  THE SCORE
  A philosopher once described life 
  as “nasty, Brutish and short”  
  so are you
  Just on the edge of the human kingdom lies a valley whose cliff faces 
  are riddled with caves.  In these caves dwell a surprising variety of 
  monstrous races: sneaky goblins, downtrodden kobolds, savage orcs, 
  enormous ogres and stranger things still.  These monstrous peoples 
  are only tenuously united by the common worship of the bloody god 
  Zemox.
  The human Baron of Restwell Keep is supposed to keep the monsters 
  under control, but there isn’t much he can do.  Sure, every year or two 
  you get a couple of self proclaimed “heroes” coming in to wipe out 
  the monsters.  But most of these adventuresome kids wind up on the 
  wrong end of a glaive-guisarme.  The monsters, they stick around.  
  The biggest threat to the monsters isn’t the human warriors, but the 
  constant infighting between monstrous tribes.  Gathering together 
  this many violent subhumans in one place is a surefire recipe for di-
  saster.  The valley is a fiasco, just waiting to happen.
  MOVIE NIGHT
  Hellboy 2: The Golden Army, Invader Zim, Labyrinth,  Rosencrantz 
  and Guildenstern are Dead (really), any low budget or badly made 
  fantasy movie (perhaps the terrible D&D movies)
