[QUOTE="El Mahdi, post: 5812062, member: 59506"] [b]The Monster Math.[/b] [CENTER]I was working in the D&D lab one night with tired eyes and bleary sight. When from my mind an idea began to rise of giving monsters back the element of surprise. (We made New Math!) We made New Monster Math! (New Monster Math!) It was a DDI Smash! (We made New Math!) We posted it in a Flash! (We made New Math!) We made New Monster Math! From the lab of the Wizards out West to the dank crypts where the Vampires rest. Now ghouls no longer cower in their hovels they've all gotten a jolt from our new numerals (We made New Math!) We made New Monster Math! (New Monster Math!) It was a DDI Smash! (We made New Math!) We posted it in a Flash! (We made New Math!) We made New Monster Math! The Zombies again are having fun, and the party's just begun. The guests included Demons, Devils, and Cambions Grells, and Grimlocks, and Guardians. The place was rockin', all were diggin' the new math found even a Pit Fiend backed by Hell Hounds. The Player Characters were about to arrive, in the castle we're calling them the "Sacrificial Five"! (We made New Math!) We made New Monster Math! (New Monster Math!) It was a DDI Smash! (We made New Math!) We posted it in a Flash! (We made New Math!) We made New Monster Math! Out from his coffin Strahd's voice did ring Seems he was troubled by just one thing He opened the lid and shook his fist and said, "whatever happened to my Thac0 list?" (We made New Math!) We made New Monster Math! (New Monster Math!) It was a DDI Smash! (We made New Math!) We posted it in a Flash! (We made New Math!) We made New Monster Math! Now everything's cool, Strahd's part of the band as the New Monster Math sweeps across the land. For you, the living, this math was meant too when you arrive at hells door, you can blame it on the math (boo hoo). (We made New Math!) We made New Monster Math! (New Monster Math!) It was a DDI Smash! (We made New Math!) We posted it in a Flash! (We made New Math!) We made New Monster Math! :devil:[/CENTER] [/QUOTE]
