Happy holidays all,
Here are a few treats from the Paladins.
The first was located in a sea zone so I'm not sure if the underlined area should be changed in the future...
Reconnaisance of unusual sighting in area xx by a patrol of the 3rd Paladin:
A patrol consisting of General I Cole, Captain II Drake and a dozen hand-picked troops
rode ahead to investigate the sighting. It had been decided that the patrol would
persevere even if difficulty was encountered, but would withdraw if the situation grew
very perilous. Without a wizard present, the force was at a disadvantage. As the ship's
crew was enjoying a clear day upon the open seas, the ship suddenly came to an abrupt halt
making the crew believe that they had struck a reef. As the crew peered over the side to
investigate, a gigantic tentacle came out of nowhere and crushed the life out of a crew
member. Then more tentacles wrapped around the ship and a huge octopus like creature arose
from the water. The patrol leaped into action to protect the ship and her crew. In the
first moments of battle, 6 warriors were slain by this fiendish enemy. The patrol attacked
with intensity knowing their situation was dire. A flurry of tentacles appeared as the
creature slammed bodies against the hull, tore the sail, and smashed the wooden planks
upon the ship. The crew became desperate causing the heroes to attack with even greater
furiosity. A new leader, Captain Redcliff has emerged as a courageous leader of much
promise. The battle raged on, furiously contested for what seemed like hours. The next few
minutes saw 4 soldiers lose their lives, but the enemy had been weakened. Bravely aiding
the patrol was Captain Redcliff. General Drake demonstrated uncommon valor through out the
fray. The battle raged for hours having more warriors perish. Together, the remnants of
the patrol lunged at the massive creature, slicing off tentacles and other body parts
until the giant octopus fell limp upon the ship's deck. The patrol had prevailed. The
massive octopus was defeated. And a magically glowing key, the Key of the Gem. Attached is
a papyrus which reads, "only he who possess 'The Key of the Gem' can hope to obtain the
'Gem of the Planes'". The Key of the Gem can obtain the Gem of Planes. A group possessing
this key will grant access to investigate the Gem of Planes' encounter. As the creature's
body was split open and preserved for an exotic delicacy, an amethest necklace is found
worth 3,000 gold. The Key of the Gem provides access to the Gem of Planes in area xx.
Reconnaissance of unusual sighting in area xx by a patrol of the 1st Paladin:
A patrol consisting of Marshal Ginach, General I Vykor, General Fadien and a dozen
hand-picked troops rode ahead to investigate the sighting. It had been decided that the
patrol would persevere even if difficulty was encountered, but would withdraw if the
situation grew very perilous. Without a wizard present, the force was at a disadvantage.
The path is worn smooth, reflecting frequent usage at some time, yet now moss and other
vegetation has grown up as visual proof that this passage carries little current traffic.
A secluded vault with bizarre engravings, here they encounter a huge dwarf dressed in full
armor guarding his treasure chest. With a quickness that belies his girth and a mighty
bellow the dwarf lunges into the midst of the patrol toppling several of the soldiers.
Within a few seconds 6 soldiers died at the hand of this evil opponent. Now the patrol's
leaders fought with their full abilities. The conflict was furious. The huge dwarf proved
to be a very formidable opponent. The contest raged on, its outcome in doubt. Paladin
leader General I Vykor was slain in battle. The battle raged on, furiously contested for
what seemed like hours. The next few minutes saw 4 soldiers lose their lives, but the
enemy had been weakened. The incredibly strong dwarf proved too much for the patrol and a
retreat was sounded. The patrol made a hasty retreat with it's surviving members,
reporting heavy-hearted back to the group.
There will be services held this Sunday at the capitol. Please send donations for his poor grieving family.
Damn dwarves!

I am the greatest swordsman that ever lived. Say, um, can I have some of that water?
