Adamantine handwraps and a story wanted

[Glenalth]

I need a set of adamantine handwraps so my cleric stops breaking his hands when punching golems and stoned people.

BUT

I also want a story.


Best story posted in the next 52 2/3 hours gets one full set of Shroud larges in exchange for their adamantine wraps.

No PMs or in-game tells on this one. Posts have to be in this thread.

Bonus points for the story being about Brisqoe the Dentist and/or also being a poem.

I have zero interest in the handwraps; and have none in my possession to trade, but...I'm a writer at heart, and need to go for it.

There once was a dentist named Brisqoe,
Who quite liked to dance at the disco.
He had all the smooth moves,
And chilled with the grooves,
And liked to roll in San Francisco??????

I thought a sonnet was too much, but perhaps a cinquain or limerick was an appropriate level of effort. I suppose I could have rolled in Cisco or Crisco, but that would just be lazy.

Sorry. It's late, and I'm quite toasted, and not really knowing Glenalth, that's all I've got. Nighty-night.

That is eerily close to what is in Brisqoe's bio right now.

No wraps to trade. Futhermore, I have no talent for stories and poems on my native language, worse yet on english. But I joined I few crappy LFM's and got bored...

This might be a true story...



Brisqoe, the Dentist went to a Shroud,

so he could heal a few dps'ers who were 'round


When the devil died he felt it surge

He could not withstand, it was a urge


Hence he touched the altar he couldn't resist

It was of marble, the ol' giants made it


Alas, there was a laggard he was a arty

Who did not recalled and didn't left party


Yet the laggard got a bone and that's no shiny

Brisqoe got a scale then linked it to the tardy


So the Laggard came to the forums, and cried

And Brisqoe the Dentist, with his white teeth he smiled

Great job and it amuses me.

An update... Best story, handwraps or not, will also get...

3 sets of small and medium shroud ingredients
OR
1 bind on equip beater for the enemy type of their choice

Best story with handwraps still gets the large ingredient package.

Uhm I dont think adamantine handwraps exist because all monks eventually break adamantine DR... splashes may be screwed in this department.... I could be wrong though

[Havok.cry]

Brisqoe the dentist was a monk
Who really didn't have the funk
Because she had too much spunk
When she played she couldn't dunk
Because she had too much junk

They exist, I've had a few pairs drop for me. Then I made a clonk and needed them

Some on the AH right now for 350k too.

Cool. Wish you luck getting a pair

Getting them is not a problem, having fun along the way is more important.

Last week I made an artificer and got to level 10ish. It was around then that I decided to explore the wonderful tradition known as "raiding". I didn't feel like doing titan or von...so i settled for a mere Tempest's Spine. I ventured up the hill and to the quest giver...and lo...what I saw behind Tempest's Spine was truly a glorious and horrible sight. There was this guy from some guild named after a Bob Saget sitcom...he was paying halflings to....well, I can't really talk about it here. Definitely NSFW.

Anyway, this Tab guy yelled for me to come join his party and that we would quest for glory. This was a facade...there was no questing. He handed me a drink and everything after that was a blur. When I awoke, I ventured to the tavern and tried to repair my..."equipment"...but the barkeep said it had been permanently damaged. Never again will I go behind Tempest's Spine alone...never again, not even once.

Not a very good story.

There are whispers all over Stormreach about a divine so powerful it is whispered in hush tones his nickname is Superman. He is one of the elite few founders still alive. He was born in stormreach when it was still a ghost town and the only real fear was the Delera’s Haunted Graveyard. He started as a popper with only the clothes on his back and a twinkle in his eye,an aptitude for poker and adventure and his heart. It is rumored he earned his fortune by beating Zues in a game of poker with Rolled UP Aces Over Kings and is still the only gunslinger still undefeated and if you give him a T1 connection Hati’s himself wouldn’t dare challenge him. He has mastered his entire domain and sits on top of his mountain in his fortress of solitude waiting for an adventure that can test his ability. The great and holy divine in the sky DDO has not given him a sufficient challenge. He begs them for more adventures and immortals to challenge his ability,but he only gets silence in return. So he plays poker all day and raids Stormreach all night with his band of brothers the AOK gang. Even the great and almighty god Turbine bows down to his greatness and thinks of him as an equal. Whisper his name quietly if you dare. Behold the Almighty God Brisqoe the Dentist.

Brisqoe was a man from nantucket
His patients would spit in a bucket.
He would pass them the bill.
they would call him a shill
then they would tell him to suck it.

Thank you everyone for the stories and poems

Fabhpk's poem is by far my favorite.

Fabhpk gets a choice of 3 sets of small/med ingredients or a hand crafted beater. Just let me know which and where you want them.


It doesn't look like anyone was offering a set of wraps, so the fancy set of larges is still in my bag. Off to the auction house unless someone that's already posted a story here speaks up.
