There's a new Risus PBEM set in Uresia, S. John's cool fantasy world, just now starting up at Yahoogroups; to subscribe, send a blank email to ...
This is a possible character or NPC for the Shadow River PBEM. Ginsu the Keen, a Dreed gourmand who roams the world in search of the ultimate dining...
I've made this character for the PBEM game set in S.John's Uresia setting: Shadow River. Tell me what you think. Do you think it has a place in the Rogue's ...

I like the concept, but I have a question regarding his dice: I may be adding up the dice wrong, but doesn't Ombre's total equal 12 instead of 10? Or am I...
I know I'm replying to myself, but as I look, the others have 12 dice, too. Is this due to the structure of the PBEM? or again, am I missing something (like...

I'd like to get an opinion on a possible use of Questing Dice in a new Risus adaptation I'm working on (working title is RisusQuest). Glorantha is the world...

... get ... Err... Yeah! ... What are you waiting for?...
"Starting?" I'm getting mine (along with the rest of Mr. Ross' kitNcaboodle on CD) as soon as I get my student refund check. The thing I can't stand is the...
Hi Guy, interesting idea, though I feel that Questing dice might not be as powerful as Gloranthan magic. How would you, for example, handle Levitation? (In the...
Hi Florian, Actually, I had similar thoughts after posting that message, but that was enough to revive another old project of mine: a wacky campaign set in the...
At last I've finished the first draft of "Woad Warriors", my wacky version of British Celts at the time of the Roman conquest. If you're so inclined, have a...
Well, I hope everybody has by now spotted the cunning test that I inserted into the last correction... http://www.guyhoyle.com/risus/WoadWarriors.htm...
I figured it out!!!! The correct URL for Guy's Woad Warriors is: http://www.guyhoyle.net/risus/WoadWarriors Anyway, I thought it was pretty good, I liked the...
OK, now that I've had a few hours sleep... The CORRECT URL to my Woad Warriors writeup is at http://www.guyhoyle.net/risus/WoadWarriors.htm I think. Guy...

Shoot! I had thought I could put together a sourcebook for playing in the Asterix milieu (or is that 'milieux'?). Now someone has beatne me to it! Shoot! Hank...
... Bang! ... Well, it's not EXACTLY Asterix, so feel free to come up with one. Or come up with some suggestions for me, if you're so inclined! BTW, I'm ...
