The Wrasslin Knights of Naming

hen after a trip through the Trinsic forests I
reached the south gate of Trinsic, I ran into a mob of strange people. I watched them from
a secure distance for a few minutes and saw them attacking a knight who wanted to get into
town. Fortunately the mob was weak and the knight was strong enough to slay his way to
town. I was tired of waiting, so I left my hiding place and went to the bridge, which I
had to cross in order to enter Trinsic. The mob crowded in front of the bridge and
was blocking the path to the gate. I noticed that almost everyone of them was dishonorable.
Then they made a big mistake: Some of them were swearing at me and approaching me in war
mode. I lifted my sword and when the first one attacked me with his bare hands (!), I gave
him some blows until his blood was splashing to the ground, giving the sand a dark red
color. They really seemed to be crazy jerks trying to commit suicide!
I had to be careful
about not getting into trouble with the guards. So I retreated.
Two of the jerks followed me, still in attacking position. I decided to hide. The fact
they couldn't see me anymore seemed to confuse them totally. Suddenly I started to run
towards the bridge again. They followed me at once. I was annoyed by their stupid
behavior, and before they could utter any more remarks their two dead bodies dropped to
the ground. The others seemed to be quite upset about this, and I took the opportunity of
general confusion to enter the town.
A few weeks later I found the following news in a Britannian Event Paper:
THE WRASSLIN KNIGHTS OF NAMING
"The world is filled with people of ill repute... we know them by their poor choice of names... they are the one that you think 'I should kill this person just on principle' but hesitate because you will be penalized in notoriety... you guessed it... they are the terrible named ones!!! The ones with names like BILBO, Gandalf, or could it be DaRtH VaDeR? Yes, we must rid the world of these offensive players! Unite to end their (& our) suffering! Meet at the south beach in Trinsic, at 9:00 EST on the 10th of Feb. (on the CATSKILLS shard) for the WWF WRASSLIN KNIGHTS OF NAMING Quest! The point is to have a mob scene running rampant through the streets... then to wreak havoc in the dungeon. When (or if) we succeed and get out of the dungeon with our lives, we can then return to trinsic & give the loot to charity. Chances are though, that not many will live, unless we are better wrestlers than I assume. (which we are not) "
With this auspicious beginning, the Mob of WWF Knights of Naming began their quest on Tuesday night. A few unlucky ones with bad names got in the way, and even dared to try to use weapons... we quickly put an end to that nonsense. Mr. T was a nightmare to behold... he was a wrasslin inferno!
