d: Don't you find it a bit weird that you're obviously exploiting morality itself to cheat your way to Lawfulness, which is an unlawful act in itself?

@: Hmm...you know, I never thought about it that way.

@: Hey, maybe that made me lose even more alignment points! I should go for a world record!

d: Magic ethics is scary like that, isn't it?

Hmm... Isn't the Necronomicon a book?

#2 Isometrus Sat, 19 Apr 2014 17:17:32
Oops--yeah, I probably should have made it a spellbook.

On the other hand, if it were a spellbook, it would be pretty YASDy when unidentified.

#3 Anonymous Sat, 19 Apr 2014 19:46:27
Given the meaning of "necro-", a book called Necronomicon should be the Book of the Dead.

Now I really want to see what the One Ring and Majora's Mask would do to each other.

#5 Isometrus Tue, 22 Apr 2014 20:28:28
Become Majora's Mask and Monocle?

I assume this is a crossover between different video games.
