The Thick Plottens

The Thick Plottens is the third chapter of The Way Of The Metagamer. This chapter develops the plot, introducing the dangers of Fourth Edition.

Fred Phillips is dropped into the Book, landing directly on top of Bob Miles. Fred joins Bob and Jane in their quest to escape the comic, and the three quickly run into a bunch of goblins. They only escape when Fred reveals his Morph Ball technique, and somehow Bob's size becomes reduced to miniature. Jane messes around with spells to fix that, and once it's fixed Bob forces the comic into hiatus.

Trivia

 * This chapter introduces some enemies, specifically some goblins. The party reveals their ineptitude in combat for the first time.
