SEASONS GREETINGS FROM SANTA CLORC

With Christmas just around the corner, Santa Clorc is ready for a big celebration. While the rest of us enjoy our turkey dinner, Santa Clorc feasts on human remains gathered from the Fantasy Wars. As he rests his feet on a pile of dead dwarves, sipping human blood from a tumbler, he opens his presents; a spear from Ash-hoon, the orc shaman, and chocolate covered elf eyes from Ugraum, the brutal orc leader.
