Lawnmower Boy

OK here is the full cover image for the upcoming Jolrhos Codex.  I have the print version mostly done, and have to work a bit to get the pdf version finished, plus I have to get Jason's approval to make the "officially licensed" part to be true.  I don't expect any problems but one must go through the proper steps.
 

Still waiting for Hermit to come down on this whole smegging thread!

Spoiled for innuendo
 
 

I see no fracking merit to this conversation. 

That soft cover is the one I did illos for.  That was the original version. Before that was the xeroxed playtest rules.  (Also by Steve Petersen). If the Hard back is the same interior as the soft cover, then it was probably a custom job, as I have never heard of a hardback version.  However it was common at the time to take soft covers to binderies and have them rebound as hardbacks. This only cost about $60 bucks at the time.  Now it is a lot more expensive. 

I would have, too. 

Here's my number, call me maybe?
 
I kind of quit posting in this thread because I felt like I was whining, and because people showed up on the boards who I knew from reality.  But since they've been banned, I can chime in and say that I am involuntarily unemployed and my wife has an untreated personality disorder.  If anyone needs to commiserate about life, I'm your huckleberry.

Another beauty from the best account on Twitter. 
 

It's not the astronomers this time, but destruction is no less certain. 
 
 

I) Roger Scruton is absolutely a tinker. But not one of the good ones. The kind that gets your car torn half down and then spends four months "waiting for parts."
Ii) i refuse to take seriously any evaluation of Truss vs Sunak that fails to take into account his brownness. Though, to be fair, that's what Bagehot means by "clever." Point is, there's sone deniability there

Option
The Rose Oracle
The Order of the Rose have a secret weapon which is The Rose Oracle. The oracle is mobile and tends to follow the most dedicated knights hovering in the air. It is undetectable to Gods like Gideon and monsters like the Beast. Velath has seen it briefly but does not know what he saw. Jaleeka has almost seen it out of the corner of her eye and is aware that something has been aiding her enemies but she is not sure what. Pelas is oblivious to the Oracle which amuses it no end. Macrus is respectful of it but does not rely on it 100% as he feels it would make it vulnerable to the powers of evil.
The oracle has shared a concern that what has happened so far has been 'too easy' and the Paladin agrees. To reach the library so easily and for Pelas to solve the script so easily has made Macrus suspicious. When he finds out that Hes-Tha has the scrolls and cannot read, that will be the tipping point.

It was gaining XPs by undergoing quests?
 

Location II: The Town of Windsong
 
Windsong sits in the northern plains of the Kingdom of Dineev and once marked the northern border of the Grand March of Snave. The Town is located at the bottom of a steep ridge and along the shore of a small, memorably blue lake. It sits not quite two miles east of the King's High Road and is the last significant trading center before heading south to the Capitol. 
 
The surrounding area has fertile soil, adequate rain, and a favorable climate overall. Windsong and its environs produce grain, cattle, sheep, fowl, and onions in abundance. Town was once one of the richest in the area. But most of what they produce now goes to support Dineev's castle (and his army), so there is now barely enough left to keep the town's population alive. Many people have left Windsong over the past generation, looking for a better life somewhere else. The town is a frail shadow of its former glory.

Option: Jonna, daughter of Alon
 
Jonna is three years older than Drin and remembers her father remarkably well. Prodigiously intelligent and insightful, she is Drin's confidant and best friend as well as his sister. She supports him in his desire to free the land from it's evil King, but admonishes caution and waiting for the right moment. Drin sometimes becomes impatient with her, but knows deep down that she's probably right.
 
Although her brother does not have The Calling, Jonna does. She is an accomplished magician, and sometimes uses her talents in subtle ways to help the people of the town. She doesn't use her magic openly for fear of attracting the attention of the King.
 
Unknown to Drin, or pretty much anyone else, Jonna carries the Fire Stone. In fact, the only other person who knows she has it is her mother, who gave it to her.

This encapsulates 40 years of Moon Knight comics.
