And I was thinking it was a book about things to do on an interstate bus trip when you get bored.

In a very general sense, these items surely are rare.. but not in the collecting community.

The mind boggles why this is listed under roleplaying ....

cgi.ebay.com/IMAGE-LIFELIKE-FEEL-STICKS ... dZViewItem

I can see the gaming session now. The mighty barbarian is stamping down the forrest path when *misses saving throw* he steps in doggie poo.

If any roleplayers need doggie poo to make their scenes more realistic then I am sure my dog is more than happy to produce more poo for you. After all he is a cross between a shitzu and a poodle or as he is commonly referred to: a Shit Poo. :lol:

It's a question of what type of roleplaying is involved...ewwwwww.

As a seller, if one has Books I, III, and V of Swordbearer, how does that become "I believe all the original contents are included"? Does the seller count only odd Roman numerals?

WHAT?! You mean that the Roman alphabet doesn't actually count up 1, 3, 5, etc.? What a moron. :roll:

Ah, but it has been "used by excellent condition". Wasn't he a famous roleplayer?

A quote from the listing:

This auction is for the 1982 Heritage USA fantasy role-playing game Swordbearer by B. Dennis Sustare with Arnold Hendrick, illustrated by Denis Loubet and David Helber.

What I wonder is......is that the Sustare of the Chariot of Sustare spell?
