Bards throughout Meshworld (or wherever) tell
of the original Gharzia Gnarltooth's deeds: a renowned adventurer
who slew a foul dragon that threatened the city – along with other
exploits that made popular in numerous woodcarvings, many of which
had to be purchased in brown paper wrappings (especially the one
about that breast enlarging potion).
In her later years, she settled down and used
part of her amassed loot to open a tavern. Called "The Flaming
Dwarf," it was named after the party member who could summon forth
powerful flames; flames that often incinerated his clothing! However,
everyone decided that "The Flaming Naked Dwarf" was not a place
they wanted to drink at.
Eventually the bar passed to her son, who was
often mistaken for her daughter. Somehow, the potion that had enhanced
Gharzia's chest became firmly entrenched in her genetics… much
to his dismay. Despite that hurdle, he too spawned, and passed
both the breasts and the bar down to his daughter, named Gharzia
after his mother. On a side note, all Gharzia's granddaughters
have her name; which is a real pain at family gatherings when someone
would say 'Gharzia', and a half dozen heads would turn.
The bar unfortunately did not last very long in
this Gharzia's hands. Through no fault of her own mind you, but
nonetheless, it is now a smoldering pile of rubble. She has set
forth on a quest. Covering the repair costs will require looting
a dragon's hoard. Actually, she's pretty certain it's not going
to work, but she believes watching Fighter Ninja try and fight
a dragon will make her feel that much better inside.
Despite being surrounded by lunatics, she's kept
her good nature. Her drink mixing skills are unmatched by any other
orc other than Ghroan the Blinding who makes the strongest stuff
around (the sort that makes ogres tipsy). Nevertheless, people
prefer to keep their sight, so Gharzia remains on top (which is
also a nice image). Besides, Ghroan looks horrifying in a tight
tank top – some things just should not be!
