What's a fane and what would you do with it if you had one? [humor?]

[Pielorinho]

you DO know what a fane is, right?

It's where Extra Terrestrials live, right? ET Fane Home?

Actually, I think The Bard said it best. IIRC, He didn't really think much of fanes.


Juliet
O Tiefling, Tiefling, wherefore art thou Tiefling?
Deny thy goddess and refuse her fane,
Or if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love,
And I'll no longer be a Selunite.

Romeo, the Tiefling [aside]
Shall I hear more, or shall I speak at this?

Juliet
'Tis but thy fane that is my enemy.
Thou art thyself, though not of Shar's fane.
What's in a fane? It is nor hand, nor foot,
Nor arm, nor face, nor any other part
Belonging to a man. O, be not of Her fane!
What's in a fane? The foulness of Shar could
in some other temple be turned to light.
So my Tiefling would, were he not Tiefling called,
Retain that dear perfection which he owes
Without that title. Tiefling, doff thy fane,
And for thy fane - which is no part of thee -
Take all myself.

I laughed all the way through this thread.

Well, Monte, I hope it wasn't Irresistable Laughter! Hahahahahahahaha!

It really is a funny word though. I can't quite explain why.

You may have a spiffy lair
Or a spanky new domain,
But you really ain't got ****
If you don't got a FANE!

I could do this all day.

I picture a demon in his fane, sipping some blood from a human skull. In bursts a Paladin who starts swinging his holy sword at the indignant demon:

Demon: [Lebowski] Hey man! There's a beverage here! [/Lebowski]

Maerdwyn, my wife has just informed me that you're her new hero - and with good reason.

If you want something other than your new Community Supporter title, just let me know!

Thanks PC, and everyone else, for participating in this homage to that most amusing and archaic of "temple" synonyms, that fine fodder for fantastic and farsical frivolity: the Fane!

Too much beer or coffee last night. That should have been Hideous Laughter.

Here is what happened to me when I found out I had a fane:
