Nerd News: Two Bird Posts
So there are two Bird-related things to report today.
One is a real-life DnD Monster, the Lammergeier, a bird that apparently eats bones. Not bone marrow… bones. It drops them on rocks and eats them. This terrible bird also looks like this. And this. They dissolve bones in their stomachs. And throw up on their enemies, like cheerleaders. They have nine foot wingspans. Also, it apparently...

Hey guys! Cheap models! →
This is basically a shameless advertisement for what has quickly become the best kickstarter ever. If you don’t know, kickstarter is a project funding webpage where people with cool ideas for stuff (games, events, products, etc) post their idea on a page. Other people who think the idea is cool can throw money at them to fund it. Depending on how much you fund the project, you get various...

Skavv's Rant: Gamer Girls
Alright, this one is going to be a whopper. First let me say that women who are into gaming are more than just a welcome addition to the gamer hordes; women are a big part of that subculture all on their own. The world doesn’t need to “accept” the idea of gamer girls, because the idea is already a solidified reality. The world might as well “accept” the idea of...

The Golden Rules, Part 2
I recently started to work the rust out of the old DMing muscles (that’s right, my muscles rust) and was somewhat surprised to see that I am a bit out of practice. For one thing, I made a grievous error in running my game, which brings me to this post’s Golden Rule of DMing: “You can’t predict what the players are going to do, even if you think you have them...

Skavv's Rant: I'm back.
I’m back. Alright, I have some explaining to do. If you’ve been paying much attention to my blog here, it probably seemed like I died. Close, but no deathstick. I got a degree, got a job, gained and lost a small fortune, met a new fortune, and started playing The Old Republic. Two of my regular DnD games dried up, and I ran a few oneshots. I would like to thank both of my followers for...

5 Reasons Zombie Games Are Taking Over The World
With titles like Left 4 Dead, Dead Rising, Plants vs Zombies, and more recently Dead Island each raking in millions of dollars, there is some sociological phenomenon at work to sway public interest toward the undead. In addition to these games there are other big names that are eluding me right now, and of course there are the ‘zombie versions’ of nearly every big game. With more or...
