Dragon quest is full of puns. The one I'm playing now has a shield skill called "Blockenspiel".

The sun is too bright today. We don't like how it shines right into our apartment on summer afternoons.

Apparently, there's a brand of lithium-ion batteries called UltraFire. That doesn't seem like a name one should use for a brand of lithium batteries.

Goodnight all, and may you dream of wonders.

What exactly is the point of these unit conversions Wolfram Alpha gave me?

The dragon quest series has some nice puns for its enemy names.

Earlier, I had an arena fight against Attila the Hunk, and just now I encountered some bats in a cave, called vampire battlers.

Whoever contributed to coding "I love you" to mean "I want us to be in a committed relationship where we utterly depend on each other for all things emotional" deserves a posthumous kick in the shin.
Just saying.

He did a good job of it though. It's good music. I don't know much about the metal genre, so I can't say if it really fits into the genre they were targeting, but it's good music.

It really is odd to think that Nobuo Uematsu started a metal band and released three albums. He isn't the sort of person you'd think of when you think metal music.

I think it's worth reminding people from time to time--you're allowed to make mistakes, and making mistakes doesn't make you a bad person.

pitch: a tree
- grows pumpkins
- as they ripen in the fall, pressure built up in the branches is spontaneously released, and the pumpkins are hurled away at a 45° angle
- very effective seed dispersal

You're a lovely bunch of people on here. 💙

Jason Scott just dumped the ZIL source code for every infocom game on github. Clone it before Activision's lawyers wake up. And now we see how long it takes for the internet to produce a compiler for a language that's been dead for 30+ years from a cache of production grade source code for said language. We've had compiled z-machine files, but never the original ZIL. github.com/historicalsource

Character design thoughts 

@Felthry has a character named Aditi, and I had some thoughts on an outline for his brother. I'd love to see it expand this into a full character, if it wants to!

Name undecided -- Darius?

Aditi's older brother
Transmasculine nonbinary, he/him pronouns and masc presentation
Doesn't bind; actually likes his bust
Taur
Moderately well off, but not rich
Occupation-- Woodworker? Probably has a machine shop
Interested in spellcraft, but as a hobby not a career
Estranged from most of the family, but very close with Aditi
The Cool Uncle kind of guy--are there any kids he's a Cool Uncle to?
