Matthew Rossi @MatthewWRossi — Matthew Rossi is a synapsid, perhaps descended from Cynognathus. He was born in Providence, Rhode Island, and grew up there before leaving to see the world and be mistaken for a sasquatch and/or minor singing celebrity in various locales. He currently lives and writes in Edmonton alongside his amazing and beautiful wife and their cats. He’s written three collections of speculative fiction, Things That Never Were, Bottled Demon and At Last, Atlantis. He loves playing warriors in World of Warcraft, barbarians in Diablo III, and he’s beginning to notice a pattern here.


The Queue: A Very Light Sabre

I’ve known about this weapon for literally years, and I even knew where to get it, and I just plain never bothered despite having rolled several Gnome warriors back before it existed. And it’s very easy to get, too. Takes like five minutes. I love it most of all because it’s the exact same size as the Argent Avenger, a model I already had, but it’s a two-hander instead of a one hander so I can use it with Titan’s Grip Fury. Seriously, go roll a Gnome Warrior, play it for a few minutes, boom, you’ve got this in your transmog collection.

This is the Queue. Let’s talk about stuff.


The Queue: Gish

Some days you just want to keep things simple. Let’s talk Blizzard games, everyone.

Cael1982 did a Spellbreaker class up in the comments yesterday. It’s not something I felt like I had a great answer to for today’s Queue but if you’re into that kind of thing (I always enjoy a bit of game design for fun) you should go read it and see what you think.


The Queue: RP Edition with Shivara the Death Knight

Hi!

I’m Shivara. Some of my friends call me Shivs. I don’t think it’s a really suitable nickname, I mean, Rogues shiv people. I tend to hit them with a really big glowing sword or axe or what have you. But yeah, I’m a Death Knight. It’s nice to meet you!

What? Oh, right, the whole ‘suffer well‘ thing. Look, I get that everybody over at Acherus is super into the whole ‘we are the damned, bound to the world by chains of our own misery’ deal, but the thing is? I go out and I make other folks suffer so I don’t have to. That’s pretty much all I do. Legion demons, crazed constructs, some kind of time monster… I put the hurt on them and as long as I keep doing that, I feel just fine. And it’s not like we’re in danger of running out of targets, as soon as we get done with the Legion I’m sure some new beasties will be lining up to get my evil monster axe right in the face.

So yeah! Let’s all have fun in the Queue today. You all seem like fun types.
