No, parrots are BIRDS. Honest mistake.

I had originally written that, but I went and looked it up and it actually is “this”. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

DREAMS ARE MADE OF THIS, WHO AM I TO DISAGREE

You sound like you’d be a blast to hang out with. I mean that genuinely.

I had a really neat idea about playing a changeling bladesinger who most likely pretended to be elven to learn the art, although I did have a not-quite-RAW idea about the old switched-at-birth changeling myth, where his elven “parents” would have taught him before he slipped up and they realized what he was.

He was actually three characters in one: a mostly nondescript human “bard”, spinning extremely tall tales about a mysterious elven bladesinger who doled out vigilante justice at night (also the changeling), and the changeling himself, who hated the way people looked at his true form, would only have revealed it to the party if he had no other choice, and really just wanted to be a hero in a group of adventurers, doing the kind of stuff he made up and sang about in taverns.

I came up with this concept a few years ago, but even before COVID I was kind of my group’s forever DM, so even if I ended up at a gaming table again soon I probably wouldn’t get to play it, so if you like it, feel free to use it. You cannot steal what is gifted!

You’re a good sport.

This has been my past four or five weekends. Can’t make myself do anything. It’s maddening.

Get over yourself. Even if they don’t do porn, the kids will make shit up about the ones they find attractive. Or are teachers not allowed to be attractive, either?

There was a rumor at my high school that one of the math teachers used to pose for Playboy back in the day. Whether she did or not (I never found out, and who cares), she knew her shit and was a damn good teacher.

Let people live. For crying out loud.

Well, he does seem to be incapable of calming them.

Ah, Sierra. The game company almost singlehandedly responsible for creating a generation of masochists.

You’re still right.

Ehhhh… I’d classify that one as more Steampunk Fallout (1 or 2) or Baldur’s Gate. Not that that makes it bad - it’s great fun! Just maybe not what OP is looking for.

Optical Character Recognition. Essentially, software that “reads” an image and pulls text out of it.

I absolutely love this change for dwarves. May I borrow it?

Man, ZZT was great. Plus it paved the way for MegaZeux, which is still my favorite “game nobody’s heard of before”. I want that Tim Sweeney back.

Ah, of course. Hence the popular goodnight, “don’t let the bugbears bite!”

I feel seen.

I’m not gonna argue, though. Well played.

It’s still way more than “none”. Let’s not let perfect be the enemy of good.

Well, for your standard “horse body” centaurs, they’re typically depicted as both being in the back. But this picture seems to be using human legs, so it’s basically the interpretation of the original artist (but my guess would be same as a standard centaur because vag-in-front centaurs don’t show up in art very much)

I promise from now on that I will stand for the opposite… gnodab.
