Tonight, my "Lethal Damage" 13th Age campaign draws to a close.
Originally shared by Jonathan Tweet Tonight, my "Lethal Damage" 13th Age campaign draws to a close. Meanwhile, the guys are work have talked me into running a couple D&D sessions for them. That was the day 13th Age was announced, and they're happy to play 13th Age instead. That will be my "Great Center" campaign, based in the imperial capital of Axis, the center of the world. It's my opportunity to explore the setting from yet another perspective.
I'll just tag Richard G right away.
ReplyDeleteI need to reread this series. It's a balm for difficult times.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely true! I've read them all, but now I'm listening to the audiobooks, getting them from the library in as close to correct order as I can. The narrator is fantastic.
ReplyDeleteAubrey and Maturin is amazing.
ReplyDeleteThe second funniest line in English literature.

Nope. The funniest line is "He who would pun would pick a pocket." I quote it all the time, then have to explain where it came from. (The lesser of two weevils!)
ReplyDeleteNo love for "Jack, you have debauched my sloth"?
ReplyDeleteNote I said the second funniest line. The two quotes above are both in the top 3 as well.
ReplyDeleteSo what IS the funniest line?
ReplyDeleteHumza wins, Torah Cottrill. It's the debauched sloth. But lesser of two weevils is right there. Also the "dog watches are cur-tailed" or at least Jack telling that joke and trying not to mess it up.
ReplyDeletethe pun quote is the most useful in actual conversation, as you noted.
ReplyDeleteAw shit I forgot about cur-tailed.
ReplyDeleteNice catch.
