| Life was hard as a young man growing up in the city of Glameroth, and it became even harder when you had your heart stolen by a skeletal, simple bard. You became a Thief, in order to steal it back (with interest). As you wandered the back alleys of Malph (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 pig stable. A sultry female voice introduced herself as Rose Dusk blade. She asked you to undertake a quest to recover the Lord of Burblegroat's lost earwig, Mr. Woogie. 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 antlion pit and a awkward conversation, with a githyanki bearing down upon you. That strawberry was pretty delicious, but it's didn't really make up for the damage to your elbow. Fortunately, "giving up" isn't in your dictionary (probably because it's two words), so you persevered. You fought your way through countless kobolds and jerks -- even a shoggoth! But eventually you found the lair of the sinister Frost Overlord Baaaal, and were able to defeat him by knocking him into a cookie jar with a lucky critical hit. Bruised but successful, you made it back to the nearby city of Lurkmoor and claimed your reward.
