What is the filk theme this week?

[Spark]

*brushes away tear.

[Brand Nar Gath]

I wonder what happened to those heroes?

I've heard of them, they are a band of hero's that go by the name 'Local Genocide'

[Náriël Telemnar]

The only deacon of Torm I know is the one who wanted to kill the gnome prisoner so that no one would know of our plans to acquire the treasure from the Nymph's Kiss. 

Your diminutive skull seems to hold memories only briefly. I did not advocate killing the gnome once he was our prisoner. I said that we should turn him over to the townsfolk since he has done them wrong.

And there is no evil in finding a way to recover the sunken gold. It is helping no one where it is now. Think how many children and hin will be able to have shoes and a warm meal once we donate a hefty tithe of our recovered treasure.

The Ghostwise aside (the hin equivalent to the hillbilly), all hin wear shoes.  They are just smaller and better crafted than those slapping clown-shoes that adorn your gigantic feet.  And there are several children that I can think of that may be in need of a meal.  One can only imagine that there are several waifs that have become fatherless, or even orphans, as a direct result of the crash of the Nymph's Kiss.  I can only assume that you still remember what it is like to be an orphan.  Not all orphans were brought up under the safety and protection of the church.  For some children, life is a daily life-or-death struggle, and if we were to recover the gold and provide it to those families who lost their breadwinners, we would be heroes indeed.  Of course, I know nothing about the day-to-day needs of a member of the faith.  Perhaps a solid gold puke bucket is a necessity for one such as yourself, a necessity that far outweighs the needs of those struggling townsfolk who have suffered such a recent loss.  Perhaps by our taking the treasure from the wreckage of those noble sailors of Fair Harbor we will be teaching them that they must not rely upon their families for sustenance, but should instead learn a trade of their own.  These townfolk should know:  The needs of a few "heroes" sometimes far outweighs the needs of an entire  village.

yeah since the group's tithe to Torm all comes from your share your vow of poverty is well covered.

[Gabriel Cash]

Amazing how someone so short can be so long winded.

Upon further reflection I realize that we did give the hin authority to parley for us, and while I may not like the deal he struck with the gnome I will back him up on it. Otherwise why would he feel safe in negotiating with anyone on our behalf in the future.

Also I have never even pretended to be motivated by anything other than greed. I'm a vile little bastard and I'm quite comfortable with that fact.

I also remember a group of heroes who stood beside (er... above) me and pledged the same. 

I didn't mean everybody.

The hin makes a good point. After we recover the treasure, we should donate a healthy chunk of it to the local village to help out the widows and orphans. Perhaps set up a trust fund...or a temple of Torm to take care of the orphans. It worked for me...made me the man I am today.

yes but do we want to get into the business of neutering small children?

GNOMEWARD BOUND (Sung to the tune of “Homeward Bound” by Paul Simon)

I'm walkin’ through a distant dungeon
Beating monsters with a truncheon, mmhmm
On a quest to save this land
A deacon and hin in our band
And every fight is poorly planned
Until we found that little man

CHORUS:
Gnomeward bound
Looks like we are
Gnomeward bound
Gnome who thinks of escaping
Gnome who the DM’s playing
Gnome whose spells he was aiming
Violently at me

Every day's an endless fight
Against nausea spells and ogre might
And each cavern looks the same to me
The pit traps and the spores we breathe
Now, quarrelling about this foe so wee
Has brought the party to its knees

[CHORUS]

I know somebody gave his word
But it still seems so absurd
To open the cage and free this bird
We need to stomp this little turd

[CHORUS]

DISGUST FOR LIFE (Sung to the tune of “Lust for Life” by Iggy Pop)

Here I am all in black again
With the zombies and ghouls
And the skeletons
I’m gonna curse you with a disease
Hey man, where'd ya get that potion?
I've been hurting since you made me drink that thing
Was it supposed to cure wounds
Yeah, supposed to cure wounds
Well, that's like feeding me poison
Well, I'm just a creepy girl
Of course, I've slept in a grave before

I’ve got disgust for life
'Cause of disgust for life
I'm worth a million in g.p.
With my hurting touch
Energy’s negative
Wear a death’s head charm and a long black cloak
I'm worth a million in g.p.
Yeah, I'm through with acting like the town scribe
I’ll be eating those brains
I’ll be eating those brains
With zombies and ghouls
With zombies and ghouls
Well, I'm just a creepy girl
Of course, I've slept in a grave before
Well, I've disgust for life (disgust for life)
'Cause of disgust for life (disgust for life, ooooh)
I got disgust for life (ooooh)
Got disgust for life (ooooh)
Oh, disgust for life (ooooh)
Oh, disgust for life (ooooh)
Disgust for life (ooooh)
I got disgust for life (ooooh)
Got disgust for life

Well, I'm just a creepy girl, of course
I've slept in a grave before
Well, I've disgust for life
'Cause I've disgust for life

Here I am all in black again
With the zombies and ghouls
And the skeletons
I’m gonna curse you with a disease
Hey man, where'd ya get that potion?
My skin started itching once you fed me that garbage, trying to cure my wounds
Wounds, wounds, wounds
Well, that's like feeding me poison
Well, I'm just a creepy girl
Of course, I've slept in a grave before
And I've disgust for life (disgust for life)
'Cause I've disgust for life (disgust for life)
Got disgust for life, yeah
Disgust for life
I got disgust for life
Disgust for life
Got disgust for life
Yeah disgust for life
I got disgust for life
Disgust for life (repeat…)
