Occasionally I dig up that page to see the bunfight between physrep and visrep... or the happy 'does Through go through dex ac'

Darokin Cops #Mystara - are crims down the sewer? Maybe, but also many baby Chuul. Theo doesn't pop the question on date night. Aralyn is paranoid about a letter and someone is using mind control to make people throw away jewellery. A missing person reappears - as a statue. Is the Nun a medusa?

#Mystara - The Fulvina housewarming party might include an evil midnight ritual on the roof... no one can quite tell due to the localised lighting storm.

There also a protracted swashbuckling duel going on, a queue of murders waiting to be solved, and a sulking volcanologist

Darokin Cops Night #Mystara - interrogation via mouse, a boyfriend possessed by a rubbish dragon, & a family reconciliation.

Then stopping people spying on the Tortle's Frog-Zoo, and another series of grizzly murders by 'the Grick' that point towards the mysterious disappearances near the docks

Darokin Cops Night #Mystara - time to look into a mysterious house with funny windows. Perhaps the lady inside is a vampire, she's keen for permission for a return visit.

Her secretary Is secretly working for the Iron Ring however - starting a 3-way fight with him and a vigilante known as the Grick

Or anything said by Kosh

The temptation to feed in all of those 'Marcher Proverbs' is almost overwhelming

Yeah- they don't have anything confidential any more

This weekend I'm off to #Empire LRP - to hang out with the cool kids/nerds in the npc/monster hut, and to see how many Mystara references I can sneak in.

6 months is too long between seeing people... also I might be on the lookout for more halfling 'aphorisms' ...

An Orange House with a Red Door - the emblem of the Play School kids TV show for the BBC

Darokin Cops Night #Mystara - a baby Chuul in the sewers ... and the Iron Ring, who are feuding v. the Veiled Society and Fellowship of the Pouch. Not Bad for a city with 'no gangs' in it.

A priest of Yagrai gets away - obviously, and the final scene looks like a raid on the Play School House...

'Professional' anything doesn't seem to be a requirement to get into that room these days

Darokin Cops Night #Mystara - It's off down the sewers, where apparently they have post-mortem-debtors (zombies) doing the maintenance. There's also a secret room, two inconvenient hirelings, and an acid-burned corpse

That Sewer-Crustacean that's just crawled into view is probably totally innocent

Talk to the plot team ;-)

Darokin Cops Night #Mystara - Rival post-scrap reports, a Parley between Clerics, Iron Ring are shown as some of the baddies.

Then dinner with Theo's extended family, leading to a plot-hook that leads back down the sewers.

But what are the Franichs and Sythins up to? And what is 'the Grik'?

Not Enough Hi-de-Hi references.... (yet)

Darokin Cops Night #Mystara - It's time for the training exercise - other cops are playing the role of kidnapping Thyatians and a dignitary needs rescuing. ish...

Our team LARP fight beating up the cast of Dad's Army who are badly dressed as Romans.

Then the Real Thyatian Ambassador turned up.

It's not that brick-shaped really, but does fuse together aesthetically discordant elements from both cultures

I'm also fond of this one - a Human/Minbari cooperation from Legend of the Rangers - described as 'a brick, but painted green'

The Time Lord Space Station Zenobia

The Solaris from Mysterious Cities of Gold

An Omega Destroyer from Babylon 5 - complete with rotating parts - all the B5 ships are great

The Liberator from Blakes 7... presumably this bit is the front and the green glowy bit is the engines.

Non Star Trek/Wars ships you say...

Decepticon Logo

looks familiar somehow

Darokin Cops Night #Mystara - One of our cops is being billeted with a chap they recently arrested - except the Mob have got here first to kill their Mark.

It's Darokin, so obviously the fight involves a conversation about an Invoice for a Healing Potion.

Lawks! Tory politician in 'not doing their research' shocker... perhaps she was 'busy', because disingenuous is such a long word to type

I got a Pot Noodle, so everything is probably fine... also its all 80s telefantasy... although the poisoned sugar is probably a 60s Cyberman scheme... so my money is on Cybernetic Vervoids, and I should have played Bonnie Langford

Trump dismantles Voice of America with executive order More than 1,300 staff placed on administrative leave as White House accuses VOA of being anti-Trump,

Well, sounds like before long we are going to need the BBC World Service so that Americans can get news

Lol - have you ever played more than that one game of Pendragon however ;-)

1. Tunnels and Trolls
2. Flip a coin between Dragon Warriors and Basic D&D
3. 3.5 D&D*
4. Pathfinder 1st ed, usually hacked with other settings
5. No idea
6. Bump in the Dark
7. Pathfinder 1e

*although "whatever weird thing Raff is keen on this week" is moving up there...

Darokin Cops Night #Mystara - A Thyatian Opera made from youtube clips, a useless Halfling Interpreter, and Date Night likely to turn into a heist.

The other cops got on with prying into a mysterious disappearance, maybe to do with the Umbarth Family trying to get their trade house back?

The Fulvina housewarming moves onto the afternoon hunt - a Golden Ram that's probably an AWOL animal companion. Also secret interviews with the count, a new mysterious Elf vigilante, a gate-crashed romantic picnic, a giant cog, and yet another body

#Mystara Murder Mystery

Darokin Cops Night #Mystara - Crowd control at Thanegioth Gardens, where the Tortle Richard Attenborough has crossbred everything with frogs. The monsters aren't monstrous, but some of the guests are.

Then we are back to the Missing Persons case and Theo is damn sure it's Vampires all the way down

Jean Marsh and John Leeson(?) as well

The whole of that Aniversary Special was just some jolly nonsense to build up to an off-screen TB saying 'You know, I really think you might'

It still makes me go Squee just thinking about it a decade later.
