Journal Entry 6
I love my armor. All bards need a good stout set of armor, me, my preference is mithril, lightweight so as not to encumber one from playing his musical instruments or deftly manipulating the breakers on a lock, yet still sturdy enough to deflect many a arrow or slash of a sword. But still, its those maces or flails which hurt the most, armor might deflect the spikes on them, but it does little to deflect the crushing blows which rain upon my frail little bones. So what I need to do, is invent an armor which can be flexible when I need it to be, yet strong and sturdy against large crushing blows in a moments notice. This could be done with the proper magical spells combined together, but I am so rusty with what little magic I learned. Which means I may have to contract a mage, or group of mages, to do it for me. The price of keeping ones hide intact and shatter-free.... Journal Entry 7 I asked a herald applicant if he'd ever served under a Gnome seeking world conquest before. He promptly remained silent and shortly thereafter departed, which I'm taking for a no. Which makes him no good for any of my plans, for I only need willing and able bodies to serve under me in my plans for domination of all of Thera! Those unwilling or hesitant to perform tasks given to them by me are only good for paperweights, and then only after they've been thoroughly killed and drained of blood so when they act as paperweights they don't leak on my important documents. And also, only temporary paperweights, because they tend to rot and stink up my pages containing important information. So basically they're good for nothing, because a good rock serves as a lot better paperweight then any corpse. Must continue working hard on my articles, so soon I'll be promoted and given complete executive control over the Mystique, then the true Gnomish propaganda will begin, and any control of power that anyone in Thera holds will slowly but surely slip into my iron grasp! Journal Entry 8 I've hired a male escort from the cabal for some extra muscle in fights. And strong he is, capable of killing things far quicker then I can. I still feel awkward with him around though. He keeps winking at me, and asking me if I'd like to have dinner with him. Someone obviously never told him employers don't associate with workers outside of the work environment. Still though, when we're resting during adventurers, I somehow feel safer around him when I sleep with my back to the wall. "Ask the Mad Dictator" column is going slow, only two questions up to now, and it's been a few days already, but I have high hopes that a flood of questions will come in anytime now. If not, I'll simply fabricate some with regards to my propaganda campaign. |
