| Life was hard as a young man growing up in the city of Crunkleton, and it became even harder when you had your heart stolen by a raven-haired, underdeveloped seamstress. You became a Thief, in order to steal it back (with interest). You rode into the city of X'tn'ch'roth, 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 Azure Beetle of Farc'b'n, which is rumored to be hidden in an ancient crypt near the village of Deaf Chicken, 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 were doing a good job until you got your face caught in a sphere of annihilation 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 Dark Troll Badfella held court over his horde of golden-haired desperados, and with uncountable swings of your pike (and a few well-placed attacks of opportunity), you finally slew the horrible has-been and rode back to town to claim your glory (and reward).
