Monster Manual song, Wuxia campaign and Wu Shui campaign
Just a few updates. Check out this Dungeons & Dragons Monster Manual song (from Laughing Squid):

In other news, Jonathan Drain posted a campaign brief that’s Wuxia-based. Wuxia means martial arts in Chinese, typically with pugilists running/flying on water. Or able to leap over tall buildings with a single bound from stepping on a leaf. Yes, seriously. I feel the decidedly Oriental feel to be interesting.
Philippe-Antoine Ménard aka Chatty DM also posted his idea of a new campaign called “Gears of Ruin“. The point that struck me most was the “water is scarce” part. Bringing us to the Wu Shui explanation. “Wu” means “nothing”, or “none”, or “don’t have” in Chinese (it loses a bit in translation). “Shui” means “water”.

Math Wizard
You will experience possibly the smartest character build ever in D&D 4th edition. To use the Math Wizard build effectively, you might actually have to understand math principles. Shocking, I know.

I play D&D semi-regularly. I like magic users (thus mostly falling into controller roles). I tell funny adventure stories.
I also write about math and programming and other interesting topics at polymathprogrammer.com. I publish a monthly online magazine Singularity for curious artists and intellectuals.
