OLD News

An open letter to everyone, everywhere.

If you can’t be bothered to capitalize and punctuate, I can’t be bothered to try to read whatever it is you’re trying to say.

Sincerely, me.

A porn actor, who was accused of killing a coworker with a sword, died after falling off a cliff Saturday when police used a stun gun to subdue him.

You really, really can’t make this stuff up. Even on the off chance you could actually come up with the idea, no reader would buy it.

*shakes head*

Holy crap, Lolth is nasty in 4E! 😯

Dungeons & Dragons Roleplaying Game Official Home Page – Article (Lolth)

Just as a sample, I give you:

Dominating Rebuke (charm) * At-Will

Trigger: An enemy hits Lolth.

Effect (Immediate Reaction): The triggering enemy is dominated until the end of the enemy’s next turn.

(Any group that missed or ignores the "one immediate action/round" rule is going to die of apoplexy…) 😉

…sitting around watching old Justice League cartoons and trying to figure out which role (controller, defender, leader, or striker) each character would fill in a 4E D&D game.

I wish I was making this up.

It’s been a while since I’ve foisted new reviews for The Conqueror’s Shadow on you. So I figure I’m due. 😉

From the Saturday Serial blog.

From Alec Austin’s blog. (This entry also includes his ruminations on several other books, and on his tastes in fiction in general.)

And, most interestingly, from NewsOK, which is an actual online news site and not a sci-fi/fantasy-specific hub. Always cool to get reviewed in something that borders on the mainstream.
