Fire is flashy, but Earth does have the overwhelming aura of inevitability about it. This was brought home to me by the first edition of the Dungeons & Dragons Manual of the Planes. It points out that it's relatively easy to survive on the elemental plane…

Hephaestus was the Greek god of craftsmen and blacksmiths, and by extension technology, and also of volcanoes. Having your armour forged by the god ofblacksmiths himself would usually be seen as a pretty good way to ensure that the armour would properly…

I heard this joke the other day and fell over laughing so hard that I had to do my part to distribute it more widely. I think the thing I hate most about taxi drivers is how they think that turning on their hazard lights gives them the authority to stop…

The earth elemental miniature was donated by the same reader as the fire elemental miniature we saw a few strips ago. It's a little hard to see it, but it's another very fine paint job by this generous reader. 2025-03-21 Rerun commentary: Maybe that's why…

There's a reason Poland is not well known for its wines. 2025-03-20 Rerun commentary: Lest I be seen as dismissive, there is a wine industry in Poland. Pretty much based on cool climate grapes, as one might expect. Though as Wikipedia's article notes,…

I bet you forgot this little character detail about Paris, right? Okay, maybe it's never been mentioned in the strip before, but that's no excuse. 2025-03-19 Rerun commentary: This character quirk is based on the actual backstory of the character Paris…

Of course any Dungeons & Dragons player worth their salt will know that all of those items are dangerous. Especially the pools of water. 2025-03-18 Rerun commentary: Pools of water feature in the very first published Basic Dungeons & Dragons adventure:…

I suggest writing out some receipts for donations to restore the flow of history and claiming them off your next tax return. And if the Australian Taxation Office is reading this... er... it's a real deduction. Honest. 2025-03-17 Rerun commentary: Better…

I first experienced rum babas on a trip to Italy some years ago. I've since tried to find the same delicious sweets locally, and there are a few cake shops that make them, but somehow they've never come close to tasting as good as the ones I had in Italy. …

Of course technically the Palladium is Trojan, not Greek. And the Fleece spent most of its history in Colchis, not Greece. But you know what he means. 2025-03-15 Rerun commentary: Also in that room: the Cornucopia, the Caduceus of Hermes, the Apple of…

I reckon there should be wandering monster checks in real life. Once an hour or so, you should have a 1 in 6 chance of coming across some strange creature who might rip your head off. But who might equally as well have a stomach full of gold if you cut it…
