Hello Hunters!
A new year dawns upon us all and after some serious drinking thinking we have come up with several grandiose plans for the guild. Not only do we plan on refurbishing your quarters we also may even get somebody to clean them, most unlikely!
Alas, all of that is for the marvelous future. As for now, we are looking for investors in order to buy some paper so that we may start planning your new quarters. If any of you have connections of such sorts do not hold your tongues, whoever manages to haul some funds our way shall expect unique treatment at the canteen. This may even let them consume two whole, untouched potato halves. A dessert reserved only for the greatest champions of our magnificent guild! Prepared by a master chef, uniquely skilled not only in the gourmet arts but the art of stealth as well, since we haven’t seen him in years… However, that’s a problem quest for another time.
Although, most of you us can only dream of potatoes we have some very real nightmares in our lives due to the dead plague, such creatures are the zombie abominations, read on and find out why!
As if the ordinary returned people were not hideous enough, their magically enhanced kin set the bar a notch higher. The fusion of several dead people and magical formulas creates these peculiar monsters with bulging greenish veins all over their grotesque bodies. However, if only their appearance was disgusting there would be no need to write about them in detail.
Usually they reach the height of a smaller giant, making them quite easy to spot. Given their massive size their movements are quite sluggish, which greatly increases the chances of evading their attacks. However, they may be slow but, even if they are not right next to you they will cause you harm! Beware the miasma that surrounds them as it poisons every living being and slowly corrodes their skin.
If they are angered or threatened they slam the ground in front of them causing a miasmic spree in that area. This could be considered their most fearsome attack, if a regular human were to take it head-on they would most likely splatter under it. Therefore, it is best to make extremely quick work of these foes, only engage them in melee combat if you don’t have other means or you have a death wish!
Finally, to contrast these damnable notes we would like to give you proof of the benevolence of mankind, to show you that even in dark times kind hearted people exist! Believe it or not, some foreign traders have come to our guild the other day and offered us some magical equipment. You should all know how rare such weapons are, therefore we were delighted and astonished at the same time! Not only did they not accept any sort of compensation they even left right after giving us the weapon crates, we even offered them some delicacies but they refused and left swiftly.
We thought that the goods must be fake or defective so we headed to the nearby graveyard to try them out and surprisingly had quite a fun time blasting some bone heads. We still cannot understand why such luck has befallen us but after contemplating for some time we realized that it can only be due to our great efforts at purging the lands from the dead plague. Now even foreigners started to appreciate us.
However, for some intangible reason I cannot dispel my feelings of doubt, as if this was too good to be true but so far nothing stands to empower my fears!
One peculiarity though was to see how relieved these people became after leaving the weapons at our guild, as if a curse was lifted from them. I could even see a trace of pity in their eyes when they looked at us….
Alas it cannot be easy to forfeit such treasures so easily.
Until next time, may similar luck befall you all!
P.S. You can take a look at some real time weapon crafting right here!
