The intro adventure/chargen that takes up much of the first book was brilliant, good design, and the first DCC style character funnel IMO.
Great game that. Loads better than 2020 in my highly jaded opinion.

The crone will return to stirring her cauldron now. boo.

And this one with an Edmontosaurus is from 2013.

It was commissioned by the science faculty of the University of Alberta as their Christmas card that year. In the event, they didn't reproduce the image in full but cropped it heavily, losing much of the composition and its various elements.

I spent a good chunk of my life living at or near poverty. I learned a lot from those experiences, like helping those in need actually helps build them tf up. The majority of folks just want to do more than simply survive. They want fucking stability to live.

Incorrect - Jack Nicholson, an actor, knows more about foreign policy, politics, and basic human interaction beyond the feloniously criminal than Hegseth ever will in this life.

There is little that is more dire, more desperate, or more depraved than a middle aged magic halfling on a drug bender.

Just an untested idea but maybe a WiP account for stuff in progress and general doodling?

Might be too much of a pain (multiple accounts always are for me!) but I thought the idea might be useful to share.

Some works, especially fiction (and poetry, IMO), require an adherence to rules of style and form unique to that work. An Elmore Leonard book married to proper usage would feel weird.
A non-fiction work about trains would feel strange without proper usage.
Go with what works for the story.

Very dynamic posing! We dig her a lot. :)
Also! Slings were used in ancient warfare quite effectively so the Tactical Slingshot is a super nifty idea.
