A Rogue's Adventure Through dungeons fell and halls so grim, I sleuth, I sneak, in silence creep, Further searching through the dim For treasures hidden in the deep. Rings slid from skeletal hands, I want them so, they need them less. Ignore the Goddess' quaint commands, Her petty gifts do not impress. I run as sharp-nosed diggles chase, Whilst plundering their nests of grime, Stolen yolk drips down my face, A statue falls - heroic crime! A locked chest makes my eyebrows twitch, Inviting thoughts of precious plunder, Will I be gifted, will I be rich? No! A monster bursts from under! I sneak, I snitch, I trap, I shoot, Unfair tactics at their best, But all are vain, my powers mute, As the horror slashes 'cross my chest. I flee! The nearest door compels, I hope for route to safe belows, But ah, beyond a zoo of madness dwells! Hope dies first, body follows.
A Mold Romance I watch the corpses fall in scores, Then move in with my precious spores, Yearning for fungal allures, I want to see their beauteous bloom! In the heat of battle I feel no pain Under the 'fluence of lobstermane, Grunge ear growing through my veins, I will not fall amidst this gloom! Truffle and agaric give me might, The Prince will last throughout the fight, My powers fueled by cap of night, Monsters, prepare to find thy tomb! Blobbies, beware of my true slime! As toxic clouds kill in time, Oh Mushroom Beast, dismiss this grime! By Shuggoth's powers meet thy doom! Blungecap's greed makes gain from strife, Fairywodger restores my life, Through dungeons mold-growth is now rife, Fear the 'shroom, FEAR THE 'SHROOM!!!
The Curious Mage I played with fire, I toyed in ice, I walked the leys so fabulous, I turned to dark-spawned powers of vice, And even dabbled in calculus. I conquered minds, I drank of souls, I drew down strength from pure starlight, I clothed in flesh of young and old, My moustache golems flexed their might. So many scores of monsters slain, Braised and burst and thaumite smothered, But my powers were naught, my magic vain, When in the lutefisk cube I placed another...
Do the T'Char Dance! The T'Char Dance, Oh the T'Char Dance! Grab your belt tight And move those pants! Consume the root, And suffer you shall, By the dance dance dance Unstoppable! Dance six steps You'll feel so dark, Three more and jump With a blasting spark! Dance five steps And jump through fire, Nine more steps And the flames reach higher! The T'Char Dance, Oh the T'Char Dance! The root's digestin', As you wildly prance! One step and jump With a little blast, Eight more beats For a heatrune vast, Dance four steps To inscribe the floor, Dance aside To burn some more! Two more steps, Explosions placed, Four beats more, Jump with haste! The T'Char Dance, Oh the T'Char Dance! The floor's on fire With unholy chants! Last four steps About the room To now unleash Tentacular Doom! Open six mouths Sing with tongues! As tentacles burst From your lungs! T'Char's here! Dance those feet! The end of the world To a funky beat!
Really? Damn... Could rewrite I guess. What's the new rules exactly? Incidentally, I wrote this in memory of my first attempt at trying out one of these roots. I was curious why it cost so much in a vending machine, didn't notice much different upon eating, and then proceeding to be immensely flummoxed by the chaos that followed. What fun
Now each of individual effects has a random chance of activating, either 30 or 50% of the time, in 1.7 So yes more randomness for more fun.
ROFLOL, no need to bump, tbh I came here to see why you replied. At least it isn't Furry RP. Don't know what vining would think of said poetry, though. Edit: while making that post I just made, I somehow feel inclined to make my post rhyme. Not gonna happen unless by mistake.
