    I got that soundtrack to Icewind Dale II in the release set with the game, along with a map and some dice. Great soundtrack -- used it for many D&D sessions. And for some reason right now I have the tune from Kid Icarus stuck in my head.

    D&D General Characters With Unfinished Business

    Someday, we're going to go back and recover the bag of holding in which we stashed the body of one of the party members who was killed by a bodak.

    World of Warcraft: Midnight

    Huh. Now a WoW guy, but look forward to the inevitable context spilling into VLDL's Skycraft setting.

    Spoilers A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms

    Well, yeah, but you also have to have the wealth for horses (2-3), arms, and armor. A knight without those things isn't a knight; they're just a bandit with a fancy title. Makes the system self regulating. That tradition carried past the medieval period when officers had to furnish their own...

    We All Won – The OGL Three Years Later

    Eggses!

    Microwaved mug eggs are pretty good, and fast, plus you can add some cheese and toppings for a mini omelette. We also have a little fixture that you can make egg patties with in the microwave -- makes for good egg snadwiches & muffins. Fritttata good. Quiche less so IMO.
