Essay Section
All answers must be no more than 2500 characters. Points will be removed from your final score if you do. If you need more space for your essay, ask your proctor for an additional blue book.
1) Orc and Pie – Humorous parody or acute observation on the plight of young women in today’s male dominated society?
2) OD&D – Is it the one true D&D and how do all other editions pale in comparison?
3) Tom’s 3rd edition monk needs to jump over a pit that is 11.25 feet wide by 15.84 feet long by 30.1 feet deep. The monk has a total Jump modifier of +8 but has been recently cursed so that his Strength attribute has been reduced by 6 points. He is also carrying a medium load because he ate a heavy breakfast and it isn’t sitting well with him. Given the fact that he must traverse up an incline of 27 degrees (F) and that there is a bag of marbles in front of the pit that was accidentally left there by the son of the dungeon keeper, what must Tom roll on a d20 to successfully clear the pit by 3.67 feet. Show your work.
4) You’re in a shipwreck and are currently floating in the ocean, clinging desperately to a piece of flotsam. In the distance, you spot a small island that you can easily swim to. On the way, you spot three things floating as well; a shrink-wrapped Book of Erotic Fantasy, a shrink-wrapped autographed copy of Monte Cook’s Ptolus, and a scantily-clad blonde woman who will do anything if you save her. You only have time to grab one of them before the rest are swept out to sea, never to be seen again. Which do you grab? Be honest.
5) Bards should be able to put ranks in Perform (mime) and not be ridiculed by the other players; agree or disagree? Explain your reasons. Additionally, if you chose to agree, attempt to justify your existence.
