Bad News from Outside of Catland

It's been a slow week for news in Catland, where the main story has been, "ooo should I take this computah class or this computah class, or should I take this computah class and the other computah class. And "hey, what's a computah again? And how's it gonna help me make these pizza pies?" That all changed this morning, when close friend to YDG, Groozebud, reported the following tragedy:

Groozebud: bad news - mimring is missing
J: stolen?
Groozebud: just his wings in the box. his body is gone
Groozebud: you wouldnt have stolen him?
J: Imagine the creature you could build with mimring's body and karnak's wings... he'd reign terror over all heroscape terrains. There'd be no stopping him.
Groozebud: J, theres no character called karnak
don't be stupid
J: yeah -- I froze up
what's the other one called - the other dragon?
Groozebud: you think they're all dragons, dont you?
in fact, mimring is the only dragon - which is why its so terrible that his body is missing

There are several competing theories: the first is that the Big Fella, a mysterious figure who occasionally posts on YDG's comment boards, stole the figurine out of a general disgust for all dice with more than six sides. The second is that Groozebud, who had just taken out a large insurance policy on the figure (see Mimring's stats below; the "fire line special attack" alone is valued at nearly .0001 grand), did it to cash in. Feel free to discuss these and other theories in the comment section.

  1. While it's true I do hate Heroscape, it's also true that my respect for dragons of any size or shape is unrivaled. I would never strip the wings off such a noble beast.

  2. Perhaps a lonely bud with no dragons of his own took Mimring? If so, such a little bud would do well to return the magical dragon. As is written in the holy bubble scripture, all transgressions against a bubble-bud will be forgiven when responsible parties seek to repent.
