((Still so many adventures to catch up on!! ...but since I'm always 16 now, I can juggle the order a little :3 Dis one goes to top! Because so good!!!)
I'd been learnins so much about vrampires lately....but if I ever ran into Mayong Mistmoore...I was gonna need to be prepared.
One day I ran into a gnomey while investigatins stuffs. Her name was Ninik, and she seemeds like a pretty smart gnomes....with goggles and everythin!!

Anyhow, we gots to talkin....and eventually began chattins about how paladins is so strong to fight vrampires.
There is a prophecy of the gnomes you hear about now and then... that one day there will be mighty gnome paladins! Lotsa people say it is crazy, but I believed it! And Ninik believed in it too!
Casually Ninik said "What if....we build one?"
As we talked more, it turned out Ninik was a legendary master tinkerer!!
Was it possible?! To BUILD a gnomish paladin?!?
She said she had been workins on special armors that acted just like magic, but instead of magic, it was science!! Faster runnins, faster hittins, so strong, so dexterity.....with something like that as a start, maybe, maybe it was possible!!
But, it turned out she needed all sorts of pieces to begin prototyping her theories.
Stuff like holgresh wings for the cooling flapinators and stuff like that.
Luckily I was a sneak gnome!! And sneak gnomes is good at gettins stuffs!
It was official! We was gonna work together and fulfill the great gnome prophecy!! The world would see a gnome paladin....a clockwork one!
So, I headed to the wakening lands! To find what we needed!!
That is when I met Wrekka, the lizard king! Not sure why someone would want to be king of lizards...but ok.

Anyhow, he was intrigued by our plans to create a gnomish paladin....and offered his assistance, even givins me so fancy items to make huntin easier!
With his help I set out into the forest...it was time to collect pieces.
Along the way a sifaye messenger ambushed us!! Well, not "us"...more him....since he was an iksar and sifayes hate them.
Luckily Wrekka was pretty strong and fought off the sifaye easily. But as it ran away, I saw a tiny dagger drop from its satchel.

I picked it up and looked at it....it seemed like a pretty neat dagger! Perfect for gnomes too!!
So I went to place it in my belt for throwin....when all of a sudden the dagger began to glow and I was overcome with unspeakable images!!!!
When I finally snapped out of it, many minutes had gone by!!! Wrekka even said I had vanished completely from the world!!!
What....what was this weapon?!? It musta been what the messenger was trying to deliver!!!! I'd never seen such a powerful weapon before!!!
I handed it to Wrekka to try. Maybe it was just a gnome thing?
But when he went to put it in his belt.....suddenly he too was overcome by unspeakable images!!! And POOF he was gone!!!
Then, just like me, he returned a few minute laters....shaken by his experience...
We had found...by accident....maybe the strongest dagger in the entire world....I knew I had to keep it safe!!
Or....maybe there was something else I could do with it -grins-
Then I had an idea. That magic dark elf that had cursed me before!!! He thoughts he was so strong! It was time to beat him at his own game!!! With my legendary dagger, not even his powers would be enough to fight it!!!!!
Humm, I wasn't too sure how to reach him though. I'd only seens him that one time. But maybe if I prayed hard enough he would hear me.

So I shouted as loud as I could!! Did he hear me? He musta....right?
And so the challenge was issued!!!
The rest of the day went by and still no magic elf though. Eventually I forgots about it and went back to huntin for tinkering pieces.
Then, the next day, as I was tracking down pieces.....I felt sneakin happenin behind me....
[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
It was the magic dark elf!! He had founds me!!!!
"Does this means you accepts my challenge magic dark elf?!"
"I do gnome. Let's see what you have."
He took my legendary weapon and I grinned. No one in the world was strong enough to resist its curse!!!! I was going to win this challenge! And finally puts that dark elf in his place!
Slowly he put the dagger into his belt ...and.....HIS SWORD VANISHED!
I don't....even know how that happened! But I didn't have time to contemplate it! He was wielding the cursed dagger!!!!! And not being overcome by its power!!!
"What did you do to my sword gnome?!"
"I don'ts know! It wasn't sposed to do that!"
"Well I've won your challenge gnome! And you've caused me the trouble of finding my sword in the other dimension! ......let this be your lesson!"
He pointed at me as he grinned with flames surrounding him....then, suddenly, he was gone!
When I looked down....my feet looked strange....I felt strange....
[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
HOW COULD THIS BE?! He had turned me into a troll!! A big ugly troll!! With an itchy butt!!!!!!!
No no no no! Trolls is worse things in world!! Even worse than ogres!!!!!
I had to get this fixed! Fixed right away!!!!
But...who? Who could fix this?!
Then I thought of the dragon city nearby. Surely they had powers to fix me! They were dragons afterall!!! And we were pretty good friends!!!
So I ran as quick as I could to skyshrine and straight to the dragons in the library!
"Fix me fix me fix me! Imma sposed to be a gnome!!!"
"Oh my, Sneaksy? Is that you?"
"It is me! Make me back into a gnome!"
"Yes, we can do this for you....but, not as you are. We must remove your soul for a short time while we fix whatever has caused this".
"WHAT?! My soul?! But I needs my shoes for sneakins!!"
"No...no....don't worry about it. Follow me and we will begin right away."
Then they lead me into another room and put me to sleep. When I woke up I still felt pretty strange....

"Gnome? Are you awake?" A soft voice said in my head.
"Who says that?! Is someones outsneakins me?!"
"It is I, Rolandal, the one whose body you are sharing for the time being".
I looked down and saw my big dragon hands.....
"IMSA DRAGON!!!!!!!"
"Well, not quite. I'm the dragon, your gnome body is being restored by the others. But it will be a day or two till it is ready."
Apparently dragons is good at movins souls around to places...
