All manner of scifi/fantasy/nerdness: Roleplaying, comic books, .... okay, so mainly just RPGs & comic books. And Dr. Who. And Firefly. And comic books. And role-playing games. And Community. And Buffy the Vampire Slayer. And comic books. And RPGs. And Avengers. And RPGS. And whatever else amuses me today...
Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
My brain never left band. I’ve arranged my dice like an orchestra…. #dice #rainbow #dnd
It’s really bugging me that the d10s on the second row, right side, aren’t 10-side up.
You have to be the world’s biggest nerd and strangely arrogant about it. You have to be so proud of how smart and logical you are…I tried to Dungeon Master—I was terrible. It was the worst…You can’t be a good Dungeon Master if you’re worried about doing a good job as a Dungeon Master.

I’m rollin’ 20s like a ‘68 Impala
Your AC doesn’t matter, critical damage from my WAR HAMMER!
I throw the big 2-0 against every single foe
They’re crushed by the force of my mighty blows,
I lay ‘em low, yes I lay ‘em low!
You know you’re a nerd when…
You have to be talked into going on a date night instead of playing D&D.
Forget that. D&D makes a GREAT date night.
Final three in the set. :) Then all of them!
My latest D&D Session in a nutshell
Player: I want to play a rogue!
Me: Okay
Player: I'm going to put 4 points into bluff, 4 into sneak, and 4 into move silently!
Me: Cool
The game starts
Me: You see a guard, what do you do?
Player: PUNCH HIM IN THE FACE!
Needless to say, this didn't end well.
so my dad was a DM back in the day and because i’m about to DM for the first time ever i told him a few things about the campaign i’m writing and he literally just tore the whole thing down. he told me what to do instead, and then went out to buy me two fantasy books.
i’m not allowed to work on it anymore until i finish the books.
I’ve never understood people who said that the Dungeons and Dragons cartoon wasn’t true to the game.
You have a party of people who barely get along and have weapons and skills they don’t know how to use.
They go on quests that don’t make sense and are pursued by a villain whose only goal *is* pursuing them.
And, they are “helper” by a Dungeon Master who never explains what’s going on.
Sounds about right to me…
Love it.
See, this is why I can’t really get excited about D&D movies. They miss the point of D&D and resort to “generic fantasy setting X with plot Y.” The cartoon was spot-on about what d&d is: a wacky group of friends constantly in over the heads but eager to see just how deep it can get.
