“Inspiration comes from many sources. Any Dungeon Master worth their sodium chloride will tell you that even the smallest gag or silliest pun can provide rich material for a Dungeons & Dragons campaign. That was the case for The Dead Milkmen superfan Andrew Ervin, who used the band’s song “Bitchin’ Camaro” as the basis for a playable module. And he chose the perfect venue to debut Lost Tomb of the Bitchin’ Chimera.”

“I feel like everyone in the world needs to know about this.”

“I’m here to share with you a nugget of wisdom from over forty years in the games business: a game should be fun! This deranged module, Lost Tomb of the Bitchin’ Chimera, comes with My Personal Guarantee–not that you will survive it, because who could guarantee that? No, in fact, you will suffer. What I do guarantee is that you’ll enjoy every minute.”
– Lawrence Schick, author of White Plume Mountain
“As with any good writer, Ervin followed the thing capturing his attention, and decided to use it to create a narrative—he sat down and wrote a D&D module (a scenario used as the setting and set of encounters for a group of players) of his own, one that combined the game with another thing near and dear to his heart, the Philly punk band The Dead Milkmen. First written as a one-off adventure to play with his friends before a concert by the band, the module has been expanded and fine-tuned.”
– Matthew Simmons, Brooklyn Rail
“Presumably, this means you need to roll a D20 to see if you can jump up on the table and shout ‘Anarchy!'”
