Well done! I enjoyed reading from the start to this point, keep it up. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

P.S. I know a great place for Sneaksy to hunt for plats! Runnyeye the goblin stronghold near Rivervale! It has a bank, even a Goblin King who wears a crown! I am sure the goblins would be great to pick pocket!

Yeah, it is interesting. I've taken it as a learning opportunity (to figure out why this resonates so heavily with people). I think it is because it is short and to the point and punctuated with pictures. Pretty much anyone can appreciate the silliness and nobody feels threatened by it. The character, while confident and prideful is wildly self deprecating, but unaware and successful. People appreciate that, because in some small way it speaks to sincere fears (failure) and desires (success) everyone has and their able to smile at the suggestion of hope regardless of its fictitious nature. I'm not sure tbh though. Going to think on it more. ^^ IIRC people did respond favorably to a lot of your older stuff (~ 。^)b Props to Ivory though on writing something the people here enjoy.
for both of you, your stuff was well written enough, but it was about topics that didn't resonate with anyone. it was full of in-jokes and nasty sideswipes. nobody cared about someone's quest for an RL band name for their character, or their injokey exploits with their three friends. parodying that same band name quest that nobody liked is a fast ticket to nowhere.

ivory's stuff is friendly, cheerful, and most importantly, puts game events in an amusing context that is the best part about playing a sandbox game: writing your own stories. everyone can understand it and it's hilarious. this is the kind of thing that inspires people to play everquest. random people he meets even make it into the storyline! you want to write something that resonates on forums about classic everquest, that's your key.

kudos to you ivory, your ranger stories were awesome and this is even better. =)

Next it was time to visit the halflings again!! But this time for business....

I've found when visiting a new city for business, it is best to get bound right away.....

After-all, this is pretty dangerous work!!!

But....shields don't find themselves.....

Again, I took my time....visiting each guard and giving them the attention they deserved...even going out to their wall guards to see if they had any shields that needed finding!

After another long day of gnome business, I sat in the bank and counted my treasure....almost 1,000 platinum!!!!

But I was facing a bigger problem....I was running out of cities~!

Should I travel to the ogre and troll cities? Or maybe the dark elves? Or...iksar?! I'm sure each had plenty of shields! But they were even more dangerous than normal shield finding work!!!

So, I traveled to the commons later that night to relax and think......

And there, as you usually do in the commons trading tunnels, I met a lot of shady characters (including tiny iksars!).

They told me of a mask....one that could disguise me so I could get closer to the evil city guards....and their shields!!

I had to have it!!! The ancient mask of the undead frogloks!!!!
