Here lies Captain "What's His Face"

He probably hated me because I'm a Bugbear, and he was Sladovian, and I wish I could change that.
Due to the onslaught of those spider "things", he was stolen straight from the front lines. If only I'd have aimed a bit better... I wish I could change that.
If only I had asked who his tailor was, then I could look anywhere as cool as he did! And I wish I could change that!
 
But instead of worrying about all the "could've's", we take this moment to remember the brave Captain;
 
Who sacrificed his own life so that the remainder of his men may live,
Who was a revered and respected leader to all those in his ranks,
Who, despite our party's disposition, was kind enough to allow us to work alongside his men,
Who I wish wasn't so easily captured, as well as such a bad shot! Er...
Well, I digress.
 
As we look at the view from the hill under which he is buried, we look upon his past, and we look forward towards our futures thanks to his great sacrifice.
