Buffy Game

Friday night I ran a guest session of my brother's Buffy game, in which I threw the characters into a D&D plot (Fair Oaks and surrounding land became Barovia from Ravenloft). Pete guest-starred as Count Strahd Von Zarovich, who may become a recurring character.

The session was intended to introduce my new character, a white hat gamer who managed to stumble across the original edition of D&D, an arcane tome written in the 13th century, with spells that actually work and other mysterious properties. I played it intentionally for silly amusement value. It was sort of my version of Once More, With Feeling.

Aside from the fact that the AC at full blast was doing nothing whatsoever to cool the house and we were all therefore miserable, the game seemed to go well (if a bit long).

Finally, R.I.P. Richard Biggs, B5's Dr. Franklin.
