A ghost? What's the deal? Is every frat on this campus haunted? And if so, why do people keep coming to these parties, cause it's not the snacks.

OMG! same brute is still alive in the latest tournament. Survived 5 rounds! Waiting for next opponent. He has a net. I'm worried. If he nets the wolf (and doesn't strike him), she could be done for. Anyone want to be pupil of a contenda? [link]

Holy cow! 136 points of damage in one smackdown! Impressive. Does he do that in every fight? How's he stacking up in tournaments?

Nope, not every fight. His success in tournaments is variable. Still, it'll be a long time before he has a chance of winning. the tournament winners are usually anything from level 30 to 70.

I don't know. I see yours managed seven, and I think that's probably one more than my best.

And you got taken down HARD. Still, you were level 5 v 10. And not only that, he's a powerful level 10; take a look at all the powers he has. No wonder he inflicted almost 60 points with that club!

Especially if the right addons were developed, this could blow Fantasy Grounds and other virtual tabletop tools into the stone age.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

And they will be, given the APIs available and the overall openness of the system.

You seem to be assuming that there is overlap between the programming and role-playing game communities.

You seem to be assuming that there is overlap between the programming and role-playing game communities.

Considering that many current RPG sites have developer communities creating all kinds of web tools, program extensions, and even iPhone apps, that's not an assumption. It's a reality.
