The two definitive sources for this sort of pastiche, in my mind: · Disney's Gargoyles · The Almanac in the back of The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen: Volume 2

...I have to admit that it's more complex than that, and what it really usually means, depending on how insecure the person is, is, "Am I really attractive/desirable/lovable?" "Fat" is just the beginning domino for not attractive -> not desirable -> not lovable.

...while we're on the subject of Asperger's Syndrome and romance. I used to know this one girl who had Asperger's Syndrome but managed to successfully flirt with and pick up other girls really really easily. So I asked her what her secret was, and she said that what she'd done was create a...

Jdvn1 could certainly use a forehead...

Y'know, personally I think that an adorable and sweet-looking elven girl who also happens to be Pure Evil has always been a really cool villain idea. Just think of the benefits you get! But that's just me.

Which clearly means that I win! [cheers]

Yeah, when I said he was looking over my shoulder, I meant literally looking over my shoulder with my laptop in my lap. What did you think? >.> And should I ask what a GoF is?

...wow. Y'know, Jdvn1 and I were sitting in my living room and I was like, "There's nothing going on on EN World," and he's like, "Oh? Check the Hive. I bet you something was posted within the last fifteen minutes." And so we check and he's like, "Whoa, an hour and a half? Okay, just post...

With Jdvn1 looking over my shoulder: Hello, Hive'.

Eberron. I say this largely because of the ways in which the D&D 3.5 rules have been applied in such a way as to actually shape the campaign world itself -- e.g., Dragonmarks, magic item creation, etc. For showcasing what the RAW can do for you, it does a very good job.

I like Stephen Colbert because he reminds me a lot of Phil Hartman -- huge screen presence, the ability to turn virtually anything into a laugh, yet simultaneously having a strangely dignified presence that can turn something ridiculous into something plausible. NewsRadio should've hired him in...

I prefer Eberron, but what about with a Spanish twist? Eberrón. Sounds good, dunnit?

Just a note from someone who's dated at least one person confirmed with Asperger's Syndrome, and likely a second unconfirmed -- the biggest problem I've had is feeling as if I'm actually loved and appreciated, and as if the girl I was dating had some actual interest in who I am and my life...

"Unlike doppelgangers, which are entirely genderless, a changeling does have a default gender that manifests in adolescence, but each changeling can adapt his or her form to be of either gender, hermaphroditic (both genders simultaneously), or entirely genderless." (Races of Eberron 45) Note...

Alyra Tannenbaum, Marchessa of Innocence "I think," says Alyra with the best grace she can muster, "it might be best to speak to the lady first."

I've played in games where people insist that this is true. Bugs the heck out of me, mostly because I have to point out that AC is a DC and thus there is no concept of a "tie," as in an opposed roll. I just go with highest ability score, though -- it's consistent with the way Initiative is...

The way I play it in my Eberron game is a lot like the way JimAde describes it -- for wizards, spell research isn't spell creation, but spell discovery. Think of an archaeologist digging through an excavation for an artifact, and that is roughly the scope of spell research. It's searching for...

Oh, and: Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials trilogy, which is currently totally enrapturing me.

The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, with Alan Moore-written notes on each era which successfully fuse all of the disparate literary works regarding the age together.

And I thought it was related somehow to pon farr.
