Chapter 18

Do you focus on your task and, if so, what do you do to complete it?
I will bring Rizlyx to heel the only way he'll understand: with .
You push aside the primal urges inside of you and turn back towards Rizlyx, shaking your head at him. "No, Rizlyx. I will not follow you. You will follow me.", you tell him and he rocks back in surprise as though you had struck him, "The master has sent me to take your place. You are a bad leader. You lead our kind to ruin. You will step down from leadership and kneel to me. This is what must be."
Rizlyx growls at you, snarling his anger at what he perceives to be your disrespect and impudence. He grips the club that is as large as he is (which is really only about 3'6" and still a good half-foot shorter than you) and steps towards you menacingly. "You want Rizlyx kneel to you?! NEVER! I am strongest! I rule goblins!", he roared and brought his other hand to join the first on the club as he started to move to swing it towards you in a horizontal arc aimed at your head.
The move, however, is completely telegraphed due to the size of the weapon and the simplistic way that Rizlyx wields it. The club swings through the air and you duck under it easily enough, rising up and stepping towards Rizlyx as you bring your own glittering obsidian club up in a vertical swing up towards Rizlyx's still outstretched right arm. The club cuts through the air with an eerie swiftness and, as you aim at Rizlyx's elbow, seeking to break the joint, the obsidian of the club shifts and changes until it has become a one-handed warhammer, the head double-sided and heavy with a curved spike in the back of it and the striking surface broad and flat.
It is that surface that slams into Rizlyx's elbow with a bone-shattering impact, the sound of bone breaking audible in the room as your weapon strikes home. Rizlyx screams in pain and his club goes flying as he loses all strength in his right arm, the limb now limp and bent at an awkward angle as the elbow is now little more than splinters. He howls in agony, but he does not seem to be done fighting as rage grips him and he lunges at you with his one good arm.
"Idiot.", you growl at him as you use your left arm to brush aside Rizlyx's frantic one-armed swipe and then, shortening your grip on your obsidian hammer to right under the head so that you can bring it to bear in close quarters. You jab your fist forward, slamming the heavy head of the hammer into the other goblin's face with a sickening thud. You hear his nose break and teeth snap under the impact as blood spurts from beneath your hammer's obsidian surface. He staggers back, his face a mess of blood and broken flesh, but he manages to glare at you with eyes that are already swelling shut.
You can see his intent to continue fighting in his gaze and you shake your head at him. "Do not continue, Rizlyx. I am your better. Yield or I will kill you with my next attack.", you tell him, giving him one chance to try and accept your leadership...and seeing already that he has made up his mind as he roars out his anger from broken lips, blood spraying as he charges at you.
"You damned fool!", you snarl at him as you again hold your hammer from the end of the handle so that you can get more momentum as you swing it in a horizontal arc at Rizlyx's head. You spin the hammer as you swing it so that it is the spiked end that cuts through the air towards the other goblin. Rizlyx blindly charges forward, rage and his own blood blinding him as he rushes you. He does not even attempt to dodge as your weapon strikes his skull, your superior strength and speed making sure your attack struck before Rizlyx was even close to being able to strike you.
The obsidian spike pierces the side of Rizlyx's head, cracking his skull like an egg as your hammer slams into it. The entire top half of his head is demolished by the impact as your hammer cuts through skin, skull and brain to leave behind only a slurry of gore that splatters on the goblins gathered around to watch. Rizlyx's body, already dead but not even aware, continues forward even as the bottom half of his skull wags loosely on his neck. The momentum of his charge sends his corpse forward and you sidestep it as it stumbles past you and collapses in a heap on the ground, the body finally going still in a pool of its own blood and brain-matter.
You look at the corpse and shake your head before turning towards the other goblins that had been watching the fight and that now look at the body of their ex-leader in stunned silence. You slam your hammer down into the stone ground, making a sharp clap of sound at the thunderous impact that gains the attention of all the goblins in the room. They all look at you, their eyes full of both awe and fear.
You slam your fist into your chest with a hearty thump as you bare your teeth at the other goblins. "I am your leader now! You will follow what I command! Minion is your ruler and you will do as I say! Understand this and follow my words and you will find honor and victory and the master's praises upon you!", you call out to them and then you point towards Rizlyx's ruined corpse on the ground, "Oppose me and you shall share Rizlyx's fate at the end of my hammer! Is this understood?"
How do the other goblins respond to your words?

Memoirs of a Minion
Fight, kill, die and fuck for your evil master (not necessarily in that order)!
Inspired by the immensely entertaining CHYOO story "Game Monster" by Cantalope and the very awesome video game, Overlord, in this story you are a magically spawned minion-type creature (goblin, zombie, ghoul, dark knight, etc) born to live, fight and die for your evil overlord master. Serve your master well and survive the many pitfalls of minion-dom and rise up above the rank of fodder for heroes to your overlord's right hand. Fail or betray your master (and get caught doing so) and meet your gruesome and horrible . In either case, you'll be sure to fight, kill and (if you're lucky)defile heroes and other creatures and foes along the way, all in the name of your dark master!
