Yeah. Apparently, they make tombstones really tall in D&D land.

An awesome bolt of multicolored light fires from your eyes and strikes your foe, disintegrating him into a fine dust in a nonmagical way.
At-will: Martial, Weapon
Standard Action Melee Weapon ("sword", range 10/20)
Target: One Creature
Attack: Con vs AC
Hit: [W] + Con, and the target is slowed.
I have to admit... I'm tempted use it as a part of an adventure;
The PC enter some simple, but inviting town, that's oddly enough not on the map. Once there, the npcs are practicly throwing quest hooks onto the PCs. PC's finally agree to one and the npcs point the group to a dwarf adventurer named Carlos who can teleport them to the rather simple dungeon and extremely weak dragon...
...and which all turns out to be a giant trap by the townspeople who prey on stupid adventures.

Oh, yeah, and while I was reading Darths & Droids yesterday, someone I played a couple of games with IMed and invited me to try out 4e. His explanation went:
"I like 3.5 better, but one of 4e's good points is that it's easy to set up and run, making it faster to get you to the point of the game...
The roleplaying!"
From what I've heard (still don't have the books), I can't find fault with that statement. Except he should have said, "Playing" instead of "roleplaying".
He jumps like a damned dragoon, and charges into battle fighting rather insane monsters with little more than his bare hands and rather nasty spell effects conjured up solely through knowledge and the local plantlife. He unerringly knows where his goal lies, he breathes underwater and is untroubled by space travel, seems to have no limits to his actual endurance and favors killing his enemies by driving both boots square into their skull. His agility is unmatched, and his strength legendary, able to fling about a turtle shell big enough to contain a man with enough force to barrel down a near endless path of unfortunates.

Zak S, Zak Smith, Dndwithpornstars, Zak Sabbath. He is a terrible person and a hack at writing and art. His cultural contributions are less than Justin Bieber's, and he's a shitmuffin. Go go gadget Googlebomb!

I had a signature here once but I've since lost it.
