    TSR The Full & Glorious History of NuTSR

    Eh. I think this whole episode will get at least one main text paragraph in the Wizards section of Designers and Dragons: The Twenties.

    Erik Pelletier Born in Ottawa but raised all over the world as the son of a member of the Canadian foreign service, Erik Pelletier was recruited by Argus not long after his university graduation.

    Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special (spoilers allowed)

    Unfortunately, both of those two had been announced as being in development for more than a year before they were released, and nothing has yet been announced about the next one, so it's probably going to be at least that long before we get more.

    Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special (spoilers allowed)

    They only list him as the voice of Groot on IMDB, and there's no mention of any cast member playing him physically. Since they had a CGI Rocket in a few scenes ... <shrugs>

    Level Up (A5E) Create or destroy Water creates nonpotable water. Does purify food and drink make that water potable?

    Basically, then, purify food and water is somewhat misnamed -- it should be called something like neutralize poison. <grins, ducks and runs>

    Level Up (A5E) Create or destroy Water creates nonpotable water. Does purify food and drink make that water potable?

    I would say no on the basis that whatever is making the water non-potable -- salt, or possibly silt -- is not a poison or a disease, just a natural contaminant that makes the water dangerous to drink. Semi-ninja'd.

    D&D General Choose 3 to protect you

    The level 20 party, the solars and the nilbogs. My reasons are my own.

    Mechano (II) Actual form. Disguise form. For Alexander McGovern, the loss of the guardian force was something of a mixed blessing. While he regrets losing the enhancement of his already great intellect, he takes comfort in the fact that his thoughts are now once more only his own, rather than...

    WotC WotC needs an Elon Musk

    It's clickbait. Particularly egregious clickbait, given that the OP has since stated that they didn't mean it literally.

    Metal Knight Masked Unmasked Sixty years* ago, as the Imperium transformed into the Crimson Imperium, Bohrs Stannim was a novice student of one of the mystic guardians of the Senate, barely out of his adolescence. He was no match for the Grand Inquisitor, and knew it, but hoped to spend his...

    Adradius the All-Traitor Long ago -- so long ago that it might as well have been a different world completely -- there lived a skilled and ambitious warrior. Like many of his ilk, he had made a pact with one of the Ascendants who existed in that time, who granted him power in exchange for his...

    Star Wars: Andor

    He seemed genuinely surprised to be accused of this, so while I suspect he is gambling, he isn't doing it enough that she needs to cover it up with the money she's getting from Davo. Mostly disinfo, then.

    Kusho/空所 Next to nothing is known about the life of the current occupant of the House of the Pig prior to 2015, when he joined Devlin & Sons Traveling Carnival as a member of its road crew. He claimed his name to be Masuo Oyama -- which was a rather blatant lie -- and was obviously of Japanese...
