Borrowing More Trouble

...because that's what adventurers do, goshdarnit. We had another session of Jeff's Dragonlance campaign tonight. We expected Patrick to skip the session, but it turned out that (like Tom) he'd given *extremely* advance notice and not been overly clear about which session exactly he was missing, although it turned out that he had included the date.

Luis was missing, though. We're pretty sure he was gone this week intentionally. We didn't actually try to contact him, because Ed forgot the power cord for his laptop again. I guess he just carries it around under his arm, without any sort of carrying case? It wouldn't be the first time that I found I'd been taking what apparently is considered unwarranted measures to avoid some mishap.

Anyway, the game went pretty well, except that Sonnet and Mike were arguing continuously, in a tone that sort of hinted that they were realy hating each other player to player instead of character to character. And we got silly monte-haulness of treasure and XP. And a character died. And my character was reduced to int *4*.

How the hell do you play int 4 and cha 14? Maybe I can start being extremely absentminded or something; memory is a function of intelligence in D+D.

It's a good thing I don't know any area-effect spells.

Fine.

1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 23.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the sentence in your journal along with these instructions.

By definition, chars are just small integers, so char variables and constants are identical to ints in arithmatic expressions.

I liked the 'fourth line on page 18' version better... from the same book, the answer was '{'.
