The god Shamash sends 13 winds to bind Humbaba, and he is captured. The mountains quake with the tumult and the sky turns black. Gilgamesh is afraid, but with some encouraging words from Enkidu the battle commences. He accuses Enkidu of betrayal, and vows to disembowel Gilgamesh and feed his flesh to the birds. Humbaba, the ogre-guardian of the Cedar Forest, insults and threatens them. As they approach the cedar mountain, they hear Humbaba bellowing, and have to encourage each other not to be afraid. Despite similarities between his dream figures and earlier descriptions of Humbaba, Enkidu interprets these dreams as good omens, and denies that the frightening images represent the forest guardian. Gilgamesh has five terrifying dreams about falling mountains, thunderstorms, wild bulls, and a thunderbird that breathes fire. Every few days they camp on a mountain, and perform a dream ritual. Gilgamesh and Enkidu journey to Lebanon Cedar Forest. Ninsun adopts Enkidu as her son, and Gilgamesh leaves instructions for the governance of Uruk in his absence. Gilgamesh visits his mother, the goddess Ninsun, who seeks the support and protection of the sun-god Shamash for their adventure.

The elders give Gilgamesh advice for his journey. Despite warnings from Enkidu and the council of elders, Gilgamesh will not be deterred. Gilgamesh proposes a journey to the Cedar Forest to slay the monstrous demi-god Humbaba, in order to gain fame and renown. After a fierce battle, Enkidu acknowledges Gilgamesh's superior strength and they become friends. When Gilgamesh attempts to visit the wedding chamber, Enkidu blocks his way, and they fight. Learning from a passing stranger about Gilgamesh's treatment of new brides, Enkidu is incensed and travels to Uruk to intervene at a wedding. Shamhat brings Enkidu to a shepherds' camp, where he is introduced to a human diet and becomes the night watchman. Gilgamesh, meanwhile, has been having dreams that relate to the imminent arrival of a loved new companion. This seduction by Shamhat, a temple prostitute, is Enkidu's first step toward being tamed, and after seven days of making love with him, she proposes to take him back to Uruk. The trapper tells Gilgamesh about the man, and it is arranged for Enkidu to be seduced by a harlot. He is spotted by a trapper, whose livelihood is being ruined because Enkidu is uprooting his traps.

They create a primitive man, Enkidu, who is covered in hair and lives in the wild with the animals. The gods respond to their pleas by creating an equal to Gilgamesh in order to distract him. For the young men (the tablet is damaged at this point) it is conjectured that Gilgamesh is exhausting them through games, tests of strength, or perhaps forced labour on building projects. For the young women of Uruk this oppression takes the form of a droit de seigneur - or 'lord's right' to sleep with newly married brides on their wedding night. Gilgamesh, two-thirds god and one-third man, is oppressing his people, who are crying out to the gods for help. The story begins by introducing Gilgamesh, king of Uruk. While he is known to be a hero, he was a tyrant and is infamous for his lust of ruling mortals before he fights the deity Enkidu (sometimes identified as Enki) and he later becomes redeemed.

I shared them to the FB group but as Facebook's limit is 100 megs for a file, and I have somewhere around 500 builds in the file alone, I thought I'd put them up in a thread. Hey guys! I've been doing a bunch of builds for the old Marvel Superheroes RPG lately and have been combining those with builds I've had for.
