I've done it!! I have taken something small, whiny and cowardly and turned it into a medium aggressive humanoid lizard with a poisonous bite. Klapklap, now K-Money, has become something greater. He has been geared and is exacting his tasks as spymaster amazingly effectively.

I am waiting on some more gold to create him a spouse. I can't wait until we can start funding these projects with country money instead of out of my own pocket. My pocket is much too empty for my liking.

On a weird note, we ran across an elf/fey thing and those who I figured would murder them on sight decided to talk to them. Artemis and Altrium had an intelligent discussion with them. I sat there for 10 minutes holding sulfur and bat guano in one hand and my pillow in the other without anyone killing anything. I believe we may need to get an executive order about what fey is killable and what isn't because, to me anyway, everything is killable. Especially if I can light it on fire.

The centaurs are interesting. They are a god's fleshwarping project and I can appreciate that.

I can't wait to find the lab of the undead cyclops thing. If I can find a way to harness his trap the soul jars to power things I can make huge advancements in my research and defense of my tower. I would just need a way to keep Altrium from finding out. He is kinda touchy about the whole not dying or not dying completely. At the rate he is rotting hopefully I won't have to worry though.

It has been an interesting year since that gnome screwed up that teleport. Between the burning random creatures and enemies to death, knocking down buildings and researching into forbidden knowledge I've been real busy.

My goals have been moving ahead quickly now that they gave me a tower. Experimentation on random kobold citizens has been good for furthering my research into fleshwarping.

With all the kobolds around I figure I can make them better, stronger and faster. I dub them draconians and my cohort Klap-Klap shall be my first and greatest creation of them. I strive to make them breed true and like their kobold basis. With these and kobolds the kingdom will be greater.

To fill in for our shock troopers I plan to create a creature that takes the best of both those soul-less killing machines called bears and the mindless power and drive of crabs. I dub them mirelurks. They shall be protected by the crab's defensive evolutions, be stable on the multiple legs they have and take the incredible strength of the bears to create something amazing. Of course, they will be fitted with self-destruct triggers that only I will control.

Lastly, I will make something that causes even the horrible creatures of the Wild cringe. The fey shall see my "Deathclaw" and tremble in fear at their impending death. The ferocity of a wolverine, the power and size of a troll and the speed of a quickling. Unfortunately, my bounties for quicklings and wolverines have not brought anything in. I have a troll in my basement at least.

Unfortunately, this all relies on gold I do not have in mass quantities. I will have to focus on the draconians and their breeding ability first to supplement the population to create greater revenue. My fellow rulers will be happy to have more citizens and I will be happy to prefect my technique.

Mwahahahahahahahaha!!
