Ode to a Grasshopper · Tue Feb 02, 2010 9:06 am

*drum roll*

It's not like there aren't enough expendable bards/wizards in BG1 that you can't make do with a cameo.
"Okay Garrick, we've all killed the demon, now bugger off and hit on some paladin or something."

Ode or Odie was decided by popular consensus on the Speak Your Mind forums back in 2001 or so, when we had a more active board community. The full version is mainly taken from the Absolutely Live version of "The End" by the Doors, as well as an oblique reference to a few other games and/or persons.
Now where's that slobbering Odie GIF...

Funny you should mention that because, like I said, Imoen was 'ghasted' in the battle and she is irreversibly dead. So to maintain my 4 person party I went to grab dynaheir. Unfortunately Minsc has to come along to make it 5.

So when I get back to S'Vok, I will charge Minsc kamikaze style. (please don't kill me Edar!) I will then have Dynaheir cast some spells and then charge to her to her death as well.

Ajantis, myself and Kivan will mop up and split the XP 3 ways instead of 5. I'm such a bastard sometimes.

Well... if I challenge you to a duel with sharps, would you come to Denmark to fight it? I sure cannot afford going anywhere as an unemployed Ma in History with no prospect of a job...

Odie, ever read Eddings' mediocre-at-best Tamuli series?

Ages ago, yeah. It was pretty unmemorable...

There is an "Ode to Blue" in that...

Ode to a grasshopper...
I think I'll open a little shop,
A little place where they sell things
And I think I'll call it "Grasshopper"...

I have a big green grasshopper out there
Have you seen my grasshopper, mama?
Looking real good...
(Oh, I blew it, it's a moth)
That's alright, he ain't got long to go, so we'll forgive him.
