| Ever since you were a little boy, you wanted to become a mighty pirate and sail the seven seas, looting and plundering. Unfortunately, the country of Brazzleton is totally land-locked, so you had to settle for being a Thief. As luck would have it, you found yourself wandering through the sleepy village of Bobcat just as the village people (you know, the construction worker, the cop, the Indian) were beset by the evil Giant Grunwold, who had poisoned the town's weasel population. Against your better judgment (and with the hope of fat loot to come), you agreed to try and bring the villain to justice. You weren't having any problems up until the part where you found yourself trapped between a vending machine and a swinging razor-sharp pendulum, with a mimic bearing down upon you. That strawberry was pretty delicious, but it's didn't really make up for the damage to your kidney. You holed up in a small storeroom with a lockable door, and spent several weeks resting until your hitpoints were back to full. Then, keeping a careful eye out for bullywugs, you made your way to the lair of Demon Wizard Grimtooth and the object of your quest. You thought he nearly had you when he summoned a foul githyanki to his aid, but you put paid to the beast with your bardiche and knocked the villain screaming into a antlion pit with a well-placed kick to the head. At last, the treasure was yours!
