It's witch season again
Behind the Wand: Meet Stregi!
by on 10/10/2024Hello, General! How's the spooky season going for you?
Today, we have a truly magical guest—one of the newest and most enchanting members of the Alliance Ranks. Yes, I’m talking about the pumpkin spice latte lover, Stregi, the unmistakably tiny gnome witch.
Sheepy: “Should I be worried about turning into a frog during this interview?”
Stregi: “A frog? Oh, please! Those are so last season! I’m thinking... pumpkins! Or maybe just a few extra whiskers. Care to find out?”
Sheepy: (laughs nervously) “I think I’ll pass on the whiskers, thanks! How about you tell me why you joined the Alliance instead?”
Stregi: “Let’s just say things got a little too serious when Navira and his undead army started marching through our forest. I grew up on tales of Razz, learning that even the tiniest gnomes can pack a punch, so I pulled out a few tricks of my own to protect our home!”
One of Stregi’s approached Sheepy, rubbing against their legs with a soft purr.
Sheepy: “Aww, so cute! These cats you summon... where did they come from?”
Stregi: “I found them as kittens, abandoned deep in the Faery Forest. Most thought they were too wild to handle, but I saw something special in them. They’re like me—powerful, a bit misunderstood. So, I raised them as my familiars, and we’ve been inseparable ever since.”
Sheepy: “You said your're misunderstood. How so?"
Stregi: “Oh, where to start? Outsiders see me pulling pranks and panic—‘stay away from her!’ My gnome friends share in the fun, but when it comes time to defend the forest, they get all nervous. Gnomes like peace, but sometimes you need a bit of sparkle to deal with real threats! I just like to do things my way!”
As I thanked Stregi for her time and turned to leave, I felt a tingle on my head. Reaching up... I had... cat ears?! I spun around, and Stregi chuckled. With a flick of her wand and a few sparks, the ears vanished. “Just harmless fun, Sheepy!” .
Looks like the Alliance is getting more colorful by the day! Who knows what manner of amazing heroes will join us next?
Sheepy out!
