Laughter is a Serious Buisiness

Hall of Honour

Bestowed by readers who would defend this scroll.

Chaos and Law have reached a comprmise and stopped thier warring. This truce holds as long as the respecitve priests honors the other's ways for one day of the year. Lawful preists must incite a large decadant celebration or carelessness and the chaotic priests must chaperone the event and keep the party from turning ugly while remaining out of involvement. Thus the warring of the gods has been kept in check for decades and all is well. At least untill the materials for the party come up missing two short weeks before the truce day...

A yearly celebration of appeasment to the gods is in jeapordy. The lawful priests need components and supplies to create the laughter and chaos needed to quell the humor of the Chaotic Gods. In two short weeks, the lawful priests must become decadant lunatics for the night or a war of the Gods will sweep through heavan and earth. The players are charged with the task of gathering a bizzare list of ingrediants to save the world from an apocolypse. A novice priest is sent along with them to guide them to thier destinations while the rest of the priesthood tries to cover up thier lack of preperations and find the sabatour.

Some of the items needed might include these:

Itching Dust: the item that inspired this silly quest.

Farting Frogs Bladders for whoopie cushions.

Spark stones for joy buzzers. No lethal jolts here, at least not on the consumer end. A vien of this rock in a mine could prove hazardous.

Blue Honey from giant blue bees. Colorless when cooked, changes back to blue on consuption.

Black seal fat from Black slime seals to make soap that covers hands in inky slime.

The party might gather the items and return to find the sabotuer has struck again, stealing the sacred dribble reliqury. Now they have to chase down the party unknown (chaotic priests bent on the last laugh, or lawful priests on a quest to stomp out chaos?) and recover the drinking vessel.

Once this escapade is done, the party is indebted to by at least one of the holy orders and can look forward to a party that would shame Mardi Gras.

for Laughter is a Serious Buisiness

The Hall of Honour is your mark on a submission you believe is frick’n awesome — so good you would jump in front of a dragon’s breath to protect the scroll it is written on.

Bestowing HoH also highlights it on the front of the Citadel for about a day, so others see the recognition it earned.

You may bestow HoH on the same submission up to your level (with a short wait between strikes). Five distinct HoH voters raise a work to Golden.

    Just a simple fun adventure and you can be as silly as you want.

    Eggs of a Juniper bird that when cracked are the most horrid smelling thing you ever did smell.

    Gorgan snails, their slime is some of the most slippery stuff you will ever find.

    Wasteview Cricket, when startled it makes a horribly high chirping sound, and they are almost impossible to catch and they just keep chirping and chirping...

    I really like the idea, but the typos and spelling errors are a bit distracting. Can you give it a once-over to clean them up? Then I can give it the high score it deserves.
