It’s a grey, rainy No Bad News Thursday in the Land Behind the Zion Curtain. WHEEE!
Last night was the first D&D 4.0 game that I’ve been able to attend in the past… three, I think… weeks. And when I arrived, it was without my character. This was a fact that I didn’t recognize until I’d walked in the door and thought “Shouldn’t I have something else?”
*grblsnrkx*
Yep. Genius move on my part. So, I got to play the part of one of the NPCs. An evil NPC, at that. I believe that it was the first time in all the years I’ve played D&D that I’ve actually played a character with an evil alignment. And, it was fun. I think that I caught a couple of my party member when I… kind of… started a fight with a bunch of guys because my character didn’t like his attitude. (We won the fight, though.) Partway through the game, I had an apostrophe epiphany: My character might actually be in my car, not at home… so I went and checked. Lo and behold, there it was.
::: facepalm :::
So, I went and got it. I played both characters for a few turns, until the NPC left the game. (His story arc was done, I didn’t get him killed.) It was a good game session.
Stray Toasters
- I’m contemplating running walking a 5K this weekend: Running of the Leopards. The two mitigating factors for me are:
- Weather
- If I can find a walking partner.
- Smithsonian. Historically Hardcore.
- Long-lost Frederic Chopin letters recovered by museum
- Bearing Witness Beyond the Witnesses
- I’ve had four, count ’em… FOUR… meetings today. Before lunch.
- Gadgets You Should Get Rid Of (or Not)
- Posting “not-so-great” news about this guy might not win me any fans among the BYU crowd, considering how… revered… he is in this neck of the woods. Oh, well, here it is anyway: N.B.A. Scouting Report on Fredette: Good but Not Great
- The new – full – trailer for the upcoming Captain America movie has finally been released:
