{{Quote|That's a great story! Man, I don't know if I can top your amnesia island story, but I'll give it a shot.

One time I was fighting this wizard-priest, right? I was pretty young then and my catch phrase was 'I AM IMMORTAL!' So this priest hears my catch phrase and his eyes grow wide and he says some angry words right as I pound his skull in. Next thing I know. I'm surrounded by rose petals swirling all around, and I go flying into the sky.

This scary voice says 'YOU DARE DEFY DEATH? THEN TASTE WHAT YOUR HUBRIS HAS WROUGHT!' Something like that. And then, no shit, I was sent to some sort of hell dimension where nobody ages.

I was in there for, oh, 3000 years, maybe? Something like that. Met a lot of fun people. But mostly that time is a blur and I can barely remember anything. I don't think my brain was working right in there. Anyway, one day I found this huge bell floating in limbo and I hit it with my hammer, and apparently I destroyed the entire prison dimension and reappeared here!

A lot of the gods are different now and I guess they don't fuck with people as much anymore, or at least not so directly. Which is nice.

Oh yeah: I had to learn a new language, because my old homeland had been wiped off the map. And of course everybody I'd ever known was dead, which was pretty depressing. But besides that it's been mostly the same: hitting shit until it dies, making buckles, getting drunk. Oh, also I don't seem to age anymore, which is pretty great. Okay, your turn for a story!}}

: Hey. You a druid? 'Cuz I'm not!
: ''' I'm not a druid either.'''
: These guys are great. They pretend like they're nature-loving pacifists, but they love hammers and crafting weapons and killing shit. My kind of people!
: ''' Well, they do love nature... '''
: Yeah, yeah. Anyway, what brings you out here? Hunting trolls?
: ''' Just passing through.'''
: Oh, fair enough. I'm just hanging with these guys for a few days while I work on my masterpiece.
: ''' What's your masterpiece?'''
: A belt buckle! I make some of the best buckles you'll ever see. See this one I'm wearing? The lion represents killing shit. And see the eagle? That represents killing shit, too.
: ''' And the bear? '''
: The bear represents killing shit.
: ''' Ah, I should have guessed. '''
: Anyway, my next masterpiece is coming along, but it's missing something. If you can do me a favor and get it, I'll teach you a bit about [[ProjectGorgon:Buckle Artistry]].
: ''' What's the point of Buckle Artistry?'''
: Power, of course! Buckles represent everything good about fighting. Hitting, killing shit, murder, and so on.
: ''' Are these buckles magical?'''
: No, they aren't fuckin' magical. It's psychology! You fill the buckle with symbols that remind you what a bad-ass you are. And it works! Well... it works if you like hammers or clubs.
: ''' So buckles are only good for hammer fighters?'''
: Well, that's the only kind I know how to make. I guess there might be other buckles for other weapons. But whatever. They're not important. Hammers are important!
: ''' Do you sell spare belt buckles?'''
: No, artistic buckles aren't for sellin'! They're a personal thing. The symbols only have meaning to the creator, so only the creator can get anything from wearing them. Sorry, but you've gotta craft your own!
: So year, if you help me get the dye I need, I'll teach you how to make your own buckles.
: ''' Okay. Thanks for the offer.'''
