Hello! This is Aaron! I know, right? Isn’t this exciting? I’m trying so hard not to sound like a newly wed on the night but I have to admit I’m besides myself! Oh right, about "A Guide To High Adventure".
So I grew up playing a lot of roleplaying games, both on paper with a very stubborn plastic icosahedron that never obeyed and on a screen that gave me a problem carrots couldn’t solve anymore. And I’ve always wondered, "what is it like being one of those people? You know, the ones that seem to be plucked from their counters serving drinks or their patrol duties complaining about arrows in knees? What is going on in that world that captivates our attention?"
So that idea evolved into this odd little commentary on the genre of high fantasy roleplaying and adventuring. We’ve all heard the tale of the dashing prince saving the princess from an evil wizard, but I always wondered, what are the stats?
Let’s have fun and find out, shall we? Allons-y!
