Paid or Paved In Gold

Postby Vin Decatur » Sun Dec 23, 2007 7:47 pm

Payday! Ahh, what every person works for.
Image

King David hands me my pay slip and I check it out.
Image
Image
Image

EEP.
Umm, I'll get you a check.
However, my bank holds 4 gold, 2 feathers, an iron ingot, a dirt clod and a lantern. I'll owe you that money, Big Guy.
Image

So, PAS heads out on some fun and I leave my money and bandages with COP.
Image

So, this morning i head out to make some money to pay my debt. First, I need bandages so I head to the Troglodytes for their free bandages. I run into Lord Phreak there. He has been slaying Trogs by the wash load and not looting them. He party's me so that I can round up all the bandages. Thanks, Bro.
Image
Full of bandages I head to Honesty Gate and down to visit the Cyclopian Warriors and Titans. Just across the bridge I spot a Ettin (Paragon) and dispath him. Another appears and I send him to Snoozeville and another appears! Three Ettin Paragons back to back. "Wild.", I think.
I have NO CLUE to what lies ahead.
Image

Just in the area, I run right into another Ettin Paragon.
Image
That's Four.

I move into the temple and clear some Cyclopian Warriors guarding the door and hit this guy inside.
Image

He gives me a break.
Image
But I return the favor.
Image

Then I bump into this guy.
Image
And then his brute friend.
Image
But a Lich ctahes me and sends me to the Altar.

Outside the gate, I feel Impish (Paragon).
Image

Then, it's back to business.
Image
Image
Image

I run to the bank to make a deposit and run into him on my way back.
Image

Guess what blocks the path? A Pair-O-Gons.
Image
Image

Booger shows up and joins the fun.
Image
I assumed Booger was okay (a bad assumotion on my part. Sorry, Booger.) and head deeper inside.
Image
Oops, I missed an approaching Lich. He was mad, the ego hound.
Image

And on the way back from the Shrine, more Impishness.
Image

Bah, just an Ettin.
Image
Oops. With help.
Image

Another Pair await my return.
Image
(one had your money Booger, give me a yell.)

I'm starting to get tired.
Image

Does it ever end?
Image

Finally, I give up and go home. Bizzaro Paragon Day!

1 chest from that trio of Ettins, no arties. C'est la vie.

I have not received any arties from Doom or elsewhere.
I think I was born with Unluck.

At the Christmas party I received a artifact that means more to me than any that could ever possibly spawn.

Oh and sorry about forging your signature there KD. :D

Well, I don't know about Unluck, but I can sing the blues:
Born under a bad sign.
I've been down since I began to crawl.
If it wasn't for bad luck,
I wouldn't have no luck.
If it wasn't for real bad luck,
I wouldn't have no luck at all.

Great story!

And I see KD made a frowny face at you. Upon investigating, I learned he actually typed : ) without the space, but the default is messed up. Maybe Travis can fix it?
