    [​IMG] Write a poem about your Avatar.

    The Goblin.
    I am the red-dot glowing eyes,
    beyond the safety of your fires.
    and when you breathe the chill of night
    you taste the essence of my might.

    When I cross your shadow, fear.
    Shiver, I draw ever near.
    I hold a knife you'll never see
    that longs to sink deep into thee.

    Open veins and spurting red,
    It won't be long until you're dead
    and then my tribe can eat it's fill.
    To me, you're just another kill.

    Your turn…

    Linael of the Mists

    I am work so I don't have time

    And I also have in inspiration

    That is my Avatar
    a fish that can move without water.
    So I post like a crazy, many text
    And see what avatar comes next :)

    [edit: Typos. I I wrote this in 2 minuts :)]

    Steady, my Aquatic friend, for you might spring some leaks,
    because your skin is water-tight and Herons have sharp beaks.
    I hope you find the pressure nice and love to dive and leap,
    but the only way to hide from birds is diving to the deeps.

    Oily black and slimy skin,
    He of eel and catfish kin,
    First you'll see the waters sunder
    Then he'll drag you down and under.

    Drowning in this land of black,
    with bursting lungs and muscles slack.
    Fear the Kuo-Toa friend;
    His teeth that bite and claws that rend.

    In greyish cloak
    My gaint quill
    Shall write my notes
    My masterful magic
    Will keep back my foes
    My druish staff
    Will break their nose ;)

    The core of all men I be
    That which keeps them standing
    Lets their limbs defy gravity
    Vital to all, but yet
    A symbol of death,
    Of the dead, for I am
    Their earthly remains
    That have risen again

    [​IMG] O! dearest Xvart, I adore thee,
    How you swing that short sword so futilely,
    Please, Mr Xvart, I implore thee;
    Get your big fat brown bear off me.

    (ahh! Obscure BG1 references make for fine verse, no? :D :p :hahaerr: )

    [​IMG] Xfart with weakling arms my foe
    off to fetch your Bear friend go
    Bring him to my swordy point
    and on my blade his blood anoint.

    he he he.

    Hey, Namuras, tell me you did'nt write that.
    If you did, you are a Bard, man.
     
  8. A Xvart is what I shall be,
    A Tasloi is what I am now,
    I hope Tal can be helping me,
    Cause I want to be a COW.

    ... Man this poem sucks :lol:
    Oh, and before anybody thinks I'm really trying to get a cow avatar, no, I'm not trying to get a cow avatar.

    You don't want a cow avatar? Why not? :grin:
    Damn funny poem, that, as are the ones about the xvarts...

    Hey, thanks Linael. I did write that, though I'm normally not much of a poet... Glad you liked it.

    Once an Orog,
    Merely Screaming, "Cheese"
    Now a Neo-Orog,
    Who screams "Cheese Whiz"

    When coughing, i wheeze,
    But i'm still the best
    In this biz, that Biz
    We call Rest.

    [​IMG] Aaah, I was wondering what that Avatar was.
    (Been ages since I played BG)

    Daddy was an Orge
    Twelve foot tall and BAD!
    Mommy was an Orc, you know,
    she was a little mad.

    What is the result, you say,
    of Orc and Ogre spawn
    An "Orog", strong, and keen to slay
    into Faerun was born.

    [​IMG] Sorcerer, at school?
    sounds a bit harry potter.

    Mageling trundles off to school.
    Likes to play the fool.
    He will end up Frog in pool.

    (It has no measure because it's a Haiku...I think)

    [​IMG] Cleric, Cleric, burning bright,
    In the forest of the night,
    What immortal hand or eye
    Could frame thy fearful symmetry?

    In what distant deeps or cares
    Burnt the fire of thine prayers?
    On what wings dare he aspire?
    What the hand dare seize the celestial fire?

    What the hammer? What the chain?
    In what furnace was thy brain?
    What the anvil? What dread grasp
    Dared its deadly terrors clasp?

    When the stars threw down their spears
    And watered heaven with their tears,
    Did He smile his work to see?
    Did He who made the lamb make thee?

    Cleric, Cleric, burning bright,
    In the forest of the night,
    What immortal hand or eye
    Could frame thy fearful symmetry?

    (and that is completely original! ;) )
     
  15. Yep. Math is a pretty hot cleric... feel the intense heat. ;)

    Forever Yuan-ti,
    Whatever that may be,
    With her dominent weapon.
    Her skin is not cotton,
    but skins as vibrant green scales
    Only having one not two tails.

    It's quick, it's stupid, but I don't care because I'm a crappy poet.

  18. Tasloi, Tasloi, What a Tasloi,
    Whatever that may be;
    It's not a boy but full of coy,
    I think it's a baddie.

    Oh! Sorcerer's Place! Boards of Magick!
    At level 4 a Tasloi you shall be;
    With a funny face and a tail to kick,
    I think it's a baddie.

    Nice Rhythmic... I like that.

    Goblins

    Gobbling brains and Gobbling guts
    I be bad, "No-If's-No-But's"
    If I 'aint asleep or eating
    I be Ripping , Maiming, Beating.

    Questors come and questors go,
    In the hole and down below.
    Some are rich and some are poor,
    and some have bones for me to gnaw.

    One day soon I hope to grow,
    arms so long they reach my toes.
    I'll feast on Elf and Man and Pork;
    For then, you see, I'll be an Orc.


    And from another perspective. ( The Sembian merchants' song )

    Whiny little yellow brat, desist in darksome dealing.
    Leave my caravan alone and homeward now be leading.

    Folks of caves in swarming gangs, abounding oft' in scoreses
    Savage spawn, maleficent, nefarious little whoreses

    Goblins come and goblins go, about the night on missions;
    For their masters, evil, hold in sway, the midgets; vicious.

    Let the thunder cleanse the hills, let the rain awash and spill
    And wash the spindly scum away so I can go about my trade.

    Linael of the Mists.

    Goblin.

    Scuffling, ruffling, shooting arrows
    Our teeth and claws are sharp and narrow.
    Summoned by Irenicus to guard
    We await the unwary, stupid and lard.
    Many we number, a pack of the best
    The fearsome, the powerful, above the rest.
    You may be mighty, but we are of sin
    Scuffling, ruffling, Goblin.
