Flookan and the quest bongo.
On Aardwolf mud, Flookan and Shoka share a manor room which is filled with vegetation, a fountain, and a bongo who sends them on quests. Sometimes the quests he gives them are easy, other times they are difficult.
In our manor (Shoka's and mine)
Stands a jungle green and fine.
Amidst the trees
Enjoying the breeze
Stands a bongo, striped of spine.

I kneel before the chestnut beast.
As he finishes his leafy feast
He flicks his tail
And drawls, "Well?"
I confess I've killed the priest.

"Most excellent!" the bongo shouts,
"I have no patience for such louts."
"Of quest points, have 20
"For I have plenty,
Several million, or thereabouts."

I bow and thank my questing master,
Resolving to finish the next quest faster.
For if I earn
Enough points to burn
I'll increase my speed as spellcaster!
