[QUOTE="Goonalan, post: 5679295, member: 16069"] [SIZE="1"]Sinruth[/SIZE] At least that's how Sinruth imagines it, this is what actually happens. The far doors, to the west, are pushed open- one at a time, with great effort by quite the smallest Goblin you have ever seen. The Goblin makes up for its lack of stature by sporting the largest helmet any of the adventurers has ever seen- complete with massive horns. With the helm Sinruth must be nearly five feet tall, without the helmet (and massively high-heeled boots) Sinruth stands a little under three feet tall. The Goblin Lord is clad in platemail- or at least what once was a suit of platemail, various areas of the armour have been replaced with improvised objects- a clutch of spoons serve as metal epaulettes, a fire guard as a chest protector, metal dog bowls as knee protector's- one marked 'Fido' the other 'Fluffy', and on it goes. The armour is furthermore inexpertly constructed- it's all higgeldy-piggeldy with sharp edges. Sinruth clomps forward- like someone much heavier underwater, has to swing his arms furiously at several points to stop himself from falling over. He delivers his speech as he appraoches- stopping every now and then to employ both hands to drag the chain closer to him. He speaks, with a voice like a mouse in an accordian- "I am Sinruth... Lord of this Dom-de-dom, Thingy-boss of the Red Hand, the Destroyifier, the Grayt, the Magnifier, the Tribble..." He continues- "Knees before me puny manlings or else feel my RASH!" And- "KNEE OR PIE!" But before any of the assembled adventurers can answer the squeaky Goblin launches his attack- or else he begins swirling the huge (for Sinruth) chain around his head and cannot control his path. Sinruth begins to spin like a tot- clearly out of control, it's difficult to work out which is revolving around the other... "Chayyynnnnnn Whirlymajig!" Sinruth squeaks, and lashes out furiously at Velani and Freggo. The pair shrug at each other, duck while the chain repeatedly passes over their heads and then stand again after it has passed... "Next time... wooohh! WoooHH!" Sinruth squeaks as the chain spins him around.
