That is an example of a very dramatic event: the traditionally non-primary attacker saves his wounded companions by felling the beast that would slaughter all of them. It's a perfect way to start an item's legacy.

Personally, I was waiting for the chain to snap and take out Rose's mum.

After three weeks, I'm halfway through "The Annotated Legends." Before that, I pummelled through the entire Dune series, one after another, and now that the Science Fiction Book Club has their hardcover format Chapterhouse: Dune, I'm going to replace my cheap paperback copy. In a less...

He blasphemes the name of Vallejo! Burn him! BURN HIM!!!

Troll in a Can. What is Troll in a Can, you ask? Why, it's a chunk of troll, sealed inside a resealable can! Feeling hungry, and your group doesn't have Survival ranks or trail rations? Heat up a skillet, crack open your Troll in a Can, and let it regenerate to the thickness you want. Slice it...

It's a friggin' Bat-Hummer! He never used a Bat-Hummer except in DKR. I liked the sleek shape of the Burton Batmobile better than this Bat-Hummer.

Feeling smug about knowing that you're enlightening those who stumble across those pages, I suppose. I've editted tons of comic book and video game pages there already.

Polyhedron had a d20 Hijinx game a couple years ago; it was a d20 System game based on the Hanna-Barbera cartoons, like Scooby Doo and its knockoffs. I played it once, taking the role of the charismatic yet self-absorbed bandleader; his trademark phrase was, "How's my hair?"

Unless you're one of the few people whose organs are mirrored, in which case it would feel like a knife in your left side. I once thought I might have had it, but now I know the pain I felt was nothing compared to what it would have really felt like.

My thought: Yoda vs. Sidious. Sidious starts in (very) high guard. Yoda goes high, rather than going low and taking Sidious off at the knees, leading into a prolonged battle that causes massive collateral damage and nearly kills Yoda.

Earrings of Alter Self These gold studs pierce the earlobes (dealing 1 point of damage each if the ears are not already pierced), and allow the wearer to change her form as per alter self, except the creator of the earrings specifies the form, and the change lasts as long as both earrings are...

My DM uses Yuzzem for just about any Large creature we encounter; last week, two Yuzzem stood in for Hezrou.

First-level starting gold can be found at the end of the class entry for whatever class you're using; higher-level starting gold (levels 2-20) are in the Dungeon Master's Guide, and epic-level (21-40) are later in the DMG.

I drew on Blue Öyster Cult for names for several Ravenloft characters. The Divine Wind was Joseph Bouchard, priest of Saint Cecilia, former ally of the Flaming Telepaths against the Great Sun Jester. Eric Bloom, the son of Buck and Dharma Bloom, is a character whose sheet I've lost. I also...

I loved that exchange: "I'm the Doctor, by the way." "Rose." "Nice to meet you, Rose. Run for your life!" I also liked that I didn't need to know anything about the series beforehand to get into it.

Can't forget the dreaded Darth Odd, and his apprentices, Lord Byron and Lord Pestilence, Death, And Fire Ants.

I saw a 16th-level character take a hit from an orbital bombardment. He went from full to -118 in one shot.

I built a Ravenloft domain out of the Eagles's "Hotel California." I used a lot of Blue Öyster Cult references in other Ravenloft material (the Dragon Lady and another domain that uses elements from "Harvest Moon"). I'm thinking about incorporating more BÖC "homage" into the campaign world I'm...

In their fight, Joker ended up dead.

"Undead," as a classification, means a corpse, clinically dead, that is animated by either the lingering consciousness of the person, necromantic magic, or the force of a higher power. Spawn and Deadman are the only "good guys" who have their deaths as part of their origin. They fit the undead...
