Arcanum
from Dictionary.com
This reminded me of playing D&D . . . remember the Unearthed Arcana manual from TSR? I haven't played in very nearly two years and I've been missing it lately. Not so much the game play as the sitting around and BS-ing. That was always fun.
Although, now that I'm thinking about it, I do wonder who the elf in the woodpile is and what his claim to fame could be. I also wonder who Garth's other siblings are and why the only sister is so much worse than the any of the brothers. And poor Rannith . . . did he ever get his act together? And Jake and the Dragon Lady . . . did they ever . . . well, reproduce?
Well, heck and darn. I miss playing D&D.
