| Life was hard as an orphan on the streets of Frog, without a dad or mother to teach you right from wrong. On the other hand, you wouldn't have grown up to be such a talented Thief otherwise. 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 comic shop. A sultry female voice introduced herself as Scarlet Night blood. She asked you to undertake a quest to recover the Poo-bah's lost mongoose, Tiny. Reasoning it was the best quest you'd get until you leveled up a bit, you agreed to help. You had a good handle on it up until the part where you found yourself trapped between a iron maiden and a lava pool, with a owlbear bearing down upon you. That strawberry was pretty delicious, but it's didn't really make up for the damage to your bung. But, unwilling to let that keep you from glory, you gritted your teeth and wielded your dagger, and cut your way through the hordes of dire dwarves that stood between you and your goal. At last you found the lair of Blood Sorcerer Arc'klor, who quite unexpectedly turned out to be your long-lost cousin, but you killed the idiot anyway. And thus was the land freed from tyranny, and you earned yourself a fat reward!
