GENERAL NEWS
MINING FIRM PURCHASES
MINOC ASSETS
Minoc officials okayed the
final decision to transfer
mining lands to the
Atkins Mining firm this
week. Town officials felt
that the 1.4 billion gold
purchase was good in
that it would promote
future growth of the
town with little negative
impact on everyday local
functions. Mine owners
could not be reached for
comment.
FRUSTRATED FEY
FRIENDS FORSAKE
FOOTWEAR FABRICATOR
Citing irreconcilable
differences, brownie
workers departed the
employ of footwear mogol
for greener pastures.
Brownie spokesman,
Pilwinkle Dabblewonkin had
this to say, "When we
first signed onto this
job, it was largely out of
pity for the poor cobbler.
You see, at the time,
the guy was barely
making ends meet. He was
in danger of losing his
house, his wife was sick,
and was way behind on
his work, due to extreme
exhaustion. Hecame to us
for assistance, and in
exchange for some honey
cakes and sweet cream,
we would work long into
the night to fill his work
orders. It seemed like a
good idea at the time; we
brownies are suckers for
those damn honeycakes.
Eventually, the cobbler
got his life back on
track, and was making
gold hand over fist due
to the demand for unique
fey made footwear. We
brownies were working
around the clock for
some honey cakes that
turns out can be bought
for 5 gold per dozen.
Yeah, we brownies are
pretty crappy
businessmen. So now, the
cobbler's walking around
like some bigshot, and
hasn't even made the
effort to show a gesture
of gratitude. It's not
about the honeycakes man,
it's about the respect!
So, it's back to Ilshenar
for us." There is no
telling how this news will
impact footwear
purveyors, as authorities
fear a repeat recurrence
of the Sosarian sandal
slayings where footwear
fanatics hunted down
innocent mages for their
uniquely hued shoes.
TAVERN PATRON
MUGGED BY WISPS,
DEPANTSED!
It was not to be the
usual walk home from the
tavern, as Serpent Cross
barfly, Milo McTavish
departed the Yew
establishment in his usual
enebriated state. Following
about five minutes of
travel, he was accosted
by two glowing orbs that
proceeded to dart about
him in what he described
as "in a playful manner."
Events then took an
awful turn as the two
wisps suddenly began to
roughly shove him back
and forth before pushing
him to the ground. When
McTavish finally did get
back on his feet, he
discovered his assailants
long gone, and himself
minus his money pouch
and a new pair of pants.
Wisp expert, Cear Dalben
remains skeptical of the
account and stated,
"Wisps have never
demonstrated this sort of
roguish behavior or
facination with trousers
in the past, so why
should they start now?
It's not as though they
could wear them." She
then paused before
concluding, "Or could
they?....."

VAMPIRE CASINO
WELCOMES NEW SOULS

company of goths? Do
you enjoy an evening of
high stakes gambling? If
you answered 'yes' to
either of these questions,
then come on down to
the Golden Fang; the
first casino staffed
entirely by denizens of
the undead. Belly up to
the bar and order
yourself a Bloody Mary,
then head over to the
craps table and roll the
bones for a chance at
big winnings. At the
Golden Fang, you'll never
have to fight the elderly
for a slot machine,
because we have enough
to go around. Once in a
blue moon, Undead Frank
Sinatra and the 'Bat
Pack' drop in for an
evening of entertainment.
It's all here! The good
times last for eternity....

located adjacent to The
Bloody Feast Tavern

runebook at Goodman's

FOUL PLAY #1
Why is Fowl Play the
number one leader in
cockfighting gear?Fowl
Play's most basic gear
begins with our patented
Eversharp 3 inch bladed
foot spurs, followed by a
light weight armored
harness providing top
notch protection while
allowing free range of
movement. Advanced gear
such as the dragon's
breath cannon can be
easily mounted onto the
harness for multiple
bursts of flaming naptha
reaching an impressive
five feet! The Longshot
is a catapult armature
that mounts onto the top
of the harness, capable
of lobbing devastating
volleys of molten
grapeshot or bladed
flechetts against
opponents reluctant to
enter close combat. The
harness is also capable of
mounting dual rotating
side blades; the ideal
defense against flanking
opponents. If you're tired
of taking your prize bird
to the cockfights and
coming home with chicken
salad, then isn't it about
time you put your cock
in our hands? With over
25 years of cock handling
experience, Fowl Play has
everything you need to
take your chicken or
chicken lizard to the
winner circle. Fowl Play
offers a wide array of
customized fighting gear
for your little champion.
We offer various colors
and styles and can even
add your corporate logo.
To start, each cock is
sized up and measured to
be specially fitted with
protection offering the
best performance in the
arena. So, leave behind
those days of shame and
embarrassment, and see
what it's like to be a
winner. Stop into one of
our locations for a free
demonstration.
Did you know?: The
Jungle parrot, despite its
diminutive size, has a
crushing beak powerful
enough to break the spine
of its prey, the giant
serpent. It then uses its
strapping wings to lift
the carcass up to its
nest where it will feed
its voraciously hungry
chicks.
Quote of the Day: Give a
murderer a fish and you
feed him for a day.
Teach him to kill
fishermen, and you'll feed
him for a lifetime."
