| Life was hard as a young man growing up in the city of Claremont, and it became even harder when you had your heart stolen by a skeletal, simple seamstress. You became a Thief, in order to steal it back (with interest). As you wandered the back alleys of Mudhole (and let's face it, most of that place is back alleys), a hand covered your mouth while a blade pushed gently at your ribs. You let yourself be dragged into a pitch-dark abandoned haberdashery. A sultry female voice introduced herself as Cornflower Fear stein. She asked you to undertake a quest to recover the barman's lost ferret, Mrs. Woogie. Reasoning it was the best quest you'd get until you leveled up a bit, you agreed to help. It wasn't a thing up until the part where you found yourself trapped between a beartrap and a sphere of annihilation, with a weretiger bearing down upon you. That strawberry was pretty delicious, but it's didn't really make up for the damage to your ankle. Bruised but unbroken, you readied your mace and marched forth into the darkness, where you were immediately captured by the Horror Sorcerer Englebert's army of squat orphans. They hauled you before their master, but got bored and wandered off during his long gloating speech. Seeing your chance, you pushed the evil buffoon into his own succubus, and escaped to claim your reward from the grateful people of Farnsworthington.
