I was looking thorough the Expanded Psionics Handbook and noticed something. the Deja Vu power is in there twice. on page 91 and 92. Appropriate, funny, but also odd. Any other book oddities (possibly metahumor) to share?

The Legend of the Five Rings book Way of Shinsei, aka the Monk Book, says the rules for enlightenment are on pg 113. The book only has 112 pages.

Only when you're constrained by the physicality of the book. Look beyond it, and you shall find your 113th page.

DMG 128, on the list of random NPC traits, has as its 100th entry "No sense of humor (See #26)"

There is no #26.

In the Magic Item Compendium, there is a psychoactive skin called "skin of the spider." If you read the entry, you will notice that its physical description is identical to Spider-Man's costume, and gives the user the ability to shoot webs. I don't have the book with me, so I can't give you a page reference right off the bat, but I can later, in an edit.

Oh I know. Just as I know the truth of the sidebar line from Way of the Scorpion that says Appendix II is a lie.

That's the part of the book that talks about ninja in Rokugan.
