Wow! Epic Fail is too good. It feels like it has been more than a year since I’ve been part of a regular game. Oh, what I mean by a game is a Role Playing Game, the kind where a bunch of friends get together and make characters with crazy abilities that you whish you had in real life. Then you travel through the woods looking for adventure or waiting for adventure to find you.
One of the components of Role Playing adventures are twenty sided dice. You role dice and do some math to determine your success or failure at some heroic task. Most gamers play with Epic rules allowing for critical successes and critical failures, or epic failures. An epic failure is when a 1 is rolled on a 20 sided die. Typically, a failure of this magnitude is followed by the Game Master, the person in charge of the story telling and all the creepy crawlies, telling you to role another die. This time, the die will determine what will happen because of your blundering, examples: killing your friend, stepping in fire, breaking your sword on a rock, slicing your own hand off.
Epic Fail is a humorous web comic staring Martin, a Human Fighter; Amuletts, Sylvan Elf Thief and Cleric; Clodin, Dwarf Fighter; Tinuvielle, Fae Elf Mage; and Dirk, Human Paladin.
The adventures these characters embark upon are destined to bring a smile to any comic book fan as they bungle their way through one failure after another.
