Race of Humor


Races and professions are funny, especially halflings if you ask me. In this section I take time to admire the different facets of our Elanthian races and professions and appreciate the humor of each. From Halflings to Giants, Warriors to Wizards, theres probably enough race/profession related jokes to feed a pack of hungry tart mongers.




While I was playing my young halfling character with a friend, I got hungry..not unusual since thats 50% of what halflings are about. Sometimes you feel like a nut...other times you feel like toasted bread, butter and some spice!

You whisper quietly to Fizzywink.

Shared by Granpa Krezgy during his time in EN. Aren't you glad you're not a fogger?


You are overwhelmed by an intense wave of disorientation. An acidic bile taste hangs in the back of your throat, making it difficult to swallow. As you try to recover some semblance of balance, an intense series of spasms from deep in your bowels forces its entire contents to work its way up your throat. It takes every ounce of personal effort to keep yourself from the irresistable urges to vomit!
Roundtime: 48 sec.
You gag.
Equivocate says, "Now thas funny."
A wet gooey puddle soaks into the ground.

(puddle was from someone throwing an egg from the Dhu ship that splatted on the ground, but what timing!)

3: And to the assembled masses did he speak, saying,
4: "These new traps rock.

6: Lo, I am pleased."
7: And the lockpickers and trap disarmers did quiver
8: And the bystanders did grin.

12: "I used to be able to see traps"
13: And "Yikes, what was that?"
