TheQuestionMan Posted August 11, 2007 Report Share Posted August 11, 2007 Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... Nicalo watching Rufio put on his Black Powder Weapon Arsenal of Pistols, Grenades, and Jager Rifle. Nicalo: "Rufio, why didn't you use the grenades during our attack on the Undead, Eternal Emperor?" Rufio: "I decided that grenades in close combat would be bad." Later It occurred to Nicalo that, being alive, the Archmage would now find our presence to be an irritant--as one of the few visceral influences on an undead seems to be this instinct-level annoyance at the presence of living things. He agreed that this was the case but he did not allow himself to be swayed by this irritation, preferring to rely on reason. Niccalo: "I admire a man who can resist the pull of irrational instinct." Presumably self-identified as a different sort of man . . .to the Archmage/Necromancer after the Undead/Lich returned us to life. Rufio: "Heeeeeeh!"

Klytus Posted August 12, 2007 Report Share Posted August 12, 2007 Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... Thuis reminds me of something that happened in my friend's 3rd Ed D&D fantasy campaign. One of our buddys was playing a Druid named Rowan, who was a competent Druid, but kind of lacking in the department of thinking things through, and kind of a jerk besides. (Rowan thought a lot like an animal; what was good for Rowan was "good", what was bad for Rowan was "bad", and somehow its always mating season). Rowan managed to end up with an enchanted headband that raises your Wisdom by 8 points. [Rowan puts on the headband...then looks awed....then worried...then embarassed...then non-plussed] Jerika: Whats wrong? Rowan: I....can never...take... this... off. Which reminds *me* of a 3rd Ed D+D game of my own. The party was getting ready to ambush a mind flayer, one who had done some really serious damage to them before with a psionic blast. This time, they are all armed with Potions of Owl's Wisdom to give thier WIll Saves a much needed boost beofre the fight. Amusingly enough, many of the party members *forgot* to drink their potions when the mind flayer appeared. Anyway, on her action, the half-orc barbarian, Kel, chugs her potion. The sudden boost in Wisdom leads her to utter this line: "Holy $#!&! Are we out of our minds? We're attacking an "effing" mind flayer!!"

Shadowsoul Posted August 13, 2007 Report Share Posted August 13, 2007 Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... I've blocked out some of the details but the story that led to my current favourite quote goes something like this. Victorian supernatural mystery adventure in which the PC's are trying to interview the sister of a murder victim. One character (John Dunkington) has a little problem with remembering his manners and the player has a big problem with being told what to do, in game or out. The other two (Duan) and (Jim) are saying things like - "He didn't mean that!" "Calm down!" and "Never mind him he's going to stop now." John. - "No! No! I'm going to wander off then drop my trousers and start running around the house." GM. - "Are you going to try and stop him?" Duan. - "Oh for heaven's sake! Yes!" (Fails his grapple roll). Jim. - (Player is fighting hysterics by sitting very still with a frozen face and indicates that this is all he is capable of at this point in time). John. "Oh. I'm also shouting 'freedom!' As I run." (In his mad dash John encounters a servant and the lady of the house, the lady faints and the servant summons the constabulary. The Police have in fact been keeping an eye on the characters.) Thus. GM. - "Six policemen burst into the room and start dragging you away." John. - "What!?! Six? How did they get here so quickly?" Duan. - "Look this is Victorian England, he'd could justifiably kill you're character for this." John. - "Bollocks! How long have I been running around this house with my trousers down anyway?"

There they are. I've had that situation happen in a 2E D&D game. My character and some other nobles (disguised, looking for clues to something) were talking about how nice and quiet this evening was in the lower end neighborhood. Then there was a ruckus and lots of yelling. My character called out a PC's name, "knowing" said PC (and his fellow lackey PCs) had just done something wrong. We ran to rescue them.

Jaxom Posted August 15, 2007 Report Share Posted August 15, 2007 Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... From last weekend's session of a long-running pulp hero campaign... The party is an international group who tend to get involved investingating strange and possibly supernatural events. Most recently they have discovered that the Thule society (the Nazi's interested in the supernatural) have been trying to steal something from a cave in Finland. George (OOC): I don't think you can be out of range of a god. Later... Sven (OOC): I made it by 12 and still failed? George (OOC): See, that's what you get for messing with a god.

Korvar Posted August 19, 2007 Report Share Posted August 19, 2007 Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... Finally, I have actually had some roleplaying in order to cull quotes from. It's been a lean couple of years. This was the Tribe 8 one-off game of two weeks ago, where were all playing Agnite children (of the tribe of children) "I am one with the stool!" "I am in touch with my inner stool!" These were both from "Elvis", the oldest of us. Thankfully, he meant the wooden seating implement. "He makes me feel funny!" From Johnny, our youngest member, while hiding in the Wrong Tavern. Definitely not a place for small children. Thankfully the man let them go...

AliceTheOwl Posted August 20, 2007 Report Share Posted August 20, 2007 Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... The PCs have found a handy magical device which makes it obvious who's on which side by assigning colors. The good guys are blue, bad guys are red; those undecided, neutral or changing their minds show up as purple. Upon figuring this out, Flora declares, "Go team blue!" Later, when Flora stumbles over how to tell the party the people on the hill are showing up as neutral, Rastal (OOC), guesses, "Those are purple people eaters?" (Thus followed a number of Red vs. Blue jokes you don't need rehashed here. Really.) Daris, outnumbered 24 to 1, is sneaking past some guards, and flubs his Stealth. He steps on a stick, which snaps, and half the encampment turns to look at him. He lies his way into not getting shot immediately, and they ask him to turn over his weapons. "Okay, but what about theirs?" he says, indicating the army several hundred feet behind him. GM: "They look." Daris: "I run." Later, Rastal remarks, watching Daris charge forward, "We'd better go in. He's lost his f***ing mind." After Daris pulls an impressively stupid stunt, Rastal says, "You're stealing my moves!" Daris replies, "You can have them back now. Thank you."
