True, true.. But it would be nice to have some face to face gamers in the neighborhood. I don't want to assume you're in Portland (where I know I could find a game), but I'm here on the Oregon/Idaho border. I could probably find some groups in Boise, but for the moment I'm in a dry spot.Thanks to MapTools, I still get my game on though.
EDIT: unless Duckville is a real place! I'm new to the state.
Welcome to Oregon! I'm sure you can find a game in Boise if not a little closer to home. Good luck with that.
I'm actually in Eugene. The home of the University of Oregon. Our team is the "fighting ducks."
Back in the 1920s, they were the Webfoots.
Then again, my UW Huskies used to be the Sun Dodgers.
I do believe the Boston Red Sox used to be called the Boston Beaneaters (and a bunch of other odd nicknames - shoot, look up the team history of ANY sports team with a long history and you'll see a lot of interesting names) as well. Folks just had some different ideas about what to name things back in the day... :)
But enough of that - 6 minutes to go, tick tock!

A thin woman in a suit and sunglasses showed up at my place of work, confirmed my identity, and told me that, "We're going to make things a little harder on you this year. For the second round, you will design a 'fallen' relic, give it a short history in 100 words or less, and design an antagonist who uses it. Good luck!"
I've been brainstorming all day.
Garvantuldur, former intelligent Holy Avenger that went insane along with its owner after the (then) paladin killed a glabrezu only to discover that it had been curing villagers of a lethal plague unleashed by a devil rival. The Paladin went mad in the following hours as villagers dropped dead around him, and in the end he tried to commit ritual suicide but ended up coming back as an undead. All the sword's former powers, with regard to alignment, have been inverted and it remains in the hands of Sir Olvimor, although in undeath he is now a graveknight.
Easy... ;)
I'm pretty certain that they had multiple sections, one for stats, one for story and another for the villain stats, but it was a dream, of course, because I don't have a new tag on my name!
