This is the End

No, I am not quoting the Doors. I am not deleting Bricu nor am I ending my run on WTTRP. I’m talking about the end, the conclusion, of stories.
I have a problem with endings. I think I can hook a players into a story. With enough time and participation, I can [...]

Friday Fiction Writing Assignment: Shakedown

Your assignment, should you chose to accept it, is to write up how your character was approached by an indidivual of questionable standing (the Riders are using Bricu) and asked to impose themselves in the way of a shakedown (searching a building, taking someone into custody, obessively looking into [...]

The Absolute Value of Badass: A Meditation

If you’re an old school nerd, this question is one you have probably pondered for ages: Who would win in a fight, X or Y? Nerds can go on for hours about why their candidate–be it comic book character, Starship captain or Operating Syste–is the most bad ass example of awesome ever conceived. [...]

Wrathgate Wednesday: Stolen Kills

The Wrathgate Cinematic come in at four minutes, thirty seconds. Our Wrathgate project took months to finish. This huge difference in time is due, in part, to imaging that there was more action just off camera. We also gave a lot of time between italic (guide) posts to make sure everyone got a [...]

Responsibility

The take-away point, dear readers, from Falconesse’s last post is choice. Players, regardless of gender, should be allowed to choose what their characters, regardless of gender, wear.  I do not think it would hurt Blizz’s bottom line to introduce MORE customization to avatars.

Thank Yous

Even clichés have their place, and being thankful on American Thanksgiving is an acceptable one. So today, instead of beating the Pilgrim’s Bounty achievement to death, I think we should take stock in what we are thankful for.
Thank you for taking your time with Arthas. Seriously. Thank you the Zombie invasion. Thank [...]

Wrathgate Wednesday: Two Paladins and a Druid Head North

Aelflaed
“Uther’s Balls, Bert. I thowt ye… an’ Stratholme. An’ ye foun’ me here? … bloody hell.” She stood up, looking him clean in the face, eye to eye, before looking away.
“Aye, bloody hell’s about the size of it. Been through it once, looks like tomorrow we get to do it all again. How the nether [...]
