‘Twas a D20 Christmas
by Elise M. Gross‘Twas the night before Christmas, & in the game room of the house
we rolled our D20’s, hoping to hit the cross-breed Bugbear-Mouse.
Our sock-monkey stockings were hung by our chimney with care
in the hopes that Saint Cthulhu would soon be there.
The rum-laden-nog was sending warmth to my head
while we conjured visions of our Bugbear foe dead.
Our wizard & rogue were checking for traps,
while our paladin & monk readied for the attack.
When 10 feet above us there arose such a clatter–
our ranger readied his bow, in case something was the matter.
Above us — a gust, a terrifying flash!
A mighty roar while giant teeth gnashed!
A fire, on the breast of the new-fallen snow,
gave the lustre of mid-day to our faces below.
When what to our wandering eyes did appear
but a mighty red dragon! With a wicked-fierce sneer!
A swish of his tail, he knocked the barbarian back with a flick
and our ranger shot arrow after arrow — so quick!
More rapid than eagles, our spells, arrows, & daggers flew
slashing through the mighty beast’s armour, their aim true.
Go Ranger! Go Rogue! Go little Wizard gnome!
Go Monk! Go Paladin! This wicked beast is done!
The Barbarian gives it the final blow,
And we are left to rejoice in the newly-melted snow.
