Gnometastic :(
posted in Frenzied Daddy, Giantfall, Hurray for Geekdom |Fourth edition Dungeons and Dragons is coming. I’m not following it as closely as I’d like to- because I’m not playing it as much as I’d like. Since DnD was bought by Wizards of the Coast, I’ve been concerned about what they’re doing with the “franchise.”
I have some excellent memories of DnD. One of my least favorite, ok I’ll admit it, player races was the Gnome. It was really only set up for one class- my least favorite “illusionist.” Dammit when I throw a spell, it’s real, ok? Geez. Anyway, apparently I’m not the only one disillusioned with gnomes, because in the fourth edition they’re removing Gnomes from the Player Handbook and replacing it with a Tiefling. In the words of a pal, “the gnomes have been demoted from player race to wandering monster check.”
Poor guys.
Anyway, this is a (funny) (short) video that gives a little more insight as to the change. I guess the gnomes are pretty happy about it. This one called his mom! Anyway, check out the video. It’s the first one on the page.
