Message-ID: Date: Fri, 5 Jun 1992 17:52:57 GMT The inn door swings open to reveal small childlike being,humanoid in appearance,his face alight with experiences of many and varied descriptions.He wears a homespun tunic,and a short (for humans anyway) cloak.He also wears some garish red leggings and no footwear.His hair have a small growing of hair on their tops. Also,he wears an improbable number of pouches strewn all about his person,but most of them around his waist.As he enters the inn,he sees lots of interesting people sitting around talking to people,and quietly he moves through the crowd. Eventually he reaches the bar,stands on a stool and asks the innkeeper for drink of some description. "Oh ",says the barman casually,"and where do you hale from friend halfling ?" The little figure stares at him,deeply insulted. "I'm no halfling!",he says indignantly,"I am a kender from Krynn." This voice appears to carry across the room. Suddenly everybody is startled and checks their money pouches. Most of them have disappeared. The kender spends the next five minutes giving pouches and rings and wands back to their owners with charming little smiles and exclamations of ,"I wonder how that got into pouches-" "Oh is this really yours? You should be more careful,it might get stolen." and, "Redtassle Marigold at your service.Is this really your ring,it's so nice." That night everybody got introduced to the kender by himself and kept a close eye on their belongings. -- ]]>>>Mithrandir<<<[[ ]]>>tkelly@unix2.tcd.ie<<[[ "In the uttermost West I was Olorin,In the South I am Incanus, among the elves I am Mithrandir,in the North I am Gandalf.
