It's dark, A gun. Flash bang. A body flwumps to the floor unceremoniously. Out from the shadows a shadowy figure emerges. His dark and gloomy expression matches the cold steel of his .45 revolver. His eyes, like dogs eyes.

Suddenly, Thorvald's eyes snapped open from his meditation and he called his companions
Due to the specificity of the comments, neither will be used.

"She's been sleeping for a few hours," the gruff voice says, "She should be waking up any time now."
"Make sure she knows what's going on," a smooth and slimy voice replies, "I want her to be scared out of her mind when they find her."
"Right."
"Hello?" the girl says, "Who's there?"
The grimy blindfold is ripped off of her face. Two men face her. One man is tall and brawny, with a blank stare on his face. He wears She concludes that his intelligence must be rather low. The other is a thin, oily man. He wears a long black trenchcoat and his long black hair is greasy and reflects the dull glow of the flickering lights. The spark of severity that glints in his eye causes her to quiver in fear.
"Now then, little girl, do you know who I am?" the oily one asks.
"You're the scary man in my dreams."
His cold laugh lends his already evil countenance a new level of repugnance.
"No. I'm much, much worse."
"Where am I?"
"All in good time, Sam. You see, your father has something of mine and I want it back. Until he returns it I will see to it that your every waking hour is filled with terror and pain."
"Please..."
"I'm not finished," he shouts as his hand collides with her cheek, "Now, you are to repeat after me; I am a worthless piece of slime and I will do everything you say."
"You are a worthless piece of slime and you will do everything I say."
She suddenly sees stars as the pain explodes in her temple. She loses her vision for a few seconds.
"I'm sorry. Did that hurt? I really should learn to control my temper."
"Please..."
"Say it."
"I am a worthless piece of slime and I will do everything you say."
"Good. Now drink this."
The large one hands her a bowl. Inside is a violet, viscous liquid. The sweet smell drifts up to her nostrils as her stomach heaves once more. She lifts the bowl slowly to her lips and takes a sip.
Suddenly the room is transformed. The men are replaced with ogres and the brick walls are now stone. The flourescent overhead lighting is a single torch flickering on the wall. Her own shriek is the last thing she hears before she passes out.

Episode 9: A Brief Introduction
As we continue...
The small girl sits shivering on the floor, clad in rags. The damp air seems to be sucking the warmth from her bones. The smell of dirt and sweat reaches out to her nostrils from the blindfold on her face and she feels her stomach heave. Her wrists burn from the rope tied around her wrists. She lays on the ground and begins to cry.
She hears footsteps approaching.
"Hello? Is anyone there?"
"Here," the voice is gruff and unpleasant, "drink this if you know what's good for you."
She feels a bowl at her lips and sips. The thick, overly sweet liquid pours down her dry throat and makes its way to her stomach, causing it to heave once more and then grow silent. Her body slowly goes numb and she slips back into blackness, the footsteps fading as her captor returns to his post.

Episode 8: Taking Out the Trash
Syonik said...
Thorvald uses his magical goats, Tanngrisnir and Tanngnost to ride through the heavens to the North Pole, where he begins a siege on the workshop.
As we continue...
'Twas the night before Christmas and all through the cave
Not a creature was stirring not even a knave.
The Grinch was plotting by the chimney with care
For the devious Saint Nick soon would be there.
Rainbow Valkyrie was nestled all snug in her bed
While visions of birdseed danced in her head.
Thor in his kerchief and Neil in his cap
Were just laying down for their pre-plot nap.
When suddenly the Grinch made such a clatter
That Thor and Neil sprung up to see what was the matter.
He said, "Go to the window," they flew like a flash
Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash.
The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow
Gave the lustre of mid-day to objects below.
When, what to their wondering eyes should appear
But a miniature sleigh and eight tiny reindeer.
With a little old driver so lively and quick
They knew in a moment it must be St. Nick.
More rapid than eagles his coursers they came
And he whistled and shouted and called them by name;
"Now, Dasher! Now, Dancer! Now, Prancer and Vixen!
On, Comet! On Cupid! On, Donder and Blitzen!
To the top of the porch! To the top of the wall!
Now dash away! Dash away! Dash away all!"
"All right," says the Grinch. "It's time to go."
"Shall we trudge right out," says Thor, "Into the snow?"
"It's not that cold, it's only twenty below"
"But oh, would you listen to that wind blow!"
"Will you two quit rhyming? You're giving me a headache!" Neil shouts.
"How are we going to get to the North Pole?" asks Thor.
"Well actually," says the Grinch, "He doesn't actually live at the North Pole. The North Pole is barren and lifeless. There's nothing there but icebergs, water, a few polar bears, and some half-eaten seal corpses. No, he actually lives in Lapland, Finland."
"Well how are we going to get there?"
"Well I have these two goats..."
"Goats? How are you going to use goats to get there?" Neil interjects.
"They're magical goats. They can fly. But I only have two of them so one of us has to walk."
"Not it." Thor and Neil chime in.
"Poop babies." the Grinch says as he realizes he will have to resort to alternative transportation.
"Well let's get to it," says Thor.
Thor mounts Tanngrisnir as Neil mounts Tanngnost. They fly over the United States and then over the Atlantic Ocean. As they begin their descent down to Finland Neil decides that the status of his bladder was approaching an emergency. He let his fly down and let fly with his urine (which ended up hitting a kindly old German on vacation).
Neil's cell phone begins ringing.
"Hello?"
"Yes. This is the Grinch speaking. I was wondering what was taking you two so long."
"We're just landing in the village now. How did you beat us?"
"I took the teleporter of course. It causes one to be sick for a while but you get over it."
"Why didn't we all take it?"
"It's expensive. Plus the writer wanted to have an excuse to throw in Thor's magical goats."
"Ah. I see."
"Meet me at the pub."
"Which one? There's millions."
"The one right in front of you, silly."
They meet up and head to the nearby toy shop. There they find an army of elves waiting for them.
"This is not going to be pretty." Neil says.
"Let's get to it." Thor says.
They pull out their industrial strength cue ball launchers and fire a volley into the crowd. Eight fall. The elves fire various children's weaponry at them. Thor, Neil, and the Grinch do their best to dodge Nerf® darts, ping pong balls, fake arrows, and marbles. They then fire back. And so it goes until both sides run out of ammunition.
"Charge!" shouts Thor.
They go in, fists blazing (this is due to the flaming gloves they are wearing). They punch and kick left and right, subduing countless enemies. They finally reach the entrance, jump inside, and slam the door on the throng of midgets.
Once inside they trash the place and steal all the loot.
"This is the last Christmas he will plague mankind with his vile scheme of evil avarice," Thor declares.
They thank the Grinch for his help as he teleports back to Mount Rainier. They then fly back to their base.
"Wow!" Neil shouts, "Look at all the presents under the tree!"
"I'm glad you like it," Kelsey says.
In the spirit of the moment Thor is heard to say, "Merry Christmas to all!"
"And to all a good night!" says the creepy old man in red.

Episode 7: The Slightly Naughty Saint Nick
Liom "Ders" Fjordson said...
Thor slaughters seventeen thousand slithering snakes by firing lightning bolts from his arse, while saying various triumphant catch phrases like; "Careful there's no antidote for that strain of venom!" or "I eat evil.. for breakfast!" Whereas Neil plays the sympathy card (a single golden tear fell from Neil's face, and when it hit the ground it made a sound that was heard across the land. And those who heard the noise said, "A man has been wronged today".) Subsequently they resort to giant robot fighting means.
Neil The Real Deal said...
three words.. tunnel of love.
Or something similar.
Syonik said...
meanwhile, Keldon should investigate and try to get to the source of the Neil-ists
For the purpose of writing a Christmas episode, some comments will not be used. We apologize for the inconvenience.
As we continue...
Thorvald thinks to himself, "There must be some way that I can prove that I am better than Neil and show Kelsey how devoted I am to her."
Neil thinks a similar thought, but with less words.
Thor looks around him. As he surveys the carnival he wonders what sort of challenges he could overcome whilst in her presence.
"Snake pit," a carney yells, "come see the ferocious and quite deadly snakes battle each other. What could be more ferocious and deadly? Nothing, that's what!"
"Say, Kelsey," he addresses her, "let's go and view that marvelous attraction."
They walk into the dark and ominous looking tent. Inside, the stench of reptilian filth wafts up to their nostrils and causes them to gag. Thor sees asps and adders, vipers and boas. Those that can send a human into eternal sleep with a single bite and those that can wrap around a man and strangle from him his last breath.
Suddenly a man dressed in red with white accents (including his conical hat with a small ballish puff on the end) leaps in from outside the tent, shoves Kelsey into the snake pit, and jumps back out.
Thor leaps in after Kelsey. He crouches and looks around. The snakes stare him down as they prepare to strike. Thor waits for their first move.
A lone viper leaps at him, aiming his fangs for Thor's neck. Thor ducks the attack and watches as the snake smashes violently into the wall. One snake is incapacitated, forty-nine remain.
"There's no antidote for that poison!" Thor shouts.
The remaining snakes all leap at him at once. Thor lets three adders crash into each other while stomping on a coral snake and swatting a boa into the wall. Over the next five minutes Thor performs a series of kicks, jabs, and punches (with a liberal serving of grunts on the side). He defeats all of the snakes and rescues the fair Kelsey from peril.
Neil finds them as the exit the tent. He notices their disheveled state and becomes concerned.
"What happened?"
"A man in red with a funny conical hat pushed Kelsey into the snake pit."
"Let's see, a man in red with a funny conical hat."
Neil thinks for a while
"That must be Santa Clause!"
"He must be hunted down and defeated!" Thor cries.
"I only know of one man who can help us in our struggle," Neil says. "The Grinch."
And so our heroes travel to the great state of Washington. The Grinch lives here, at the peak of Mount Rainier, the highest peak in the Cascade Mountain Range. They begin their trek up the perilous mountain. Thor takes the lead, Kelsey follows behind him, and Neil follows her (they left Keldon at home). And on Thor's shoulder rides his trusty pet, Rainbow Valkyrie. After a arduous and perilous trek they finally reach the top. They walk to the door of the Grinch's lair and knock on the door.
"Who is it?" a harsh voice is heard to ask.
"Valiant questsmen who wish to take down the Clause," Thor answers.
"Well then, come in and have some hot cocoa while I help you formulate a plan."
They enter and take a brief glance at their new surroundings.
"What a lot of trash!" Neil exclaims.
"You may wait outside," the Grinch retorts.
"Poop babies," Neil curses.
After much deliberation they decide that they must wait until Christmas Eve, Santa's busiest night, and then attack him with an array of ancient weaponry.

Episode 6: Trogdor and the Love Delta
thorvald the Great and Mighty said...
I think that Thor should ravage and destroy a McDonalds... I might cry a tear of happiness if this happens. Also, the myna should be named something really feminine, like "rainbow dust". Oh and the origin of 'Neil-ism' can only be found in the legendary piñata, made from the carcass of the ancient beast known as Trogdor... that should be enough.
Robert van Wye said...
AWESOME!!!
John Medfords said...
They should take Thor to a circus and introduce him to cotton candy. The blue kind.
Syonik said...
The myna should be named "valkyrie" as i said before it was introduced.
As we continue…
As they leave Frodo’s house, Thor can’t help but think that there was something slightly odd about that Neilist. So they decide to investigate further into the origin of Neilism. But first, some food.
“Where do you want to eat?” Keldon asks Neil.
“I don’t know, where do you want to eat?”
“I don’t know, where do…hey! I asked you first!”
“Well, there’s always McDonalds.”
As they approach the building, Thor espies the golden arches.
“This is a symbol of evil! This building and all associated with it must be a corporation that embodies all the evils of mankind!”
So he whips out his hammer, gives the wall a mighty smack, and waits for it to crumble. It doesn’t. He hits it one more time. Nothing.
“Kamehameha!” he yells and thwacks it again with all his force.
The building suddenly explodes outward with a mighty boom.
“Now what do we eat?” asks Keldon.
“How about T-Bell?” Neil responds.
“Sure.”
So they head over to the nearest Taco Bell. It happens to be closed for renovations, however, so they decide to instead take a road trip down to Mexico.
“Are we there yet?” Thor asks.
“No.” Keldon answers.
“How about now?”
“No! Don’t ask me again. We’ll get there when we get there!”
“Keldy, Thor’s poking me!” Neil whines.
“He called my myna Rainbow Valkyrie!”
“It has a colorful sheen!”
“But that’s a girly name!”
“How do you know it’s not a girl?”
“Well I just don’t like that name.”
“I like the name.” Kelsey interjects.
“You stay out of it!”
“Well I was just giving my opinion.”
“QUIET!!!” Keldon yells. “Now then, everyone will be completely silent until we finally get to the…oh look, there’s the border!”
They pass across the border and immediately find a nice little restaurant. They head inside and order some food. After they’ve all eaten their fill of burritos and guacamole they head back outside. Neil is immediately attacked by fifteen people wearing clothes bearing anti-Neil sentiment.
“It’s just a name, I had nothing to do with it! It’s out of my control! Why are you attacking me?”
They continue to beat him. After a few minutes slowly pass by, Thor decides to help Neil. With one mighty swing of his hammer he sends the Neilists flying through the air until they eventually set down (softly in a tree) in Paraguay.
“Why do people keep attacking me just because my name is Neil?”
“Psssst,” whispers a shady looking character from a little alleyway between the rundown buildings.
They walk over and ask him what he wants.
“I know the origin of this ‘Neilism.’”
“What is it?”
“When my great-grandfather Pepe de la Boca Grande defeated the great monster Trogdor he split open the stomach and found something inside. It, when studied closely, was the scratching of his last victim. It said ‘Lien.’ Since lien is Neil backwards, many people decided that Neil must be the name of the Evil One. So they have been finding and killing all the Neils that they can.”
“But that’s completely absurd!” Kelsey says.
“Meh. We do what we can for entertainment these days,” the smallish man retorts. “The other day we took Trogdor’s carcass and made a giant piñata out of it.”
“That’s disgusting!” Kelsey exclaims.
“We’d better get out of here before more people attack me,” Neil interrupts.
“Well our weapons won’t be ready for three more days so let’s go do something fun.” Keldon says.
“Have you ever been to a circus?” Kelsey inquires of Thor.
“What is that?”
“Let’s go to a circus!” Kelsey exclaims.
Back in the good old U.S. of A. they find a wonderful little circus. They see the rides outside the circus tent and decide to go on a couple.
“Who wants to go on the ferris wheel with me?” Kelsey asks.
Thor and Neil immediately start jumping up and down and shouting, “Me me me me me!”
“Well, I guess you’ll both have to take turns.”
“Dibs on firsties!” Neil says.
“Shoot.”
“Well, while they’re up there how about I introduce you to cotton candy?” asks Keldon.
“Fine.”
A few minutes later.
“What is this amazing concoction? It’s better than fried squirrel! And trust me, that’s good. Get me more.”
“Please.”
“What’s that?”
“We say please.”
“Oh. Get me more…please?”
“That’s better.”
“Your turn!” Kelsey says as she seemingly appears out of nowhere.
“Whoopie! I’ll be back for that cotton candy, Keldon. But it may be a while…”
So we come to the end of the episode. We now see that Thor and Neil must contend for Kelsey’s love. How should they prove their worth and devotion? As always, leave suggestions in the form of comments (which can be found just above the beginning of the episode. Remember, no outcomes, only actions). You give an action, I give an outcome. Updates will usually be on Saturdays.

“That’s disgusting!” Kelsey exclaims.
“We’d better get out of here before more people attack me,” Neil interrupts.
“Well our weapons won’t be ready for three more days so let’s go do something fun.” Keldon says.
“Have you ever been to a circus?” Kelsey inquires of Thor.
“What is that?”
“Let’s go to a circus!” Kelsey exclaims.
Back in the good old U.S. of A. they find a wonderful little circus. They see the rides outside the circus tent and decide to go on a couple.
“Who wants to go on the ferris wheel with me?” Kelsey asks.
Thor and Neil immediately start jumping up and down and shouting, “Me me me me me!”
“Well, I guess you’ll both have to take turns.”
“Dibs on firsties!” Neil says.
“Shoot.”
“Well, while they’re up there how about I introduce you to cotton candy?” asks Keldon.
“Fine.”
A few minutes later.
“What is this amazing concoction? It’s better than fried squirrel! And trust me, that’s good. Get me more.”
“Please.”
“What’s that?”
“We say please.”
“Oh. Get me more…please?”
“That’s better.”
“Your turn!” Kelsey says as she seemingly appears out of nowhere.
“Whoopie! I’ll be back for that cotton candy, Keldon. But it may be a while…”
So we come to the end of the episode. We now see that Thor and Neil must contend for Kelsey’s love. How should they prove their worth and devotion?

Episode 5: The Emergence of Neil-ism

They untie him as he reveals who did this dastardly deed to him.

thor smashes the pole with one mighty swing of his hammer to the top of the pole, then declares victory over the pole before throwing the little man onto the anvil and forcing information out of him.

btw, i think that people outside the story/scene should give general directions and anyone who is actually a character should have primary control over their character. Just thought that might be cool.
(People with characters in the story now have greater control over their character)
As we continue...
Thor grasps his mighty hammer, swings it up out of his inside pocket in a huge strong arc and brings it down hard on top of the pole. The pole cracks in half and the man jumps free.
"Woohoo!" Thor yells, "I am victorious. You flimsy poles are no match for a mighty warrior!"
"What do you have against Polish people?" asks the man who was formerly tied up.
"What?" Thor yells as he hurls the man onto the anvil and pushes his hammer handle against his throat.
"Never mind. My name is Will and I am a maker of fine weaponry."
"Who tied you up?"
"A man in black who goes by the name of...Frodo!"
"Oh. Is that all?"
"Yep. How may I aid you? Are you perhaps in need of some questing itemry?"
"Umm...yes. What do you have on hand?"
"Well right now I have a sale on traditional Norse swords, shields, and armor."
Thor thought about it for a while.
"How much money do you have?" he asks Keldon.
"Due to my experiments in alchemy I can, through a large amount of hard work, create gold! So don't worry about it."
Thor removes Will from the anvil and gives him a moment to catch his breath.
"Umm...we'll take a full suit of armor, three swords, and a shield and a half."
"Why do you want a half shield?" asks Neil.
"I SAID A HALF SHIELD!"
"Okay, okay, I just wanted to know."
"That'll cost 12,872 dollars. They'll be ready on Tuesday." Will interjects.
Suddenly a bearded man with a sledgehammer jumped through the doorway.
"Death to all Neils!" he shouts.
As Neil falls to the ground, being beaten over and over, Thor kicks the man in the sweet spot and he crumples into a fetal position. They tie him up and leave him outside the house as they are exiting.
So we come to the end of the episode. They have some downtime to catch Thor up on modern culture. Where should they go? What should they name the myna? Does Neil try to find out the origin of this Neil-ism? As always, leave suggestions in the form of comments (which can be found just above the beginning of the episode.

Episode 4: How Thor Met Frodo or Neil Plays Pokémon
JIMMY MIC JIMMER said...
FRODO'S HOUSE he knows everything. He could give them guitar hero guitars to kill the bad guys
Ben Amundson said...
They could go to Burger King and get some crowns. Or ask the king to pass a legislation.
Syonik said...
i'm sorry, but those are pretty useless comments. thor should inquire about where he may find raiments suitable for a nordic warrior. he should also aquire some sort of flying animal sidekick named valkyrie.
Keldy said...
I agree with Jimmy McJimmster -
Frodo knows all, so they should seek his counsel. Frodo should inform them about something evil that wants to destroy them and everyone, but send them on some journey quest.
But that's just me.

thanks for putting me in it!!!

Thor, the no longer Thorvald, sees, valuable informations, attached to a wild goshawk in the sky. Thor jumps and bites through leather strap coated with curry. Thor gets burned, Ash has ran out of healing potion. Thor receives valuable informations for defeating wild goshawk.
WILD GOSHAHK: AWW MAN!
Thor feints on the way to poke center.

I believe that I speak for Robert Van Wye when I take this opportunity to remind everyone that the only valid commands are commands to characters that are currently controlled by the spectators. Characters not yet introduced are not able to be controlled. Also, outcomes are decided by the author.

Thanks, Anonymous. What a funny name!
As we continue...
"So," Neil asks Kelsey as he slyly slides beside her, "do you know where we could get some information and weaponry to aid us in our quest?"
"Well I do know this guy who's into this kind of thing."
"Oh really?" as Neil slides even closer.
"Yep."
"Take us to him," Thor interjects.
"We say please in this century," says Keldon.
"Take us to please."
"No no, it comes before take or after him."
"Take us to him it."
"Never mind."
As they leave the building, Thor sees a funny rectangular object lying on the shelf.
"What is this?"
"Oh that," says Neil, "That's my Gameboy Color."
They grab it and leave.
First they decide to get some provisions. They head on over to Burger King and grab a few Whoppers. Thor insists on getting a crown.
Next they head on over to Kelsey's friend's house. They are greeted at the door by a mysterious figure in black leggings, a black turtle neck shirt, and a long black overcoat.
"I've been expecting you," says the figure without opening his mouth, "Please come in."
"See, that's how you use please!"
"I do not understand."
"Forget it."
As they enter, they see curious pictures cluttering the wall. There are many depictions of an orange mushroom happily jumping about. The other pictures have no correlation to each other.
"Woohoo!" shouts Neil, "I caught a Rattatta!"
"That's the easiest thing in the world," says Keldon, "anyone can catch a Rattatta."
"I named it Thor."
Suddenly a tiny myna flies in the room.
"This is for you," says the mysterious figure.
"For who?" asks Thor.
"You"
Another one flies in.
"Two?"
"No."
"Now then," begins the man, "my name is Frodo. I am a quest master. I have a plethora of quests and quest related knowledge. How may I help you?"
"Well..."
"That was merely a formality. I know what you seek. I know all. First, you need to go see Will of Billings to find proper raiment for a nordic questsman. You can find him in my basement. Don't forget to untie him. Next you will need to follow the myna to the cave of all secrets."
"Cave of all secrets," the myna shouts.
"Yes, the cave of all secrets."
"Cave of all secrets."
"THEY GET THE POINT ABOUT THE CAVE OF ALL SECRETS!"
"Cave of all secrets. Stupid bird."
"Stupid bird."
"Aggh," says Neil, "Thor feinted on the way to the poké center!"
In the basement they find a little man tied to a pole. Around him lie various ores, leathers, woods, and tools of the smithing trade.
"UNTIE ME PLEASE!!!"
Well on their way to finally beginning the quest, the find themselves in a pretty open situation. What should they do? As always, leave suggestions in the form of comments (which can be found just above the beginning of the episode. Remember, no outcomes, only actions). You give an action, I give an outcome.
