Below you'll find four goblin poems submitted by our players. Enjoy. (Posted anonymously by request):
#1: the goblin high-priestess
death surrounds me as i creep through this cave
the only thing that saves me is my circle of light
the evil crawls over my skin like a spider
chilling my shaken heart and blurring my sight
those of my species who have ventured before me
were reduced to mere bones and patches of skin
not even the shadows can hide the goblins' crimes
in anger, i feel my strength build from within
i grit my teeth and initiate the fight
kill all these bastards to let their soulds rot
take out the warrriors, bodyguards, and whores
bash out their guts with all that i've got
for i'm a good cleric who rids the world of evil
but strangely enough, after the battle
in the back of mind, i hear these five words:
meanie, load the damn dagger!
#2: An Antipaladin's Lovesong
Beating drums
Booming chants
Some small and quick
Others large and dumb
A cleric comes through
with a mage by his side
Goblins run
and Goblins hide.
A warrior strides through
With his mighty beating-stick.
Goblins duck
and Goblins turn sick.
A ninja and thief sneak by
with their trusty daggers.
Goblins cringe
and Goblins stagger.
A jedi lurks near
with his saber fierce and strong.
Goblins scream
and Goblins know somethings wrong.
A paladin on his horse
gallops by.
Goblins cower
and Goblins cry.
A sohei creeps around
wielding his stabber.
Goblins run for cover
and Goblin's teeth chatter.
A bard storms past
singing his tune.
Goblins listen in earnest
and Goblins swoon.
A ranger walks by
with his pets at his call.
Goblins gasp
and Goblins fall.
An Antipaladin enters their city
with his demons just round the bend.
The goblins cry out with joy
and welcome their long lost friend.
#3: The Slimey Goblin
The slimey goblin slowely stalks his prey...
As he hunts for newbie mortals to slay...
The blade in his hand sharpened to kill....
A minion of goblins at a fearsome chiefs will...
The hunter lifts his head having heard an odd sound...
The shaking and quaking all comming from the ground...
Just like the ground our fiercsome hunter does shake..
Then RIP Goblin as he is destroyed by my QUAKE...
#4: The Sad Goblin and the Clown
a sad little goblin sat alone one day,
he was deep in thought,
thinking of the times when everything was good,
even though now as he sit alone,
he feels ashamed what happened to his brothers,
they were all massacred one day,
but he alone ran away,
as he mourns and weeps for his fallen comrades,
a small voice is heard behind him,
he hears laughter and jokes,
it is the men, who killed his family and friends,
he grabs his rusty equipment and vowed revenge,
as he jumps over the bush,
he runs at then screaming,
just to be cut down by a magic missile,
as he bleeds he saw one of then standing over him,
he whispers with his last breath "who are you?",
and the man quickly replied protoclown,
and lobed off the goblins head.
