Questline: The Beard Trials

*The Beard Club had gathered together for their monthly meeting. Morrie had brewed is strongest ale for the occasion. Dundy talked with Malovar about Chickens and the afterlife, as Draven and Bor arm wrestled in the center of the room. Norok sat with Morrie, sharing his latest mind bending riddle when all of a sudden, Morrie had an idea! "What if we gather men from across the world to solve Norok's riddles?" Dundy looked over to his dwarven buddy and raised a valid point. "Why would they want to compete though?" Morrie was stumped. Then, Norok piped up. "We could let them into the Beard Club!" the group seemed open to this. all but Dundy, who was still unsure. "But then what if they're ONLY smart? we don't want scrubs." Draven spoke up in agreement. "True. A scrub is a guy who can't get no love from me." the group sat in thought for a while when Bor suggested "What if it's an arm wrestling competiton? Then they'd all be strong!" Malovar then spoke up, saying "then they might be stupid as shit." Norok jumped up on a table and declared "I KNOW! We shall create an obstacle course testing Strength, Dexterity, Constitution, Intelligence, Wisdom, and Charisma!" the group saw that it was good and said that it was good. And so, Dundy Blew the battle horn and sent out the decree that the Beard Trials were to take place. Now, after Boxer's narrow victory over Roth, Beard Trials 2 is soon to begin! Bearded warriors from across the Multiverse are flocking in to earn a place in the Beard Club's outer ring!!*
