Challenge 2

 

set to "Don't Stop Believing" (Journey)

Verse 1:
In the forest green, where the trees stand tall,
A furbolg came to a country ball,
With a heart full of wonder, and a spirit so free,
He sought adventure, but what he found was destiny.

Chorus:
Don't stop believin', that love can find a way,
Even for a furbolg and a gnome at a country dance today,
Hold on to that feeling, of joy and serenity,
As our two unlikely lovers spin, to a melody.

Verse 2:
Across the crowded room, their eyes did meet,
A furbolg and a gnome, an unlikely feat,
With a smile and a bow, he asked her to dance,
And in that moment, fate took its chance.

Chorus:
Don't stop believin', that love can find a way,
Even for a furbolg and a gnome at a country dance today,
Hold on to that feeling, of joy and serenity,
As our two unlikely lovers spin, to a melody.

Bridge:
Through the night, they twirled and they spun,
Lost in each other, until the rising sun,
The furbolg knew that he had found,
A love so pure, it would never let him down.

Chorus:
Don't stop believin', that love can find a way,
Even for a furbolg and a gnome at a country dance today,
Hold on to that feeling, of joy and serenity,
As our two unlikely lovers spin, to a melody.

Outro:
In the forest green, where the trees stand tall,
A furbolg and a gnome, found love at a country ball,
Their love will grow, through the ages of time,
And they'll dance together, till the end of their prime.

May 3 - COMPLETED
Challenge 1
Challenge 2

 

Here's the a duet set to the tune of "Levitate" with a theme of contested challenge:

MP3 of the first three verses. The Orc is a Baritone and the Gnome is an Alto.
Enjoy!

Verse 1 (Orc):
I've been alone for so long
Challenging all that comes along
But then I saw you, and I knew
A worthy opponent has come into view

Verse 2 (Gnome):
I've danced my way through life with ease
No one to challenge or to compete
But then I saw you, and I knew
A contest awaits, and I'm ready to pursue

Chorus (Together):
We're strangers in a challenge
Different worlds, but the same talent
With every step, with every move
We'll give it all, and try to prove

Verse 3 (Orc):
I've fought the toughest beasts around
But with you, a real challenge I've found
Your moves are quick, your steps so light
I'm inspired to fight with all my might

Verse 4 (Gnome):
I've danced before the highest court
But with you, a new level I've sought
Your power and strength, I can't deny
I'm eager to match it, and to try

Chorus (Together):
We're strangers in a challenge
Different worlds, but the same talent
With every step, with every move
We'll give it all, and try to prove

Bridge (Together):
We come from different places
With different skills and graces
But we share a love for the contest
And in each other's eyes, we'll find our best

Chorus (Together):
We're strangers in a challenge
Different worlds, but the same talent
With every step, with every move
We'll give it all, and try to prove

Outro (Together):
We'll push each other to new heights
With every move, with every fight
We may be strangers, but we're in this together
In the contest of life, we'll conquer any weather.

Challenge 3

 

The barbarian pounds on the door of the keep.
"Knock, knock!"
A guard on the other side peeks through the peephole.
"Who's there?" the guard asks suspiciously.
"Gruumsh!" roars the barbarian.
"Gruumsh who?" the guard responds, confused.
"Gruumsh smash!" the barbarian yells as he kicks down the door and charges into battle.

And because you can't tell a barbarian they can only tell one knock, knock joke,

The barbarian thunders up to the castle gate.
"Knock, knock!"
A guard leans out from the wall above.
"Who's there?" he asks, warily.
"Kord!" the barbarian shouts.
"Kord who?" the guard replies.
"Kord of destruction!" the barbarian bellows, as he charges forward and smashes the gate with his greataxe.

(Barbarians are not great at puns and jokes but are good at smashing and raging!

May 4 - COMPLETED
Challenge 1

 

Lawful Good: Mustard - A classic, dependable condiment that has stood the test of time. Mustard is a staple in many dishes and can add a zing of flavor without overpowering the meal.

Neutral Good: Ketchup - Another classic condiment, ketchup is a reliable addition to many meals, from hot dogs to fries. It's not too spicy, not too sweet, and has a universal appeal.

Chaotic Good: Sriracha - A spicy, daring condiment that adds a kick of heat to any dish. Sriracha has a cult following and is loved by those who crave bold flavors.

Lawful Neutral: Salt - While not exactly a condiment, salt is a staple in any kitchen and can enhance the flavor of almost any dish. It's dependable, consistent, and necessary for many recipes.

True Neutral: Mayonnaise - A divisive condiment that some people love and others hate, mayonnaise is a neutral presence that can be added to sandwiches, burgers, and more to add a creamy texture.

Chaotic Neutral: Hot Sauce - With an endless variety of flavors and heat levels, hot sauce is a wild card condiment that can completely change the taste of a meal. It can be mild or insanely spicy, and adds excitement to any dish.

Lawful Evil: Ranch Dressing - A creamy, tangy condiment that is loved by many, but often used in excess. It's a popular choice for salads, wings, and more, but can be overpowering if not used in moderation.

Neutral Evil: BBQ Sauce - A sweet and smoky condiment that can add a lot of flavor to meats and sandwiches, but can also be overly sugary and calorie-heavy. It's a guilty pleasure that is often enjoyed in moderation.

Chaotic Evil: Wasabi - A spicy, pungent condiment that can make your eyes water and your nose tingle. It's a daring choice that should be used with caution, as it can quickly overpower a dish and leave you gasping for air.

Challenge 2

 

Hippity-Hoppity
Enchantment cantrip

Casting Time: 1 action
Range: Self
Components: V, S
Duration: 1 minute

You imbue yourself with a temporary boost of speed and agility, allowing you to move with a nimbleness that belies your normal abilities. For the duration of the spell, your movement speed is increased by 10 feet and you gain advantage on all Dexterity (Acrobatics) checks. In addition, you can use your movement to move through difficult terrain as if it were normal terrain.

At Higher Levels: When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 2nd level or higher, the duration of the spell increases by 1 minute for each slot level above 1st.

Example of Use:

The party is traversing a treacherous mountain pass when suddenly they are ambushed by a group of goblins. One of the goblins charges at the party's halfling rogue, who panics and casts Hippity-Hoppity. Suddenly, the halfling's movements become incredibly nimble and agile as he leaps and bounds across the rocky terrain. The goblin is caught off guard by the halfling's sudden speed and ends up stumbling over a loose rock, giving the party an opportunity to strike.

As the battle rages on, the rest of the party watches in amusement as the halfling continues to bounce around like a hyperactive bunny, dodging attacks and weaving in and out of danger. Eventually, the goblins are defeated, and the party congratulates the halfling on his impressive acrobatics.

As the spell wears off, the halfling collapses in exhaustion, panting and sweating profusely. The party's bard quips, "Looks like someone's been eating their carrots!" The halfling rolls his eyes, but can't help but smile at the joke.

Challenge 3: Dragon Egg Drop

[PlaidPeregrine]

Memraids   An Adventuring young antlered Pup Moon Druid searching for an ornament that is really a fallen star and must return it to the sky!   ORC from New York! Yes, the Memraids are very popular amongst the Orcs!     There is always one Memraid riding and another sometimes teeters on the handlebars while the other pair or trio swim along in the lake that you can see in the background. Sometimes they sing each other into the water, which is rude, but fun! That is the way of Memraids when they want to share such a wondrous vehicle.   These 4 Memraids represent each of us! The one with the most cleavage is Goonie. The one with the pink hair is bothers. The teal one, minus a crown with tentacle hair...totally me (PlaidPeregrine) and the tired blue one levitating a card is UngainlyFool.   A throne fit for Memraids and bunnies! And for evil cats that chew on book corners.[/secret]   The Memraids, being an international team has hopefully reflected this magnificently in this chart. We do believe, before we start an argument of fisticuffs, that Ketchup is Chaotic Neutral, being truly free to be placed on everything from a burger or hotdog to spaghetti or steak. Being placed on the latter also is an example of true selfishness, causing those to witness such atrocities to wince and/or cry. If you have any questions to how we arrived at these choices, please ask! The Memraids are a thoughtful and quirky group. On that note, the Gentleman's Relish can be eaten by a Gentlewoman, a Gentleperson, or one that is rough around the edges, or even a cat. The misogynist attitude and main ingredient reflects its evilness! Enjoy!   A Description of the Cantrip Hippity-Hoppity: "Hippity-Hoppity, I grant us the wisdom of Herpetology!" The Druid sung the words of the Cantrip with enormous glee as the party stood almost ankle-deep in the squishy still water. A dried out crooked frog's leg was waved around as the Gnome hipped and hopped about, almost getting stuck in a slog of mud and a strangle of fallen moss. Slowly, one by one, a chorus of amphibians and reptiles rose in peeps, croaks and a single deep grunt from a floating gray log in the cloudy water. "Tree frogs, crocodilly-doos, snakes and bumble-toads, hear me! From which direction is the water stale with the undead, poisoned with death, and where the shadows cling to the trees under the bright sun?" The Gnome felt their legs twitch, then pull upwards one by one as the menagerie called out, "Here. HERE! There! Over here!" As a Druid possessed, the Gnome was guided in forced hops by the frogs that commanded such an environment towards the cursed necromantic area of the swamp for the next hour, unable to stop from hopping - the price that had to be paid for such magic. The party members followed, ready to defend against any foul beast that took advantage of the sloshing and splashing of the herptile-guided Druid.[/secret]   The Dragon Egg Drop
