The Goblin Adventurer's League

[nikohl]

All is heading home. She wants to say the Limerick that she suddenly thought of for no reason :o

[Theis2]

Steals isn't ready to be a devout worshipper of anything yet. He'll head back thinking of the glory of another quest (or when to find the other inn)

[WearsHats]

If they don't have any more lore to share, I'm ready to say my respectful leave and depart.

[thinkslogically]

Cool stuff.

You all say your goodbyes then and head back to HQ where you find a rather lonely bard waiting for people to sell him their limericks

(I'll update the images later on)

[nikohl]

(reposting my limerick from while All was away, now that it can be "official")

First of All let me tell you my name -
That was it, I just did, it's quite plain
To see that my Teller
Was an odd sort of fella
But if you let me, I'll try to explain!

On the day of my birth, he'd no vision,
No idea of a path I'd begin on -
They pushed for a name,
"Oh alright!" he exclaimed,
And began with a stern admonition!

"First of All," said my crotchety Teller,
"Than to pester me, you should know better!
I haven't a clue,
So bugger off, shoo!
Obey me, because I'm your Elder!"

Well my parents knew not what to call
This girl bundled up in a shawl,
There's already "Alright"
And a "Shoo!", a "Good Night" -
So they had to use "First of All!"

[Patdragon]

Dashon sees the goblins return from the trip to the dawn star shrine and begins in a happy tune.

More adventurers who can go on my quest,
please do take a seat and get some rest,
I'll give you some time
to make a limerick rhyme
then i'll tell a story with an added bit of Zest

[Nerre]

Remedy joins the others on their way back to the HQ tavern.

[Patdragon]

Taking a brief break from speaking in rhyme.

Dashon gives out the 5 gp promised to All, Rightous One and Remedies, when they return from the Dawnstar.

"Here you go"

"The contest win end soon and then i'll you all of this quest I know of I'm still finishes the verses but it will be soon" He exclaims

[thinkslogically]

The goblins return from the Temple of Dawnstar and pile back into the HQ. Remedy puts her nice new dress back on while All explodes into rhyme. Mines equips the Dawnstar amulet and places his healing amulet into his inventory for the time being*

As they come in, the goblins also finally notice the presence of a new member to their ranks, heavily cloaked and sitting at the very far end of the bar. Leaves No Trace has joined the GAL!

--------------------------------------------------

@Wears: Since your hat isn't a 'real' item, you'll need to pay for your hat in-game if you want to mount the healing token onto it. Visually it will be identical (except with a healing token glued onto it), but our friendly gnome will be able to advise you

@Synch: I'm sorry your cloak currently looks like some sort of giant duvet. I will endeavour to draw a slightly better one for you, but it turns out they're kind of tricky.

[WearsHats]

Okay, sure. That makes sense. I'll go talk to our gnome friend about how to turn Spinocchio into a Real Hat. And get him to incorporate the Dawnstar amulet. Which is only apt, really. Both the hat and the amulet are buy symbols of greater beings who exist outside the realm of the GAL.

As I recall, I've got 20gp to my name. That should hopefully be enough for some appropriate haberdashery.

[BadgeAddict]

Technically, leaves no trace has joined GAL 4 for the last week or so...

[thinkslogically]

yeah I just realised that. Never mind - this way he gets to see his duvet-cloak and decide if he wants it changed in any way

[ChuckDaRighteous]

If we're getting technical so is Righteous One

[thinkslogically]

Let's not get technical Let's just leave it that everyone knows where they're goblin is currently supposed to be and I'll eventually catch up I suspect I've probably missed a couple of people out of here as well (not been following GAL 4 too closely lately so I'm not sure who was there originally and has been swapped out...)

[Synch]

yeah I just realised that. Never mind - this way he gets to see his duvet-cloak and decide if he wants it changed in any way

I think it looks more like a burqa than a duvet, but I like it as it is Thank you!

[thinkslogically]

Not a problem!

[Nerre]

Is there any open quest currently? On my phone, so i cannot read all.

[Theis2]

None yet

[Patdragon]

Very soon I will be running one, just sorting out some real life stuff. Hence the set up with the Bard

[askstoomuch]

costa checks if his equipment is done

[Patdragon]

Th limerick Contest Will end in 1 week. Then i will starting posting quest 5 details

[Tea]

Naps suddenly realizes that her just standing there and staring vacantly into space has been dragging out quite a bit, if she's going to do it she should at least find a less conspicuous place....or she could just take a nap,...yeah, that would be good.....

(excuse me while I give this goblin some much needed pep talk)

► Show Spoiler

Naps, just sitting there will get you nowhere, buck up. This is the Goblin Adventure's League, not some backwater tavern..er...no, calm down, it's a lovely tavern, but you can't just sit there and do nothing. Hm,..or wait,..as your writer I'm the one who's really in control here, aren't I?...Naps, go forth and unleash you don't have anything at the moment and you aren't throwing your money (unless that's not a tangible possession), well,...if you're sleeping you won't see me make you do...this...

p.s.Naps, I will stoop to threatening you into doing my bidding, I'd say don't try going up against me, but really, why bother warning you. It's not like I don't exactly dislike this idea...

...which somehow leads to Naps talking in her sleep....

Goblins is gobblin' but wasiit they gobblin?
Gobblins is goblin so merrillily in!
And it's really quite good
for being our food
'cept when de food 'cides t'gobble you in.

[Nerre]

I will be on holidays for a while, so if the next quests starts in may and not after may, I will not get in I think.

[Patdragon]

Dashon claps his hand together to get every ones attention

There once was a competition to Rhyme
but only four entries submitted on time,
from Rightous One, Remedies, All and Tea
time to choose who the winner will be
And sot he winner is All! I do have to Chime!


Dashon coughs and scrunching his nose as if trying to think then shrugs.

" Ok every one who entered you get 5gp if I've not given it to you yet and as a bonus you all get a better chance of going on my quest i'm about to tell you about if you sign up.

For All you have a choice for you first prize, automatic selection into my quest, a magical Pearl or a magical dagger.

Finally let me tell you a little about my quest in Rhyme Form if i may.


There once was a goblin called Tempts Fate
who accidental made an inter dimensional gate
to the mud-honey world
in which he was hurled
and escaped with a belt, which was great.

This broken dimensional gate started to leak
seeping mud-honey into our world, after about a week
it was found by some clans
who always made plans
but they didn't know their future was bleak.

As the portal was like an endless spring
the mud-honey was used for many things
from healing to food
to putting you in the mood
this great find made them all feel like kings

It wasn't to last as war was coming
clan teller had foretold the battle drumming
ÔÇ£we must hide the portalÔÇØ
the teller did chortle
ÔÇ£but to do that we must first change the plumbingÔÇØ

So a fountain was built around the flow
with magic and craft the work was slow
but hide it the must
or all would be dust
as if found there'd be even more woe.

When done, powerful magic sent it away
just in time, before the big fray
they fought hard but lost
we all know the cost
butchered by those that wanted to slay

The fountain now rests in a sort of maze
where again and again is a repeated phrase
ÔÇ£follow the vowel to the fountainÔÇØ
I believe it's in a mountain
as I have seen it in a dream or a daze.

The great dream she goblin told me
to seek out a swamp guild and see
or rather I should find
goblins with such a mind
to pass puzzles and riddles with glee

they must be warriors or brave of heart
of course they must be also very smart
they must solve each room
or it will spell there doom
but for those that want in, I know where you start."


( OOC: quest details up soon)

[ChuckDaRighteous]

For a moment I thought you meant we all won a prize. Then a sinking feeling occurred and I checked the list of characters for one with "all" in its name. Alas you were talking about Nikohl's character "First-of-All."

Freakin bards getting my hopes up!

In seriousness though, I'm glad she won since limericks are her thing. Was thinking if I had won I would have conceded the prize to her for all the red ink she scribbled over my limericks. Taking me back to my school days

There once a bard with a confusing rhyme
That made me think IÔÇÖd won for a time
Despite my witty repartee
My victory stolen away
Such glorious poetry not winning, a crime!

I await further red ink glorious winner.
