Quote of the Week from my gaming group...

[Susano]

My very second 6th edition session, a Freedom Strike session. The characters are gathered in Captain Unity II's office, talking about Eiko preparing for the Mad Scientist's convention.

Just as long as you don't make like Sandman and have a serial killers convention....

[Hugh Neilson]

Defending a temple from an anticipated attack, and asked where we will set up pending the expected attack:

Halfling Rogue "I'll maintain a last-ditch guard at the temple treasury. Someone big and strong should accompany me since he can better carry...I mean DEFEND the treasury!"

Funny...they never did tell us where the treasury was...

[Mephron]

Just as long as you don't make like Sandman and have a serial killers convention....

No, it's going to be, on the surface, a reunion for graduates of Tlamat Acadamy.

(They Laughed At Me At The...)

I think I made Bala rupture something when I dropped this on him.

[Dr. Hercules]

Here's a couple from the long awaited Defenders.

From last nights game-
The pcs beleive that Tomorrow Boy, at least if not directly, created Mechanon. As we are fighting him I blurt out this:

Tomorrow Boy: Mechanon, go to your room!

----------
Tomorrow Boy(OOC): Let me get this straight. Mechanon has just knocked out the world's greatest hero, Fantastic Man. Warforge, our brick is in GM discreation, and I, the super-genuis, am not only entangled but unconscious as well. That leaves Nighthawk and Rampant Lion, our non-powered members, left standing to defeat Mechanon?

Fantastic Man (OOC): Yea, I know what you mean. I'd feel better if it was just Nighthawk.

From Teh Bunneh's D&D game:

Alix: Shifter Druid. Keeper of the fail field. Object of cat-girl jokes.
Justine: Hot Asian Chick. Outsourced her soul to an extradimensional entity.
Hakkoz: Dwarf Priest. Walking Brill-o pad. Team caboose. Death from the knees down.
Pax: Human fighter. Only nominally playing in same game as the rest of us.

The party is investigating the cult of "The King Who Crawls." We follow a lead to a suburb built around the roots of a massive tree at the edge of a bottomless chasm.

Regarding an artesian well up-slope of the tree.

Justine: They have water here. These are the washed masses.

GM: It's sort of humid here.
Alix: Oh, great, my hair is getting frizzy
Justine: (OOC) We whip out the White Rain on the cat girl.
Alix: (OOC) *stiffens up as if petrified* Extra Hold Person

The party is met by an annoying townsman.
NPC: We don't have time for strangers.
Pax: Waitaminute... you went out of your way to interrupt us to tell us you don't have time for us. What kind of passive aggressive cr*p is that.

The party looks for signs of the ratmen. Alix takes the "rat sign" part literally.

Pax We found...sh*t
Alix We even brought some back for you.

A fight breaks out between PCs and Cultists. The groups start out far apart but quickly meet in the middle except for Hakkoz who is lumbering toward the battle with the speed of a glacier.

Hakkoz: I may be slow but I've got momentum.
Alix: When Hakkoz charges you don't so much get out of the way as change the zoning ordinance to allow it.

I would have written down more quotes, but we ended up gaming in the dark when the power went out.

This one comes from a Spycraft game from many years back. The players had just met a contact in a Turkish café, only to have it turn into a bloodbath when a group of four thugs with shotguns burst in. Things turned silly when all four of the thugs rolled fumbles in a row, with one of them managing to blow his own head off.

In the middle of this, the least combat-effective character has been hiding under the table

GM: They’re more dangerous to themselves then they are to you
Player: Anyone’s more dangerous to themselves then I am to them.

And, on a related note, my sniper character manages to get three critical hits in a row in another battle:

Sniper: This is almost as much fun as the time I went hunting dinosaurs. Bang!

(Yes, Susano, that is the sniper you’re thinking of)

There's a line in the xbox Punisher game...

"The Gnucci's need adult supervision."

[Deadborder]

Oh great... her.

Should I explain? Or don't the nice people deserve it?

[Susano]

Should I explain? Or don't the nice people deserve it?

You can if you want.

[Manic Typist]

Yes, yes you should explain.

Vic (Victoria) Hagen. Sniper, madwoman. She claimed to be ex British Police, SO-19. She also claimed to have hunted dinosaurs and fought psychic Soviet clones on the moon, so yeah.

Vic was played as being completely nucking futs. She had a five second attention span and her mind would wander with the slightest provocation. In fact, if she was actually focused on the task at hand, then it was a good day. Her idea of “hostage negotiation” was to shoot the guy holding the hostage. Fortunately, she was a very good shot. Most of the time. Some days, she spoke in cat macros. Other days, she was completely disconnected from the rest of the world.

Her hobbies were shooting things, making things explode, shooting things and making them explode, being randomly British, tormenting her team-mates and giving the GM headaches.

An evil organization once tried to brainwash her into joining their ranks. They gave up. She was driving the interrogators mad.

She was also a complete combat monster and one of the most fun PCs I’ve ever played.

Some quotes from tonights Gotham City Knights campaign. The characters:

Catwoman (Selina Kyle) (Looks like Morena Baccarin)
Nightwing (Richard Grayson) (Looks like a young Tom Cruise [pre-crazy])
Batgirl (Barbara Gordon) (Looks like Danielle Panabaker in Sky High)
Robin (Tim Drake) (Looks like teenaged Frankie Muniz)
Titania (Annie - formerly a construct of Clayface now an independant personoid) (Looks like teenaged Natalie Portman)

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

Nightwing (OOC): Awesome! Soon theyll have those "virtual gaming tables", where you can game with people from all over the world!

Catwoman (OOC): ...Who suck.

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

Nightwing (OOC): Oh, yes. We are SO mean to the cat. We feed him. We pet him. We clean his box...

Batgirl (OOC):Thats self defense!

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

GM: The Bat-jet packs have bat-shaped wings, control handles, a rocket propulsion unit, and a chest-plate with the Bat-logo. You see them in the later Batman TAS episodes.

Catwoman (OOC): I "X" out the Bat-logo with my lipstick before I put mine on

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

The characters intercept Two-Face as he is trying to put a binary compound in the water

Nightwing: Hello, Harvey! Say, youve got a lil' something on your face!

Two-Face: AAAAARRRRRGGGGHHHH! *Flips smooth out*

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

("Rhino" is a particularly large, strong mob enforcer)

Catwoman: *Wraps up Rhino's heavy pistol with her whip, then disarms him, sending it splashing into the water treatment plant's open canal*

Rhino: HEY! Those things gost money!

Catwoman: Well, you know what they say; crime doesnt pa-....oh who am I kidding!

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

Nightwing (OOC): I throw Two-Face, and then I kick him while he's down.

GM: Bruce would be so proud.

Batgirl (OOC): Clark...would not.

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

Catwoman is surrounded by thugs

Catwoman: You know, I am into the "group" thing, so let me help you get off *flips a mook over the rail for a 20 foot fall*

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

Mooks co-ordinate their attacks against Catwoman... and fail.

Catwoman: Performance problems?

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

Catwoman: We're in a water treatment plant! It cant burn down!

-----------

Nightwing (OOC): I give a parting shot to Mr. Face. Only his close friends call him "Two".

--------

Nightwing (OOC): I tackle Titania out of the fire flare-up that stunned her. You know, this is my first time being this close to her?

GM: She smells nice.

Batgirl (OOC): Like warm toast!

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

Catwoman: What now?

Nightwing: Get the people out of here! Ill try to find the sprinkler control main!

Catwoman: *Picks up an unconscious security officer from the ground and starts to haul him outside* Okay...this feels like "work"

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

Barbara scuffs into her morning class afer being up till 4 am chasing Two-Face...who managed to get away. Again.

Gina (her friend): Are you ok? You look...sorry to say this...terrible!

Barbara: I was up all night

Gina: Anything good happen?

Barbara: No...the two-faced jerk gave me the run-around

From my D&D Campaign last night.

"He's just a generic cleric from East Clericstownville-"
"-field -"
"- berg.... wich."
Pat, Me, and Jon 11/15/09

"You get another melee attack with cleave, you can't throw your sword. Sorry."
"I blame your computer... What is that? Vista?"
Drew and Jon 11/15/09


After finding a set of wanted posters in the pockets of adventurers in Drearings Deep, we were discussing the possibility of disguises. Redd (played by Jon) was thoroughly against it.
"Well, I'm not wearing a cloak now."
"Aren't you a half orc with red hair in a human town?"
Jon and Pat 11/15/09

After rolling my third 20 in a row.
"I think I just crit my pants."
Me 11/15/09

[Manic Typist]

Two-Face: AAAAARRRRRGGGGHHHH! *Flips smooth out*

...huh?
