana named Vivoliber, found upon the corpse of a beast a Pod of Sea Water. The perfect heat sink to be coupled with the power source from Venril Sathir. He was able to combine the two with his elaborate scimitar in order to create something new:

Grats to Vivoliber, the mighty Halfling Druid of Karana, on his epic. He truly earned it, having bravely followed DUKE Jimjam through the many adventures in the last few posts.

He made excellent use off the weapon already. Whilst on a fact finding mission in the Great Divide, Vivoliber was able to cast the weapon's curse upon foul beast Vludeen. This sufficiently allowed Jimjam to worry the worm, causing it to drop it's tail in distress like a common lizard.

Jimjam was able to take this clue back to Kael, where lead scientist Gleed was able flay the sinews from the tail and string a Bow of the Huntshafling for the newly crowned Duke.

I eased my blades into the soft bellies of these evil elves as easy as a hobbit spreads too much butter over too little toast.

It had been long since Neriak faced the wrath of Rivervale.

A door swung open and a familiar evil elf ran towards me, howling in rage. Divn L'Crit, my old foe from the mid level 50s. We had many spats, and he had driven me from the gates of Neriak many times.

His foul magics peeled back the fur from atop my feet, but I caught his blades and gave battle.

I have avenged the death of my comrades, the Deputies of the Thicket! One Shadowknight down, I knew that this night would be red with merriment.

Ah... If only it were so simple...

I marauded the Foreign Quarter and what did I find? A sight that broke my heart. A treacherous hobbit, Falian Stonethrower, my third cousin twice removed ... he was once as close as to me as perhaps a shady halfling had been, before the Jum soured his mind and darkened his spirits.

I killed him before a wall of skulls set with glowing green eyes.

But turning my blade on a fellow hobbit, no matter how treacherous, weakened my spirits and soon I was in danger for my life...

Thank Rallos that Grimbil Higgins, the hobbit who once married me to the noble Grumphilda, appeared just in time to Completely Heal my battered body!

He's not a traitor he's a slave.
