Full Frontal Nerdity is a weekly webcomic by Aaron Williams (also the creator of Nodwick and PS238). It focuses on the roleplaying sessions of four tabletop gaming friends, all of them typical nerds in bad need of a life. The characters are: Frank, the Game Master. Overweight and socially awkward. Lewis, gamer. Chronically unlucky and often dog-piled by the other players. Nelson, gamer. Rules Lawyer and power gamer. Shawn, gamer. Participates in the games via webcam from Alaska. Troll. Emma (full name Empusa Resipunus), demon. Introduced about a decade into the strip, only participates in the games tangentially, and enjoys Earth food (especially junk food) just a little too much. Game shop guy. Runs the local game shop "The Goblin Hole". Real name unknown.Apart from tabletop gaming, the comic references various staples of the geek subculture, from collectible card games to SF series. | |

No Celebrities Were Harmed: Waffles back and forth on this. Real celebrities will get mentioned regularly, but sometimes Aaron Williams does this for affectionate parodies, such as with "acclaimed fantasy artist Andy DeLaTurzzi" (to make fun of a set of character sheets designed by Tony DiTerlizzi that featured Pin Up style character art). | |

Urban Legends | |
| Full Frontal Nerdity (Webcomic) / int_12e0bb9 | comment |
Urban Legends: One storyline features Frank being stalked by the Slenderman. Turns out he's mistaken all the NPC s slaughtered by the group in their sessions for real people. They get Frank out of it by making up a character based on Frank and killing him off in Frank's place. To be on the safe side each player also plays a character based on each other...except Lewis. | |

Genre Shift | |
| Full Frontal Nerdity (Webcomic) / int_177a6464 | comment |
Genre Shift: Frank occasionally pulls these out either to try to salvage the world-shattering antics his players often get up to, or planned ahead of time to trick them into playing a different campaign than they thought they were getting into. Neither variety tends to go over well. | |

Gone Horribly Right: Frank, in an effort to get his players more involved in the "RP" side of RPGs, developed a system where they'd roll to "hit" in conversations. They didn't even make it out of the Inn before he regretted this. | |

What Did I Do Last Night? | |
| Full Frontal Nerdity (Webcomic) / int_27ba9b64 | comment |
What Did I Do Last Night?: The main characters went to a New Years Eve party at the "Goblin Hole" and look through their pockets to figure out what they did while under the influence of "Klingon War Nog". Frank finds a character sheet for the elf ranger from the D&D movie, Lewis finds a receipt for the Everquest sourcebooks, and Nelson (who hates anime) found Yu-Gi-Oh! cards. When Frank's nephew entered a pine-box derby, Frank and Nelson drilled a hole "whose geometry looks straight out of the Necronomicon with a drill bit that may have gone through someone's skull" in the car. They blanked out at the pine-box derby; when they came to, they'd been dumped in a basement to scream themselves unconscious after tearing a hole in reality. After a cold sets in hard and fast, the chracters wake up feeling fine only to discover they lost a week of time. While Frank is upset they apparently filled in his vintage character sheets for a game they played by taping together every game board in his house, Nelson is horrified to find he apparently bought multiple visual novels and anime dating games and logged 72 hours in them. Eventually they find a letter claiming their cold developed sapience and played the game before their immune systems kicked in, only to deduce that in their addled state they were just manipulated by Shawn... except the cold was sapient and had made a deal with Shawn. | |

Conversational Troping | |
| Full Frontal Nerdity (Webcomic) / int_2b34de10 | comment |
Conversational Troping: Indulged at multiple points, as Lewis, Nelson, and Shawn recognize the tropes used in Frank's games (particularly ones he repeatedly uses) and discuss how to deal with them. Exaggerated when they play a game set in an 80's detective show, they start noting just how many tropes come up, and Frank admits to cross-indexing a random plot device table to TV Tropes. | |

A time traveler attempting to avert the cataclysm accidentally strands the party in the past, where they proceed to cause the cataclysm by stoking racial tensions until the society tears itself apart. Notably, Frank didn't plan this outcome. | |

| Full Frontal Nerdity (Webcomic) / int_35f57671 | comment |
Minion with an F in Evil: Emma. she's a demon from Hell, but she's too much of a lazy slacker to really care about actually doing evil things. She's stuck around with the gang because it means she can sit around streaming TV shows all day while eating chips and Twinkies. That's not to say that she doesn't understand how to be effective at being evil, because she does, but doing so takes work so she doesn't. | |

Batman Gambit | |
| Full Frontal Nerdity (Webcomic) / int_38d02d44 | comment |
Batman Gambit: Frank runs a campaign featuring multiple factions interlocked in a power struggle for the throne, each of whom having their own plot hooks. Nelson and Lewis decide to accept as many plot hooks as they possibly can to maximize their XP and loot, thus ending up playing multiple factions against each other. They end up having to do a lot of political maneuvering, actual role-playing, and careful reading of the campaign notes to accomplish this without being detected and cut off from doing more adventuring... Which turns out to have been Frank's plan all along. In an earlier strip, Frank decides that "Superman was always Superman", letting the players pick out overpowered spells and abilities... but at the cost of Power Incontinence. Hilarity Ensues. | |

Munchkin | |
| Full Frontal Nerdity (Webcomic) / int_5105d2a | comment |
Munchkin: Nelson. The Crowning Moment of Munchkinry was when he managed to finagle his way into ruling a fair chunk of the world and even appointed his character a god, complete with Prestige Class and Alignment Violation Coupons. Shawn may be one as well. When the other players question how they can be certain his die rolls will be fair (they rely on him reporting the results, since he plays by webcam) he offers them each a +5 vorpal sword that he randomly rolled as a show of faith. Really, all three players are Munchkins. Nelson is just the best one at it. | |

The Faceless: Shawn is never seen in person. Interestingly, the webcam is sometimes treated as if it were his actual body, and he fulfills most aspects of the Snarky Nonhuman Sidekick. This could have interesting implications, or it could just be authorial silliness. It gets to the point where even in situations where he should be seen, he still appears as the webcam, such as at conventions or when everyone creates online avatars that resemble themselves. | |

Shortly afterwards, a sign appears on the lawn saying "Return the Dice" and a figure in a hooded robe with glowing green eyes appears at the door. He turns out to be a Techpriest cosplayer who'd dropped the Hello Kitty dice so other Warhammer 40K fans wouldn't see him with them. | |

Badass Santa / An Ass-Kicking Christmas: Check it out. Much later on, they play a game where Shawn, Lewis, and Nelson are different would-be Santas with unique powers and paradigms competing to see who wins and determines the course of Christmas. The winner ended up being Shawn, playing a Heavy Metal Krampus version of Santa. Ragnarok Klaus. | |

Timey-Wimey Ball | |
| Full Frontal Nerdity (Webcomic) / int_8d23f3a7 | comment |
Timey-Wimey Ball: Referenced when Frank tries to come up with a new Character Class - The Physicsomancer, a character that would apply real-world consequences to a fantasy setting. Playing a space race game, Lewis is repeatedly hit with time travel-related events which cause his ship to duplicate. By the time the makers introduce a limit to how many times a player can be duplicated, Lewis has covered two tables and half the floor with ship markers. | |

One of Frank's specialties, for the rare times he gets one over on his players. Such as the idea of mind flayers crossbreeding with lizardfolk (which in truth is pretty gross but not in the way the players think), or during a "rise of the animals" apocalypse game when he demonstrates what's happening with a video of rats climbing up out of toilets. | |

Too Clever by Half: During the Wizzerween arc, the party received a locked mystery box early in the quest. During the final confrontation with the wizard, Nelson unlocks the box and throws it at their enemy. Frank then reveals the wizard disappeared because the box contained a teleport scroll that would have taken them home, along with various goodies to celebrate Wizzerween. Instead, they're now trapped in the wizard's tower of insanity surrounded by eldritch abominations. | |

Loophole Abuse: Playing a game so poorly designed that it seems impossible to actually complete it, Frank eventually draws a card declaring their souls have all been trapped by a demon to eternally play the game. Nelson reviews the rules and finds players are allowed to take breaks, but there's no limit on how long the breaks can be, so they bury the entire game. | |

Take That!: Towards modern-day politics. Nelson occasionally delivers them to Western anime fandom, though the other characters are less hostile. Defeating the Devil's Radio in the "Stephen King: The RPG" arc required Lewis and Nelson to sing a forbidden incantation, which turned out to be Achy Breaky Heart. When Lewis mentions Star Citizen coming out next year (in a 2018 strip), the narration helpfully cuts in with "Just kidding, it'll never be finished." invoked | |

Xanatos Gambit | |
| Full Frontal Nerdity (Webcomic) / int_c32ff031 | comment |
Xanatos Gambit: Frank started a game with about four major power players in the background, with dangling plot hooks for each so the group could go for any of them without derailing his planned game. They decide to take all the plot hooks, so that no matter what they come out ahead because they've been playing everyone off against everyone else to their own benefit. It turns out to be Frank's own Batman Gambit because he fully planned for them to bite all the plot hooks in hopes of making off with the bait, tricking them into roleplaying and thinking through a campaign they normally would have just fought through. | |

Bedlam House | |
| Full Frontal Nerdity (Webcomic) / int_c6c5ce4 | comment |
Bedlam House: One Call of Cthulhu campaign had the players as "responsible adults" running an asylum for the inevitable victims of cosmic horror, getting paid to treat and contain them. They immediately start abusing their patients and dealing opium for profit. | |

Shout-Out: Multiple to Phil and Kaja Foglio, Real Life friends of Aaron Williams. "If that's not ''Girl Genius'', the MMO, I don't know what is." In a moon base building game Shawn announces that he's "pulling a Heinlein". Frank made a list of plausible reasons for players to have failed various saving throws, including one for Constitution because they "should've skipped the salmon mousse". | |

Video Game Caring Potential: Over the years, the players have shown no issue with murdering their in-game allies and friends, to Frank's continual frustration. He finally manages to make the guys actually care about one of his characters with Falgen, a somewhat sullen young boy who thinks they are the coolest people ever. | |

| Full Frontal Nerdity (Webcomic) / int_ca87e3ec | comment |
No Name Given: Downplayed in that the main characters are almost exclusively known by their first names. In fact, a mini-arc from October 2003 reveals they went several years without sharing their names and had been calling each other by their in-game characters' names instead. This arc also shows Lewis's name was originally written as Louis. A September 2005 strip gives Frank's last name as Stortz. | |

Shawn prefers the term "frenemies with benefits." It got to the point that Frank had spent an entire Con complaining about the trio ruining storylines, and was invited to do so again next year complete with Filk band and a web adaptation starring Wil Wheaton. | |

Too Spicy for Yog-Sothoth: In the Halloween 2014 arc, they wind up in a house with a demon that tries to eat the souls of everyone present (using a "Now Serving Number X" ticker). Lewis ends up with a 1 and is therefore the first victim but the demon finds out that his preexisting contract with Emma means that he's got compound interest on his soul, meaning that he's "got a soul-debt so big that trying to eat it is like trying to suck a milkshake out of the guts of an industrial vacuum cleaner set to 'Black Hole.'" In a strip after the Yahoo hack of 2016, a hacker calls Lewis after getting his old Yahoo profile information in an attempt to blackmail him. Lewis merely asks for the urls to be forwarded to him, prompting the hacker to actually look at them and refuse to have anything further to do with him. | |

Spotting the Thread: When all four characters are apparently simultaneously infected with a sapient cold, Lewis twigs that something's wrong when he points out Shawn, being several states away could not possibly have caught the same cold. Shawn admits a "sapient cold" certainly sounds like something created by a bunch of cold drug-addled people being manipulated by somebody healthy... but the cold really was sapient; he mailed them a batch of contaminated brownies to spread it. | |
