    D&D General Drow as in Cow or Drow as in Snow: Where did the Dark Elves Come From?

    Of course…and why the females were larger…and their skin was shiny pitch black. That is what they became anyway. I don’t know at what point black widows entered the design space…have not read the histories.

    D&D General Muscular Neutrality (thought experiment)

    I was in grad school some yesteryear and had not been eating well… And near passing out my buddy said order this breakfast at Denny’s….Ask for double the meat! I did! And this week I started a med for cholesterol! I think this argues against entropy and for a very strongly lawful neutral...

    D&D General Muscular Neutrality (thought experiment)

    I think th dynamic was tension for most people in the real world is about self vs other. Some animals are lone hunters and are independent. Social animals are different in many cases. While a lone human might survive, our developmental dependence is long. And once established we hunt and...

    Positivity: What I'm doing to combat sexism in TTRPGs

    I am not doing much for the community at large. But I play with my kids which includes daughters. They are powerful and heroic or not…but never “less than” or have less variety of options due to being female. the main powerful threat in their campaign happens to be a female figure…but if they...

    How to Tell a Player, "No"?

    My first thought is this is stupid as naughty word. Then I remind myself I let my kid play an intelligent fruit person. Turns out she has wings and likes to magically make cupcakes. Amazingly fairy fits fine and and goodberry…I mean good cakes works just fine for her plant based ranger. But this is...

    D&D General Just sweeping dirty dishes under the rug: D&D, Sexism, and the '70s

    I really don’t have a problem with the topic of sexism per se. Because of course sexism was a thing. How is that a new understanding? I was a kid playing in the 80s and I certainly heard, probably laughed at sexist jokes or statements that were openly made. I would not do it now. Why...

    D&D General Changing subclasses mid-campaign (or even classes)

    I like to stay close to rules, generally. But I was playing a cleric of wee Jas with the death domain. My character has a chip on shoulder and he flunked out of a wizard academy. He is lawful neutral. After a few levels it seemed to make more sense to be an arcana cleric. It was a seamless...

    The older i get the less I need.

    I find my biggest issue is time. As I get older have less I can use of the amount that is left. I have a high responsibility job. I can basically buy whatever gaming stuff I want… But what good is that if you can’t use it? The other thing related to it all is drive. My work and...

    Keep it up dudes! I am playing shooters here and there and holding my own… My main new stimulation is learning more crafting with foam…my dungeon has grown…been magnetizing it etc and learning along the way… I just can’t allocate the time to learn new strategy games. In truth, I feel like I...

    The older i get the less I need.

    My hobbies have been RPGs…mostly D&D…minis, boardgames and to much lesser extent video games. I quit playing paintball close to 20 years ago. I have a lot of stuff. In my main game play area I have glass cases full of minis. My game table is full in its storage space of 1eAD&D modules I...

    I am very attached to my mini collection… But for a monumental birthday, my friend got me a deities and demigods with Elric and cthulu…2nd printing maybe? Then he took it to Gary con and Erol Otus signed it! It’s a fave now of course! I played in secret during the satanic panic and would...
