Odo The Proud

Much has happened since my last entree in this journal. I have found myself in a group of mostly young adventurers which consists of two eladrin, one other halfling, a human, and a mysterious masked fellow who goes by the name of Malleus. That mask really bothers me. What is he trying to hide under that thing? I mean, it has to be uncomfortable to where all the time. It's made of leather. Perhaps I could sneak a look when he is sleeping. Surprisingly, that wasn't the only thing that struck me odd in this party. I can't seem to tell the gender of the warlock eladrin. He/she looks to be female but he/she blinks in out of sight i can't get a good look at him... or her. It could still be a guy... I hope not; but it could be. I guess the only way to really know would be to take a peek while it's sleeping.

Only time will tell the truth about my mysterious companions, but we had to decide a course of action for we had heard numerous rumors. Honestly, I didn't really care much about where which direction we went. All of these rumors seemed equally amusing. Five days into our travel we were attacked by wolves. Something wasn't right about these wolves. Well, alot of things weren't right about these wolves. They were big and they had the black worm things inside of them. It was a little startling to find myself facing three of these alone. The rest of the group must have been thirty or forty feet away. We managed to kill all but two of these wolves which we tracked only to find more interesting things. I decided to get a little ahead of the group when we saw a campfire. Sneaking up to the camp I saw a bigger fellow and at that moment I saw the opportunity to snatch his weapon. I figured if i could disarm him he would be easier to take down. If only Drel could have seen the look on his face when he reached for his axe and realized it wasn't there.

After making mince meat out of the barbarian we followed another that we had seen to what seemed to be some kind of ruins where we were confronted by several others. I pounced around the battle field dealing damage but trying not to take to many blows. I made a point to stay out of sight of the caster. His attacks seemed rather viscous. On of my comrades went down but none-the-less the combat had been going in our favor the whole time.

This was a very interesting night. We ended up finding some humans that had been captured and halfway eaten. It was hard for me to imagine what these people where going to do with their lives now that they had been freed. I was mostly concerned about the ones with severed limbs. I mean what are going to do poke people for a living.

The investigation of these cultist is definitely important but we are going to have to put them off for now. We shall return these humans back to town and continue our quests from there.

Odo The Mighty

I made it a point to check my surroundings when I awoke this morning. My brother Drel constantly has me on high alert with all of his tricks. Just the other day he somehow managed to catch me in a net on the way home from gathering some firewood and this morning i knew he had something up his sleeve. I could almost feel him in the room. I rose to my feet and when saw he was nowhere in sight i took my first step and i immediately found myself back on the ground. My toes were tied together and on top of that Drel had leaped out of the shadows onto my back. Ever since before i can remember, his trickery had sparked a fire inside of me. Yet, this fire is not fueled by hate. It's more envy than anything. Somehow, Drel could pull off the most complex tricks with the gracefulness of a tree stump.

Atleast Drel stayed behind with me and gramps. All three of my other brothers set out soon after our parents were killed. I guess with Drel being the oldest he felt responsible for looking after me and gramps. I was only 8 when it happened. The second eldest, Merric, set out with high hopes of great adventures and the twins seemingly dissapeared overnight. Atleast thats how it seemed to me. Drel informed me today that he saw them the night that they left and they were speaking to a strange individual. He overheard a deal being made. I don't remember exactly what Drel was muttering about but something about magic and a favor they would each have to fullfill later. Drel tells me stories of the many beasts that Merric has rid this world of but he never brings up the twins... untill today, and now he suggests that I set out. "It's your time," he says.

Why me??? I don't even have any skills that prove to be any use. Everything I know is just a mock up version of what I've seen him do. He should be the one setting out on this "adventure." The sound of it is kind of appealing though.
Odo The Great
Odo The Mighty
Odo The Nimble
Those are all names i could get used to...

So, that's it. I, Odo, have decided to set out on an adventure but first i must eat a late night meal.
