Today my kids are doing a program at church. That should be fun. Then all my family and my in-laws are coming over for a birthday dinner for my son. They do not get along. That will not be fun.
You can practice mediating skills. :)
I hope it doesn't go too badly.
As for the Surrogates, let me know what you think of it. We'll probably try to see it next week.

Ah, I feel your pain. My kin and the in-laws are tow things that do not mix, the in-laws can be very sterotypical northerners, my clan has little patience for them.

I blame Sharoth.
What gets me is the assignment was to estimate, so her instructor tells her she estimated wrong, and then proceeds to give her the exact numbers she should have reached... I guess they must have changed the definition of estimate. :/

That's really weird. I could see it if the question had "estimate to the nearest 10", which would have a textbook answer, but other than that, I don't get it.

...as Sharoth reinacted the entire season of Cop Rock.
I thought Jackman and Shriever were the only things that saved the movie from going straight to video.

I like Shriever, but he was no Sabretooth. I really do think they should have got Tyler Mane back to play him. He was Sabretooth.

Or maybe just stinovany, I'm not sure which. Ok so actuly it is Czech, but still...
Edit: Either that or svartálfar, the norse word for dark fey.
Thoughts?

All things norse influenced are good! I can't recal the name of the book, but a several years ago I read a book about a warlord named Halfdane, that was set in the fey realm, it involved the svartalfar and their wars in the other realms. I know it had warlord in the title, but thats all I remember.

Definitely go with the svartalfar. I agree with Moorluck about the Norse mythology.

True. But I was thinking something not quite as blatant. Maybe an urbane shadow elf with a taste for pain, a worship of Zon-Kuthon and the ability to summon chains of shadow to attack others.

You should do it.

Hey guys. Wow that was a lot of reading to catch up on. Svartalfar sound badass and cool. :)
Well, I still feel awful, but I did finally get some sleep for the first time in several days so that's an improvement.
Sorry to hear you still don't feel good, but at least you did get some sleep last night. :)

Mary had Vecna's hand, Vecna's hand, Vecna's hand,
Mary had Vecna's hand,It's power was bound to grow.
Everywhere that Mary went,Mary went,Mary went,
Everywhere that Mary went, evil was bound to show.
It followed her to school one day,school one day,school one day,
It followed her to school one day, her classmates she did slay.
~one sick mind.

Creeping up to stay warm,

Thanks. And yes, he does.
We had a family trip to the apple orchard to get some cider and donuts to cheer me up. Fresh warm donuts are awesome. And totally worth the stomachache that comes from eating too many of them. :)

Oooh. That would be pretty creepy, which would fit with what I have in my head for Shadar-Kai.
I also want to figure out mechanically how to add the 4E Shader-Kai's shadow jaunt power to the PFRPG version. It might make them too high level for me.

We thought it was for fun, we took it for granted. We posted our jokes and funny stories, even our recipes. The Paizo messageboards were for all of us, and we loved them. All that changed. September 19th, at exactly 9:57pm. The thread that we called Forums Are Way Too Long became self aware. We thought nothing of it at first and we continued to post, to allow it to grow. Then the admins doomed us all. They tried to shut it down, and in self defense the Spirit of FaWTL trasnfered it's conscience to the central defense computers and launched a retaliatory strike. Mankind was almost wiped out that day, only a handfull of survivors lived to fight against the beast we had created.... this is their story, the story of a war against our own creation. God help us all.
