Mylo the Kender
**You enter a strange
looking temple. This temple looks a lot different than any other temple you have
ever seen. This temple is in total disarray; there is no uniformity anywhere. As
you are looking around a hand reaching into your backpack startles you. You
quickly grab the hand and remove it from your belongings. The hand belongs to
Mylo the Kender.**
Oh hello. Welcome to the Church of HEAD. My name is Mylo the Kender and I am the
Senshal for HEAD. Allow me to introduce you to this wonderful religion.
**Mylo directs you to follow him as he begins to explain the tenants of HEAD.**
First of all, a famous Kender, Damon Notlock, established the religion of Head
many years ago. In fact, let me read to you from the sacred book of HEAD how
this religion was founded.
**Mylo reaches into one of his many pouches and pulls out a book entitled,
"Mylo, an Autobiography". **
Oops, wrong book. However this fine book, detailing my life story will soon be
available in all fine bookstores.
**Mylo skillfully leaves his autobiography in plain site for you to view as he
reaches into his pouch and pulls out a second book entitled, "The Book of
HEAD".**
**Mylo opens the book and begins to read.**
Founding of the Church of
HEAD
On the shard known as
Atlantic lived a well-known sage known as Garek Wyrmscar. This sage has written
many fabled stories that have become the folklore of many races. While working
on a collection of poems in his study, he is interrupted by an unwelcomed
knocking at his door.
"Hey Garek, let me in. You promised that I could help you write your poems
if I went to Hyloth and found a hellhound to play with. Well I found one, so let
me in at once." Says Mylo the Kender as he is pounding on the door to the
study.
"Damn. That stupid Kender is back. I thought that I finally got rid of him
by sending him into to Hyloth to play with the hellhounds. How is he still
alive?" A frustrated Garek wonders as he grudgingly lets Mylo in.
"Hi Garek. It is so nice to see you again. I have missed you." Mylo
says as he hugs the now annoyed human.
"GET OFF ME YOU STUPID KENDER! And get your hands out of my pouches this
instant!" Garek yells as he pulls Mylo off himself.
**Mylo is forcibly extracted from Garek, but not before "finding" an
interesting object in one of Garek's pouches.**
"Hey what is this? Is this a new story you are working on? Can I read
it?"
"NO! GIVE THAT BACK you miserable little creature before I turn you into a
toad and watch as you give yourself warts." Garek threatens Mylo.
"Really? Could you do that Garek? Please? I think I would make a great
toad. " Mylo says.
**Mylo starts jumping around yelling "ribbit" and sticking his tongue
out of his mouth as he tries to catch a fly. However he instead bumps into a
table, sending a pie into the air which lands right in the face of Garek.**
"THAT DOES IT KENDER! You are dead!" Garek yells as he wipes the pie
off his face.
Laughing uproariously at Garek, Mylo easily avoids Garek's wild charge.
Soon getting bored playing "Chase the Kender", Mylo again wonders
about the book."Garek what is in that book? Please let me read it. I
promise I won't lose it. I promise not to trade the book for a harp like last
time. Even though that harp was very pretty and I think it was a great trade…."
Mylo rambles.
"ENOUGH KENDER! Shut up! **sighs** OK if I read this book to you will you
promise to leave me alone?" Garek asks.
"I promise Garek!" Mylo says with a big smile on his face.
