Purple Crystal of Doom

Today was Tom's RttToEE game. We're clearly nearing the end of the adventure, so it probably isn't all that horrible that my character's about to get utterly destroyed.

Can't miss RPG accessory -- SCREAMING CHILDREN AT THE TABLE! I mean, literally, Shawn had his screaming kid at the table screaming for the last half of the session, and we could barely hear each other talk. Fricking kids.
