On this strange planet we explore
And what can we do but implore?
The spiral HQ
To see what we do
And pay us a little bit more.
But HQ says it's out of the question
"If you want it, then show some aggression!"
Snarbolax, we come
With three swords and a gun
To test our time honored profession.
Well fought, you mangy old beast
You did not disappoint in the least
But if I may
I complain, to this day
That his corpse was not much of a feast.
Four knights on a run to the Core
Chanced upon a young wolver who swore
"Better cover your tracks
'Cause here comes Snarbolax
And he'll leave you all battered and sore!"
Then from out of a hedge did appear
Basil carrying a bunch of new gear
"I have just what you need
To make that beast bleed
And I'll sell you one each have no fear!"
But sadly the knights were all broke
Having spent all their crowns on a coke
Basil won't take CE
And the markets not free
So one of the knights smiled and spoke
"It seems we're a bit strapped for cash
But this beast will be easy to trash
If you'll loan us just one
And after we're done
We can pay you with loot from the bash"
Basil thought for a minute and said
"Well I've got this new crowbar I've read
Might be just the thing
For this foul wolver king
And may help you to kill the beast dead"
So the knight that spoke up grabbed the bar
And behind them a deafening roar
Signaled the attacks
Of the beast Snarbolax
And an army of wolvers weren't far
The knights fought as hard as they could
But the outlook sure didn't look good
As more wolvers poured in
And their life bars grew thin
Till soon only the one knight still stood
But the knight beaten down to a fluff
Saw the crowbar just wasn't to snuff
Cause a hit of the rental
Only did elemental
And that's why you should never pry wolf!"
Oh Snarbolax so ugly yet fierce
Twas your mighty spikes with which you pierced
My only ally, my closest friend
Whom I had to revive once again
To help me fight it which disappears
Oh evil one your days are numbered
For that night we lost shall be remembered
We come with strength and swords held high
To your lair, the place where you lie
Take heed my foe we shall not be hindered
We've planned the battle, how it will begin
How we will fight and how it will end
We've trained long and hard for this day to come
In the cold of the night, in the heat of the sun
Beware mighty beast as we seek our revenge
Alas tis time for the battle to commence
For it's been many long days and nights since
My trusted friend was felled by your claws
And gave way for our mission, our great and just cause
Oh great Snarbolax, I can't take the suspense
We fought and fought as night fell upon us
Many were lost, from wolvers that ambushed
But we reached the beast's lair and started the fight
Ahh the stories that will be told of that night
From my cold iron sword, the beast fell vanquished.
Beware the chulsome Snarbolax, my Knight,
Unless you're karowling for a fight
Whose prize goes unseen
As a chromalisk's green
To proud braggans who deign not just kite.
And before you leave I must expound
On this forgant foe I've seen around:
You may think it simple
To make an early boss crimple,
But whence think you plawed these grave mounds?
You see, though his claws can croom boulders
And his gaze splarks beholders,
These are hardly distressing
For brave heroes progressing:
It's his breath that most Knights cannot shoulder.
Not an actual entry, since it's from one of the judges.
The Blonde Saga
There once was a blonde from L.A.
Who spent too much time on eBay.
She clicked on an ad
That made her quite glad
Twas an MMO Free-to-Play.
She died many times as a newb.
From not shielding that pinkish cube.
Her M.E. depleted.
The blonde was defeated.
Aha! Let's watch strats on YouTube!
Free-to-play blonde armed with plastic.
Decided to go bombastic.
Less than twenty in cash,
Comes with Static Flash,
Energy, stuff, just fantastic!
The steadfast blonde went a shopping.
Trade chat and A.H. a hopping.
With sexier gear,
The jellies now fear,
Charge attacks from plastic non-stopping!
So new boss beware of The Blonde.
Your Frumious Fangs she'll abscond.
Wilder than Snarby
Meet Plastic Barbie
The Stunning Belle with VISA wand.
