Beastriders – It’s A Great Idea, And Someone Should Listen
Being a shaman is hard work! I’m pretty sure I’m up to the challenge, but I was hoping to find a way out into something even cooler than being the commander of weather itself.
After opening up a “Walletman Contest”, Luis Booth gave me details on an awesome new class I could take on: Beastrider!
I think this could work..
All you need is a beast to ride, and you can just sit back and let it do all the work. Finding beasts is easy – my hometown is crawling with ‘em! Plus if I could get a sweet dinosaur from those ugly trolls, I’d be tearing up face in no time.
Okay, ignore the bad coordination
So maybe getting on the beast is harder than I thought. I’m not really known for my coordination…usually, brute strength is enough. But coordination is the name of the game when you’re leaping onto the back of a moving animal.
I could try it side-saddle
Sitting down on them is a lot easier than getting on them all the way. Then I could ride side-saddle…like a girl…okay, it is a good idea, but I don’t think I have the smarts to implement this. Better go talk to the master of animals.
Hey cook, listen to this idea!
A butcher should know a lot about animals, right? So I laid out Booth’s plan. It’s a good plan, but I don’t think he took me seriously.
Blah blah, boars are for meat
“Walletman, I know animals are good for one thing – eatin’! Don’t say you’ve gone vegetarian on me now…” Will no one hear me out? I think this is the best idea that’s ever come across my desk. My mental desk. It’s pretty much like my head, but I imagine there’s some hot lady sitting at the desk doing paperwork. Mental paperwork.
