Quoted By:

Word spread throughout the land of Lu Ban's return, and he was soon met on the road by Guan Wei, the master swordsman, and Pu Pu, the greatest martial arts master in the kingdom.

"Why have you come back, Lu Ban?" asked Guan Wei. "You know the penalty for your return is death!"

"Fool!" cried Lu Ban. "The penalty for my return is death, but it will not be my death! My puppet is invincible, and with it I will see this kingdom ruined, as it has tried to ruin me!"

"Your puppet will soon find its strings are no match for my sword," Guan Wei said, and drew his sword, but Pu Pu placed a hand on Guan Wei's shoulder.

"Wait, Guan Wei," Pu Pu said. "Let me break the exile's toy."

"Do not be so sure," Lu Ban laughed, for his puppet assumed the Stance of the Tiger Shark.

"Impossible!" Pu Pu shouted.

"Well, go on and break my toy!" Lu Ban said, and laughed.

Pu Pu then moved to strike at the puppet, but it was faster and stronger than any man, and Pu Pu was soon overcome.

"I warned you of the penalty for my return," Lu Ban laughed as Pu Pu's broken body fell to the ground.

"Enough!" Guan Wei said. "I was foolish to allow my friend Pu Pu to fight this puppet. I will destroy it and end your wicked plans!"

But Guan Wei found that his sword could not cut the puppet's body, and his mightiest blows were deflected.

Before Guan Wei could react, the puppet grasped his sword by the blade and pulled it from his hands.

"My sword!" cried Guan Wei.

Lu Ban laughed at his plight, and said "Now, my puppet, return his sword to him!"

THE TALE OF LU BAN'S PUPPET

PART TWO

===

Lu Ban sought revenge on the land that had dared to exile him. Word quickly spread that his invincible puppet had defeated both the kingdom's master swordsman and the kingdom's greatest martial arts master.

The Emperor, upon hearing of Lu Ban's return, fell cold with fear, for his armies were dispatched to the far edges of the kingdom and could not easily be called back to meet this new threat.

As Lu Ban drew closer, the Emperor grew more afraid. "Let all those hear, the man who destroys Lu Ban's puppet may take my daughter in marriage," the Emperor said, for his daughter was the most beautiful girl in the kingdom.

PART THREE

Lu Ban and his invincible puppet soon reached the coast on their way to the imperial city, not knowing that Yu Bai was waiting for them. The wicked artificer was in a foul mood, for though his puppet had defeated all the swordsmen who had tried to destroy it, they had slowed his passage.

"Does your puppet know how to cook?" Yu Bai asked as he busied himself preparing to cook their fish while the puppet watched him.

"It knows everything about fighting, fool. It does not need to know how to cook," Lu Ban said.

"That is wise," Yu Bai agreed. As Lu Ban looked away to adjust a hinge on the puppet, Yu Bai quickly placed a pine nut in the kindling. An instant later, Lu Ban's fierce gaze was again on Yu Bai. "Hurry up with that fire, idiot," Lu Ban said.

At last Lu Ban sat down to the campfire across from Yu Bai. "Why do you not serve me the fish," Lu Ban demanded.

"It is not ready yet," Yu Bai said, and busied himself stirring the pot.

"You are taking too long," Lu Ban said. "Perhaps my puppet should kill you now."

Yeah, I just made up all the names on the spot when I wrote this and didn't realize until after I posted it that Lu Ban is actually a Lawful Good artificer in Chinese stories. The names were completely coincidental.

Here's something else I made based on a homemade racing-themed Mixel tribe called the Lapzerz.

Thanks!

I was thinking about doing something else similar this weekend but I ended up not having any free time. If this thread's still around later in the week I might post it if I have time to build it, but otherwise I'll make another thread whenever.

Glad to see that people are enjoying this!
