[Wehnimer's, Outside Gate]
Citizens, merchants and assorted dregs of society jostle against you before the great wooden gates of Wehnimer's Landing. Harried guards and militiamen try to keep the chaos to a minimum, but it is hard to keep track of those entering, let alone leaving, this large trading post. A dirt path encircling the wooden palisade of the town leads east and southwest. Nailed prominently to the wooden wall beside the gate is a sign you really should read.

[Hearthstone, Courtyard]
Before you stands a grand old manor, framed by huge willows to the east and west. The elegant trees sway gently in the moonlight, dappling the cobblestone courtyard with ever-shifting patterns of light and dark.

Grabbs suddenly falls silent as all the color drains from his face, and his eyes slowly roll back into his head. As Grabbs continues to stare straight ahead with blank, white eyes, he begins to shudder like a limp corpse hanging and blowing in the wind.

You'll always find him IC. He'll act stupid and immature sometimes, but he'll never go OOC. He won't even use the WARN verb (I've threatened pain of death if I ever found out he did) and believe me, he's been in plenty of situations that would warrent a WARNing.

He truely deserved an Oscar for his performance in helping me harass Zarvon into paying me my money back. Absolutely brilliant. I love you Grabbs, you hear me?

Now, let's deed his ass.

Falgrin is supposed to be capped? Did you bother telling him that.. since he's only trained about 75 times?

And do you really think he would need to go all out with someone who is laying down sleeping with something other than a weapon in his right hand?

Get a clue.

Again.. I later felt bad about killing him. My bad there.
