[QUOTE="molepunch, post: 5746214, member: 6683467"] Hi all, While I'm still passionate about DMing, I've been getting lazier and lazier in copying down monster stat blocks into my DM notes. Sometimes, I keep flipping back and forth between the pages in the Monster Manual bookmarked by index cards. Am I the only one here? I just can't be arsed to jot all the abilities down anymore.
