Character BuildingA Poem by Wynter IgnatiusThere is more to this than it appears even if I enjoy pen and paper games...Gather your dice up Roll for your score Write down your results See where you end up Do you have the strength To carry the load To push without breaking To lift, not throw To be there when needed the most Gather your dice up Roll for your score Write down your results See where you end up Do you have the dexterity To use a soft touch To guide things along To dodge the pitfalls To have the finesse in all manners Gather your dice up Roll for your score Write down your results See where you end up Do you have the constitution To endure the storms To weather errant ills To fight off attacks To keep up when you are relied upon Gather your dice up Roll for your score Write down your results See where you end up Do you have the intelligence To see past illusions To not have to ask To pose the right questions To know when your words are most needed Gather your dice up Roll for your score Write down your results See where you end up Do you have the wisdom To learn from your mistakes To judge all fairly To not fall into folly To determine what matters to you most Gather your dice up Roll for your score Write down your results See where you end up Do you have the charisma To keep your presence To enchant your queen To show devotion to others To be personable around those closest to you Your character is left wanting Too weak for this adventure Yet you make your efforts Just to play the game
