| Very nice. I haven't been to the WOTC site in awhile. This looks like a reason to return. |

I didn't picture him that butt-ugly.  |

If you think about it Mirt could be a bit on the ugly side. I kinda saw him as a wheezy, sweaty type who may have been good looking once but past his prime by several years. Not a bad guy but lacking in the 'beauty' department. |

I had pictured him being an older, fatter version of a guy who was once 'ruggedly handsome'. Never a 'pretty' man, but one with with a chiseled, 'outdoorsey' look about him (think cowboy). But now old and fat.
That guy doesn't really look like he was ever even slightly attractive (and he looks like a drunk, to boot).
Which unfortunately makes the whole thing with Asper even creepier. The art has given him a 'Wicked Uncle Ernie' quality, IMO.
Not that that has any effect on the article - I still enjoyed it (although we here at the keep knew most of that already). I am assuming this is to be an introduction-style article for those learning about FR for the first time; hopefully future articles will tell us some stuff we didn't know. |

The first scroll on this topic... |
"These things also I have observed: that knowledge of our world is
to be nurtured like a precious flower, for it is the most precious
thing we have. Wherefore guard the word written and heed
words unwritten and set them down ere they fade . . . Learn
then, well, the arts of reading, writing, and listening true, and they
will lead you to the greatest art of all: understanding."
