	I dont like killing.
	A craggy old sorcerer in black robes.
	But Ive lost count.
	His bony hands crack tightening on his staff
			-Glemantrious The Glamour Trip

	I knew this Giant called Sir Opus the Boat Slayer.  Drafted to fight in the 
pits of hell. Against his will like so many others.  He is one of the few 
that did well.  In that I mean he survived.  I think thats why I remember 
him.
	Coming out of the pits with some treasure he decides to throw a keg party 
on the docks.  Everyone is invited.  In the process of setting up for the 
event he is approached by the Dwarven secret police.   They want protection 
money.  He refuses.
	That night while the revelry is in full swing an iron ship surfaces in the 
lake.  Dwarves scramble out onto the deck and swivel a cannon around.  The 
crowd starts running and Opus just stands there crestfallen.  They are 
shelling his keg party.
	The dock erupts in fire a couple of times but he just stands there.  The 
crowd has gotten clear of the docks and now they just watch him.  He raises 
his hands and casts a magic fist.  Generally a pitiful spell.
	He puts all the strength he can into it and makes one of those miraculous 
hits.  One of those hits that only happen one in four hundred times.  The 
magic fist punched a hole in the iron boat two feet below the water line and 
sank immediately.  The crowd went wild and the party continued.  By the dawn 
everyone was calling him The Boat Slayer.
