Somewhere there is a forum where all these magic items are posting their opinionated diatribes and whining about their owners. I once knew this barbarian. Eight feet tall he was, and […]
by Rob Heinsoo When I read the fun Wrath of the Orc Lord organized-play adventure written by ALL CAPS WOMAN, aka ASH LAW, I decided I’d want another orc variety or two if I was running the adventure myself.
