Somewhere in the forest of Albino, little goblin sat beside the small creek on a small, but quite comfortable rock, looking at the campfire he made. He was sitting there for quite a while now, waiting for the wolfhides to be ready for tanning, while also cooking some food for himself. If someone would pass by him, they would be left puzzled, as goblins mostly ate food raw, and in some rare cases, when they were careless enough to come near fire with some meat, they could awaken to the wonders of cooking. Most of the times they burned meat, or themselves, and so some other goblin would awaken as chief, who made food, not ruled goblins, though sometimes they were chieftains or aspiring chieftains. But no goblin could actually cook, at most they threw some stuff near fire and chewed on some other stuff, while they waited. This one, however, was-
"Hey! We already got that it's Me you're talking about. Quit dilly dalliing, and tell everyone something they don't know already! Or if they're seers, confirm their visions or something. Stupid oracles, can't they all go and die already?"
PYRO!!!
It was old psychotic not-so goblin Pyro, who managed to make a magic-nuke and get reincarnated in some other place, where this poor Narator had to teleport.
"Don't tell me you're afraid of teleports?"
Actually, I am. Even though I'm safe from any malfunction of teleportation spells, I don't want to find myself stranded in some awful place, or being split in two parts.
"Yeah, me too. I'd have to tolerate two of you at the same time."
Would you mind if we get back to the story?
"Yeah ,sure, Just do some timeskips, I don't want to sit here for another day."
This little goblin was actually ex-hero Pyro, who encountered curse upon reincarnating in dungeon, as it was rather new and undeveloped.
( N/N: Now that moron is tanning the hides of direwolves as his magic was not suited for tanning magic-resistant materials. As the process is quite boring, we will skip how he tans hides, it's both boring and grotesque, especially if you consider he's doing it naked.)

After a while Pyro, along with already tanned hides and his almost non-existent skill in tailoring, managed to make some rough looking clothes. Strangely enough he managed to make a cloak, which is not that strange actually, pants, coat, with hood, and boots, all made out of bones and furs of direwolves, or actually one direwolf, as all of the direwolves were quite big, almost 1.5 times bigger than average brown bears from earth.
Now equipped and finally not naked, Pyro was ready to set off. Too bad for him that he didn't know of map function-
"Map?"
And as being who could break 4th wall, he could make his life easier by evasdropping on ethereal voices.
"Thanks Nar! I didn't know I had the map function... or I just forgot? Eh, nevermind, continue, please."
As he was looking at the map, he decided to-
"Question! How do I set marker on it? I really need to-"
OH FOR FUCK'S SAKE! YOU JUST POINT AT SOME RANDOM PART AND HOLD IT DOWN!!!
"OK."
Now, Pyro was going to GET THE FUCK OUT OF THIS FOREST. Unfortunately, just as he was about to move on, he encountered a bear.
"I don't see any-"
The bear was quite big, and with his gray color, he was more akin to a rock, that is when it was sleeping, which it did now, as it was confident that no one would disturb it's sleep.
"No wonders in that, just look at hist stats, all physical stats are above 200. And magical are at least 50. No way I'm fighting it."
And so, the cowardly goblin declined the challenge, and carefuly sneaked around the bear, all in order to get as far from the forest as possible. But by the law of dumbasses, some adventurer party was also stranded in the forest, and though that the 'Rock' was quite good place to camp at night...

Pyro POV
Nope, nope, nope. Nar, you freaking bastad! How the hell I am supposed to... wait, he meant that adventurers were going to camp just near that hulking mass, then it's easy to conclude that I'm in no immediate danger. *Sigh*, it seems, I should get on the treetops and hop around them like ninja. At least I have claws and spikes, so it won't be that bad.
Using my almost forgotten climbing skill, or mastery, or whatever that menu thingy call it, I successfuly climbed the tree and was ready to bounce away, but then I decided to play prank on adventurers, by enchanting my arrow with wind and earth, and applying poison on it. Then I get my bow, aimed at the 'rock' and let it loose, at the same time running as fast from it as possible, as well as sneakingly as possible. Yeah, I know, it was not that good reason to anger the bear, but I just couldn't leave those dumbasees to their doom. Also, if they died now, then it was not good idea to come into the forest at the first place. Anyway, my job is to get out of this forest, and by the looks of it, I can go to the village, that was raised, as it's the closest place where I can look for loot and people.

Thus I proceeded hopping in the direction of the village, when suddenly
Feat of strength performed.
Kill the Moss Bear.
You managed the feat none thought possible, that is killing the old stone bear, that locals called "Moss Bear". But you killed it with poison and by hiding from it, while some random adventurer party had to die because of it, so it's not that great feat if you look at it this way. You could as well just order an army to kill it, but in that case you would at least gain it's body and fur, albeit in poor condition, not the charred corpse that now lost it's soul and stumble around the forest in search of the living. Good thing that any trace of your involvment was erazed with the last ditch effort of some aspiring archmage.
No title awarded.
No bonus attributes awarded

1 common token awarded

Consequences:
"Moss Bear" became "Undead Moss Bear"
Not bad. I got some free points from my prank.
While at it I decided to allocate some points, namely 1 points to all, but luck, charisma and PP, and additional points to willpower and magic.
