Plot summary
Lodge wants his gaming group to finish their adventure, but the players would rather flirt with barmaids, moon their enemies and set random villagers on fire. The adventure is meant to save a kingdom from the evil necromancer Mort Kemnon, who could otherwise triumph unopposed. Desperate to rein his players in, Lodge introduces two newcomers to the group. One is a non-player character that Lodge controls himself, and the power gamers immediately distrust it. The other is a girl, the rarest gamer of all. The group bickers among themselves while Lodge works to keep them on the adventure, which parodies fantasy films and the adventure gaming community.
