"extremely rare" and "you'll probably never see another one like it" are bad enough...but then to advertise it as "autographed" is just way too much!!! :roll:

But just watch the newbs fight over it...

Um, maybe someone should send her an email and tell her that they are ALL like that. :roll:

Leave him alone. He's a Gold-Plated, Ruby-Encrusted Infinite-Level Powergaming DM. If you pick on him, 10d6 blue bolt on the top of the head, guaranteed.
