The Poergh Game

Greetings to all!

I come to tell you of a new game I have just invented, it is called the
Poergh game. What this is is a game for those who enjoy combat, and
those who enjoy theft. The object is simple, kill that which is called
Poergh, or rob that which is called Poergh. The rewards are priceless in
themselves, but to those who go above and beyond the call of duty in
making "the Poergh" miserable and bring it to my attention, a special
prize or two can be given. I'm known for my riches and generosity, so
take a chance and perhaps some of it will find its way into your hands
if you do well at the Poergh game.

The Poergh, for those who are curious, is a little creature that becomes
infamous doing silly little things around Sapience, yet boasts the
honorable mention of knowing the books of Laws in ways most mortals
cannot even approach by it's ripe age of 29. The Poergh seems to take a
new test on it's knowledge of Achaean Laws every year, in fact!

So the game is twofold: one aspect of it is to win by hurting the
Poergh, the other is to make sure to do so in a way that the Poergh
cannot throw the book at you.

Be warned, the Poergh is clever, it will try to fool you as it almost
fooled me. I saw it had killed my golem, when I knew not what a Poergh
was, and made me want to retaliate by taking off its head once or twice.
When I saw that the Poergh was one of the near-permanent Infamous, my
heart rejoiced, until I saw that the Poergh was also one of the
near-permanent lawyers of Sapience.

To participate in my own game, and avoid giving any of you a prize, I
would have to go far too much out of my way. So, good luck to any and
all participants who enjoy a little healthy competition.
