[QUOTE="Richards, post: 9072907, member: 508"] [B]INTERLUDE: ORCHID'S SONG[/B] To the Esteemed Bard, Holyrood Carp, As you are well aware, we now have a fifth member in our little band of heroes. I felt it appropriate that I write up a song in her honor - I hope it meets with your favor. The lyrics follow: [INDENT] Who's that elven woman who's been hanging 'round the TPA?[/INDENT] [INDENT] Nobody's seen her before, she kind of just showed up one day[/INDENT] [INDENT] She's got some elven traits that will ensure that she is not ignored[/INDENT] [INDENT] Like long, thick, lustrous hair and a chest that is not flat as a board[/INDENT] [INDENT][/INDENT] [INDENT] Turns out her name is Orchid and she comes from rather far away[/INDENT] [INDENT] Walked here for a week on foot, with a wolf to keep the foes at bay[/INDENT] [INDENT] Showed up, delivered armor, and then thought that she'd stay a while[/INDENT] [INDENT] The TPA was fine with that - she charmed them all with just a smile[/INDENT] [INDENT][/INDENT] [INDENT] Orchid is a druidess and a talented one at that[/INDENT] [INDENT] She [I]speaks with animals[/I] so they can all just have a friendly chat[/INDENT] [INDENT] She wildshapes to other forms (shapechanges if you prefer)[/INDENT] [INDENT] You see an eagle in the sky? Who knows? That might just be her[/INDENT] [INDENT][/INDENT] [INDENT] When it comes to combat, she is certain to pull her own weight[/INDENT] [INDENT] Calls lightning bolts down from the skies, her targeting skills are first-rate[/INDENT] [INDENT] [I]Produces flame[/I] into her palm and throws it at her enemies[/INDENT] [INDENT] Takes down dire wolves and vampire coffins just quick as you please[/INDENT] [INDENT][/INDENT] [INDENT] And as for that gray wolf of hers, his formal name is Shushitan[/INDENT] [INDENT] He faithfully follows her around, it seems that he's her biggest fan[/INDENT] [INDENT] If you're on her good side then he's friendly as a playful mutt[/INDENT] [INDENT] But try to hurt his mistress and you'll find his teeth clamped on your butt[/INDENT] [INDENT][/INDENT] [INDENT] Now that Orchid's on the team, she's adventurer number five[/INDENT] [INDENT] And her healing spells are often used to keep the rest alive[/INDENT] [INDENT] Already in her short time here she's a proven value to the team[/INDENT] [INDENT] Becoming an adventurer is the completion of a life-long dream[/INDENT] [INDENT][/INDENT] [INDENT] So let's hear it for Orchid, elven druidess extraordinaire![/INDENT] [INDENT] She doesn't wear [I]bespoke armor[/I]; sometimes a flower in her hair[/INDENT] [INDENT] And while she's no Chaevaris, she's a decent shot with her longbow[/INDENT] [INDENT] But usually it's with her spells that she engages with a foe[/INDENT] Wishing you continued success with your enjoyable performances. With Fond Regards, Alistair Mandelberen Pastlethwaite [/QUOTE]
