When I agreed to fill in for my counterpart Elizabeth for the first half of this week, I didn’t expect quite so many podlings would be involved. Indeed, the BlizzCaps email address seems overflowing with them and since no one’s here to tell me otherwise, you get to enjoy a selection of podling filled menaces today.
The first (above) comes from Arugadh of Deep Forest Caravan on Wyrmrest Accord (US-A). “So my hunter was wandering Tanaan and found some interesting mushroom brew that smelled so enticingly…um…AWFUL…that she just had to try it. And then promptly found out why you don’t go drinking strange things you find in swamps. Especially if they’re brewed by orcs. REALLY TRULY ESPECIALLY if it’s brewed by DRUNK orcs. I’m fairly certain this was just a hallucination. Mostly certain. Or else the Alliance is in big trouble.”
The next shot comes from wary submitter Paladave on Garona (US-A). “I can only think of three possible reasons why, last night, it seemed as though all the other people in my Garrison had been cunningly replaced by podlings. First, we got into a bad batch of Shadowmoon mead. Alcohol consumption in alternate universes is always something of a risk. Second, it could have been the omelettes we made with those weird mushrooms I discovered the orcs were hoarding in that cave in Tanaan. Again with consuming foods from alternate universes. Third, maybe Garona is even more of a practical joker than Yrel, and she slipped me something when I wasn’t looking. Even so, from her it could have arguably been worse.
All the other possibilities I can come up with are simply too horrible to contemplate. Old God dreams got nothin’ on these little buggers.”
Submitter Glaras of <of the Queue> on Nesingwary (US-A) has noticed something… different about Harrison Jones today. Did he change his hair? Is it a new jacket? We can’t quite put our finger on it…
Finally, Kellycarter on Earthen Ring (US-H) sends us one final shot of what looks to be a dangerous garrison takeover. “Since the treasure hunter nerf, gold has been hard to get, so my garrison quartermaster hired some ‘cheap labor.’ I think i am just gonna do some more dailies and farming in Tanaan to get my old crew back… Yeahh… *slips out before being noticed*”
Stay safe out there, readers — beware of podlings and suspicious mushroom drinks. Either can be hazardous to your health and/or sanity.
