Baron Bwimb, the self-styled ruler of the Para-Elemental Plane of Ooze, was declared dead by his chief advisor today. Reports are still sketchy at this time, but it is apparent that he was killed in a massive attack that left no part of him behind what-so-ever. His mephit servants failed to find a single fragment of him despite his gigantic size for an ooze sprite. There are conflicting reports coming from the Sinking Palace of Sublime Ooze as to who was responsible for the attack.One witness claimed that a dark presence, blacker and more evil than the deepest pit in the Abyss, visited Bwimb's palace and destroyed him with a single word. Another  witness claims that the darkness was caused by the drow who had launched a lighting raid in which they deployed fell sorcery to ensure the complete obliteration of Baron Bwimb. Yet another witness has come forward who has stated that it was none other than Factol Skall of the Dustmen who eliminated Bwimb. The last witness to escape the Sinking Palace of Sublime Ooze whispered before he died that the fiends all went mad and killed everyone they came across including Bwimb.Our intrepid reporter Ashenbach was unavailable to investigate this due to personal reasons that involved several angry Yugoloths enquiring about him at our office in the Lower Ward of Sigil, the City of Doors. Instead we have included below some comments from our dear readers in the Cage."Baron who? Never heard of him. Now pike it before I arrest you for wasting Harmonium time.""Good riddance I say. Ooze is disgusting and the less of it the better. What was his name again?""His Imperial Majesty Bwimb, Grand Ruler of the Plane of Splendour, Ravager of Prime Worlds, Overseer of the Elemental Planes. Sounds like a mephit to me, someone's playing you for a rube.""Your having a laugh, right? It was the Yugoloths that did it. They're behind everything bad that happens. My name? Oh, it's not important. You never met me, right?""Excellent! The revolution has begun. We will start with the elemental princes, sweep across the Primes and reshape the Planes. Long live the revolution. Down with... what was his name?""This is a serious blow for all of us. Uh thingy....., yes Baron Bwimb was prevented from ascending to the next level of sublime ooziness and the Multiverse mourns his loss. No I did not make up the word ooziness. Are you trying to inhibit my personal growth berk?""Yes I know. I got bored with Baron what's-his-name and decided to imagine him out of existence. Now run along little man before I get bored of you.""I'm Baron Bwimb and so is my wife.""To experience oblivion that must be really something. Of course, I'm planning on saving that experience until last.""Justice has been done. This Baron was a tyrant who mercilessly subjugated all of his subject with an iron rod. What? No the iron rod was a metaphor. But now that you mention it, is this something that you have stolen? Confess now or face the consequences."*yawn*"Puddles there now perhaps less Hive ooze in the be will.""Free ooze for everyone.""Of course it's important that this creature... yes, Baron Bwimb, thank you, is now dead. But think about the effect that this will have on planar trade in dairy products such as cheese for example. What? Well you might think that it has nothing to do with cheese but we are blessed and you'd better not forget it.""It is the beginning of the End, my friend. A darkness is coming the likes of which the Planes have not seen in millennia and the Powers themselves quake in terror. Forsake all hope, my friend, for the End is nigh."</blockquote>
