Unrelated: today's productivity was brought to you by the inspiring soundtrack to the musical episode of "
Buffy the Vampire slayer"
, perhaps unsurprisingly for a narrator born in the mid 80s. :;

Taking this out of the justice thread. Embarassed

Jon Cobb appreciated a similar message in the past and I hope that crazy old Dulver does too.

funnily, that game I mention has both of them in it now

It looks good from what I see on the official boards, but a very different style from my folly.

Raynald was pretty interesting character, with him we probably had all kinds of personalities in our House Very Happy

by **Ser Jorah Holt** Wed Dec 30, 2015 9:29 pm

very different. takes a little bit to switch my head between the two sometimes

by **Ser Walton Dulver** Wed Dec 30, 2015 9:56 pm

hm, playing last season of Telltale's Game of Throne and it brings me a question- what I was and still am choosing/deciding, does it make any difference for a story? Embarassed

I have some feeling that Telltale lost it at some point...

As the longer standing players know, Dragon's Dance is mainly the story of my house collapsing. The odd bout of RPG actions breaks out.

Almost live, I bring you the plaster falling from one room's ceiling (let's see if this link works):

It's hopefully only plaster and a room with barely use (ah, the travails of Edinburgh investment managers), but it looks dramatic and made an impressive noise. My cat seems remarkably unperturbed.

Yikes!

by **Septon Arlyn** Wed Dec 30, 2015 10:25 pm

Impressive... That cat has balls of steel. (Or severe hearing loss)

Hopefully that means the picture works. Doubt I'll have fixed this before beloved fiancee gets back from Nice, but aiming to have at least organised some repairs.

The cat (bizarrely pre-dating Theomore and known as Theo Surprised

, but usually just called Guzzler) is inspecting the room now. Lots of good sniffing opportunities - that room is where he sleeps normally and has his climbing frame (he's a pampered beast), but thankfully I'd closed the poor!

That cat could be driving a car during rush hour in Russia, for all the shits he gives.

Which is an odd sort of compliment, but there we go. Smile

It sort of matters. The outcomes are the same, the Forresters are defeated, but you may choose who is alive. You choose either to protect the north grove or flee south. You make moral decisions, how the characters are portrayed, and though the story arc stays much the same your choices still matter.
Example: If you spare the thief with Ethan in the first chapter he fights for you during the siege, if you don't spare him he's obviously not present. The same with the traitor.

I'm not seeing a cat in that photo. Sad

by **Gwyneth Drakeson** Thu Dec 31, 2015 2:25 am

No no, not in the photo. Just from the description. Smile

Ahhhhh. Ok. I thought I was losing it there!

Well, of course the cat won't give a toss. Cats are dicks. Laughing

by **Gwyneth Drakeson** Thu Dec 31, 2015 2:43 am

lol, yeah, but most cats I know were very easily startled. Smile

by **Reader** Thu Dec 31, 2015 10:19 am

Here is Theo/the Guzzler/Lord Bigface. The fortress he's pictured in was directly beneath the cave in, but luckily the door to that room was closed!

Awww! He looks so plush! I want to cuddle him!

How do you share photos in posts? I want to show you all my little floofy companions. Smile

Thanks! I'm not normally a pet person, but I bought him as a present for the gf and he has slowly won me over.

I normally:

1) upload things to google drive
2) set google drive (for that picture only) to "
share if other user has link"

3) get a shareable link from googe
4) paste the link in here. Smile

or, if like myself you dislike Google Drive, you can upload the pic to an image hosting site like [url:1q4ov11b]http:

no account needed.

They're charming beasts and probably friendly than the Guzzler (as noted cats are dickish, and in his case particularly so: after my fiancee's much smaller cat surrendered in a fight, guzzler just kept on pounding. I had to separate them temporarily).

Cracking names.
