Okay WHY in Richard III Act 5 scene V does Henry VII called Richard a ‘bloody dog’ instead of a ‘bloody boar’ because FIRST of all, if you’re going to kill a guy at least let him keep his Brand™ . Second of all, it sounds better to say ‘bloody boar’ because alliteration. Third of all, it makes Henry sound better, because any idiot can kill a dog but boars are HUGE MASSIVE THINGS WITH THICK SKIN AND TUSKS and so killing one just gives you extra Cool Points even if your symbol is a dragon, but if you’re gonna be extra enough to have a dragon motif then you should be able to kill anyone who steps to you anyway.

It’s not the first time someone calls him a dog (it’s one of Margaret’s favorite things to call him in Richard III) and he says himself that his lot in life is to “snarl and bite and play the dog.” It’s a bit of a recurring theme.
It kind of bugs me that whenever somebody tries to draw a D&D orc with high Charisma, it’s always, like, slender frame, smooth skin, small tusks, high forehead, etc.
I mean, leaving entirely aside the fact that D&D explicitly treats Charisma as a metaphysical quality that operates wholly independently of physical appearance - you could have 20 Charisma and be ugly as hell - why are we making the high Charisma orc pretty by human standards? Seems awfully chauvinistic, if you think about it.
I wanna see a 20 Charisma orc who’s an absolute knockout by orc standards.
will olaf and minions ever end. will i be forced to live the rest of my life occasionally seeing olaf and minions

A post to new players.
I love new players. They dont know the rules, which you might be scared about. Not knowing the rules makes people think outside them.
New players dont know the clichés, they really think outside the box, and they’re consistently creative.
Dont be intimidated by the rules, be excited to try and break them.
