I will receive every entry via email and it is the content of the email that counts as an entry so please do not edit your posts after entering, this is to prevent someone with an earlier post from stealing the idea of someone with a later post and claiming the idea as theirs. If you want to edit the wordings of your card idea, please make a new post quoting your earlier post so that everyone can see that you are simply rewording and not changing your idea.
If you post more than one entry, your first entry will be the valid one.

Name of NPC : Kilroy Stonekin (a.k.a "Kiiiiillroooooy Stooooonekiiiiin!!")
HP : 500
Energy : 15
XP : 999,999,999

When not smashing his bronze knuckles against someone's skull he thoroughly enjoys shouting his own name and charging with teams straight into huge mobs.
Itallic writing: "You're insane, Kilroy. I love it." <-- what he says when you accept boxing quest.
hope thats a decent start ^^

I do wish more of the submissions had made the cut, but I understood going in that only a few would win-out over the others. Oh well, maybe in the next "expansion" we will see a few of these guys (loved Togo's "Appear Suicidal" ability).
Mostly, I just wanted to post to thank Hoodie for the awesome avatar I have here, as well as the advice. Same goes to you, Arghore (that was you in my comic thread, right?). With all of this input, you can expect The Life and Times of Etaoin Shrdlu to get better and better.
I AM INSPIRED!
