Discorso George R.R. Martin sul Fantasy

The best fantasy is written in the language of dreams. It is alive as dreams are alive, more real than real … for a moment at least … that long magic moment before we wake. Fantasy is silver and scarlet, indigo and azure, obsidian veined with gold and lapis lazuli. Reality is plywood and plastic, done up in mud brown and olive drab. Fantasy tastes of habaneros and honey, cinnamon and cloves, rare red meat and wines as sweet as summer. Reality is beans and tofu, and ashes at the end. Reality is the strip malls of Burbank, the smokestacks of Cleveland, a parking garage in Newark. Fantasy is the towers of Minas Tirith, the ancient stones of Gormenghast, the halls of Camelot. Fantasy flies on the wings of Icarus, reality on Southwest Airlines. Why do our dreams become so much smaller when they finally come true? We read fantasy to find the colors again, I think. To taste strong spices and hear the songs the sirens sang. There is something old and true in fantasy that speaks to something deep within us, to the child who dreamt that one day he would hunt the forests of the night, and feast beneath the hollow hills, and find a love to last forever somewhere south of Oz and north of Shangri-La.They can keep their heaven. When I die, I’d sooner go to middle Earth.

Ecco il nuovo tavolo per D&D :D

The objective of the SurfaceScapes project is to create a proof-of-concept for playing tabletop role-playing games on the Microsoft Surface Table. We will be using Dungeons and Dragons as a basis for our prototype, with the option for future expansion to other role-playing games. SurfaceScapes will provide Game Masters and players with a set of features to enhance the combat and role-playing aspects of tabletop games. This will include the ability to interact with the digital environment using real objects such as miniatures and provide automated calculations and visual and audio feedback for actions performed by the player and non-player characters. We are taking traditional tabletop role-playing games to the next level, adding a new layer of immersive and intuitive gaming to the Microsoft Surface Table and assisting both GMs and players in enjoying exciting and engaging adventures.
SurfaceScapes… what lies beneath.

Punti esperienza sessione 23/12/09

Due parole sul calcolo dei px dell’ultima sessione.
E’ stata una sessione che ha visto picchi di divertimento assoluti seguiti da situazioni errate di gioco.
Ho voluto premiare Antonio per essersi ricordato dei difetti del proprio personaggio, dato che a volte ci ricordiamo solo dei punti forza della classe, tralasciando tutto il resto.
Simone: come sempre interpretazione ottima (ancora una volta ti sei meritato il “mucho gusto 😀 ” ) ma sbagliatissima la scelta che ti ha portato alla morte soprattutto per un allineamento Neutrale Puro.

Un ulteriore appunto riguardante l’avventura rivolto a tutto il gruppo:  Non tutto è come sembra, cercate di andare più affondo anche perchè fin d’ora nessuno si è mai aggiudicato dei punti avventura riguardanti la storia. In particolare per questo capitolo (Cap 8).

Se avete domande io sono a vostra disposizione qui 😉

Cap 8 Cr 3: Alkon l’ archivista pazzo

Archivio III – giorno VI  equinozio

Mentre siedo alla mia scrivania per scrivere queste parole, odo lo squittio di voci murine ed il grattare di lunghi artigli alla porta. C’è qualcosa che si muove nell’oscurità, dai luoghi da tempo dimenticati del Westeros.

Per secoli l’impero è stato percorso da voci riguardanti orribili mostri che vivono nei cunicoli sotterranei . Le prove sono poche e molti studiosi imperiali sono stati ridicolizzati, esiliati o addirittura condannati per le loro affermazioni sulla veridicità di tali orrori. Li chiamano ‘ Skaven’ , maligni ratti giganti che camminano su due zampe in una disgustosa parodia degli uomini e che tramano di rovesciare coloro che abitano la
