Any chance Gray is for Greyhawk?!

Or older players / DMs (like me) who are not well versed in D&D lore because they have spent the last 40 years playing in a homebrew setting!

Actually, what needs to be done is to justify that a coffee table art book =/= "official title." That seems to be the relevant bit and one that could make sense in that something in an art book is not "official" lore. However, a reference encyclopedia that provides "official lore" is therefore...

I don't know that I need that, but I am intrigued from these previews. Heck, didn't someone say it was only $60?! That make it hard not to buy for me.

I'm just the opposite. Unless it was maybe filled with only the 80's era "good" TSR art. Then I might reconsider.

Where did he state the opposite? I definitely don't see that in the OP, but could be wrong. Or is this information from a different interview?

How do you come up with that reading? No saying it isn't there, it is just a different impression then what I came away with. Trying to see if I am being complacent.

Well to start: female =/= feminine, so you need to decide what is it that you want to express? Female great white sharks and eagles (among many other animals) are larger and stronger than the males but otherwise not very different. By western gender norms that would make them more masculine...

Cthulhu is not a man, or did I misunderstand your response. PS - The person you responded to was not talking about Cthulhu, but a previous comment about hot demon women, see below:

I saw it in the theatre when it came out. Maybe it was the shaky camera, but I don't remember anything being gross and definitely no one vomited in the theater I as at! However, I think you are absolutely correct about the scary part being convincing yourself it could be real. I just couldn't do...
