EST SOLARUS OTH MITHAS.

Sturm was boring, and I didn't feel Riverwind was very fleshed out as a character. I think Flint (Flynt???) was my favorite. Tas was also radical fo real. But god, Verminaard is the most ridiculous name ever.

I'll show YOU Verminaards, smartass.

I also remember the sextet of background stories. some of them were cool. flynt & tanis in eleven court intrigue was pretty rad. also, The Brothers Majere was cool because it was abt RAISTLINERE>

Ian c=====8 (orion), Tuesday, 10 August 2004 02:15 (nineteen years ago) link

Do you have any of these still?

x j e r e m y (x Jeremy), Tuesday, 10 August 2004 02:17 (nineteen years ago) link

ALL OF THEM. IN THE CABINET NEXT TO MY BED. ♥

Ian c=====8 (orion), Tuesday, 10 August 2004 02:57 (nineteen years ago) link

Riverwind was the best character but my favorite was Tanis.

He did.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 10 August 2004 16:09 (nineteen years ago) link

This thread is just...wow. I had no idea.

Leon Czolgosz (Nicole), Tuesday, 10 August 2004 16:13 (nineteen years ago) link

And now you know, and knowing is half the battle!

Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 10 August 2004 16:16 (nineteen years ago) link

I may have been better off not knowing!

Leon Czolgosz (Nicole), Tuesday, 10 August 2004 16:19 (nineteen years ago) link

OH, yes you did. Stop lyin'.

VengaDan Perry (Dan Perry), Tuesday, 10 August 2004 16:19 (nineteen years ago) link

Stop being such a loose cannon.

Leon Czolgosz (Nicole), Tuesday, 10 August 2004 16:21 (nineteen years ago) link

(This one is better but I think it's too big)

VengaDan Perry (Dan Perry), Tuesday, 10 August 2004 16:25 (nineteen years ago) link

Reading this thread is like going through Recovered Memory Therapy. I had totally repressed, er, forgotten Dragonlance. The books were explicitly connected to D&D (or TSR or Wizards of the Coast or whatever) weren't they?

This made me think of Steve Jackson's "Sorcery!" series, which was a more complicated version of "Choose Your Own Adventure" books. Did anybody else here read those?

Nemo (JND), Tuesday, 10 August 2004 16:41 (nineteen years ago) link

ha ha holy shit I forgot all about Raistlin's fucking SKIN

nickalicious (nickalicious), Tuesday, 10 August 2004 16:47 (nineteen years ago) link

If we're going to get into repressed memory...

My Halloween costume 1987 was in fact Raistlin.

No, no photographs exist. ;-)

GILTHANAS IN RETROSPECT = THINLY VEILED LEGOLAS WITH DRAGONBABE GIRLFRIEND

nickalicious (nickalicious), Tuesday, 10 August 2004 16:53 (nineteen years ago) link

Theoretically an improvement.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 10 August 2004 16:53 (nineteen years ago) link

My girlfriend claims she got into Dragonlance from seeing that cover and wondering what was up with Raistlin's eyes.

I have no words for those 'drow'.

Jordan (Jordan), Tuesday, 10 August 2004 17:23 (nineteen years ago) link

Oh, she was also offended that I only mentioned making the potatoes out of the cookbook, and wants everyone to know that she's also made the gully dwarf cookies and bunch of other stuff many a time. Now you know.

Jordan (Jordan), Tuesday, 10 August 2004 17:25 (nineteen years ago) link

want some more fun? do a search for "drow real doll"

Lt. Kingfish Del Pickles (Kingfish), Tuesday, 10 August 2004 17:32 (nineteen years ago) link

Jordan, you rude man, your girlfriend was right to complain about you for not mentioning her other cookery earlier. But all is rectified.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 10 August 2004 17:33 (nineteen years ago) link

oh no xpost

NOW IS THE TIME FOR COMFORT BOOKS

It's a comfort THREAD. My god, the madness here.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 4 November 2004 21:31 (nineteen years ago) link

Results 1 - 10 of about 200 for "sexy drow". (0.36 seconds)

Nemo (JND), Thursday, 4 November 2004 22:08 (nineteen years ago) link

I met Margaret Weis by accident at GenCon. It was pretty cool.

Tep (ktepi), Thursday, 4 November 2004 22:11 (nineteen years ago) link

Every month is NaNoWriMo for her.

Nemo (JND), Thursday, 4 November 2004 22:13 (nineteen years ago) link

to echo a question i had on the video game thread, when did drow elf chicks somehow become fetishized? Everquest? The Baldur's Gate series?

Sir Kingfish Beavis D'Azzmonch (Kingfish), Thursday, 4 November 2004 22:15 (nineteen years ago) link

A suggestive illustration in "The Monster Manual" or "Fiend Folio"?

Nemo (JND), Thursday, 4 November 2004 22:20 (nineteen years ago) link

When was the first appearance of Drizzt Do'Urden (or rather when was his origin trilogy published)?

The Ghost of Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Thursday, 4 November 2004 22:22 (nineteen years ago) link

This thread just reminded me how bad the Saturday morning D&D cartoon used to be. One of the true injustices of my youth.

bnw (bnw), Thursday, 4 November 2004 22:27 (nineteen years ago) link

Aw, I loved that cartoon.

The Ghost of Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Thursday, 4 November 2004 22:30 (nineteen years ago) link

Granted, I can't remember a nanosecond of it now, but it was better than stuff like The Gummi Bears.

The Ghost of Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Thursday, 4 November 2004 22:31 (nineteen years ago) link

When was the first appearance of Drizzt Do'Urden (or rather when was his origin trilogy published)?

Google says the Icewind Dale trilogy started in '88 and the Dark Elf trilogy started in '90.

Jordan (Jordan), Thursday, 4 November 2004 22:33 (nineteen years ago) link

GUMMI BEARS
BOUNCING HERE AND THERE
AND EVERYWHERE
HIGH ADVENTURES BEYOND COMPARE
THEY ARE THE GUMMI BEAARRRRS

THEY ARE THE GUMMI BEAAARRRRRRRS

also, the ranger and the barbarian kid from the D&D cartoon show up in Baldur's Gate 2, as you no doubt know...

Sir Kingfish Beavis D'Azzmonch (Kingfish), Thursday, 4 November 2004 22:33 (nineteen years ago) link

Wait. They do?????

The Ghost of Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Thursday, 4 November 2004 22:34 (nineteen years ago) link

Are they the kids who ask you to get them beer and swords?

The Ghost of Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Thursday, 4 November 2004 22:35 (nineteen years ago) link

no, but their images are on the wall of the Adventurer's Mart. The game comments that they were soon thereafter eaten by the god Tiamat.

Sir Kingfish Beavis D'Azzmonch (Kingfish), Thursday, 4 November 2004 22:44 (nineteen years ago) link

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

The Ghost of Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Thursday, 4 November 2004 22:47 (nineteen years ago) link

DRAGONLANCE.

BUT STAY THE FUCK AWAY FROM THE DEATHGATE CYCLE.

Ian John50n (orion), Friday, 5 November 2004 02:10 (nineteen years ago) link

Has a taking sides between Chronicles and Legends been done yet? I take Chronicles, for how sheerly over the top the time travel trip/Raistlin in hell bit is.

lysander spooner, Friday, 5 November 2004 02:25 (nineteen years ago) link

Uh...that's Legends. (And I agree with you, it's also a more organic story, for lack of a better word -- the Chronicles were a bunch of playtest campaigns written up into an instatrilogy.)
