I end up transferring all my files via Zip drive between laptops, and it’s a pain to organize the stuff (so much so that it ain’t organized…natch).

I can't find those notes anywhere. I'm beginning to suspect I have them saved locally on a semi-defunct laptop that I can *probably* persuade to return to life enough to retrieve them. I was slow to embrace cloud storage, and I regret the hell out of it.

For a bit, I was working on researching/writing up some more Middle Eastern inspired playable races, but I have no idea where those notes are. <br /><br />(Once upon a time, I was working on a Persian-themed setting for B/X. I was mildly surprised it didn't get me on a No Fly list...)

My daughter is quite funny...much more so than my boy.<br /><br />What's really interesting is that she was able to find a use for the spell...she is always looking to find a use for ALL her spells, not just the combat ones. Her spell use in the session included jump, comprehend languages, sleep, and message...I think the only ones she didn't get to were shocking grasp and audible glammer. However, "utility" spells generally find a lot of use in my campaign.JBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03263662621289630246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4143435314932633148.post-55428919517196939262021-11-24T11:31:41.307-08:002021-11-24T11:31:41.307-08:00That message part cracked me up!That message part cracked me up!Jensanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16216604356936975761noreply@blogger.com
