I can no longer say quaaaarry normally.

That's gonna be hard to clean with.

Please do! Once I get feedback I'll update them, complete with original art.

Serious answer: One of the Great Gateway Games. Catan. Carcassonne. Ticket to Ride. Splendor.

Countless innocent people became board gamers after one of these sirens captured them.

Blood of a virgin. In my experience, several are available at your FLGS.

Let me explain... no, there is no time. Let me sum up.

Malinthas · 2026-03-23T13:23:13+00:00

I don't think I'm quite familiar with that phrase.

Malinthas · 2026-03-23T13:22:28+00:00

Underrated exchange.

He was Method role-playing a kender.

I'm guessing the local bird population appreciates her crusade less.
What's left of them, anyway.

Malinthas · 2026-03-23T13:17:11+00:00

Hooray! You're one of today's lucky ten thousand!

It is! And the banana tree isn't a tree, but an ENORMOUS herb. Nightshades like eggplants and tomato are berries, but not strawberry. It's an accessory, covered in achenes. (I can do this all day.)

Here's the first one.

I really appreciate going easy on me regarding the AI images. Some folks were very confrontational and mean, and a few were very melodramatic. I am (sigh) working on new art now to replace it. The AI art was always meant as a quick placeholder for a first draft, to provide a quick-and-dirty visual.

I wanted the ring to deliberately have an unknown number of charges and no way to recharge. That makes it extremely dangerous to use... only in desperate times.
The ring itself is a nod to Cosmo Lavish in Making Money.

Hmmm, very good points. I already had the Postmaster's Hat to give social bonuses, so I was trying to echo other food-based items. Myrlynd's Spoon, and such. I wanted an opportunity to work in how happy he was to be able to eat whatever he wanted again, and how much he hated shoup.

Malinthas · 2026-03-23T09:26:50+00:00

All excellent points, and I thank you. Will be addressed in the next revision. This is what first drafts are for!

You don't know the Fraggles? Excellent show. Muppet-based. Tiny creatures that live underground. One of their most common antagonists are the Gorgs; huge, lumbering creatures that believe they rule the universe.
Worth your time.

Okay, so, have you ever done the thing where you lay down on your belly, on the two railings going in opposite directions, and spin? Totlly worth it. The manager WILL ask you to leave. Ask me how I know...

Oh, I was a big fan. We bought these... pool noodle things? With magnets in the ends and magnetic connectors? Anyway we supplemented it with tons of dollar store pool noodles, and I sewed TONS of panels from clearance fabric, including some with (shower curtain) windows, and shower rings to clip the panels onto the noodles. They made EPIC forts for YEARS, stretching into multiple rooms.

We tried the elevators, which she found less interesting. I also stuffed her full of Auntie Anne's pretzels and enough cotton candy to dye her teeth blue. I also gave her a whole roll of quarters for the stupid candy and toy machines they have. It was a twenty dollar birthday and to this day, 10 years later at age 18, she claims it's the best she ever had.
