Sleep deprivation is certainly a common ailment for geeks, probably because many of us take advantage of the nighttime hours to catch up on our geeky doings, like… debugging a particularly nasty line of code, or raiding Icecrown Citadel in World of Warcraft, or (if you spent the last month like I did) catching up on a few years’ back episodes of Lost.

Devon Burntwire has, for the last two years, been working on a little project: a custom room, designed solely for games of Dungeons & Dragons. It's now finished, and it's amazing.
