Requiem for a hardened Ranger's Best friend

[Thaddeus Windworn]

Biscuit, my 8th level companion met his end tonight at the hands of a merciless caster. But he died as he lived, protecting the squishes in the party, and likely thinking of his celebratory steak. I'd like to believe that he felt none of the 96 points of disintegrate damage he took, but I bet it hurt like hell.

So my good friend (pours mead from flagon), rest well. I shall carry a small sample of your ashes in a locket, so that we may travel together, until Pharasma claims me. I shall now retreat into the woods to meet a new friend, though they shall never replace you.

*sniffs*

I hope you have that villians skull as a memento. Everyone drink up.

[G'darm Youn]

Sorry, Thaddeus. G'Darm have turkey; want some?

[Thaddeus Windworn]

G'Darm, thank you my friend.

Flutter, I did not take our foes' skull, only some of Biscuit's ashes.

OoC - I am frankly amazed that Biscuit survived as long as he did. Making baddies go through an animal companion to get to squishy casters is a hard way to earn a dollar, though rogues loved him. He was super fun to play, and after a couple of beers, I thought it would be fun to eulogize him.

Up next, I think Thaddeus is getting a Moose.

If you do, and you don't name him Bullwinkle, Biscuit will never forgive you.

Though I had only recently met him, I was greatly saddened by Biscuit's passing. Shortly afterwards my blade found its mark in the evil doer's vital organs. (To the tune of around 120 damage I believe)

A fitting tune to send Biscuit on his final journey, indeed.

[Thaddeus Windworn]

Yes Hiroki, that bastard suffered at the edge of your blade. That was one heavy hit my friend. His death was not in vain. For if not him, it was likely you, me, or the oracle who would have received the full force of that blast.

[Thaddeus Windworn]

@Bigdaddyjug, it was the first name that came to mind, but I don't think I could do it. Maybe I'll name him Rocky just to drive everyone up a wall.

[Imbicatus]

You could call him Goose and make Top Gun references. Or Spruce and make Howard Hughes ones.

[Lamontius]

well
bye

[Thaddeus Windworn]

Imbicatus and Lamontius, big, hearty lols to you both.

I was hoping to see a wild Selleck appear.
