The thing that interests...Thanks for the feedback.<br /><br />The thing that interests me about the GARK is his provenance, one has to assume that a half-goblin half-giant is generated in the traditional manner by a goblin and giant who love each other very much (as opposed to whatever disgusting processes are blasphemously harnessed to generate a DOG-APE). Whether the giant half of the couple is male or female, either way some fascinating questions arise as to the mechanics of the deed.<br /><br />It is an engineering problem, really.Murrayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17408095504472495097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2618556584663522444.post-38799641505530893262010-06-23T18:04:20.653-07:002010-06-23T18:04:20.653-07:00Love the stuff you're doing here!
Citadel of ...Love the stuff you're doing here!<br /><br />Citadel of Chaos was my first and most beloved Fighting Fantasy book. My favorite bit is the Gark being concerned about personal grooming and having a pretty hairbrush because it's so easy to let yourself go when you're half-giant and half-goblin.<br /><br />There's actually a couple of continuity errors that I've spotted. Brace yourself...<br /><br />(1) The illustration for the ape-dog and dog-ape shows burning torches yet the text says that "two lanterns burn on either side of the portcullis".<br /><br />(2) When the Scouts give you the Charmed Amulet the #102 text says "you place the Charmed Amulet around your neck" but later when confronting the Ganjees the #168 text says [after choosing something from your backpack] "You take out the Amulet and place it over your head."<br /><br />Shocking!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
