The cover can also be found there. Oedipussy Rex's Sorcerer Character Has Warrior Adventure , from this thread on Dragonsfoot.org You can also find a support forum here: http://tripleoakleaf.myfreeforum.org/forum120.php http://www.furiouslyeclectic.com/forum/ First, a fan-edit compilation of two Len Lakofka articles from the dipzine Liaisons Dangereuses , simply called Liaisons Dangereuses .  Included here are a specialist class called the Pyrologist (or Fire-User) and an article on Dwarves & Hobbits & Magic. The other booklet, The Pyrologist, is a fan-edit only containing only the pyrologist class. The orginal articles can be found in issues #74 & #76 of Liaisons Dangereuses . Sadly, neit
