I now start my personal saga of an adventurer. I am using game days for this. As I am very inexperienced in both story writing and adventuring, please excuse my poorly-written entries, and horribly elven goblin-influenced idiotic ideas. I am using v0.31.18.

Buzong Ustra

This is pocket world with very short history, very few civilizations, very many beasts, very many sites, and very much savagery. This'll be fun.

Adventure #1

My name is Etram Smenrenepe. I am a human demigod outsider(yay!!! more fun!!), with superior strength, agility, toughness, and endurance, average recuperation, disease resistance, and focus, and very low everything else. I am a grandmaster spearman, with an emphasis on throwing. I'll train that eventually.

Day 1

I begin on the outskirts of tongspulls, a small, shopless settlement, with a copper spear and a large copper dagger. After talking to a potash maker, I learn that there is a bunch of horribly frightening things that would kill me to the west. I decide to try to bandit I was tasked to kill to the southwest. At least I think that wasn't where the bronze colossus was...

After traveling through half the incredibly small world, I found the camp. I was expecting one maceman, like the potash maker said, not him plus two archers, an axeman and a lasher. Shows you how much experience I have. Nevertheless, I begin by throwing the dagger at the axeman. It hits an arrow shot from the guy behind him. I pick up some loamy sand and throw it at the second archer, the one nearer to the lasher. After seeing how dangerously close the axeman was, I ran away until I found some marble. I quickly found the pursuing axeman and lasher and threw the pebble at the axeman, only to find the announcements think the lasher dodged it. Hey, at least it would've hit a target if it wasn't moving, even if it was the wrong one. I then had the brilliant idea of recording the fight. I continually threw pebbles and dirt at them, pausing to run away when necessary. After a while, I accidentally stabbed the axeman. I decided it was for the best, and he died shortly afterwards of gaping holes in his brain. I continued throwing things at the lasher until I got his lung, and I decided to stab him too. That one didn't work. I kept throwing things. I got him weakened, discovered aimed attacks, and stabbed his brain too. Now for the much more deadly archers. Apparently I've gotten better, because after the second pebble the first archer gave in to pain. I then found my dagger I originally had thrown at the axeman. After more throwing, i moved in on the archer. As I went through the camp, a warlord started a conversation with me. He quickly introduced himself as he decided to kill me. Then the archers, brilliant as they were, discovered they had bows! I went up to the horribly injured archer and punched his head. His brain got crushed, thanks to my superior strength. Then the bandit I was assigned to kill appeared. As the remaining archer proceeded to watch in forget his bow, I threw a pebble through the maceman's head. The last person, the archer, rediscovered his bow and proceeded to give me the worst injuries of the fight as I punched his head. maybe I'll try for the heart on one of the next guys.

Spoils of the fight: several injuries, some armor, 4 levels of throwing, and a lost spear.

I returned to the settlement and reported the news of the bandit's death, and got permission to stay for the night.
