    D&D General Character named after someone more famous.

    In a beloved by me at least 3e campaign I named one NPC “Dr. Mephisophocles” after, well, Sophocles and Mephistopheles and another NPC “The Right Reverend Don Magic Wand” after a pimp friend of Snoop Dogg named Don Magic Juan. Do either of those count?

    D&D General Should D&D Be "Hard"

    There’s no answering this outside of individual group preferences. Or definitions of what constitutes a difficult challenge. Or what abilities are even being challenged. For example, most of my games feature an element of friendly competition over making the most amusing character.

    Where to find Morrus, EN World, & EN Publishing

    The signup page still has a big modal box saying "Join Twitter today" (with a little X above that). When you close it, you get taken to the X splash page. I totally would trust this team with my financial transactions. Or my Mars colony.

    Where to find Morrus, EN World, & EN Publishing

    He can name the parent company any letter he likes, but Twitter is also the brand. Rebranding one of the most recognized global brands on a whim seems... ill-advised. Or advised by too many rails of cocaine.

    Good Lord that was entertaining. I think the attention to character made it more than just fan service. I really want some live-action Lower Decks now.

    I thought you were going to post a clip from Buffy’s “Once More, With Feeling”. That’s the high-water mark for this sort of thing, isn’t it?

    Past a certain point, style is substance. Every set of rules for good worldbuilding is wrong.

    It's like they've inverted the classic TNG structure. The character development 'B' plot is now the focus. It really works for this show.

    The Last Jedi is the 2nd best... ... whoops wrong subform. Ahem, system matters to a different degree among gamers. For some system doesn't matter much at all.

    What is your gaming white whale?

    Maybe a Star Trek game? It's dearer to my heart than any fantasy fiction, or other science fiction truth be told. Wait... that's why I haven't run a Star Trek game!

    I... I can't believe I'm going to say this, but I would be okay with a reboot of TOS with Paul Wesley's Kirk. The main problem I'd have is I'd want to keep Ortegas, La'an, and Dr. M'Benga around. Maybe end it right before the salt vampire. Or what the hell, rewrite fake history and end it with...
