I think you may be on to something. Looking at the pre-order listing for the movie tie-in gelatinous cube toy from Hasbro, it's branded as being from the "Golden Archive." Not sure whether this is branding for the Hasbro D&D line of toys, a reference to the movie, or both, but it's a short leap...

I don't DM online as I find the format far less enjoyable, but I do DM at conventions (including Gamehole Con; I've probably run into Bill D., above). I'm happy to just be a player in my home campaigns, so I use conventions as my ongoing "DM Academy"--to get more confident and hopefully better...

Marcello's good people! Been DM'd by him quite a few times now. Glad to see his work get some love. I might have to sign up to run this mod at my next con now that I know it's one of his.

Watching the trailer again, I think you're right. It's most evident in the escape-the-guards scene about a minute in. Plus, it might be my imagination, but I think they pitch-shifted her voice a little.

Looks promising; I don't envy the thin line that both the filmmakers and the marketers are going to have to walk with this movie. I hope it works out (for any number of reasons).

This was released as a promo item to coincide with the release of the Adventures in the Forgotten Realms set for Magic: The Gathering last year; it reprints the first chapter of the Essentials Kit. Presumably this was meant to lure some non-RPG-playing Magic players to try D&D out--I grabbed one...

I suspect they are amazing, spectacular, sensational, and possibly friendly-neighborhood.

I'll once again thank you for doing the work in parsing complicated legal proceedings, as so frequently turn up in such an IP-heavy industry. Lord knows I wouldn't have much more than an inkling without having my hand held via these reports.

The worldwide back-up of shipping due to lingering issues from the COVID-19 pandemic (e.g. supply chain slowdowns, skyrocketing materials costs, lack of workers to unload ships, etc.).

Is it because of ceiling poop? It's the ceiling poop, isn't it?

Yeah, I backed the Kickstarter, and it's definitely a neat set-up that speaks to the latent theater nerd in me. I do wish he'd called it something else, as the word "opera" will evoke some inaccurate impressions of what the game is actually about.

Oh, I get it and I sympathize, but I think "Warduck" is an especially good typo.

...Warduck, you say? :unsure: I am intrigued by this battle-ready water fowl for my D&D game and would like to hear more.

Call it "Ravnos" and you can get a Cease & Desist letter from White Wolf.

They uploaded an incomplete image file--it's actually Den of the Bugbear...'s Tarrasque.

What do you suppose "before someone gets hurt" means here?

gets to page 13 of comments ...Man, I need to sit down.

Yup, this is how I know him--I frankly didn't even know he did prose fiction, though his frequent inclusion in these early Dragons have certainly educated me. Relatedly, I assume the "W. Willingham" mentioned is Bill Willingham, who would also go on to have quite a lot of success in the comic...
