So sorry I’m late on getting this published, but after six days straight of working, I needed to get some sleep. Plus, I was worrying myself about how I was supposed to answer this question, and I am literally at a loss at how to complete today’s challenge topic. You’d think that nearly a month…

When I was younger, I didn’t really pay attention to things like inclusiveness or diversity. It wasn’t something I thought about because, you guessed it, I had a ton of privilege. For much of my youth, I was a young, white cis-het woman in a very conservative environment, and the great majority of what I…

Taako has so many memorable moments, courtesy of Justin McElroy, that it’s difficult to pick just one. From his “abraca-fuck you!” to his previously mentioned reunion with Kravitz, it really does seem like it’s a nonstop barrage of hilarity and/or poignancy. I mean, mostly hilarity because he can’t stay serious for more than a few…

Out of the boys, Merle is my favorite. Sure, I adore Taako and Magnus, and it does seem like Merle isn’t the most consistent or prominent of the three. He doesn’t have the same type of tie-in story as the others do, with Taako and his sister, Lup, and Magnus and his path to discovering…

Magnus Burnsides, the protection fighter, was definitely my least favorite of the Tres Horny Boys at the beginning. Maybe it was the bravado or maybe it was Travis McElroy’s delivery, I can’t really be sure. He played him well, understanding the initial core of his character – “Magnus rushes in” – but it just seemed…

I kind of gave myself away yesterday with my least favorite villain, so I’ll just put it above the cut: the Hunger. Yes, yes, I know. It’s the ultimate villain in the Balance series of The Adventure Zone, and its defeat (spoiler alert?) at the hands of the IPRE/BoB folks brings about a peace the main characters had…

Happy Presidents’ Day, everybody! A day that most government employees have off that will probably be spent sitting around and doing nothing! Or shopping! I happened to treat myself to a Fitbit Charge 3 (yay sales!), but I took care of that on Saturday, so my Presidents’ Day will be spent writing. But anyway, onto…

Okay, so, unlike yesterday’s challenge, this one actually is hard because Griffin did such a good job of creating characters that you fall in love with. Even characters you don’t really like have a lot of redeeming qualities and backstories that, while they don’t necessarily excuse their behavior, definitely explain where they are coming from.…

Augh, I almost missed posting this because of various reasons, mainly stemming from some personal stuff going on (more on that probably later on?), but never fear! Today’s challenge is here! The world of The Adventure Zone is full of memorable, lovable NPCs (non-player characters, for those not in-the-know), all voiced by the indomitable Griffin McElroy, who…

Today is a special one because not one, but two birthdays are going on: my loving father and my surprisingly zippy, eleven-year-old bulldog, Zola! And because today is what it is, I am going to be quick about today’s challenge. After all, how am I supposed to celebrate the births of two of the greatest creatures on…
