| Life was hard as an orphan on the streets of Morpork, without a cousin or niece to teach you right from wrong. On the other hand, you wouldn't have grown up to be such a talented Thief otherwise. Your life changed one day, changed irrevocably -- and perhaps not for the better -- when you were wandering down the quaint bucolic dusty paths of the tiny farming village of Dumpington. There, you met the Lord of Glameroth's squat half-brother, who gave you broad hints as to the last known location of the long-lost Sapphire Pig. Recognizing the street value of such a rare treasure, you set off to find it. Everything was hunky-dory until you got lost in a dungeon -- all the walls looked exactly the same! You did find a sweet yo-yo +1 in a githyanki's lair, though, and were able to intimidate some orcs into telling you where their boss's hideout was. Right before they stabbed you in the kidney. You holed up in a small storeroom with a lockable door, and spent several weeks resting until your hitpoints were back to full. Then, keeping a careful eye out for tramps, you made your way to the lair of Devil Necromancer Xxyrg and the object of your quest. You thought he nearly had you when he summoned a foul carrion crawler to his aid, but you put paid to the beast with your nunchuks and knocked the villain screaming into a spiked pit with a well-placed kick to the ear. At last, the treasure was yours!
