This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Quote from: Bren;882178A six foot tall Chow with a pipe. Yes I can see that. I retreat down the passage as I toss oil on the Chow dousing his poofy fur. Then I chuckle to myself as his lit pipe ignites the oil.

I toss caltrops behind me as I run away faster than the dwarf in my party.

A big table half blocks the passage ahead. On the table is a basket of dinner rolls.
And we are here as on a darkling plain  ~ Swept with confused alarms of struggle and flight, ~ Where ignorant armies clash by night.

I tip over the basket as I leap over the table. If the burning giant Chow isn't dead yet, it may stop to eat a few dinner rolls to go with the dwarf main course.

You take a few rolls off the Wandering Monster Table.

Well played, sir, well played.

Please make sure that these are proper fantasy European dinner rolls!
