And so THE CURSE comes

It’s a peaceful day in Solace. Skies are clear, birds are singing and the people go on with their business…

“HELLO TREES!” The happy voice echoes so loudly that the birds fly away in haste. Some might catch a glimpse of a colorful little blur that runs from tree to tree, laughing and babbling on its way. A pony clomps after the noisy figure calmly. It seems to be... a young girl?

Those who know better, tighten their hold of their purses and double check if they are missing anything. It’s not the first time this particular Kender has stopped by Solace. Nor will it be the last it seems. She comes and goes spontaneously, leaving behind confusion, laughter and frustrated yells of those who lose coins and small objects that they were just carrying with them.

She has also caused some havoc in Gateway, when she led a swarm of large bugs from the forest right to the town. She helped to get rid of them as they started attacking everyone and apologized for the trouble, because she only thought they were following her cause they wanted to join her army of dragon-eating bearhorses. Nobody really cared to know more about it…

After casually checking everyone’s pockets without getting noticed, she is ready move on.

“Let’s go Fluffy Bear!” Muira Headknocker yells and encourages the pony to move on. There are many caves and houses she needs to investigate. Who knows what she might find next. An epic treasure perhaps? Or a talking star!

Why was everything so red? And why… Is that lava? No wonder then. Oooh, so many big folk!

Muira had just ‘investigated’ some cargo at Crossing. It was not her fault that someone had packed her along with all the stuff. And now she was… Well, she was not entirely sure where she was. But that only meant new exciting places to venture! And the big and slightly angry looking fellows that lurked all around the massive campsites were no problem. None of them even noticed the tiny kender slipping past tents and doors, couple of times stopping to look what was inside a barrel or a pouch.

After hiking a way too tall mountain side and wandering around cave filled with walking magma, Muira decided to head further away from the bothering heat. Luckily there was this riverside not that far. And stonewall! Quietly passing the guards she helped herself in. Locked doors? They needed investigating!

(I'll just leave a trap for Diesel as a thanks of the hospitality ;D )

When the massive amounts of Dire Wolf started lurking around Haven, it didn’t take long to point out the one responsible for it.

Muira didn’t really understand why everyone was so worked up of the whole thing. She only wanted to play with the wolfies, not cause harm to anyone. But if the folks here did not like the wolfies, then it was her job to make them leave.

Next day the whole area around the city was filled with traps.

The guards were sent to arrest the kender. Problem was that she had already broken into the prison and was happily playing card games with the inmates. So they kicked her out instead. Muira promised happily to everyone that she would come to visit again someday.

(True story. About 20 pack leaders and 15 traps. Some NPC casualties happened. But I had tons of fun   )

(Muira made traps without Cat? I'm very disappointed )

(Awww I'm so sorry. But we can gather even more traps, like... over 50! And put them all in one area and see the glorious results )

(It's a date!)

(I'd like to witness that!   )
