Going into the small cave northwest of Terinyo Gum found himself leveling dangerously fast by the time he found the fabled blankie of legend that he sought. Going on the rumour that the tunnels beneath this one were not as difficult for a promising adventurer he headed down. It wasn't as easy as he'd imagined but he persevered, almost coming undone by a bout of sickness but eventually returning to healh in the sanctuary of a room that smelled very much like a doctor's. Eventually finding an exit after many levels Gum emerged into bright sunlight and noticed a mountain village in the distance. Trekking there he was pleasantly surprised to find a shop, passing a strange chick standing in a fountain on the way there. Sadly the shop had little of note so he merely stocked up on rations, bid the shopkeeper a fair day and continued on his way. Exiting through some stairs that somebody had decided to hide behind a few secret doors he emerged on some plains northwestish from Terinyo, on the far side of the river. Making his way back there he foolishly almost starved along the way. Once back here he did the sheriff a favour, detouring to Lawonetheil to slew Hotzenplotz before setting off to retrieve the sad little girl's puppy. After battling his way through many levels he was somewhat surprised to come across a crystal statue with the name Rebrennok engraved into it, shining silver bracers on the ground behind it. Dispatching the creature in short order he tried on the ancient bracers and felt as ready to challenge an army. And in truth he was now somewhat better prepared to do so for these were the legendary bracers of War. Back at Terinyo, Gum returned the puppy's corpse to the little girl so she could give the cute little thing the burial appropriate to a beloved pet. He tried his best to console her over her loss but quickly realised that this was not his forte and set off with grim determination in his eye, ready to thwart the plans of the evil druid Keethrax. When Gum finally tracked down the corrupted druid for a showdown he proved somewhat troublesome, his main tactic consisting of just playing silly buggers with the lights in his cave. Gum persisted until he eventually prevailed but it was a close thing. As he stood over the druid's corpse panting with exhaustion it struck him that there was in fact a torch in his backpack that would have been a great help. Smacking his forehead at this oversight he just grunted, shrugged and proceeded to haul the now dead Keethrax back to Terinyo. Keethrax expressed his gratitude and pointed Gum in the direction of the Caverns of Chaos. Gum did not need to be told twice and struck out immediately. Gum made good time on the way to the caverns of Chaos Gum, stopping in at the pyramid to vanquish Rehetep along the way. Inside the caverns he fought many battles, clearing out a gnoll stronghold before arriving in a Dwarven town. Imagine his surprise to discover that an innocuous looking long sword he'd been intending to sell was really a blessed long sword of devastation. Gum had always believed that forewarned was not forearmed, forearmed was in fact forearmed and now he was certainly that. With a glint in his eye and a wicked grin he set out to find some monsters to try his new toy on. Venturing a few levels beyond Dwarftown he couldn't believe his luck as he opened a door to reveal a treasure trove before him. As he tried to pick up the closest item however, it promptly sprouted a maw and tried to eat him! Mimics... no problem he thought cockily, quickly dispatching the first few before being confronted by one of the larger ones, a master mimic. He'd heard of these legendary beasts and the powers they had of paralyzing their meat but was still confident. Overly confident as it turns out. The master mimic took one look at poor Gum decided he looked tasty and barbed him. As the mimic settled back to enjoy its latest meal Gum suddenly found himself regretting his decision not to blast the foul pest before it had a chance to come anywhere near him. Alas poor Gum, devoured alive by a master mimic. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Screenshot ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ######################################################### #......./.......................(.............../.......# #.......###########.#############################.......# #.......# #.# #......(# ######### #.......###########.################### ######### #.......# #..............................$......# #.......#########+###########+#########.........############# #......./...........].../.........# #........./.....+m[\!%# #.......#########.#######.........# #.........#######.....# #.......# #.# #.........# #.........# #..m..# ######### #####+# #.........# #.........# ###m############# #.....# #.........# #.........# #.@.../.......# ######### #.....#############################/# #######....>..# #.......# #.....+.............................# #.......# #....<..#########################################################.####### #................................................................[# ################################################################### Gum St:16 Le:14 Wi:14 Dx:13 To:12 Ch:14 Ap:11 Ma:16 Pe:13 N+ DV/PV: 25/16 H: 0(78) P: 104(111) Exp: 17/187256 D: 13 M: 29078 Paralyzed ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Background Information ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name: Gum Race: male Gnome Class: Elementalist Eye color: brown Hair color: gray Complexion: light Height: 3'5" Weight: 114 pounds Age: 110 (grown-up) Star sign: Falcon Birthday: 17/Falcon (day 227 of the year) YOUR HISTORY: Your parents were poor people.
