Did you know...

Storm King was the name of the ship on which John Yaldwyn and James Ross travelled to Moreton Bay arriving 6 February 1872. They named both their tin mine and a nearby mountain after the ship. Then later the Stanthorpe Shire Council water supply dam was given the same name.

Back in the eighties when I was still referreing D and D my players were always the same 4 people but their characters would die on a frequent basis.

When one of the characters was on the point of dying the survivors would always ask

"When you die can I have your treasure??"

So, in that vein...

Shags, when you die can I have your treasure
