No, he means Khal Drogo from A Song of Ice and Fire, who died of infection from an otherwise inconsequential wound.

thinking more about this dangerous comparison, are you sure that witch-companion of Deebus means him good?

She's not a witch, she's a thief. Which is a very respectable position in kobold society.

Yeah, that's part of why I don't frequently work on this anymore. A journey in adventure mode requires interesting presentation, since many of them involve a lot of "stop, kill, sleep," especially when there are no towns in the world. Still, I do keep working on this, and there are still some interesting things left for Deebus to do. But I realize the actual journeying of Deebus has gotten a bit old.

I kinda like it when you narrate the battles, so maybe keep doing that?

I, too have enjoyed the narrated combat. Surely there's some quest, whether NPC's will give them or not, worthy of Deebus?

Right now he's looking for a Hydra to help an old thief get revenge for her child and husband. And he's only killed 2 or 3 non-titan megabeasts so far.

So the Bronze Collosus, did you really kill it in one go? I know you haven't savescummed so far but a Bronze Collosus is a bit much even for this kobold! Also I just spent all evening reading all 52 pages of this while listening to the Dragons Dogma ost, best evening ever.

Deebus is amazing, he has basically liberated the kobold race from the oppression of the bigger creatures, emboldened the meek and brought low their sworn enemies, all with the strength of the weakest of creatures! Very much a fan of this story.

TBH, bronze collossi aren't as tough as demons in single combat. They don't have as much natural skill, so it's easier to dodge them. The main problem is that, even for an experienced adventurer, if you don't have something that can seriously hurt them, then the fight might go on long enough for them to get a hit in.

If you have a bladed weapon, they're easy to kill.

If you have a bladed weapon composed of a material capable of cutting bronze reliably, they're easy to kill. Except maybe a spear or dagger, I guess.

Ptw also based on your world how many mega beast are there for deebus to kill? It would be cool for him to single handed change the age based on beast kills.
