((This one is a little out of order....but makes sense with the last adventure, so figured I would add it here instead of having it delayed so long....adventure backlog....so many adventures! Thanks to Department of Fun and everyone helping out! Was fun!! We need more events on the server!!))
I woke up to the most horrible thing that could ever happen to a gnome.... I had been cursed....and wasn't a gnome anymore!!! Instead, somehow I had become a halfling! And all of my things were gone!
So I returned to Rivervale as fast as I could to find out what had happened. Surely they would know something.

When I got there I discovered that in order to see a curse specialist I would have to pay over 100 platinum! Easy enough I thought, I was pretty rich from shield money.....
But, then the 2nd most horrible thing that could happen to a gnome happened.....the bank wouldn't let me access my treasure!!! Obviously thinking I was really a halfling instead of Sneaksy the gnome.
I had to make a lotta moneys, and fast! Problem was I wasn't used to this halfling body so pickin pockets wasn't going to be happenin anytime soon.
That's when I heard about a great halfling race that was due to take place that day ...and, better yet, amongst the prizes was a ruby (though, obviously not as good as my ruby, if I could find it again)!!! With that I could easily afford to see a halfling curse specialist.
I knew what I had to do....I had to enter the race...and I had to win!
But first, I needed to train my new halfling body to prepare myself. To win, I would need every edge I could get....

But, my halfling body was so weak! Which is understandable, compared to the body of a gnome, any body would feel useless.
Luckily a nearby halfling mistook me as one of their own and shielded me with some magic to train.

It was time to train like never before......and train I did!!!

Obviously the best training for a race is bard training! If I could make it through the Misty Thicket to the great wall like this, the race would be cake!

Even though it was tough, I managed to do it! It was time to return to the city and await the race.
One by one halflings began to show up....my competition.....
Eventually even a most fancy halfling!
He seemed pretty strong, showing off his strength by picking a fight with the Priest of Discord. We cheered him on, gathering around to watch.... though this only angered the priest....and we were all punished.....

But this was no time for games!! My halfling curse was getting worse! It was unstable!!! Symptoms including random swelling ...the most dangerous of symptoms!!!

Everything eventually calmed down and I was back to normal.....though the priest looked a little different now. I was starting to suspect the fancy halfling of ...things....

More and more halflings arrived as the race start grew closer. A fellow gnome even came! Handing out fireworks! Even in a halfling race, the greatness of gnomes is still evident.
