Imagine an artifact that imagines itself a network. An information network, if you will. At first it draws together the voices of the outsider, the dispossessed, the obsessed. It amplifies and directs those voices through channels that would never have been allowed to exist before the forging of...

Ah the details are probably too political for ENWorld. Maybe I will get away with saying that a Black british comedian recently made a few jokes about the transition to the new Doctor that hit hard.

I think this is the undermining cherry on the undermining cake. Bringing Tennant back was obviously necessary to breathe life back into the show before launching Gatwa, but it does smack of problematics. If they bring back the Master for the Gatwa run I'd love if they went back to the "monster...

OG Greyhawk, Cerilia, Lankhmar, RQ's "Mythic Earth".

I love high level play, by which I mean 14+. And I don't just mean with older editions but also with 5e. High level play takes D&D and pushes it out towards the event horizon. It's a chance to take things beyond what normally constitutes a D&D game. It isn't about dungeons, it isn't even about...

In my Greyhawk campaign there are three main drow sub-cultures. Those that worship the Elemental Eye are the extremist always-evil-hate-all-life drow. Those that worship Lolth just want to be left alone to play emo-rulers of the underdark, farm spiders and wear fabulous silk creations. The third...

Vincent D'Onofrio's Kingpin is legit the only thing that peaks above RDJ's 2008 Iron Man and the early CA/Avengers movies on my Marvel Nerdometer.

Yes. You ever see what a .44 Magnum does to a superhero franchise?

I once played a character with the full name and title of "Gif the Giff and his Hippogryph".

My first edition books. Sold them off when I was a poor student and have regretted it ever since. Honourable mention goes to Over the Edge Second Edition.

Halaster's End of History.

My D&D settings books based on music videos from the 1980s will be available soon. This town? Is looking like a Ghost Town. Because Bustin Makes Me Feel Good. Because it's a Cruel Cruel Summer. Sledge-Hammer. Roll With It, my friends.

I trust my players. My players trust me. Whenever something does comes up, we fight it out with broken beer bottles and wrists lashed-together like we're in the Smooth Criminal video. Every once in a while, we hold a massive gang conclave and someone shoots Cyrus, and then it's all...

When my Action Man figures would fight my sister's Barbie dolls the Barbies always won because of the front push kicks. If you let Barbie dolls into your games, they'll kick everything to death. True fact.

Druids. Brown robes. Nature is as much a part of them as they are a part of nature. Annoying a druid is like sticking your face into a hornet nest and yelling "go away". It might look cool, but your face is gunna suffer. 1000% Primal. Ranger. Brown cloaks. Protecting nature is part of their...

And based on a D&D game, no less. You can even tell when the party turns up! I think The Scar does more world-building, and the Iron Council is his most personal novel, but Perdido Street Station is so strange, so familiar, and so lyrical all at the same time.
