It took me a little while, considering it's outside my norm of genre. Inspiration-wise? It started with a friend's suggestion I try a parody of sorts, which I followed up with nerd-culture references (I am one, after all), taking after some trope deconstructions I've grown fond of lately, then adding a bit of 4th wall break which I love when done right. By the time I had the concept, it was a matter of taking what I think is funny and rolling with it. Hope you liked it!
Wed, July 26th, 2017 3:14pmI agree with just about everyone here. I was half expecting the narrative to switch at some point in a long winded speech that someone would say, "Just roll the damned dice."
I wouldn't call this a Crit as they say, but I would have started with the vaporization of the Cleric. I like to start with a bang these days. But I will continue reading. And I think the title is fantastic. Drew me right in.

Hahaha, humor from you my friend? I hadn't thought I'd see the day, but you definitely managed it hahaha. Great job. I already like Neet, he reminds me a lot of a character of mine, who coincidentally was based off myself, egotistical aren't I? Hahaha. Regardless I'll be reading the rest of this story, as it's definitely caught my eye. After reading a lot of your more horror related works, I'm interested how you do comedy, so far so good my friend haha

Thu, April 26th, 2018 6:06pmI really appreciate when people write so it makes me laugh. The world is too serious already. I didn't read the whole story but just the bits and pieces are delightful.
Thu, April 26th, 2018 9:14pmHaha, I love it. Shelved. Neet sounds like some of the more irreverent NPCs from our campaign. Your style is properly dramatic and epic at times, but I love Neet's impatience with grandstanding.
I noticed a few grammatical and punctuation errors, I'll go through and Icomment them for you.
brought back some happy memories of my good old D&D days, way back when.
good bit of humour, the chapter was just a good size for some light reading.
think I will stick around for this one.
I like the light-heated approach to this, reminds me of Terry Pratchet's Death character. Very entertaining
