I found my fishie!

[kiya]

So, a while ago I put together a lily tank, which lives in the green/mathom room.

In an attempt to get it to be a mostly self-sustaining thing, I got fish to give my plants CO2. Something like six months ago.

Among other things, we got a Chinese algae-eater. (We actually got several; the first batch all died, so we got one more. If I'm remembering this sequence right.)

We released the algae-eater into the wild somewhere in June or July ("New Fish Day" was 26 June last year, but that was the one where all the algae-eaters died).

We have not seen it since.

Before today.


It's huge. Something like three inches long, and chubby. (When we got it it was an inch long and ittle.)

It's also vanished again. :}

I remember you told me about the Girl Scout and her minor case of angst at the Lilim that did scout's-honor.

I want to pick up more of the books and peer at them. It's a really neat world-construction, just as a starter. And worldbuilding well-done tends to give me Ideas.

(I think I only have the main book and Infernal PG. And maybe one of the Liber something-or-others.)

The Superiors series is very good, as well as the Game Master's Guide, Corporeal Player's Guide. The Libers are very useful, but more as utilities and reference books rather than inspiration (IMNSHO). You Are Here includes some very nice locations, including a few that are adventure seeds in their own right. (Check out "The Camp" for an example.) The Ethereal Players Guide is conceptually interesting and has some good mechanics for playing with the Marches, but it's pretty remote from the focus of the rest of the books. You might get some nifty ideas from it; it's just that they wouldn't fit in well with a standard angels vs. demons game.

Want to come over and look at my books sometime?

*takes notes on book recommendations*

I'm not sure I'd fit well in a standard Avs.D game; I have too much of a tendency to go around the edges of things . . . But gaming materials are great resources even outside of games, for me. Writing stuff.

I may want to come and peer at books sometime, perhaps when my life is slightly less ngaaarghle.
