  • |Warhammer Fantasy: Empire of Man| |The Halflings of the Moot|
    |Warhammer Fantasy: Empire of Man| |The Halflings of The Moot| Straddling the River Aver between the borders of Averland and Stirland, there exists a stretch of rolling hills and near-endless fields of green grass and farmland. Mootland, or otherwise called ‘The Moot,’ is the home of the Halflings: Short, pot-bellied, chubby-faced humanoids that almost resemble the children of Man, and indeed seem to have existed alongside Mankind since the tribes first crossed the World’s Edge Mountains. None know where the Halflings originated from, and indeed even the Halflings themselves don’t seem to care one wit for their past. Likely, Ranald created them as some bizarre joke. But that’s neither here nor there. For all that the halflings appreciate the comforts of home - chief among them being food, alcohol, pipeweed, and the chance to skip out on a hard day’s work - life isn’t always so easy for the little folk. The Moot sits in an admittedly precarious position, for its easterly border is along the edge of Sylvania. That cursed land, ruled by the walking dead and the ever-duplicitous Mannfred von Carstein, is enough to make even a jolly old halfling grow serious and attentive. To Mootland’s south runs a spur of the World’s Edge Mountains, with its myriad tunnels and caverns hosting terrible beasties and monsters: Night goblin warbands, orc tribes, skaven scouting parties, and even trolls wishing to fill their bellies. And unfortunately, even amongst the states of the Empire, halflings experience their own share of prejudice and hatred from the Tall Folk.

Miss Deravin was a socialite whose death was widely reported in the press.

  • Embracing the Took : Kinship Between Middle Earth and Sixties Youth
    WATKINS, SHANA, M.A. Embracing the Took: Kinship Between Middle Earth and Sixties Youth. (2007) Directed by Dr. Hephzibah Roskelly. 75 pp. The purpose of this thesis is to quash the reading of J.R.R. Tolkien’s works as allegory, especially as allegory for the events of the turbulent 1960s, i.e. the Vietnam War, 1967’s Summer of Love, the women’s liberation movement, etc. By addressing each of the Sixties’ infamous political and social movements, tragedies, victories, and controversies, this paper proves that the members of the Baby Boomer generation were inspired by the events described in Tolkien’s primary works, The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings. Middle Earth’s events in the novels resounded throughout the Sixties, but were not actually about the Sixties, nor were they allegories of any previous decade, as some critics claim. Being a time of social unrest and demand for government and social revamping, the Sixties provided a particularly enthralled audience for the fantasy genre because it provided an alternative to mainstream literature. Sixties youth – part of which came to be known as the counterculture – demanded alternatives in nearly every facet of the American lifestyle, from the young rock-and-roll music genre to rebellious young celebrity idols like James Dean who contrasted Sixties parents’ idea of glamorous and wholesome movie stars whose film and television characters strove to acquire the materialistic American dream. This thesis discusses themes that Tolkien’s works and the Sixties had in common: namely, generational inheritance and rebellion; authority and isolation; social awakening; distrust and cynicism; reluctant and unlikely heroes; gender issues; activism; and hippie- ism.

  • Collectors Checklist by Richard © 2001, Version 2.7
    Dungeons&Dragons Collectors Checklist by Richard © 2001, version 2.7 Well met and welcome to the Collectors Checklist! I made this checklist for myself to keep track of what TSR products I own. Many times was I in the position to photocopy (“Xerox”) a module or booklet that the owner didn’t wish to sell. So gradually my collection expanded with not only genuine products but also with photocopies. Since the coming of the officially digitized classic products (PDF) it is even harder to keep track of what product you own in what format. With the Collectors Checklist you will be able to sort your whole Dungeons&Dragons collection, no matter what the format is! For those out there who haven’t got a clue, here’s how to use the Collectors Checklist: TSR-Code : The product’s publishing code Sub-Code : When a product belongs to a specific group of products it carries this code Title : The product’s title (dah!) Hardcopy : Check this if you have the original item Copy : Check this if you have a copy (Xeroxcopy for instance) of the original product PDF : Check this if you have a digital copy(.pdf/.doc/etc.) of the original product HINT: you can even write down the number when you own more than one copy of a product ; ) If you think any items are missing, please mail me at [email protected] . Feel free to copy/share/print this list. Please visit these websites for the best Dungeons&Dragons archives on the Internet : http://www.acaeum.com http://home.flash.net/~brenfrow/index.htm .
