Why yes, there are chicks there. Roll to see if you can do them.

Dunegon Majesty! In what must be an accomplishment worthy of The Gygax himself, this guy found four girls willing to not only play D&D, but brave enough to be filmed while doing so. The fact that they're also willing to dress up as their characters is just icing on the cake. Be sure to check out the teaser video and learn a little something about courage!

Reminds me of the excellent Knightmare. The blue screening is pretty damn poor though...

is it more pathetic that they spent so much time making something like that, or that I understood all of it?

Yeah, well I'm a female and I run D&D! (Well, ok, I prefer Champions, but I do run a couple of D&D games at conventions). I don't dress up as my character though.

In a similar vein, Dungeon Master, complete with embedded WMA theme!

I my GOD how funny and lame! That's just amazing.

My name is Civil Disobedient, and I endorse this FPP.

This just scares me. (And I was one of the few, the proud, the female D&D GMs.)

My name is Dejah420, and I endorse Civil Disobedient endorsing that which he endorses.

robocop is bleeding, thanks for the healing. Making dinner and defeating my cats has just gone totally +1.

That WPI education is good for something: someone mentions girls dressing up in chainmail and cloaks and playing D&D, I think, yeah, so?

That made me all *icky* inside. Just like if someone forced me to watch hardcore porn with my mom.

Of course she really couldn't coup de grace the prone monster because she moved first. But you all knew that.

The SO: "Is that really what playing Dungeons and Dragons is like?"

Me: "Yeah, 'cept there's no girls."

Best dungeon master ever?

"Two bolts of energy whip out and smack the thing in the face."

Err... maybe not. But they've definitely worked natural twenty back into my vernacular! Now you'll have to excuse me, I gotta get back to attacking the darkness.

Hah! Bonus points for the X-Files episode reference. Wow. That broadcast in April of '96. I'm getting old.

teradome, have you seen this which recently made an appearance on Metafilter?

the same audio bit 3d animated with character models from the computer games "summoner" and "red faction".

That was pretty uninspiring. Was that a carrion crawler they fought?

So it's cool when chicks pretend to be warriors and druids and such and its completely uncool when guys do it? It would have been cooler if they'd all been teleported to the Wicked Pit of Jello Wrestling.

By the way, what kind of a lame ass DM has a shirt with a hand written DM on it? And his cape came off as just a bit sissy.
