So yeah, apparently there was some leak in Myspace - I don't know the technical details of it, but apparently a whole lot of personal pictures were made publicly available for a while, and some geek downloaded them all to share the horror with the rest of us.

So, without further ado,



Is there character class potential here?  Maybe a bard prestige class?  More importantly, what the hell are those shoes?  Help me wrap my mind around this CBG.

That.
Is.

Cool.

I have a huge Bardic presence in my setting.  I am going to inflict this onto my players.  Really.  Shoes and all.

"inflict?"

Actually, I think it's pretty cool, other than the shoes.

I haven't been called cruel in weeks.


But if a massive bardic presence (including PC's) makes a DM cruel, then yeah, it would apply.  Though that guy above is coming into Igbar as an outlander, who is going to be paid by one of the trading families that is contesting with the PC's.

Well no, I was referring more to the fact that you'd even include the shoes...

My Martial School of Song is almost all drummer-bards...Very annoying.  Also nicknamed the 'Archers are Pansies' Bards.  I am using both of these pictures...
