I am the Dragon of Grondok.
If you found the sword on page 87, you may now attempt to slay me for a ‘Hero of Page 109’ MTGC Gold trophy. You must type a 1,000 word non-spam post detailing a battle with the Dragon of Grondok before we reach page 110. It can be serious or funny.
mrmaul558 approached the clearing with a bit of hesitation.
Now was his chance. No longer would he have to try so goddamned hard. He could be an hero.
Or he could be a hero. Only time would tell.
The Dragon of Grondok had already awoken when he arrived. 'Twas a sight to behold; The Dragon was smaller than you'd expect - Yellow, very cute eyes and small wings. But mrmaul558 knew better... mrmaul558 understood the true power of the Dragon of
Grondok.
mrmaul558 pulled out his sword and declared himself ready for battle. The Dragon expunged a mighty breath of fire, almost as if to say, "Come at me bro".
mrmaul558 looked around for spectators - Gutter Skulks were all around him. He knew that once this battle had reached its climax, songs would be sung about his triumph for pages and pages to come.
Charging forth, sword drawn, mrmaul558 tried as hard as he ever did. He ran and ran and ran... but the dragon was not drawing nearer. It seemed that the harder mrmaul558 tried to reach the dragon, the further away it became.
mrmaul558 was confused, and started Cursing the skies. "Why hath thou forsaken me, Nai?! I learned from the greatest, who were than cast aside like cheap furry TCG cards, and was told that I could make it!"
Suddenly, a wild kpaca appeared, and told mrmaul558 to man the fuck up.
Almost at the same time, a wild kijin appeared and told mrmaul558 to stfu, that he would never mentor mrmaul558 , and that
he was cool with mrmaul558's hairbrush habits. He also told him that he was a terrible troll, and could never gain any sort of credit since he was such a dumbfuck.
mrmaul558 was momentarily taken aback; he had never had to face these inner demons before, but it wasn't long before he turned this fuel into fire. His power level soon reached over 9000, and moments later he RAN TOWARDS THE DRAGON AND CUT ITS FUCKING HEAD OFF WITH HIS DICK.
Gutter skulks everywhere were unimpressed, however, and mrmaul558 was confused. mrmaul558 had finally slain the dragon, and was finally granted entrance to the gutter skulk's lair: The Troll Hub. 'Twas a mythical place filled with casual racism and other motley assortments of vile activities; all mrmaul558 wanted was a group of internet friends with whom he could discuss harkius's and buttbrushes and niggers and the like.
mrmaul558 then had an idea; what if he disguised himself, changed himself, to better fit in with the 2/2's for 1B?
He gathered all of the
skulks together for a vote; he was going to change his name, and they were going to decide what it would be changed to.
There were many options put on the table, including xXdarthmaul42069Xx (which was an early favorite, but was quickly outclassed). Most, however, voted Checkbox.
And so it was. mrmaul558 was forevermore known as Checkbox.
"This will do it!", Checkbox thought. "There's no way they won't accept me now! We have an inside joke kind of!"
But alas, Checkbox was still a fish out of water. There was seemingly nothing he could do; no matter how hard he tried, no matter what he did, he just couldn't fit his square peg into the round hole of the gutter.
Life continued this way for sometime, until the evil Mages atop the high tower of cuntery decided that the Gutter Skulks were causing too much trouble.
'Twas a dastardly event; gloves came off, Mages were cast aside (and turned into glorified mechanics with no actual way to do their jobs), and eventually the
Gutter Skulks were forced to move their hive.
But not Checkbox; he had stayed out of the conflict for the most part, and was free to stay in the evil Mage's land of douche-faggery, or follow the flock of Gutter Skulks to their new home.
At first, he thought he'd try to split his time; like a child of divorced parents, he kept in contact with both, before realizing he had only one true love - the Community of Gutter Skulks.
They were his only internet friends, and he had been sort of like a retarded son to them for a while, and he was determined to do anything he could to prove his worth.
This new Community was relatively quiet for a while; sure, the inevitable trolls made their way from the evil Mage's town every now and again, but, to their dismay, they were met with only kindness and welcoming (except for the scummiest of Gutter Skulks, who delighted in calling them morally corrupt and making them stay awake at night with his malicious activities), and eventually the Trolls realized there
was nothing for them here (due to their own dirty grudges), and they left.
But then, the perfect opportunity arose; in the town hall, Checkbox heard rumors of a mythical beast in a far away place called "Page 109". He was determined to show his worth to the Gutter Skulks and slay this beast however he could; to try the hardest anyone ever did.
He went around, gathering as much information as he could about this beast's whereabouts; the sage of the town said "It is only a matter of time before the dragon is upon us."
Checkbox was content biding his time, waiting, watching, Harkiusing (creaming up his own knees and letting children lick it off), hoping this would finally be what penetrates the Gutter's community for him.
Finally came the day - the Dragon had appeared. This Dragon was no ordinary Dragon, for it had consumed the trolliest of the trolls and had gained his power as a result - This was a HarkDragon. Complete with Amazon Reviews, names like Daniel, and arguing for
the sake of arguing, Checkbox was against a true CI Warrior.
His training had not prepared him for this, but he knew how to deal with trolls back home; troll them even harder. Troll like you've never trolled before. Become the Ultimate, Impossible Troll.
Checkbox had been trolling for years, but nothing like this. He meditated for a few minutes, honing his troll gland, ready to focus his years of experience into this one shot; this one opportunity. He could seize everything he ever wanted in this one moment... but he wasn't sure if he would capture it... or let it slip.
Checkbox's palms were sweaty from so much typing, his knees weak from Harkiusing so much. His arms were heavier than most because of his weight; there was even some of Mom's Spaghetti on his sweater leftover from earlier. Checkbox was stoic on the outside, but was quite nervous on the inside.
The Gutter Skulks were chanting from all around him, encouraging him, waiting to see if he would succeed or shitpost yet again.
nFinally, Checkbox hit "Enter", and awaited the fate of the Dragon, and hoped glory would be just around the corner...
