| After the entire village of Pig-in-a-Poke was murdered, including your daughter and cousin, you vowed to get your revenge. You became a mighty Fighter, albeit one who was easily distracted by sidequests. You rode into the city of Flabbernathy, and met a shadowy stranger in a hooded cloak who was sitting in the corner of the local bar. He told you about the legendary Sapphire Beetle of Bafflesbury, which is rumored to be hidden in an ancient necropolis near the village of Buttole, and promised you a hefty fee if you could bring it to him. Figuring he wouldn't offer you the quest if it weren't level-appropriate, you readily agreed. You weren't having any problems until you got your lower back caught in a swinging razor-sharp pendulum and had to gnaw it off to escape. Fortunately, you don't need that to be a hero... but you will sort of miss it. But, you put on your brave face, and made your way through the caverns and caves to where the Dragon Troll Xxyrg held court over his horde of red-headed thieves, and with uncountable swings of your spoon (and a few well-placed attacks of opportunity), you finally slew the horrible gimp and rode back to town to claim your glory (and reward).
