That's interesting, but unhelpfully vague. (F&A being unhelpful, not you.) |

HAHAHA. That's amusing but so very wrong, still, it's Wiki, so why am I not surprised. |
For some of us, books are as important as almost anything else on earth. What a miracle it is that out of these small, flat, rigid squares of paper unfolds world after world, worlds that sing to you, comfort and quiet and excite you... Books are full of the things that you don't get in real life - wonderful, lyrical language, for instance, right off the bat. - Anne Lamott, Bird by Bird

| I always thought the "luminous being" creature was the DM, no more and no less, but that just happens to be the explanation I prefer. |

And a little unsettling, if only because I would hope a god of the real world (if by "God", they meant Yahweh?) would be more concerned with real people than characters in a fictional setting.
In fact, I think someone mentioned something to that effect (AO's superior is "God") on the WotC boards not too long ago. Needless to say, I think that's a bit far-fetched and not at all a fact, though it could work as someone's personal interpretation. |

What's really funny is that they make everything sound like a fact. |
