Nerd By Northwest #309 – “Artistic License”
(Click on the image to see the full-size version)


Neat bit of trivia... the hill giant steading in the background is drawn based off the artwork from the original D&D module 'Against the Giants'! 🙂

When our gaming group played through the updated 'Against the Giants' module (featured in 'Tales from the Yawning Portal') last year, we cheesed our way in to the fort with our wizard's Passwall spell. But as our heroes here don't have a powerful spellcaster (instead they have a... ahem... bard 😁), they're going a different route. Will it work? Given the average hill giant has the IQ of a bowl of tapioca pudding, I'm gonna say "yes".

Lastly, having done a search for "Trojan Pig" led me to discover that a cider company in the UK has apparently built one, and even rents it out as an Airbnb. Honestly I'm a bit surprised; that's the kind of weird thing I'd expect an American to do first (because as a country we have a screw loose). But apparently the Brits beat us to it! Just like they did with the Trojan Rabbit...

Of course they'll let the pig inside! Bacon, baby!

I enjoy it when my party goes off the beaten path when I'm running a game. Most recently they ended up befriending a chimera with the promise of food, then left him with a farmer. When they finally get back I'm thinking the farmer and chimera are going to be crime lords.

Oh we Brits can do weird, but we have all that history with surreal comedy.

!PIZZA

Yeah, but the British have that kind of mildly clever, surreal kind of weird. The American kind of weird specializes in BUILDING weird things... like monster trucks, the world's largest ball of twine, or the world's largest bong. You Brits are obviously messing with American territory again... 😉

We just do normal stuff, like chasing cheese

Now, I need to rent an air bnb pig!
Maybe also those giant helium pigs that Pink Floyd used to have at their concerts. !LOLZ

Scrabble
It’s all fun and games until someone loses an I.

Methinks I should build a Trojan yak, camel, or sheep to rent out as an Airbnb here in Mongolia! 😎
