The Adventures of the Knights of Spellforge Keep

[Dursk Starkfire]

hindsight...

Vek probably should've cast Geas on that dwarf and forced him to use his gems for the good of Verbabonc... at least then there would be a chance for the gems to be used for good instead of evil.

keep it coming doc! its great to see the knights have their own agendas as well! just remember hundreds of years after the knights are gone, the people of Oerth will remember them as saints for ridding the evil Accessiwal!

poor and dilapidated is just plain cruel.

We got the impression the dwarf liked working for the dragon. Who knows that that greedy lil' bugger would have done with the money. A Ring of Sustenence and 200gp is more than he deserved and more than most people in this world have in a lifetime. Hes lucky to leave with his life. Far luckier than the dead and homeless citizens of Verbobonc!

to be mugged and set loose into the wild

Watch what you say dwarf.. the nearest habitation is well... Verbobonc! I'd hate to see you speak ill of us there. Maybe I'll find you in Spellforge Keep's prisions when I get home. That would be most unfortunate... I might consider the blaspemy treason

“Hey, what the…” Dommeruth sat up and slapped his hands to all his pockets. “Where’s my… where’s the gems?”

“We took them.”

“What! Why? You STOLE my GEMS?”

“They only became yours after you stole them from the dragon.”

“But… that… you stole them from me? Thieves in the night??”

Vek spoke. “We saved your life. You took a hefty severance package from Acessiwal yesterday. We took a put-up-with-the-annoying-dwarf tax. Which just happened to be everything.”

“I had to work under a lich as my immediate superior, with a white dragon over him!” he yelled. The dwarf had been making plans in his dreams on how he’d spend the money. Now, it was all gone. He sniffled and spoke in a small voice. “It’s not fair.”

You know, I have to say that if I were actually at this session, (Xaltar & I missed last weekend), I would have made a stink about taking the gems. Glad Doc wrote that Kizz thought it was wrong, because that's the way I would have felt! Shame on the Knights!

Grumbar mumbled to himself. “Stupid Jamison, lookin’ all saucy…” At this point, Kizzlorn lost it again and collapsed to the ground, laughing herself breathless.

As for this...it's hysterical! Even if Kizz would never do it, I might actually be caught laughing myself breathless from time to time IRL!

Where is Dartan to say, "Heeee waaass eeevviiilll!"

 

[Ziona]

Oh, you were so certain he was EEEEEVVVVIILLL?

I wasn't there, so I can't say, but I would have fought you guys on that. Barter with him for some, maybe, but not take them all from him. I just think it was cruel. 200gp & a Ring of Sustenence is fine and dandy, but not in comparison to the riches he had. I just think we deserve whatever ire he has for us.

 

[Wee Jas]

but not in comparison to the riches he had

...but not in comparison to the riches he had BEEN USING TO CREATE ICE GOLEMS TO KILL AND MAIM INNOCENT PEOPLE.

This dwarf was like the Greyhawk version of a Nazi scientist. If we had more time and less pressing issues to worry about I would have had him jailed awaiting a court date. He wasn't in a cell like the others... His door wasn't even locked. He got off easy.. He better pray he never sees me again.

 

[Wee Jas]

oh my first double post! How exciting!

 

[Ziona]

Like I said, I wasn't there, but the way Doc has presented it really makes us out to be the bad guys. If he was there against his will and had no means of escaping, then I think the Knights did a bad thing by taking all of his gems. I could maybe see wanting some for his "rescuing" but I can't see having taken all of them. It just seemed cruel, and I didn't see the point in it.

But, that's just Kizz's 2 copper!

You forgot to include "FORCED TO" in there. Keep that in mind.

 

[Wee Jas]

I'm not buying it. You love the contoversy. If he was so oppressed he'd be WAY more concerned (and grateful) to be getting out alive and way less concerned about the gems.
