    Heck, I could have actually just googled it for the image.

    Why do we need thieves??

    Eh. I don't think all Heroes should be dismissed as Mary Sues or Gary Stus. Mary Sue was specifically an author self-insert by fan fiction into an existing IP/universe, making herself the center of the plot, better than and admired by all around her, and able to resolve any problem with minimal...

    AD&D 1E What does this (d8, d6) dice notation mean in the DMG?

    Agh. Typo'd WHFB when I meant WHFR - Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay. Which used percentile skills but also d6s for some things.

    Also his speed, his agility, his indomitable will, his quick thinking and quick reactions, his cunning, his preternatural senses, his charisma, his instant good judgement about when to run or to fight... He's a Hero. Or likely Superhero, in Chainmail/OD&D/AD&D terms (8th level Fighter).

    AD&D 1E What does this (d8, d6) dice notation mean in the DMG?

    I may be thinking of WHFB or Dark Future, maybe. Definitely Blood Bowl, though.

    Oh, I've lost a bit of strength, for sure, on some movements. Others I'm holding basically steady. A couple of less-frequent movements that I'm still learning I've been able to add a little weight. Thanks!

    Hard to gauge progressive overload when I'm switching movements (dumbbell flat bench vs. smith barbell inclined). That being said, comparing against the last times I did each of those same exercises, it's about the same. While losing a little body weight, so I'll take it? I do want to make...

    Trailer Frankenstein | Guillermo del Toro | Official Trailer

    I enjoyed it but I can see the flaws others are talking about. There was some greatness there but it didn't fully come together.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    I liked it quite a bit, but yes, there were parts of the dialogue which felt like they were explaining things a little TOO directly. I had the "enhancement" of watching with my brother, while my ex-partner who was deeply dramatic and traumatic was expecting me to call her as soon as the...

    AD&D 1E What does this (d8, d6) dice notation mean in the DMG?

    Yup. As did Blood Bowl and IIRC Advanced HeroQuest before that.

    Monday night: All the Smith machines were occupied, so three circuits of dumbbell bench with drop sets, dumbbell inclined curls with drop sets, and dumbbell seated lateral raises with partials at the end (dumbbells were also in high demand). Followed by three sets of machine overhead press with...

    Saturday I did four sets of inclined Smith barbell bench with drop sets after the first, three sets of hack squats, three of machine triceps extensions with drop sets, and just two hard sets of machine biceps curls, though I got a nice pump. I'm also slowly losing weight again, down around...

    Playing "Adventurers" As Actual Adventurers

    Oh, the other system I thought of was Torchbearer. I remember reading a play report and thinking it successfully makes simple travel dramatic and difficult.
