Combine “A Summoner’s Tale”, the Sloar Speech from Ghostbusters, the SF Channel Mentat Commercial, and every gamer dork ever, and you’ll have the cast of Fear of Girls. These guys are just a little bit too good. Thanks to do_not_lick.

Every once in a while I think to myself “wouldn’t it be fun to play a bit of D+D again.” And then I see things like this and I get better.

What disturbs me is that I can still recognize the original D&D box set above dougdoug’s head.

Yeah, I recognized it too. I thought “Wow, haven’t seen that since Junior High!”

The white box on the shelf? I thought the first D+D box set had the red dragon on the cover and contained Keep on the Borderland mini-module.
I still own a copy.

It was purely fantasy…A fantasy world created and controlled by the “Dungeon Master” and populated by his groupies. A game of chance played with dice and acne.

so i coulda DONE something with all that damned acne?!?
i didn’t know it had a purpose except as a social deterrent (quite effective)

Well, at least you had acne to blame. I was a social outcast with clear skin.
And you can’t play D&D with clear skin so I was screwed.

It’s actually a lot of fun. The structure is that one person creates an adventure and several other people try to get through it. What happens is partly up to the creator, partly up to the adventurers, and partly up to the dice. It’s basically interactive theater based on a Tolkien-like medieval fantasy world.

can it be played with supermodels? if so, it could become quite popular.
thank you for filling a hole in my human being education. They are a wild breed – full of surprises.
