Memory Lane
Posted by Zel-kun on May 25th, 2006 filed in Random BitsI have been going through my archives, which usually doesn’t turn up anything I didn’t expect. This time was different, as I found maps I don’t remember making, outlines for stories I’ve completely changed since, and most importantly, Bowen Garamonde’s character sheet.
Now, for those who know me, Bowen Garamonde is my roleplaying name. But, this is no ordinary character sheet, this is my original Warhammer character sheet, from my first tabletop roleplaying game, back from when I was eighteen. So looking at it brings back fond memories of ages past. But, more importantly, it brings riddles and odd looks from me as I gaze at the inventory list and wonder “what the hell was I on?”
Bowen’s Inventory (abbreviated):
1ft Jade Stick: increases range by 2DC (I have no idea what the hell that means)
Lycanthrope Wax Mold (ewha?)
3 Silver Pens (I have no idea)
Grave Dust (while I could say it was a reagent for a spell, I had a paladin, so I have no idea what Bowen was doing with the stuff. I suspect he was snorting it)
Liat x20 (Umm…. what?)
Large Bottle of Gryphon Blood (while I remember killing a gryphon and putting its blood in a bottle, I can’t really determine why. I think Bowen was secretly a vampire)
So, there’s some of the more bizarre items. Also on the sheet is a giant mathematical addition and subtraction chain detailing exp gains and expendetures. Warhammer really needed a simpler exp system.
In other news, people keep coming to my site looking for the oddest things, I submit to you, a few of my stats:
1 quotes about fake people
1 new wendy’s commercial song
1 ‘wendy’s magic carpet’ commercial
1 quotes from howl’s moving castle
1 how to insalt someone
1 new wendy’s commercial song magic carpet ride
1 final fantasy vii zack quotes
1 magic carpet wendy’s commercial
1 civilization iv copy
1 magic carpet ride wendy’s commercial
1 japanese restaraunts
1 magic carpet ride wendy’s
How to ‘INSALT?’ The hell?
And, my personal favorite, and it is my belief that programmers out there need to drop what they’re doing and make this game right now:
“The Legend Of Zel”
Yes, a game about me and my greatness, that would rock so hard.
And, lastly, but certainly not leastly, I have an announcement to make. I am now dating a fiery redhead:
I think I could get used to putting pictures on this site. It adds a bit of color and life to the page. Welp, that’s all I have for now.
Zel-kun out.

Darling, you need to get a better picture of me on there! I look awful!!
May 28th, 2006 at 7:51 pm
No, you look great! And red really suits you and your personality!

Yeah, the hair looks good. The pose is a bit sub-flattering, tho. Candid, etc. J goes through the digi-cam and deletes any pics of her that aren’t carefully or accidentally posed and don’t involve her having her face on. She learned from Dita Von Teese…

Oh, got completely distracted. Anyway, looking at old character sheets is fun–I dredged up my first Paladin not so long ago and converted him to 3.5! Some of the magic was lost, though…

Well, it’s a less than glamous photo. But for a candid pic I think it came out fine.
As noted by David I live in horror of candid pics and am not above erasing them from existance.
But the red is very beautiful dahling. It suits your skin tone really well. Not many can pull that color off.
