Time spent with good friends is one of the few things folks from any time, place or walk of life can enjoy and look forward to.

This juggernaut of high fantasy role playing, math, drama, conquest, triumph and anguish has been the epicenter of so many enjoyable times in my life. But ... like most things good and amazing in this world ... The shine hides a shadow ... and my beloved DnD is no exception.
