Very nice page indeed!
I can even understand some of it, Russian seems to be really similar to Czech.

Thanks! I'm glad you liked it Guess the language should be similar

I wonder if I could translate something to English so that if any of you Downers were interested could read it... you know, I thought that I'll maybe need some advices on something, or some constructive criticism... well, but translate... *shudders*

High King , this is hysterical! Many thanks for the laughs -- I didn't play D&D that often, but it all seems so familiar.

I found another D&D comic, and am gradually working my way through over 400 past strips! Very funny!
Here's the link: The Order of the Stick
Enjoy!

You are the nemesis of my daily goals.

I'm now in the unique position of being distracted from a distraction from a distraction from work (i.e. posting this about reading the back issues of that comic, when I was going to think of a new post for your RPG, when I ought to be doing my job).

Add one more level of distraction and it'll take me a D10 stress roll of 50 to achieve basic first-level procrastination.

And I didn't just say that either.

Thumbs up

I'm glad you've discovered OOTS, Estelyn. I've been following it for a while. I also recommend Goblins for a somewhat more serious perspective on D&D.

Speaking of D&D, I was at a Border's last night and I flipped through this hardcover D&D book about the 9 Hells, devils, and all of that creepy stuff. It shows the leaders of each of the 9 Hells like Asmodeus and Mephistopholes. They were all scary and I had a nightmare last night.

I thought you all would like to know...


By the way, what good is Satan to D&D anyway? That creep belongs in Revelation.
