BESPECTORED BLACKFLAME CORONATION
All now arise with fiery eyes, I return triumphant
News of my end the liars have sent, but tales of my glory abundant
Sound now the bells and see for yourselves, i’ll let loose my bag of beheaded
Claiming my seat as my mission’s completed, next a celebration most splendid
Bespectored blackflame coronation
A reensorcelled celebration
Bespectored blackflame coronation
A reensorcelled celebration...
Of echoing battleblast horns, bring forth trophies and rewards
I genuflect, you ask i recollect my conquests which gained me your favor
I’ll tell you…
I’ve travelled beyond the ends of your infernal grip
I’ve pissed in the skulls your rivals then taken a sip
Now your merciless name skips across everyone of these seas
Now your might frightens nations quietly enjoying peace
Enjoying peace but not for long
Dubbed for my efforts, to stand by your side
Demonic accolades, stand to hear my battlecry

BLACK CHALLENGE
Ascend you now these winding steps, entering in this dark contest
Buckled tight and freshly mailed, may the cruelest freak prevail
Swim through blood and wade through gore, as ordered by your emperor
Undreamt of rewards you may seek, but first a test you’ll never beat
Enter now! The Black Challenge awaits thee…
Now bow to the one who gives us purpose, gives us grace
War’s triumphal avatar, our sovereign lord of barren waste
Behold his maze
Running the gauntlet you’ll probably die inside
Survive this first test to see the horror multiply
Challenged for days
Trials of terror see your madness amplified
Servants of steel aching for the finish line
It’s every creature for itself, greedy beasts vying for wealth
One thousand miles you have journeyed, one thousand very ugly opponents all but worthy
Squabbling thieves and deceitful assassins, irreverent clerics and fallen antipaladins
Faceless pit fighters and berserk barbarians, kill them all!
A Black Challenge awaits thee!
Now bow to the one who gives us purpose, gives us grace
War’s triumphal avatar, our sovereign lord of savage competition
Pounding drums, jeering crowds, dying screams make the Master proud
Pitch of death to entertain, spilling blood till only one remains
“I can see now the many wonders, I can see clearly what I stand to gain from this
I can see now the heavy treasures”
Gouging eyes, splattered brains, smears of failure as they die in vain
Coliseum emptying, bringing forth fresh meat to challenge thee!
A new challenge approacheth!

HECTORED BUGBEAREAN WRATH
Ugly lurching battlefreaks pushed around by lesser beasts
You know it’s goblinoia first degree, big and dumb is all they see
So used to getting fooled and getting teased, bestial animosity
The mighty merciless bugbears still always treated unfair
By their more cunning and deceptive kin the greenskinned demihumans
Cowardly goblins, orcs and trollish fools, kobolds and hobgoblins too
These greenskins lie, these snotlings cheat
We’re given only scraps from triumph’s heavy teat
We’ve risked our lives, we fight like you
We’ve had enough of being exploited and screwed
Amidst the fray, rebel dimwits
Marauding mutineers and sick of this shit
Bugbearean brethren, a call to arms
Time to clobber their brains and take what's ours
Lash out!
Hectored Bugbearean wrath!
Lumbering slowly across the bloody pitch
Toward yet another little goblin bitch
Our peanut brains have snapped fully
Confusing reprisal against the worms and bullies
Lash out!
Hectored Bugbearean wrath!

CHAOTIC DWARVEN MISCHIEFISM
Cascading down their mountain keeps, pouring forth blackbearded creeps
Fangs and curls and waving axes in the name of Hashut
Mutants of the northest darks, slavers whipping, orders barked
Snarling hatred from volcanic hells they inhabit
Magic swirls in molten cores, now where there was not before
Secrets guarded tightly by the grotesque bull centaurs
Riddles, pranks and tricks obscene, dwarven misfits, just plain mean
Beware the ancient divine…
Mischief at the hands of chaos dwarves in hidden mountains
Colored jet like the night sky, natives built this obsidian starless territory
The chaos swelling deep within the roots of their stronghold
Like pulsing veins of ore, fear them and fear their chaotic dwarven mischiefism
Artificers of doom
Forgers of these stoic iron masks, ignoble in their giant hats
Inventing magnamystic death-spurting siege machines
Smelt within their ziggurats, spell-controlled war robots
Infamous misdeeds called…
Mischief at the hands of chaos dwarves in hidden mountains
Colored black like the night sky, natives built this obsidian starless territory
The chaos swelling deep within the roots of their stronghold
Like a blasting blunderbuss, fear them and fear their chaotic dwarven mischiefism
Fear the hallowed boom of war!
The peace you’ve known has passed, in pyrotechnological advance
Conquestual furnace of greed, the immolateur’s flames- they must feed!
Last light shown dim the ranks of scary pranksters
Night fight begins as ogres pump the seething bellows
Onward to hell, inferno god is with them
Let loose his spell, slaved orcs and other awful fellows
Riding on wings of crimson taurus steeps
Diving these things toward the mirth of your enslavement
Hobgoblins- bind!
Lammasu- ride!
Hashut- guide!
Back to the place of fire and desolation

THAUMATURGICAL NONCHALANCE
I’ve mastered all known cryptomantical arts, a born virtuoso of the archmages’ courts
Complete comprehension of all thats unreal, but for anything else I never will feel
Invincible permanent memorization, never a resting, never cessation
I wield the unstoppable magickal force, an indifferent enchantmentor without remorse
Thaumaturgical nonchalance
Meteor swarms, incendiary clouds, fingers of death, Mordenkainen’s swords
Bigby’s crushing hand, cone of cold, disintegrate
Irresistible dance, time stop, gate
Greater wish
I cast them all, meaningless apathy guides my assault
Because i can, my epic magick transcends the folly and ban
Radical wizardry, extinguishing life means nothing to me
A fitting fate, demilich my orbs of hate
Killing wind, stoically cast from my cold, dead skin

GHASTLY, GRAVEN & GRIMOIRELESS
Staring vacantly into the abyss, lost in the tar of abject opiates
Lifelessly listless in immortal remiss
Ghastly, graven and grimoireless, bound by the book you no longer possess
Ghastly, graven and grimoireless and you’re shaking your fist at the world
Your hunt continues on, where could your tome have gone?
Retaining all the spells you know but your bitter inner self is shown
Your ugliness elucidates the lonesome bed of filth you’ve made
You can barely carry on, within this world you don’t belong
Staring contently into the abyss, drunk off of phantasmagorical piss
A pointlessly wicked enfeebling mess
You’re ghastly, graven and grimoireless, obsessed by the book you no longer possess
Ghastly, graven and grimoireless and you’re shaking your fist at the world
Suffer it to fail
My misery you’ll share with me lest I regain divinity
Failure of recovery brings incantated tantruming
Such selfish strength I have found, masterless and underground
Casting pox in curseful plague, torched survivors, slaughtered brave
Feel my anger, feel its flames, glowing eyes I break the chains
Dead to you and dead to me, I take from you all that you see
Still scowling without mercy into the abyss, still drunk off phantasmagorical piss
Envious grudge-laden pitilessness
You’re ghastly, graven and grimoireless, marred by a manual you still fail to possess
You are ghastly, graven and grimoireless and you’re making your mark on the world
Spoiling beneath your feet, festered by your malevolence, and made to rot
