    Hú Lí dances around the edge of the pit, keeping her eyes on the foe the whole time. As she reaches a position next to Kane, the lilting figure she has been playing suddenly is interrupted by a single sforzando note. The uncanny force of the sound sends the ghoul flying backwards, wrenching...

    Yesterday afternoon, I figured how to do a sequel to this. I'm writing it up now, and hope to submit it before I go on vacation. Assuming it's approved, I'll be back on the 14th and can start recruiting then.

    Adventure: Get Me to the Church on Time (DM: BenBrown, Judge: Renau1g)

    Ismene and the other freed captives are soon able to travel. The tent is rolled up (it's really too nice to leave), and everyone takes a share of its contents. Going is slow, as the captives are weakened by their ordeal, and the group has to camp one night before reaching safety. Thais...

    Why Aren't RPGs in Public Libraries?

    People like that should be brought to Gen Con and placed in the pillory and have rotten fruit thrown at them.

    "I doubt there's any of the enemy left in there," Mallaby says, "but you are right to be cautious." Mallaby, Thais, and all the mighty warriors gather around the tent, ready to pounce on any foe that emerges. Thais grasps a tent flap and pulls it open. There are no hobgoblins inside, only three...

    [Adventure] Serpent's Skull: Souls for Smuggler's Shiv (DM: Mewness; Judge: THB)

    Seeing that the thing in the well is dead, Hú Lí turns her attentions to the ghoul which has grabbed Noriaki, and plays an eerie, entrancing, yet somehow familiar tune, of which the creature takes no notice. Nevertheless, Noriaki is heartened somewhat by the music.Standard: Blunder vs. Ghoul...

    Legends and Lore - Nod To Realism

    Exactly. If you're going to treat the battlemat as representational, you're better off not using it at all. (and presumably, therefore, not playing WotC era D&D)

    What makes Dungeons & Dragons "Dungeons & Dragons?"

    1) Dungeons 2) Dragons and neither of those has to show up all the time. Holmes Basic plays entirely different from 4E, and has pretty much nothing in common except the names of some things (classes, races, spells) and the six D&D stats, and yet I'm not going to declare either of them to be...

    Hú Lí dances away from the hideous ghoul, playing a low rhythmic chant, and stepping sideways so that she can see across the pit. Without warning, she pipes a high trill which digs at the life force of the ghoul that Noriaki and Takahaan have been working on. It isn't enough to destroy it, but...
