Haiku adventure anyone?

Post by LAYF » Sat Apr 30, 2016 4:54 am

Haiku Adventure!

So, a bit like Haiku continued, except this is an adventure (or multiple if it ives that long)

Rules!
Each player may post 1 to 3 Haiku verses that must all follow the haiku rules:

read all the above?
cool, I'll start off with two haiku verses:

SETTING!
Before cars and planes
In a land plagued by terrors
and night time monsters

And night time monsters?
yes those that go bump at night
and eats men at sight

and eats men on sight
they'll even eat puppies too.
So hungry they are

So hungry they are
they go out in all weather
no matter the cost

no matter the cost.
This night the weather is bad
it's golf ball sized hail

CHARACTER

"It's golf-ball sized hail!"
Complained Trevor the elf thief.
As he looked outside.

As he looked outside.
He saw all his careful plans.
Disappearing now.

Disappearing now
that he could no longer go
to his rendezvous.

To his rendezvous,
On the south east side forest
Where friends awaited.

Where friend awaited.
Ranger, warrior and bard.
All eager to start

All eager to start
Adventuring with Trevor
And his singing blade

Still CHARACTER

HOOK

And his singing blade
Which in fact is his dear wife
transformed by a witch!

Transformed by a witch
For nothing more than spilling
some soup on the crone.

Some soup on the crone
And now transformed forever
'Til they find a cure.

Til they find a cure
or his party kill the witch
The witch who did it

The witch who did it
moves from city to city
and from town to town

and from town to town
but she always wears green hats
that's her telltale sign

That's her tell tale sign.
Trevor is quite determined
to begin the hunt.

To begin the hunt
he must leave this wretched place
but night will be soon.

But night will be soon.
so shall he brave the weather,
or the night creatures?

or the night creatures?
no there is no time to waste
he must take his haste

he must take his haste
before the blade turns ever cold
and she remains trapped

and she remains trapped
because the next full moon comes
with that leaves her soul

With that leaves her soul
an odd Idea in his mind
turns to the bar keep

Turns to the bar keep
an empty barrel I need
big enough for me

big enough for me
worn over head and body
armour for the hail

Armour for the hail
I suppose that could work out
Said the old bar keep

Said the old bar keep
I'll sell you one for five gold
It may smell a bit

It may smell a bit
"In that case make it three gold"
"Sold' it's in the back"

"sold ' it's in the back."
And so dressed in a barrel
Our would be hero.

Our would be hero
Heads out into the hail storm.
Moving quite slowly.

Moving quite slowly
And with his vision impaired
He didn't expect.
