>>>>>[ Of course it is. Where were you people hiding out yesterday. I
couldn't
contact you, Raven, Lucky, Spectre... Oh my god, how is Spectre? The last I saw
of him was that wierd spider spirit cutting his hand off. ]<<<<<

>>>>>[ We're not to sure about him. I saw him the other day and he wasn't
doing
too well. I'm not sure which disturbed him more, dropping you or having his
hand cut off. I tried to get him to tell me about the spirit, but he didn't
have much to say, and it just seemed to annoy him. Still what happened to you?
You just dropped off the fact of the earth for a while. ]<<<<<

>>>>>[ Well, I fell, actually I slid, down a about 10 to 20 meters and
ended
up in a tunnel complex. Now, I've been in tunnels under Puyallup and I didn't
enjoy them the first time, but I couldn't find my way out and I'd been poisoned
by one of those damn spider spirits.
I wandered around for what must have been days constantly healing myself in an
attempt to keep ahead of the poison till I got out, but finally I just passed
out.
I woke up to find this measely little Rat Shaman concentrating on trying to heal
me. Just like all my trys, it fixed the damage, but didn't stop the poison. He
tryed to introduce me to his little group of tunnel dwellers, but the poison
quickly sapped all my strength.
It took hours of this before I could finally explain to him what was wrong with
me and he said that he couldn't remove the problem. However he did know a
Gator Shaman who was also in the tunnels that could "purge" the poison from
my system. He sent someone to get him and had the others nurse me while he
kept me from dying.
It must have been a few more days before the Gator Shaman showed up and cast an
Anti-Toxin spell on me. Damn Gators are too lazy. Then the little bastard said
he would guide me back to the surface, but that I had to pay. Naturally I asked
him how much money he wanted and you'll never guess what he said.
HE WANTED ME TO SLEEP WITH HIM!!!!!!
I was sickened, repulsed. I'd meet him five minutes before and he expected to
have sex with me just because she cast that stupid Anti-Toxin spell on me.
Well it goes without saying that I told him where he could put it and that I'd
just find my own way to the surface.
This pissed him off and he decided that if I wasn't grateful for his saving my
life that he'd take to back. First he slammed a fist into my gut and threw me
down to the ground. Then he called up a Water Elemental and had it attack me.
This really hacked me off, so I hit both of them with a manablast. Blasted the
Water Elemental right back where it came from too. He was only slightly
injured, but really angry. Tryed shock me with a Spark Spell, but I dodged it.
I repsonded with a power bolt that dropped him to his knees.
He got smart and stopped attacking me with magic. Instead he ripped out a big
nasty knife and staggered back to his feet. I pulled me knife and began to
circle him. He lunged, I parried, stepped inside his arm and tossed him across
the cave. This guy had no formal combat training at all. Anybody who's been
to two martial arts classes would have defended against that one. He hit pretty
hard too, since before he could get back to his feet I grabbed a stick (pretty
slimly stick too) and brained him.
I then had one of the Rat Shaman's family escort me back to the surface. I must
say I was pretty grungy, because I took me three hours in a tub to get myself
feeling clean again. ]<<<<<
