  • Canadian Guiding Badges and Insignia Brownie Six/Circle Emblems
    Canadian Guiding Badges And Insignia Brownie Six/Circle Emblems Following the introduction of the Brownie program to provide Guiding for younger girls, and after the decision to base the new program on The Brownie Story, a further decision was made in 1919 to subdivide a Brownie Pack into smaller groups consisting of six girls. These smaller groups within the Pack were known as Sixes and were identified by a Six emblem bearing the name of some mythical fairy- like person from folklore. [Reference: POR (British, 1919)] The original Six emblems were brown felt; later versions were brown cotton with the edges bound in brown. In 1995, the term “Sixes” was replaced by the term “Circles”, and the shape of the emblems was changed as well. In 1972, three of the original twelve Six emblems were retired and in 1995 four new ones were added.

  • The Gremlin: Transforming the Past's Failures 161 the Eagle Squadron, a Noted "Gremlinologist," Who Had Heard Many Such Tales and Was Beginning to Collect Them
    The Gremlin: Transfor111ing the Past's Failures BRUCE A. ROSENBERG A MERICAN MOTORS CORPORATION entered the sub-compact field in 1970 with a sturdy little car it named the Gremlin. Its rear door-window (the hatch-back) descends so abruptly from the vehicle's roof that it gives it the appearance of having been cut off before it finished growing (or perhaps the way that Sir Yvain's horse was cut off at the hind quarter by the falling portcullis at the castle of Esclados the Red). The company it- self exploits the car's looks in television commercials which depict a snide and burly service-station attendant asking a pretty young driver about the "rest" of her car. But the ad concludes with the important message that though the car might have unorthodox looks it is economical to drive: the girl smugly and tauntingly hands her torrnentor a dollar bill for gas. What is most incongruous in all this, particularly for those people with clear memories of World War II, is the very name of the car, Gremlin. Historically this is the least likely name for a machine imaginable. But apparently not for the general public, and presumably not for the staff at American Motors which named the car several years ago. The company must have assumed, or conducted extensive field research which demonstrated, that car buyers would think of pixies, sprites, or other varieties of the "wee folk" when they heard the name Gremlin. The name conjures up an image of a small, compact creature (verymuch like the car), who is harmless, playful, and whimsical, perhaps something like the Celtic elf who sells the breakfast cereal, "Lucky Charms." When they first became known to Americans in 1942 (Gremlins had already made the acquaintance of the R.A.F.), they were the subject of several articles in leading magazines, and their diminutive stature was usually featured.

There had been numerous stories about local fairies and other fantastical creatures written in Australia prior to 1925, including the Reverend Charles Marson's Faery Stories (Marson 1891) and the many small booklets, articles and monographs by artist Ida Rentoul Outhwaite and her sister Annie from 1903; and May Gibbs' fairy-like Gumnut Babies from 1916 (Gibbs 1916, Organ 2012).

  • A Kobold Revolution This Is the First Ever Dungeons and Dragons Adventure to Be Published in Sapere Aude
    A Kobold Revolution This is the first ever Dungeons and Dragons adventure to be published in Sapere Aude. Roleplaying games are not a storytelling medium that most people are literate in. What is a d20, and what do you do with it when your Game Master (GM) says “make a Charisma check?” Games are a rich storytelling medium, one that grants its players the ability to craft a completely unique story with them as the stars. By publishing this adventure in the pages of Sapere Aude, I hope to show to you that roleplaying games are not just entertainment, but a medium of literary escape, social bonding, team building, and creative thinking every bit as potent as a novel, a play, or a puzzle. A Kobold Revolution is not a typical Dungeons and Dragons (D&D) experience. It is not one in which a group of lawless adventurers enter a monster-infested dungeon, slaughter its inhabitants, and leave with their gold. This adventure provides the framework to tell the story of how five puny creatures stood up to a mighty tyrant, and how they prevailed and achieved their freedom— or failed, and were brutally suppressed. The outcome of the story depends on the actions of the players, and the players have total freedom in how they choose to act. This act of roleplaying invests the players deeply into the story and requires them to think cleverly about how their character would overcome the challenges placed before them. The “adventure module” is an unusual art form, because it is incomplete. In that way, it is similar to the script of a play—though instead of being filled with concrete dialogue and stage direction, it is filled with charts, numbers, maps, and read-aloud text that encourages the reader to paraphrase and improvise as frequently as they wish.
