    Off topic- but one of my fav characters from the Mahabharatha is Karna - read it here: http://www.geocities.com/neovedanta/mahabharata7.html Talk about tragic anti heros. If anyone has the chance to get their hands on DVDs of the Indian TV series on "The Mahabharata" you should do so. Even...

    D&D in India ?

    When a great session goes awry.
