What, you thought we wereIn 1573, the Parliament of Dole published a decree, permitting
the inhabitants of the Franche-Comte to pursue and kill a
were-wolf or loup-garou, which infested that province,
"notwithstanding the existing laws concerning the chase."
The people were empowered to "assemble with javelins,
halberds, pikes, arquebuses and clubs, to hunt and pursue the
said were-wolf in all places where they could find it, and to
take, burn, and kill it, without incurring any fine or other
penalty." The hunt seems to have been successful, if we may
judge from the fact that the same tribunal in the following
year condemned to be burned a man named Giles Garnier, who
ran on all fours in the forest and fields and devoured little
children, "even on Friday." The poor lycanthrope, it appears,
had as slight respect for ecclesiastical feasts as the French
pig, which was not restrained by any feeling of piety from
eating infants on a fast day.

serious?

But in any case, thanks for changing the top menu if nothing else. That'll make things a bit more convenient.

Can you find Grognor a spellbookThe Book of Three lay closed on the table. Taran had never
been allowed to read the volume for himself; now he was sure
it held more than Dallben chose to tell him. In the sun-
filled room, with Dallben still meditating and showing no
sign of stopping, Taran rose and moved through the shimmering
beams. From the forest came the monotonous tick of a beetle.
His hands reached for the cover. Taran gasped in pain and
snatched them away. They smarted as if each of his fingers
had been stung by hornets. He jumped back, stumbled against
the bench, and dropped to the floor, where he put his fingers
woefully into his mouth.
Dallben's eyes blinked open. He peered at Taran and yawned
slowly. "You had better see Coll about a lotion for those
hands," he advised. "Otherwise, I shouldn't be surprised if
they blistered."

of cure sickness? He may need it.

Huh! You actually found a happy new year! I'm impressed!
It looks a bit strange, though...

Wait! That's an annual mimicThe ancestors of the modern day chameleon, these creatures can
assume the form of anything in their surroundings. They may
assume the shape of objects or dungeon features. Unlike the
chameleon though, which assumes the shape of another creature
and goes in hunt of food, the mimic waits patiently for its
meals to come in search of it.

I'd just like to call attention to how I died in this old NAO game, I think it's appropriate to the occasion!

Also, Dion, try using a CSS class something like the below for your navigation links to get a button-like effect while still remaining a regular link. :-)

.button
{background: #AAA;
border: 2px solid;
border-color: #EBECEB #636563 #636563 #EBECEB;
color: #000;
text-decoration: none;
padding: 1px 3px;}

Nah, that's ugly because they're just unlike all other buttons. I like the links. They're nice and inconspicuous.

Sure you can get color. Just have a second matrix with 0-9, A-F in it. Or something.
