The Wonderful Amazing Coin Of Listening
donated by gien (and co gien) lookaround
Description: well, it looks like any other typical
magical glowing coin of listening. but
this ones special. because it... 'cause
it makes people listen to you. but only
when your telling a story about the
coin. like one time the coin saved me
from being eaten by a dragon... where
was i? oh yes, it's a glowing coin,
that glows different colors. it works
great in dark places, because it glows
and all... one time i was wandering in
a dark cave that smelt really bad and i
wanted to see around.. (you know, to
see why it smelt) it turned out that
there was some quite unhappy trolls
that i awoke. i tried to explain that i
didnt MAKE them sleep where i was
wandering, but you know trolls. they
dont listen much anyhow...
History: well. thats a long story... if you want
to listen, it came from a wizard in
flotsam, where i was listening to one
of his story's abour how some neat
glowing coin saved him from an army of
knights. he said he made it to 'charm'
people into listening to his stories.
but his stories were interesting enough
without the coin... like this one story
about how he talked a turtle to sleep.
now THAT story was incredible and at
first i didnt believe it, what happened
was... oh, oh yes well anyway i had
this glowing coin too.. and i was
wondering if he could tell me about it,
but when i showed it too him he told me
it was his and tried to turn me into a
rock. but seeing as how old mages are
kind of slow and he stopped running
after me after a while. i cant imagine
where he went...
How it Works: well first off it makes people listen
to the stories you tell, when your
holding it of course... (while telling
a story, the holder always gets the
initiative because everyone else is
busy listening to you) second off it
glows, it works great while looking for
a light to help with those dark troll
filled caves (this also means that you
could litterally 'talk your way' out of
almost anything, as long as you know a
good story or two... |
