Hey now! I happen to be a fantasy geek who also collects Barbies, and I think these are way cool. I plan to get them. Ariel

All items, magic and mundane, are divided based on who needs/can use them most. Sometimes one character comes away with more loot than another, but it all evens out in the end. Items that no one wants are sold or donated to local folks who need them (like MW weapons to the local militia)...

OMG...you must have played with one of our old players...he hoarded magic items like you wouldn't believe and played solely for XP. And said as much. Needless to say...he lost. :) Ariel

In a one-shot I played with a group of my husband's old gaming buddies, one girl was alternating between reading a "Wheel of Time" book and a Bible. Needless to say she had no clue what was going on at any given moment. I couldn't figure out what she was even doing there. Ariel

Go figure. I'm German-from-Russia, and my maiden name ended in the same last three letters as yours does. I was asked by a few people over the years whether I was Japanese or Chinese. :rolleyes: Usually pointing out my uber-white skin (or the sauerkraut and beer in my grocery cart), or...

As a child I loved the fantastical - unicorns, pegasi, wizards and valiant knights on strong warhorses. I also loved mythology. I read a lot and had an active imagination, and loved playing make-believe. I heard of a game called Dungeons and Dragons but knew no one who played (I think a...

Soooo...have the absolute final selections been made and e-mails sent to the submitters whose spells were accepted? Just wondering if I should keep checking my e-mail with hope and anticipation, or if I should just get on with the crying. ;) (All my submissions will see life in my campaigns...

I love playing clerics! In our main campaign I play a cleric/ranger/Harper Priest of Mielikki. I also have played a Cleric/Fighter/Doomguide of Kelemvor (one of the coolest gods in the FR pantheon, IMO). Ariel

Arrrr! Captain Anne Kidd be me name! If me numbers are right three o' me kin are wandering the deck already! Even though there's no legal rank on a pirate ship, everyone recognizes you're the one in charge. Even though you're not always the traditional swaggering gallant, your steadiness and...

I came up as a LG Half-Orc Fighter...but not a very good one. STR 9 DEX 7 CON 6 INT 15 WIS 16 CHA 12 I think my INT, WIS, and CHA scores came out fairly accurate, and probably strength too, but the DEX and CON seem reeeaaalllly low. I can almost see the lawful good, but Half-Orc Fighter...

While most of our party of 11 was battling a trio of trolls, a few went to investigate a noise down the hall. There they found our Bad Guy du Jour, an evil priest, and his three dire weasels. The fighter entered the fray, greatsword swinging...and was promptly dropped into unconsciousness by...

In our main campaign, my characters have riding mares named Ashes and Moondancer. The pack mules are Henry and Layla. Before Layla there was a mule named Manshoon. ;) In our smaller campaign my character is already on her third horse, Pembleton (Tordek and Kelvin are in the big corral in the...

Well, here's one, giving a rating of 4/5: http://www.enworld.org/reviews/index.php?sub=yes&where=active&reviewer=JoeGKushner&product=BoEFP There was a second one that must have been a fan review (I remember it was edited by Psion for Eric's grandma's sake), but I can't find it now. Ariel

I have been excited about and supportive of the Book of Erotic Fantasy since the day the news was announced (yes, even with that less-than-stellar press release). I have spent a great deal of time over the past few months at the Valar Project website ( www.valarproject.com ) and the more I have...

Married to the DM; we are childless by choice. One of our players is married with three teenagers (his oldest just started college), the other is single and in no hurry to settle down. Ariel
