I'm not talking about the TSR museum, but his Museum of the Bizarre. It's located in an old metal works building in Wilmington.

I experienced it with FR specifically. My players were all a bit too overly invested in the FR novels. I have no doubt that DL would suffer from similar issues, though (luckily, only one of my players was a die-hard fan of the DL novels).

In my experience, it was the TSR novel lines. Like, those novels aside, I've never met a single player who read more than a few pages of a campaign setting guide (unless they were a GM). But woe be the to the GM who didn't slavishly adhere to canon established in those novels. I hated this side...

The guy will always be chasing the next grift. It's who he is.

I think I saw somewhere that he was trying to turn his museum into a tax shelter by having the building declared a historical landmark (it is old, but as far as I can tell it's not historically significant).

Holmes Basic D&D, but we played it as part of a school-sponsored gifted education program, so it was more a tool for teaching teamwork and creative problem solving rather than being used to run a campaign in the traditional sense.

Hell Comes to Bogtown. I plan to run it using A Minimalist Fantasy Affair after the holidays.

At least one of the big ones (OSE Classic) is going away, so this new edition of Labyrinth Lord may yet find an audience.

It;s a TV quote, but this tops my list of all-time favorite quotes: "Don’t you ever try that again, that’s how people get store bought teeth." ~ Joe Mannix

I'd get Duncan Regehr back in the game! The most menacing vampire/Dracula ever to hit movie screens!* I mean, hey, he almost murders a child on screen (and also calls her a very naughty word). *Jerry Dandrige from the original Fright Night comes in a very close second.

Kind of. I'm an American and I do things on Thanksgiving, but we don't celebrate any of the usual colonialism tied to the holiday. It's really just an excuse for my aunt, uncle, and myself to go out for a nice meal.

I don't play a lot of video games anymore because my untreated ADHD is off the charts, but I've been playing a bit of Wildermyth every now and again and really enjoying it.

This would probably be my favorite, as well. It's a well-established folkloric creature and I'm a stupid huge fan of The Lair of The White Worm.

ENWorld, although begun as a D&D-only discussion site, has matured into the best general RPG discussion and news site online, IMO. Whether it be for D&D or other RPGs, ENWorld is often the first site to publish breaking news and vets it better than pretty much all other RPG discussion sites...

I've played a Warlock who was famously a coward, running from combat whenever things began to look grim for the party. Like a hero!
