'''''MythAdventures''''' is the collective name of a series of humorous fantasy novels by Robert L. Asprin, popular for their whimsical nature, myriad characters, and liberal use of puns. The center around the (very very) diverse adventures of Skeeve, a journeyman magician from the dimension of Klah (who learns about demons ''very'' shortly after his mentor dies), and Aahz (short for Aahzimandius), a demon (dimensional traveler, as it is explained) from the dimension of Perv (making him a Perv'''ect''', thank you very much).
Line 74 ⟶ 75:
* [[From a Single Cell]]: In one of the comics, Isstvan gets blown up by a spell, and then rather squishily reconstitutes.
* [[Fur Against Fang]]: In one dimension Skeeve visits, vampires are urbanites who look down on werewolves as country bumpkins.
* [[Gambling Game]]: Dragon Poker from ''Little Myth Marker'', appears to be a cross between standard poker and [[Calvin Ball|the fictional "Fizzbin"]] from ''[[Star Trek: The Original Series]]'', and is always played for a [[w:table stakes|table stake]].
* [[Gayngster]]: Don Bruce, the Mob's "fairy Godfather". Skeeve suspects, of course, but it's not confirmed until the books from Guido's point of view.
* [[Genie in a Bottle]]: Skeeve meets one of these, a Djin from the dimension Djinger. They are only three inches tall, and hire themselves out for Bottle Duty because their entire dimension is in debt. They tend to be a bit short on Phenomenal Cosmic Powers, though, despite what the salesmen say.
