As I have previously mentioned in discussing Game Wizards – the non-fiction book that serves as a corporate history of Dungeons & Dragons creators TSR, Inc. – the game we know as Dungeons & Dragons grew out of a tabletop combat game called Chainmail.
Chainmail is, of course, a kind of armour.
And so is a coat of plates. Hence why Realmgard’s version of Dungeons & Dragons is called Coat of Plates.
So, anyway, here’s some scenes based on Realmgard’s most popular dice-and-imagination-based hobby.
Amara vs. Characters CLEARLY Designed by Men, Part 1
“Where are the rest of her clothes? Is she adventuring to the beach?”
She rolls her eyes.
“How vulgar. Clearly, this game was created by a man.”
Amara vs. Characters CLEARLY Designed by Men, Part 2
“Of course, the man is wearing an entire suit of armour! I swear, I shall be writing letters over this. I am going to find the people behind this game — all of them men, no doubt — and give them a piece of my mind!”
Kat of Plates
“Why am I the one in charge? I’ve played this game twice!”
“Well, none of us can be the Dungeonarrator, because we all want to play!”
“But I have to learn all this new rules!”
“Katherine, my dear, there’s no time like to the present.”
Amara Comes Around on Krimson Katja…
“This one for example, ‘Krimson Katja and the Sea-Fiends of Lake Limni’,” Amara says. “It’s only been eight paragraphs, but she’s already single-handedly defeated an entire gang of lake pirates.
“If they live in a lake, how are they Sea-Fiends?” Kat asks.
