Fools, April of.

I've been poking the internet off and on all night, and was starting to wonder if the April Fool's joke this year was that we weren't having April Fools. Finally, though, it looks like Google and WotC have their goofy pages up.

I enjoyed the D&D Errata and the article about changes to the minis game, particularly:

Page 99 – New Feat [Addition]
Add the following feat:
Prepared for Anything
You are proficient with a towel. You always have a towel with you.
Prerequisite: Your character must be in the Spelljammer setting.
Benefit: You are able to use a towel for any of the following:
1. Keep your head warm while traveling the moons of Jaglan Beta.
2. Lie on the beautiful beaches of Santraginus V.
3. Sleep in the deserts of Kakrafoon.
4. Create a sail and ride a mini-raft on the rivers of Moth.
5. Use it in unarmed combat.
6. Protect yourself from the awful fumes of a Bugblatter Beast.
7. Wave the towel as a distress signal.
8. Dry yourself off.


and...

Currently, there's little crossover between D&D Miniatures and My Little Pony, but our market research shows that both customer groups like the same things -- magic, castles, unicorns, and imagination! We already have sketches for a Butter Pop mount, and the stats for Pinkie Pie with Mind Flayer Lich Rider are going to blow people away. That will be a must-have piece on the tournament circuit.
