Oh wonderful. Here we go, back to the harlot table...
I won't be able to work hoary into the title at this point, but I'll tell you what: If the party ever finds itself stepping into Norse Mythology, I'll rename the Bifröst the Hoarfröst in your honor. Deal?

That sounds like a deal!

Overbearlingly judgmental English majors are driven exceedingly crazy by excessive use of unnecessary adverbs, redundant and surplus adjectives, and the passive voice.
And the misuse of commas because, that drives us crazy.
(Also English major! And former writing instructor! I know how to write a proper sentence starting with a conjunction! Woot!)

I learned that word from Dr. Strange and the Hoary Hosts of Hoggoth!
Stan Lee and Gary Gygax really did broaden so many minds, the dead old bastards.

They sure did.
I have one last big question before I move us over to our own forum. What's your preference: DM handles all dice rolls? Or players roll their own dice using Unseen Servant? I could go either way.

I prefer the DM does the rolling. Seems to keep things moving along better.
BTW, I rolled my stats for my dwarf. Can you believe I got all 18s and a 36? The luck of the dice, man....

I’m fine either way when rolling dice.
My character is a super hero too. Mostly 3s but I got a six for DEX so I think he’ll be a thief…

NICE! With amazing stats like that, I think you should roll for Rik. I know he'd appreciate it.
