Speaking of New York, I saw you walking down 6th Avenue yesterday. I would have said "Hi, I'm a big fan." Except I didn't have a follow up to that. And you were already talking to someone. And I was on my way to meet my lady. Just thought you should know.

Is it a vending machine that dispenses machine guns or a machine gun style vending machine dispensing Snickers the way Richard Gatling intended?

6 Things in Post-Apocalyptic Margate:

1 d4+1 kids searching for treasure in a pile of dogshit on the beach

2 A bright-haired angel delivering a cake with the PCs names on it

3 Two old guys yelling at each other across the street; despite them obviously talking in the local dialect it is incomprehensible even to someone who has lived locally for 25 years.

4 A mechanical elephant that contains a pub which, though obviously designed to fleece tourists, is actually quite pleasant

5 A toy crane claw machine that delivers cute cuddly toys with their eyes sewn up

6 A burnt out building that was formerly protected by the town council

Bonus: An art gallery run by a creature made entierly of knitted tentacles and sombreros. Sombreroes? I don't know.

Hi guys !!!!

I just "post to watch" I discovered this website searching for "anime cyborg", but it's incredible that I am a D&D master and I play from late 2001. I live in Venice, Italy.

In the next weeks, I'll look this blog because I really like your idea, and I also love sex & D&D. Explosive combination.

I want to share with you this song/video: http://youtu.be/1FH-q0I1fJY

I will search for an email of you in the next weeks, because I have a good collection of D&D images (as a master) to share with you as a zipfile, I see that you have a very good aesthetic sense while posting your pictures.

Hi Zak and Mandy !
thanks for this blog.
