Beasley Biggums Journal, Arthy 13th 998 YK. (CA page 87)

Blink Dog carcass in alley this morning. Carriage tread on burst stomach. Not native to Sharn, suspect halflings, always the halflings. This city suffers a -2 penalty on fear saves against me and I am immune to its gaze attacks.

Ever since the Treaty of Thronehold banned adventurers as the cause of and solution to all of life's problems, I have been here.

The skybridges are extended gutters draining thirty stories killing us all. If vermin were still a monster type, they'd drown The accumulated filth of all their sex and murder will foam up, and the *****s and politicians and politicians who are changeling *****s, and the halfling politicians who run the *****s will shout, save us, and I'll whisper, no...then I might have to speak up.

It's more fun than an Aundairian add-a-verse song and very well possibly a violation of many copyright laws so tell me, what's your story?

I heard a joke once: Elf goes into Jorasco hospital. Says he's depressed. Says life is harsh and cruel. Says he feels all alone in a threatening world. Healer says, "Treatment is simple. The great clown Pagliacci d'Phiarlan is in town tonight. Go see him. That should pick you up." Elf bursts into tears. Says, "But healer... I am Pagliacci." Good joke. Everybody laugh. Roll on snare drum. Curtains.

Dr Mourning... some adventurer who went into an Eldritch Machine to get the Everburning Torch he had dropped in there ?


Thing is, the Mourning already happened - so the game takes place after the end of the story. Merrix is probably Ozymandias.

The Nite Owl is so easy to stick in Sharn it's not even fair.

The Portrait is in my Hand. I remember looking at it when it was drawn. I was there in 959 in Sharn. At the same time, I'm here in 998 on the plane of Fernia.

I am 58 years old. I suffer no penalties for my age, not anymore...

It is 958. I have taken my 1st level in Artificer after graduating from Morgrave University.

It is 959. I begin my work at Whitehearth, a House Cannith facility in Cyre.

It is 994. The accident is waiting for us all.

They say I am a Deva. They say I have an epic destiny, that I am some kind of Demi-god.

I tell them that it makes no sense to send me into battle fighting low level soldiers. Reality and logic swirl, changing and spinning like gluinos, the planes, or Ioun stones.

I tell them that soon there will be many Devas in Khorvaire. They do not believe me.
