"It's magic! It's bubblegum and stickers magic!"
Drew 10/25/09 During D&D 3.5 last night

[Deadborder]

From the epic conclusion of our Star Wars game:

The Cast:

Zog: The GM
Me: Playing Krys, human female gunsligner
Richard: Playing Kaz, Zabrak male bounty hunter
Andrew: Playing Rip Kong, human male Jedi
Max: Playing Scott, human male Jedi

IC comments proceeded with character names, OOC ones with player names)

Scene: The Penultimate Fight – our heroes vs father-and-daughter Sith guys
(Daughter turns; Dad turns on her, but gets three misses – followed by a fatal critical hit)
Andrew: The Pathos of the d20

(Dad gets lured into a bomb trap that he set up but thought we disarmed)
Krys: I gave him the Explodo because I am clever

(Dad gets stabbed through with Rip's saber)
Me: Shot through the heart, and you're to blame- (is pelted)

Scene: The Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny. Big Bad and two henchmen

(Henchman tries to shot Krys, is doing a passable job)
Krys: The difference between you and me is that I do a lot of damage with a single shot. (Natural 20, kills them dead) See?

(Rip uses Enhance Ability, gets a Natural 20)
Andrew: OOOH! Crick Crack Knuckles

(Rip unleashes a flurry of Lightsaber hits)
Andrew: 99 Damage. Dammit.

(Kaz sneaks up on the master villain)
Zog: A vicious snarl comes over her face. "You ruined it!"
Kaz: Excelent
Andrew: I predict Force Lightning in your future.

(Krys hits for a lot of damage)
Me: And this is what happens when Krys makes an effort rather then just filling the air with... little.. beams of light

(Kaz is run through and dies instantly; like, -29 HP dies instantly)
Me: You were going to retire, move to the country and buy a Gronk
Andrew: Did that Force Lighting hit you?
Richard: Yes
Andrew: Did it hurt?
Richard: I shrugged it off. I'm a Zabrak and I'm tough
Me: Not tough enough
Richard: Yeah, what with being stuck through with a Lightsaber for the second time today

(Krys is a bit upset)
Krys: You broke into the temple, messed with the force and killed That Zabrak Guy. Now I'm really mad!

(Villain gets hit a lot, force energy flares around her)
Rip: She's got golden tentacally Sith love happening
Krys: I can't see golden tentacally Sith love.
Andrew: Write that one down
Me: I can't! I'm rolling damage!

[Houston GM]

The PCs are an official UN team.
Cast of characthers...
John Henry: density brick
Kooun Kaze: gravity energy projector
Saulk: mystic with healing powers

The team has learned that they'll be facing zombies, so they lay down some ground rules.
Kooun Kaze: "Rule One -- we stay together."

The heroes overturned their jeep when John Henry accidentally crashed it into a large group of zombies. Kooun Kaze bailed out before the crash. John Henry got out of the jeep just after the crash. Saulk remained buckled in the jeep and started attacking the zombies.
John Henry: (to Saulk) "Are you going to get out of the jeep?"
Saulk ignored John Henry and continued attacking the zombies.
John Henry (ooc): I pick up the jeep and move towards Kooun Kaze.
Saulk (ooc): That I notice.
John Henry (ooc): Are you doing something that requires that much concentration?
Saulk (ooc): No. I just figured that zombies were more interesting than whatever you were doing.
John Henry (ooc): I'm remember Rule One.

Rip Kong?!?

With a name like that, one can almost hear the excess testosterone sloshing around in his shoes.

Can't you just?

Rip was deliberately played silly by a player who knows better but likes to have fun. He was a full-tilt crazy with a tendancy to wave arounf the glowystick first, ask questions later. He was probably the most "loon" of the team, being (mostly) kept in check by Scott.

Well, save for this one quote:

Rip: We need to be diplomatic
Scott: I'll get more grenades

[SSgt Baloo]

Rip: We need to be diplomatic
Scott: I'll get more grenades

Explosives: for quick resolution of any diplomatic quandary! Repped!

Some quotes from the Rune Peaks campaign, being run in Pathfinder.

Anushka: Fighter-rogue from the Cairnwood (a gothy place where its always overcast). (Picture Milla Jovovitch from "5th Element" in black leather harness)


Xasha: A Bard/Priestess of the Raven Queen from the Cairnwood (Picture Jennifer Connelly from "the Rocketeer" in a bare-tummy outfit made of black leather and raven feathers)


Azyrabett: Lapith (deer centaur who can change to a bipedal form) ranger. (Picture Mena Suvari with flowers in her hair and lil antlers)
(No picture yet)

------------------------------------------------

The group is discussing various advantages of playing in Pathfinder rather than 4E

Azyrabett (OOC): In 4E you can run into a dragon at 1st level. A 1st level dragon! My little sister can smother one by rolling over on it in her sleep!

---------------

Anushka (OOC): Deer are not known for their interaction skills.

-----------

GM: Does anyone speak NPC?.....I mean Dwarven! Does anyone speak Dwarven!

------------

Xasha: We were attacked by Grimlocks.

Trader: We were ambushed by Gargoyles while trading with a Giant

Azyrabett (OOC): Were any other attacks made by creatures that begin with "G"? Cause if so we know what part of the Monster Manual to study up on

-------------

Xasha (OOC): *Confused* Whatever I did, Im nearly sure that I did it

--------------

GM: *Looking for lost notes* Its really bad when you know just exactly how low your Wisdom score is...

-------

GM: All right! Lets start the combat!

Azyrabett (OOC): ...I am full of comfort food and ready for a nap

------------

Xasha (OOC): "SAY HELLO TO MY LITTLE FLIND!"

-----------

GM: Along the path, across the stream, you see numerous humaoid heads nailed to the trees.

Azyrabett (OOC): Whats that up in the road?

Anushka and Xasha (OOC): A head! *

(*From a British actors' game where you totally change the meaning of a line by changing the emphasis of your pronunciation)

------------

Bugbear: Kill the men and capture the women!

Anushka: *Performs an impressive display of her weapons prowess with her bladed chain, demoralizing the Goblin footsoldiers*

Goblin 1: ...Did he say kill the men and run away from the women?

Goblin 2: No! He said kill the plan and run away like women!

----------------

Xasha: *Breathless after running to rejoin the group* I killed a Goblin with a Sleep spell!

Anushka: How?!

Xasha: It fell out of a very large tree

----------

GM: The Goblin's armor bounces a sling-stone. He looks surprised and thumps his armor a couple of times, then says "Huh! I thought that stuff was just to make me uncomfortable!"

-------------

Azyrabett (OOC): I hit him so hard his momma dont remember him anymore!

--------------------

GM: Well, it IS worth noting that....well....no, I was wrong. Its NOT worth noting.

(We never found out what it was that wasnt worth noting)

"Alouette, gentille Alouette.
Alouette, je te plumerai..."

[input.jack]

Ive always wondered....what does that song mean??

[Narf the Mouse]

It's a recipe for songbird. As in, cooking. Part of it involves plucking feathers.


...Obviously, NesterDRod is a cannibal.

[input.jack]

As I always suspected......

[NestorDRod]

It's a recipe for songbird. As in, cooking. Part of it involves plucking feathers.


...Obviously, NesterDRod is a cannibal.

Why? Because I consider Xasha... pluckable?

Another tune comes to mind...

"Why smilest thou, Lord Dragon, sir?
Asked our hero in armor laden.
Why, you’d smile too, the worm replied,
If you’d just eaten a maiden."

Could someone please turn the Smut Field(tm) off in here? Thank you.
