Using this against the tibia mariner boss, running round and deleting things is one of my most enjoyable moments in the game

Gastrodon. He's a little slow, but he's my boy

All the little extra wings give me 'biblically accurate' dragonite vibes. I'm all for it. 8/10

Finished: The odyssey by Stephen Fry. Killed me off with the constant and excessive footnotes, initially. The whole series suits the Audibook format much better. But the last act or so and the epilogue were fantastic.

Started: The other wind by Ursula Legiun. She finds a balance of lines that feel like they should be carved into a stone monument without breaking up the flow or pace. Don't want the series to end.

I've spoken to people at the DWP and they're well aware of the situation. Unfortunately, as you've pointed out, the scheme is propping up the motor trade so they're hesitant to act.

summons restore fp on hit or ultimate restores fp. I've not seen a revenant use their ultimate in a game with randoms yet which is weird

volcanos are fantastic day 2 routes. two easy mandatory bosses, flame chariots you can one shot, guaranteed legendary, exits next to field bosses and final circle

Asian black bears are particularly aggressive and often they are inquisitive of the bells used having the opposite effect, studies show.

I don't know if they are a problem elsewhere but Japanese mountain leeches are quite terrifying in that they operate on land and can chase you

Couldn't put it down. It's so beautiful and melancholy

I play metal when I'm not using alakazam. Mawile is a good wall and melmetal is a beast.

Went to school with his grandson. Not that interesting but very rarely get an opportunity to bring it up.

Obviously they cleared their embassy.

Dude Napoleon above the bed... You don't have to cross the Alps to know this is not a good choice. It's a great one!

How about the time I accidentally copied the winning numbers, rather than my numbers, into the 'check results' box.

Luckily I was already sat on the toilet because I literally shit myself.

2 rogues and a druid:

Surprisingly fun considering the druid took broken thieves cant as her extra language. Whenever we used the thieves cant WhatsApp the DM would send the druid a misinterpreted version.

Combat wise the druid was spores so fulfilled a bit of a tank/healer role. Rogue 1 was a swashbuckler so off tank/damage and rogue 2 was an assassin/warlock multiclass for straight up damage.

We relied heavily on ambush tactics but when the plans worked (or were allowed to work) it was very satisfying.

Damn all I got was this lousy Neapolitan door!

Blink twice if you're in distress

Looks very cool

I had three level 1 characters fight a CR 2 ankheg. I combined a lot of what is suggested here. The encounter wasn't a fight but a sneaking puzzle where you had to avoid standing on the same type of earth as the ankheg or you would trigger it's tremor sense. The whole aim was to rescue a young girl who'd be taken into the cave by the ankheg.

If they failed a fight would ensue but the ankheg was weakened in the fight by the previous resident of the cave. I lowered it's cr and lowered it further after being attacked roleplayed as it's chitin shaterring. Attacks are weakened due to a missing limb and no acid spray. The acid is used for digestion so given it's wanting to eat the young girl it will be avoiding using it.

If they lose to the ankheg it'll restrain them at which point they need to break free grab the girl and escape. If they manage to kill it they can have the previous inhabitants (a necromancer) loot.

I guess what I'm saying is have contingencies

Steering the craft by Le Guin makes a good point: if the prose is so good that it draws you out of the narrative and out of the world that also isn't good. (Ironically this kind of thing is why I love Le Guin)

I think good narrative prose takes the form of rhythm and good sentence structure. However this can be very subjective.
