And again -- what makes you think that whoever answers the phone is telling the truth about their identity?

Good question, one that could create lots of potential adventures. Counterpoint: How does a cleric in a god-filled game know that the entity answering the phone is the entity they worship? What if the entity answering is revealing the truth in a way that serves their interests rather than yours...

Gosh, we wouldn't want to do anything hard. Wouldn't want to put any effort in. It's really best to stay in our comfort zone and never venture outside of it. Here, have some crayons.

Tried that. Found it unappetizing, but I believe that was due to some of the filling. The chicken itself was delicious.

Perhaps your experience is overly narrow. And, notably, dumps all the responsibility for developing this aspect of the character's background on the player, accepting none of it for yourself as the GM. And overlooks the possibility of having mortal authorities influence the player character, and...

Oh you're a cleric of "Pelor"? What does that mean? "Well, I means that I use this particular holy symbol while murder hoboing my way through your campaign, never once considering the implications of my faith or religion while still getting to have all those juicy spells." Bad role-playing can...

Eh, sort of. In her first run, Jen was basically the Hulk made fan-servicey -- she'd turn into the She-Hulk whenever stressed and run amok, usually thwarting villainous schemes in the process. Then she got control over the transformations, was inducted into the Avengers and given a bit more...

Since I remember a version of D&D (Mentzer Basic) which explicitly stated that a cleric's powers came from the strength of their beliefs, not any external entities, and described deities as optional, I find this entire discussion somewhat amusing.

Then let us be weird together! (Boston Pizza, in our neck of the woods, sometimes offers something called a Pizza Burger, which doesn't quite look like this.)

<does research> I think that the last comic book series based on a live action comedic property* would be the Saved by the Bell comics produced by Harvey in 1992-3. The heyday of this would have been ten-to-fifteen years before this, when there were adaptations of Welcome Back Kotter and Happy...

Per the Wayback Machine, the website assumed its current format around the start of May, this year. It became a storefront sometime late in December, 2021.

Y'know, I loved Lloyd Alexander's writing, but the influence of his work really irritates me sometimes ...

I believe that the only time they were used in an official adventure was the notorious Castle Greyhawk joke dungeon, where they appear in a list of monsters thought dumb. As @Celebrim notes, there are people pretending to be undead in Terrible Trouble at Tragidore, but the term pseudo-undead is...

I look forward to that; the tome is well outside my price range, but I am interested in its contents.

Car Caspian On the planet Dacksen, one of the countless gleaming worlds of what had once been an Imperium that had been seized by Earth-descended humans by the twenty-eighth century, the scientific elite determined that the most efficient military that they could create would be a small...

Just an update -- this is now available from DriveThru.

For a certain value of local.

Weena hit him with her dartgun and put him out, but didn't harm him any further. However, the humiliation of collapsing like that in front of the peasantry, as well as having his earlier cowardice exposed, resulted in him fleeing town, and he ended up getting killed on the road.
