The Adventures of Cecil T Puddingtonsworthshire XIX, Esq.

Chapter 1: Cecil Turns the Goblin Tide (5/17/22)

Upon hearing of the dastardly deeds of a nearby Goblin Horde that was terrorizing the local countryside, the illustrious Cecil T Puddingtonsworthshire (of House Puddingtonsworthshire) recruited a band of misfits and ne'er-do-wells to confront the menace under his command. Under Cecil’s brave and inspiring leadership, a two pronged assault was launched against the cowardly and slow-witted goblins, who were easily outmatched by the stunning display of leadership and marksmanship of everyone’s favorite Gnome. Under his auspicious guidance, none of the rank and file of Cecil’s platoon suffered any serious injuries, except when they failed to heed the orders of their munificent leader.

This battle action, which will be studied by Gnomish scholars for generations, resulted in the eradication of approximately 55 goblins, with their leader captured and delivered back to headquarters for interrogation.

After the battle, a scouting party, bravely led by the venerable Cecil himself, located the base of operations of these goblins and their orcish compatriots. However, cowardice of the band of misfits prevented a full scale assault, of which the Gnomish leader would most certainly have been successful.

Chapter 2: Cecil Destroys the Drakkoth Menace(6/16/22)

Once again, the dwarves of Gammelgard pleaded for the aid of the acclaimed Cecil T Puddingtonsworthshire (12th of his name) and beseeched him to ride into battle against the dastardly goblin hordes.  After repeated begging and pleading by the dwarves, Cecil magnanimously agreed and recruited a ragtag bunch of miscreants to serve under his illustrious command.

Cecil led his platoon to the town of Grafton, where he dispatched a forward recon team to survey the town and report back to him.  This proved unnecessary however, as from his meticulously selected vantage point, Cecil was able to survey the town  and, due to his superior intellect, immediately identify the location of a secret underground bunker used by the goblins.

Cecil commandeered a local building on the edge of town and setup a command HQ, from which he ordered his troops into battle.  As his troops advanced into the town, the goblins, upon realizing they were facing the great and mighty Cecil, panicked and attacked in a haphazard and poorly organized fashion.  With the aid and leadership of Cecil, the platoon dispatched dozens of goblins, and the battle quickly became a rout of the goblin menace.  

As the battle waned, a squad of Drakkoth, unfamiliar with Cecil’s battlefield tactics, attempted to join the fight and ambush Cecil and his troops while already engaged. Cecil and his platoon would have none of this poor sportsmanship and promptly routed the drakkoth menace while simultaneously repelling the goblin horde.

As the smoke cleared and both the goblins and drakkoth were routed, the final drakkoth stood alone on the field. Cecil bravely challenged the beast to single combat, but the coward fled into the woods rather than face the might and fury of the great Cecil T Puddingtonsworthshire.
