A Land Far Away

I had written this for my dark-skinned bard, but she died within hours of creation. *sighs* Ah, well. No one evn mistook me for a drow anyway, so I might never have gotten the chance to sing this . . .



My confidence is shaken and I don’t know how
I could be mistaken for a double-crossing, no-good, back stabbing, tone-deaf drow.

Oh, I’ve been labeled wicked it must be understood
But that reviewer also called me fiendishly good.
I remember it well as I sang with such flair.
I made a priest yell and a paladin swear.
So don’t confuse my talent
With traits clearly ungallant.
And please never refer to me as drow!

I much prefer to be renown as gracious and kind
Just playing tunes and playing roles that I’ve been assigned.
I hope that you’ll envision when you next hear a rhyme
A furtive dark-skinned beauty, arousingly sublime.
So don’t think pigment’s sinful
For I have got a skinful.
And please never refer to me as drow!

Oh, I’ll repeat again for all of you right here and now
My confidence is shaken and I don’t know how
I could be mistaken for a double-crossing, no-good, back stabbing, tone-deaf . . .
Okay, tone-deaf is a little strong
Let’s just say . . . they lack eloquent song.
Just please never refer to me as drow!

I am glad she died.

Indeed.

hmm, a drow bard *ponders deeply* perhaps not such a bad idea....

Laddy

pffft.

Not at all Laddy... not a bad idea.

Please. Make a Drow bard. I dare ya.

Hmm, drow bards aint all that bad, i would perhaps even be playing one still if there were no such things as time zones.

Nice song, was that from the character Lyon met? heard you were ganna make this song and sing it. One of the reasons I didn't want to leave WD. Lyon might have broken through to that PC. Only strengthens my point after reading thre song nice.
