    Re: Would you go left... or... right

    Posted by Kryschenn on 1/17/2001, 12:01 am , in reply to "Would you go left... or... right"

    When the energy sphere flew down the tunnel toward the hissing creature, it illuminated the tunnel just enough for there to be no question whatsoever left in Kryschenn's mind. All the color drained from her face, and Kimmy's last question about the thigh bone torch in her hand did not register one iota in her brain. Then, she uttered a phrase that, in the last 48 hours, had become such common usage for her that it should really be adopted as her new clan slogan: "Oh, SHYTTE!!"

    Kimmy's suggestion of picking a way to run definitely was showing a great deal of appeal right now. Fortunately, the bright light of Cassandra's energy sphere had dazzled the creature's vision, which gave them an advantage for the moment. "Landshark..." Kryschenn managed, never taking her eyes from the tunnel. That wasn't what the creature was actually called, that was only the more common name that people knew the thing by. "It's a..landshark..." What were they really called? If the Realm is anything like those late-night gaming marathons, then remember your Monster Manual! "It's a...it's a bulette! Get the heck out of here!!"

    ((Bulette: an experiment in magical cross-breeding gone awry, it is a combination of armadillo and snapping turtle infused with a heavy dose of demon ichor. These subterranean, always-hungry creatures are approximately 12 feet long. They eat humans, horses, etc, and are particularly fond of halfling [how closely are kender related to halflings, Kimmy?] but will not touch elf or dwarf. They are heavily armored and really too stupid to be afraid of anything. They do have weak spots in their armor, though...))
