Dungeon & Dragons: The Hall of Bones

[Andrew]

When their magical items suddenly run out of juice, the kids are left up a Greyhawk creek without a paddle+3.  Is there a way to recharge the weapons, or has Vengar finally won?

I'm betting when they ran into Lolth. They stepped through a Portal to the Abyss. That Halfling had not trousers! Gross! I had a friend that killed Demagorgan with a poisoned arrow. Save vs death or die. Well Demagorgon did. By the early rules. He could do that.

Jeez...I haven't thought about the giants, Drow, Kuo-Toa and Lloth in years!  That was one of the first campaigns I ever played.  Shame that Lloth couldn't have eaten the little brats from this show.  I was an older player when it came on so I was not very fond of it.  Especially that kid pulling crap from his hat...I man, come on!  I kept waiting for Bullwinkle to show up and kick his butt for stealing the moose's joke.

Man, this show freaked me out as a kid.  Shame it sucks now...

The thing I never quite got was, if they were going to do a grossly pared-down version of something out of the game (because, honestly, there's no way half of the stuff in there would have made it onto Saturday morning television in the '80s), why did they always call it by the same NAME as the dangerous thing? If all they wanted was product recognition, surely they could have used a name-derived-from, or, should trademark issues be involved, say something like "an emissary of Lloth," thereby generating interest on the part of non-fans, getting a nod from fans, and not ticking off the latter group intensely by presenting a two-story in the suburbs as Wayne Manor and expecting any response other than hysterical laughter.
