The Shadowquest of Dumluk (or How to get flat)

Post by Dumluk »

After waiting many muuns at the Yew Orc fort for a Grunt to awake and be challenged, Kiggru'wuz allowed Dumluk to challenge Vishakt, the Ghaash-Blud Nob. Knowing of Vishakt's penchant for poison, Dumluk had brought along a bow of strong mojo just for the occasion. Unable to move, Vishakt fell valiantly to Dumluk's arrows. The Goth then sent Dumluk on his quest, alive (for he had just turned red again in earlier clomping) but without any possessions, to clomp the shadees at the Orc fort near Delucia.

While punching a brigand uselessly, it didn't take Dumluk long to realize this would be no easy feat, for he had no offensive skills other than archery and tactics. He decided to drop his detecting in favor of swordsmanship. Dumluk found an unlocked house. In the corner were a pile of weapons from a fallen human vendor. Picking up a magic executioner's axe, he proceeded to clomp the spawn of the countryside, saving up the gold to buy the arrows that he needed to clear the fort.

Dumluk raised his skill in swords to 30 by the time he had enough gold to buy 300 bolts. He stealthed thru the passage near trinsic evading 3 humans on the long trip.

Upon reaching the Orc fort, he realized he was going to need more arrows. The fort was full of orcs.

Gradually he lured them out a few at a time, dispatching them quickly with the heavy crossbow he had found. By the time he got low on bolts, he had enough gold to go buy some more, so he stealthed back out to a vendor. Dumluk bought 500 bolts and 300 arrows this time.

Confident that he had enough, he returned. Again luring them out and clomping them for hours. Finally he had them low enough to get overconfident. Running in, Dumluk got up on the wall, thinking he might be safe. But he was not, the Orcish Lords were on him, he managed to get back to the entry but by this time the orcs had pulled the old Fort Trap on him and he died there, between the doors.
Still red, Dumluk ran back as a ghost through the passage and all the way back to the Hut of the War God. It was empty. He waited hours here praying for another chance, and finally the War God gave him the flesh.

Dumluk did not have time to do it the same way again. This time he went looking for help. He found it in the form of Storm, the Order Guard. Dumluk used his guile and devilish good looks on her and she clomped many Laffurz for him. After a few hours of this (and a brief "rest" for the two of them) Dumluk had enough gold for more arrows. He left Storm half dead (and bow legged) in the Lich forest to continue his quest.

After buying a bow and crossbow and as many arrows and bolts as he could find from human vendors, Dumluk began his long stealthing trip through the passage again. About half way through he tripped on a snake, "Skahin' snayk" was all he could say before they clomped him.

His 3 days were up, he would have to return to the Goth empty handed.
