lightning bolts are cool
fireballs can start farther out
Both can be fun zaps

Blackguard pet of choice
Who says size does not matter
Fiendish dire tiger

"The Evil DM"

Rogue misses the trap
I declare thief Blackleaf dead
Jack Chick -- rat bastard

Infernal Dire Sparrow

Ok. Here goes my feeble attempt. I thought this was funny though

Big ugly sparrow
Flaming, smokey, and evil
Peck out not my eyes!

Joe Too Old

Here's the solution to my "puzzle haiku" posted earlier. I'll make the solution "black letters on a black background" so you can't read it by accident if you still want to figure it out yourself. And congratulations to darkbard who figured it out right away!

For those tuning in late, here's the puzzle haiku again:

Puzzle hidden now
To decipher: all end place
Character symbols

And here's the solution:

The phrase "all end place character symbols" is a clunky way to refer to "the last letter in each word." It might help if I lined them up this way:

-----PUZZLE
-----HIDDEN
--------NOW
----------TO
---DECIPHER
---------ALL
---------END
-------PLACE
-CHARACTER
----SYMBOLS

Thus, taking the last letter from every word in the haiku, we get the word "ENWorlders" (okay, technically not a word you'd find in the dictionary, but still).

Autumn afternoon
sees a light gust of wind play
with our characters.

The washington post has a sunday style section feature called haiku as autobiography, but it annoys me because they are not haikus but short paragraphs that goes way over 17 syllables.

So here is my autobiography haiku:

Husband, journalist
In the summer of my life
Dog-owner, gamer

And here are some general D&D haiku:

Will do game reviews
In-depth, analytical
For free pdfs

I am listed in
Relics and Rituals II
As an author, yay

Arcane Creations
I wrote a book on magic
Revisions to come

Twenty years gaming
As both DM and player
D&D for life

I run rough games
Harsh but fair, roommate died thrice
Players ever on edge

Ravenloft tonight
Fear and horror blanket all
Intense but real fun

"They’re only kobolds"
Uttered famous last words
As they enter tunnels

Ok folks, it's November 2nd and that means that the polls are now officially closed.

I have mixed up my first hi-ball, and the judging will begin shortly.

I want to, again, thank everyone for thir participation. The quantity and quality of entries is so far beyojd what I was expecting, that I now wish I had broken the batches of Adventures up into smaller "prize packages" so as to better reward the entrants

But four luxurious prize packages were promised, and four it shall be.

There will be a lot of honorable mentions though.

Thanks again for your enthusiasm. This really is the best D&D community on the net.
