Gary Fest 3 Results

Well, the game came and went. It was an interesting evening to say the least. I got the chance to see my friend Yves for the first time in 10 years. He played a classic dwarf warrior. JP played a cleric and Simon played an androgynous elf warrior/magic-user.

My concept for the game was a search and rescue mission led by the cleric. My serious development took a backseat to the antics of the elf, sadly.

Still, we had fun using the Swords & Wizardry rules which aim to recreate the original classic Gary Gygax & Dave Arneson version of D&D. The Sleep spell details are WHACKED by the way.
