"Ode to Thieves"

Start off as a novice

but seems all you can do

is nothing but miss

those lil pink globs of goo

 

Time to pick a job

one to settle the beef

And maybe to rob?

Alas, you'll be a thief!

 

You Grow so fast

and strengthen your skill,

while having a blast!

Those Porings shall run for the hill

 

You've reached end-game? wow!

with an aura so...yellow

you look back now

what a skillful fellow

"Performer's call"

 

Eternal love is what one need,

Desire or passion, whatever you call,

Wanderer is all you need to heed,

For us Wanderer, love is for all.

 

Round and around, we dance all night,

rhythm and beat are missing none,

Helping our friends with all our might,

For every quests, having them done.

 

When time has come, we will arise,

helping people, those who seek,

Raining arrows from paradise,

protecting those life that are weak.

 

Music is love, for which we lust,

Maestro is nothing but our soul,

strumming the guitar, until the last,

thawing away all those foul.

 

Love is love, is everyone need,

spare some love for us performer,

Wanderers and Maestros everyone should heed,

we are nothing but spectacular.

~A Companion~

 

 

Open the page and I see it

The greatest thing I want to do

Over ten times I try to edit

Making a poem about my boo

 

 

The only thing I ever have

It's worth matter protect and save

Homunculus that I called it Moo

The love it has others can't do

 

 

Help me kill counts don't have to wait

Heal me with love and tenderness

Although it has to lose some weight

Well I don't mind 'cause its cuteness

 

 

Thank you Moo Moo my only friend

Vanill homun who loves the scell

Our friendship will never end

Because I nurture you very well

"That Silly Crown" By Chewy

It’s been many a year and each time I come back

Even though I’ve planted bombs as a terrorist and raided in a world of warcrack

But nothing fulfills me like the joy I get in town

Camping in the streets of Prontera for that silly looking crown

When I find it I squeal with excitement and glee

Until I find out that I am a level too low…ok…3.

So I buy some battle manuals and head over to Eden

I walk over to a party not knowing what class that they’re needing

I make sure to show all my skills to attract them

Arrow showering every Bathory and Freezer for action!

Until the Priest party leader walks over to huff

He said he wants to report me for killing his stuff

So I scurry away quick and come across another party

I accept their invitation and they greet me so cordial and hearty

We grind for hours until I get my 3 levels

I thank the group for the party, their name? “Poring Rebels”

So I head back to the vendor who was selling the silly crown

To the right of the fountain wearing a Paperbag that was brown

Much cheer and rejoice as the headgear is still there!

I buy it, put it on, and then do the same thing next year

tread on the ground, slow -

- as Sól's passage on Sograt,

clad in iron shirt;

fatal blows are but mild wind,

a diamond-thunderbolt.

 

Spoiler

about a monk skill in tanka (短歌、short poem) form (5-7-5-7-7);

 

upper phrase (1-3):

first 2 lines refer to movement speed reduction:

tread on the ground plays on two of the maps en route to St. Capitolina Abbey (monk job change area);

Sól - Norse goddess that personifies the sun; Sograt - desert around Morroc

iron shirt - the most probable inspiration for this skill;

 

lower phrase (4-5):

fatal blow and mild wind - puns on other skills; refers to high damage reduced to gentle blows;

final line reveals the subject of the poem:

the lonely ascetic as an incarnate of indestructibility (diamond), and imposing force (thunderbolt) rendered in game as electric arcs around the character

vajra (金剛) symbolizes both diamond and thunderbolt, and is incorporated in the skill's name in cRO and kRO as 金剛不壞 and simply as 金剛 in jRO

 

probably needless explanation but thought i needed to compensate for the shortness of the entry (which also might seem random otherwise)

The Mechanic Class

The first thing i love about the merchant class

is that it lets me carry so much mass

but one of the things i love about my Mech

is that i can explode in less than a sec

 

another reason why mechanics rule

is because Mados are so cool

can't you see my awesome robotic arm

flame launcher to keep you warm

 

I repair your things that happen to break

name all the weapons you want me to make

water, wind, earth or fire

choose an element of your desire

 

at the end of the day, i have so much fun

because mechs in woe are number one

now watch me front slide and go boom 
By the time you blink you've met your doom

“Ragnarok Abeyance”

There was going to be a war beyond perfect eyes

 

There was will be blood spillage within demise

 

Treacheries for a good price

 

No one will be spared even from the smallest size

 

But who could have stopped this crisis?

 

Did fire answer the call of ice?

 

Yes, fire is the smart element of the intellectualized

 

So here he comes so nice,

 

And the Angel rolled the dice!

 

And behold we got snake eyes!

 

A victory for the ages!

Sitting in Lighthalzen, trying to recruit decent players for leveling

 

Chat up looking for RKs, ABs, Stringer, and Sorc

 

Waiting for 1 hour, I got a sorc, yay

 

Damn, the sorc left for another party

 

Chat up for another 30 minutes

 

Got a sorc, stringer left

 

Damn these impatient players

 

What to do?

Alt everything

Three two one

One four three

I wrote something

Will you read me?

 

Spoiler

Defo didn't starve

 

I always thought it was imagination

Then I study about creation

So I worked hard to study alchemy

And I decide to create a Lamy

 

It's the funniest thing I've ever met

It's like a dog, but more than a pet

It kills things, and give me EXP

It will someday become a bee

 

"Better feed it every 10 minutes, ok?"

I say yes and then I go AFK

Suddenly remember, oh man...

I have to start all over again.

A wait for real

First I knew him through playing a game
Ragnarok Online was it's name,
Back then I was just one of the novice,
But little by little he came to notice.

Days has past, I became a priest.
To full support him just at least.
Then I became his closest friend,
He even helped me to transcend.

He helps me level and we talk a lot,
Then we figured, it's worth a shot.
We got married, officially in game,
In real life that we should aim.

Miles away, he'll stay late at night
For me to log in during twilight.
The time difference is hard to fight,
Long distance love, but its all right.

We won't wait long, our hope beams,
That someday we'll meet like in our dreams.
He'll dress like his Rune-knight, I'll be my AB,
Shining in love's aura, together finally.

The Unsung Hero~!

 

I'm simply the best
Saving strangers from danger
With one arrow storm
For I am a Ranger

No mob is too big
No mob is too small
Mob the whole map
I'll just kill it all

When you're in trouble
I will not refrain
I'm saving your life!
Please don't complain

No need to thank me
Of this I implore
Killstealing you say?
You're now on ignore

Report all you want
You'll be singing my praise
Remember the name
As I'm winging away

^Adrieana^

Adrieana (Arch Bishop) :
Tick, tick, tick, time is drawing near
Old ancient lore is nothing but true and clear
As long forgotten lullaby from father to a daughter
For every thousand death one shall plead mercy for life with precious worth century of prayer.

Belkor (Maestro) :
This is crazy, but i'm ready, hell i used to row a boat from veins to undead city
For king and friends, to what-ever end for my lady
And Adrieana, with such commanding voice yet she is so pretty
Once this all over, I promise to romance her with song full of lovely melody

Courax (Guillotine Cross) :
Did you see that? did you see that?
I'm the greatest of all in whole mid-gard!
Oh my skill strikes the foe like lightning from the sky!
Lex it Adrieana! give me courage Belkor with your battle cry!

Kiel Hyre:
Poison! Adoramus! loud sorcery voices on the air, an odd companion, yet moves with such grace and precision
My strength is fading, oh what a battle we are having, till the darkness claim my vision
Here i am, defeated and on my knee by the daughter of prontera
I bow to no men, but take this card as a token, forever i shall remember a woman warrior named Adrieana!

How can I support when everyone's dead?

The Sura ran off and died up ahead

Our Maestro is lost and didn't bring wings

A Warlock is crying because she doesn't have strings

All of these people, I start to despise 

Then a Wanderer asks "Are there any cute guys?"

To hell with this party, I'm getting irate

Go to South Pront if you're looking to date

She only giggles and gives me a wink

I start to respond, but before I could blink

Boys gather round from every direction

Waiting for her to make her selection

"Here take my hat, it's one of a kind!"

This is getting insane, I'm losing my mind

Then I remember and before they could stray

I end it right there in a bloodier way

"Res us right now!" is what they demand

But I just tele away, broken branch in my hand

[Amykawaii]

We're looking for more to finish our party,

We just need a Sorc to get it all started.

I'm a GX, party me please!

My chat clearly says SORC, can you not read?

Next is a Knight atop his green dragon.

I am so l33t! He wouldn't stop bragging.

I'm getting fed up, I don't want to complain.

People can't read... is this all in vain?

All the wrong jobs... even a Slinger.

Plz let me join! I'll be your gwinger ^_^

About to give up and ready to burst,

Then a Maestro comes by and digs in the dirt.

Party me please, my task is complete!

He throws something down and drops to his knees.

It was a coin, now it's stuck to the ground.

I just rolled my eyes and started to frown.

I did all of this just to show you my worth!

Now do you get it? "Magnetic Earth !!"

I took down my chat, and didn't return.

No one can read.. my lesson was learned.

~Ode to Siege~

It's half past 5 and it's almost time
People pushing and shoving to get in line
We eagerly await our supplies and demands
As well as our leader to await his commands

"Move out!", he shouts as the portals are cast
We all rush in and we rush in fast
For the first hour there is blood and gore
But after awhile there isn't anymore

"We must give chase!" One of our leaders happens to shout
Into the castles we pop in and b-wing out
We search and we search for someone to fight
But it seems we gave our enemy a fright

After a while our search seems for naught
But then we spy an alarming lot
Buffing and waiting outside of a fort
"Hmph, this'll be fun", one of us retorts

Excited to see how this fight will turn about
What the hell? Did they recall out?
Five minutes left till the end of siege
We all secure our castles and then take our leave

For war is but three times a week
Next time we'll receive the battle we seek
Unless but of course they still decide to run
Too bad for them the hunt is half the fun

[Myzery]

This is ending tomorrow! Great submissions so far.

An Ode to Hodes

 

Rumor has it that in the Sograt Desert,

there roams a monster in the dirt.

Some say it looks quite cute,

while others don't give a hoot.

Turn away your fear,

And it may just appear!

 

You say that it's gross?

Have you gotten close?

It's got leathery skin,

and can do a spin.

It's got two little eyes

and loves to surprise!

 

Phreeoni is their master,

making them move faster.

Leave them alone,

and they'll stay out of your zone.

But cause them harm,

and you'll be in a swarm.

 

Hodes are quite unique,

and look so sleek.

Around the dirt they go,

trying not to put on a show.

Watch them wiggle,

you might giggle.
