10. Professor Moriarty. Just to get some good ol' villainy in here... Professor James Moriarty is a fictional character who is the best known antagonist of the detective Sherlock Holmes. Widely considered to be the first true example of a supervillain, Moriarty is a criminal mastermind...

1. The Tick A square-jawed, muscular man in a bright blue bodysuit, with antennae sticking up from his head, the Tick is a surreal parody of superheroes. The Tick is high-spirited, frequently obtuse, and is prone to making odd, dim remarks and "inspirational" speeches filled with confusing...

Round One Voting HERE In the fine tradition of the superb Greatest X contests last summer, I'd to try my hand at moderating the Greatest Character Showdown! Who needs separate contests for heroes, villains, women, and sidekicks? A great character is a great character. Let's find out who's the...

How much do you find this normally costs? -Talgian

Hey everyone, I'm wondering about how balanced the The Le line of Unorthodox products are with 3.5. I allow most completes, races, psionics, and eberron, and PH2 in the game, and I'm thinking about adding the Unorthodox for more options. For people who have used it in games, does it gel well...

My precious search is up and running again. Thanks a million Piratecat! -Talgian

Off-topic, but I find it really funny that a Cthulhu product is one of the suggested tie-ins to this thread. -Talgian

My. Monkeys-Dance-in-my-Underpants, I have sent you the receipt info. Thanks again!

[PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT] I guess when you've fed a liger it's hard to think of them as dire. There is this place in Wisconsin now called Valley of the Kings, where they take in lions, tigers, camels, pretty much everything. Usually the animals were owned by a private individual who...

I don't have the actual e-mail anymore, but I can go into my PayPal history and find the date, item number, receipt number, etc. I can just copy and paste all the info into an e-mail. Is that okay? -Talgian

I just kind of poke around on a few of their boards, with two exceptions. I really like reading the Eberron forum. Detailed information from the creator and lots of really good campaign ideas. That being said, I consider the Character Optimization (CO) board to be a holy grail. As a DM I get to...

While I firmly stand by Monte and his decision to help the lifeblood of our hobby, the FLGS (hope I didn't say anything incendiary there :p), I did see this: http://frpgames.com/cart.php?m=product_detail&p=28329 I don't know if FRP will get it, but it appears, judging on what they do, that...

Monte made his post about Amazon on June 6th. I don't think a comment made on what is really an obscure message board would have a noticeable impact on Amazon sales a month later.

While I personally do not care for White Wolf, they are a well established and reputable company. They're generally considered the second biggest RPG producer behind WotC, so I imagine (and I did pre-order through them) that they're a secure place to buy from. -Talgian

Beware! Monte has said that this is a "hobby channel exclusive." Amazon may claim to have it at that price and such, but, well, here, Monte said it best: That whole thread is here. -Talgian

I'm going to nominate Wizards of the Coast. I don't think there would really be a viable RPG industry without them, and the single biggest player in an industry not being included in an industry award seems kind of silly. Plus, between the FAQ, constantly updated errata, and really accessible...

So basically, they took Munchkin, added a board, and OOTS-ified it? COOL! That's like having your cake and eating it too. :D -Talgian

Just so JoeGKushner knows, I may be a little late. I'm leaving at 8 from Highland Park, so for a normal person, it's a 30 minute drive. However, I'm notoriously bad at directions (hence why I'm leaving so early), and it's my first time driving to Mt. Prospect, so even with the hour buffer, I may...

I'm going to college and needed something to hang in my room that would not only look gorgeous, but also tell people a little about me. $94 is worth that. -Talgian
