Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group...

 

Stick had his problems' date=' yes. His passive sonar couldn't see through a closed window, he couldn't read a dial instrument, he couldn't see a flashing red light, which made flying the team jet a little harrowing...[/quote']

 

 

Bet that made for more than a few "Oh, #@*!" moments in the party...

Black Bolt: Why is Stick flying between buildings?

The Mad Ninja: Nobody said he couldn't.

Stick: Excuse me, what buildings?

Cougar: Why is Stick flying at all?!?

The Mad Ninja: It's his turn.

Stick: Excuse me, but someone said something about buildings...

Steel Knight: Why does the blind man get a turn to fly?

The Mad Ninja: It's only fair.

Stick: Can someone tell me what altitude we're at?

Quotes from Owlcon - part 4

 

Cypberpunk 2020: "The President is Missing - Film at 11"

The President was abducted minutes ago. Due to global tensions, there's an Armageddon Clock running. Unless a keycard (carried by the President) and a computer code (known by the President) are retrieved, U.S. nukes launch, and World War III begins. The Secret Service's 'D-Squad' is quickly assembled to avert this crisis.

 

Cast of Characters:

Bear Claw: cop

Hulk: solo

Malcolm Blake: netrunner

Ming Hua: netrunner

Penelope McFadden: politician

Shawn: solo

Slick: fixer

 

Best without explanation.

Shawn: "I like kittens."

Malcolm: "Petting them or eating them?"

 

Upon learning that the fate of the world rests upon D-Squad's success.

Malcolm: "I better get a hamburger out of this."

 

We discover that the Vice President is an impostor.

Hulk: (relieved) "So I'm off the hook for beating up the Vice President."

 

A second Vice President is located ... also an impostor.

Hulk: "The Vice Presidents are both AI controlled clones."

Slick: "No wonder the Vice President suddenly became competent."

 

D-Squad locates the Presidential Limosine; a wrecker is getting ready to tow it away. Ming Hua pulls the Humvee in front of the wrecker, blocking it. The team exits the Humvee to capture the men inside the wrecker.

GM: You hear a helicoptor hovering directly overhead.

Malcolm (ooc): I use my controller to hack the controls of the helicopter.

Malcolm succeeds.

Malcolm (ooc): I crash land the helicopter straight down.

The crashing helicopter lands on D-Squad's Humvee and the wrecker.

 

D-Squad finishes searching the limo.

Penelope: "We need to get back to the White House."

Bear Claw: "The helicopter destroyed the Humvee and the tow truck. We have no car."

Slick: "HELLO !! We have a presidential limo right here."

As D-Squad gets into the limo.

Slick: (to Bear Claw) "This time you drive."

Ming Hua: (protesting) "I drive good. I stopped the tow truck."

Slick: "You parked the Humvee right under a helicopter."

 

No explanation needed.

Penelope: "Can we stop World War III and save the world? I keep my stuff here."

 

D-Squad has located the President's keycard. Unfortunately, there are three nearly identical keycards. The correct one will stop the Armageddon Clock. Either of the wrong ones will initiate an immediate nuclear strike. We learn that Bill Gates created the keycards.

Slick: (on the phone) "I'm calling to speak with Bill Gates."

Hulk: (walking into the room) "Wait."

Slick hits mute on his phone.

Hulk: "The Secretary of Defense and Bill Gates are in on the plot. Bill Gates is the only one who knows which is the correct card."

Slick unmutes the phone.

Slick: "Mr. Gates? I'm calling from the White House. We've had a little mix-up with the keycards you made. Could you explain to our tech guys which card is the correct one, so we can prevent any unfortunate mishaps."

Bill Gates: "You want the card ending in 0-1-8."

Slick succeeds with his Human Perception roll. Bill Gates is lying through his teeth.

Slick: "I'm sorry, Mr. Gates. That last bit was garbled. Did you say the correct card ends with 0-1-9?"

Bill Gates: "That's correct."

What a coincidence. He's lying again.

Slick: "Thank you Mr. Gates. You've been of great help to us."

Slick hangs up the phone.

Slick: "We want the card ending with 0-1-7."

Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group...

 

In spite of his name, The Mad Ninja was not a martial artist, but rather the team's brick. His origin involved an experimental batch of LSD and a Bruce Lee film festival.

 

So, this conversation...

 

Mad Ninja: I pick up his car and throw it as hard as I can.

GM: Which direction?

MN: West.

Rose: Why west?

MN: I'm trying to throw it in the ocean.

Rose: We're in Philidelphia, the ocean is east of here.

MN: I didn't say which ocean.

Clearly, The President was NOT kidnapped by Ninjas, and you guys were not bad enough dudes to save him.

I find myself reminded of the episode of Night Court in which Mac (the

court clerk) is having problems using his new computer, and accidentally

connects to the computer system of the city airport. The next thing you see

is part of the wing of a jetliner going past the window of Harry's chambers.

Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group...

 

For the player' date=' or the character? :celebrate[/quote']

 

Well, the idea was a martial artist with no martial arts.

Part of the running jokes of the character was his tendency to attempt things that he didn't have the power for. Like attempting to fly home when he couldn't fly.

 

Rose: Good lord, there are over a hundred identical Clonemaster copies in here!

Cougar: Where'd he get a hundred copies of himself?

The Mad Ninja: His mom must have been in labor for weeks.

Black Bolt: Ammo. I'm going to need more ammo...

Cougar: No, seriously, where'd he get a hundred copies of himself?

Stick: Does the term "Clonemaster" mean anything to you?

More quotes from my Shadowrun 4th edition campaign

 

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

 

NOTE: Tina changed her street name to Wren so as not to be confused with Lina

 

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

 

The team is in Hong Kong on a courier mission. They arrive at Chep Lak Kok airport just off of Lantau island. They need to get to Kowloon City.

 

GM: It looks like taxi is the preferred method of transportation. The rental place only has subcompacts. However, there's plenty of taxis and a few rickshaws.

 

Wren (OCC): I don't think there's a rickshaw large enough for all of us, let alone Bender.

 

GM (joking around): Yeah right, there's a seven man rickshaw. Seven guys in bit and bridal.

 

Sr. Lico (OCC): We're not going to that part of town!

 

Bender (OCC): What? You don't want to go see a donkey show?

 

GM: Ahh ... a donkey show ... that brings back memories.

 

Players: :nonp:

Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group...

 

Events lead the Embria fantasy game group to the entrance of a tomb of an ancient people called the Ddragash, who we thought were Lizard-men or something, but who turned out to be Dragon worshipping Elves.

 

The Cleric uses his ability to channel power to activate the door. Chyra (the hawt gothy sorcoress) and Metrion (the wizard) slip inside to look around. Rhiannon ("the littlest Roherrim") guards the entrance. Chyra grabs a vial from a table, and Metrion picks up a statue. Then the five sarcophagi open and the skeletal remains of Ddragashi heroes lurch out to attach us.

 

Rhiannon tells everyone to retreat, and the Cletic manages to reseal the door after us, barely ahead of the skeletal elves.

 

Varga (the Barbarienne) looks around the large antechamber.

 

Varga: Ive found an inscription on this fountain!

 

Metrion: What does it say?

 

Rhiannon: It says "Do Not Remove Things From ALTER!"

 

Metrion: Ok, ok, ok... >_<

Quotes from Owlcon - part 5

 

Changeling: The Dreaming -- "They've Come to Kill the Rooster"

The PCs (half mortal / half fey) are investigating the disappearance of 137 teenagers (Dreamers) over the last several months.

 

Cast of Characters:

Alpo: pooka (trickster with dog-like features, incapable of telling the truth), as a mortal he's a high-school student

Blareenj: troll (large, strong, oathbound warrior)

Coach Mick: redcap (rude, intimidating warrior, capable of eating anything), as a mortal he coaches the high school football team

Crazy Pete: satyr (wild reveler)

Fred T. Head: boggan (hospitable craftsman), as a mortal he's a hippy pothead

Gesive: nocker (mechanic, able to scare technology into working)

Raya: sidhe (beautiful noble), as a mortal she's a candidate for mayor

Red: eshu (risk-taking wanderer); like Morgan Freeman in the Shawshank Redepmtion, he's called Red, "Maybe it's because I'm Irish."

 

Best without explanation:

Coach Mick: "It figures that the satyrs are horny."

 

and

"You'd be surprised what comes out of a nocker's pockets as a tool."

 

We learn that the missing teenagers had been partying down on the beach.

Coach Mick: (to Alpo) "Have you been at these parties?"

Alpo: (nodding) "No."

 

Raya balks at lying to some police officers.

Red: (in disbelief) "You mean you're an honest politician?"

 

Fred describes his flower-power microbus.

Fred T. Head (ooc): Absurdly enough, the microbus has an alarm system.

Mick: "I don't want to know who would steal that."

 

The group gears up.

Fred T. Head (ooc): I take my SPAS semi-automatic shotgun out of the microbus.

Red: "Great. Now we have two spazzes."

 

The group tracks the missing teenagers to an entrance to the dreaming. The entrance is under a bridge ... and a bridge troll is guarding the entrance. The group begins negotiating to get past the huge bridge troll.

Red: "How about an eating contest?"

Bridge Troll: (incredulously) "You think you can beat me?"

Red: (slapping Mick on the back) "He can!"

Coach Mick: (cracking his knuckles) "What do you say, Greenie. Got game?"

The group finally promised to give the bridge troll some goat meat when they returned. Crazy Pete was not happy with this promise ... since he counted as "goat meat".

 

As the group travels through a nightmarish section of the Dreaming, they encounter and capture some goblins who were involved in abducting the teenagers.

Mick: (to the goblins) "Cooperative prisoners are useful. Uncooperative prisoners are tasty."

 

The goblins lead the group to a nightmarish facsimile of a concentration camp.

Gesive: "Look for the commandant's office. It will be the building with flowers out front."

 

Blareenj smashes down the door of the commandant's office with his sledgehammer.

Fred T. Head: "Avon Calling!"

 

The Nazi Pixie Commandant's desk is bloated with the Dreams of the teenagers.

Commandant's Desk: (opening its eyes) "I'm hungry. More Dreams."

Red begins chopping the desk to pieces with his ax.

Red: (singing) "All we are saying, is give piece a chance."

 

After defeating a giant lizard-spider, the group is discussing how they'll "pay" the bridge troll.

Blareenj: "Let's chop up the lizard-spider and tell him it's goat meat."

GM: You're going to try to convince the troll that the poisonous lizard-spider meat actually came from a goat?

Red: "Let's use Chicanery. We can make it look, smell and taste like goat meat."

GM: That's silly enough that I'm just going to let it work.

 

Red leads the group and the teenagers through the Dreaming and back to the entrance.

GM: The Silver Path doesn't exist in this part of the Dreaming. Red is leading you through the darkness past deep chasms, weird, flickering lights and creepy structures.

Red: "We're taking the scenic route home."

 

Red and Fred have proposed future courses of action.

Coach Mick: (giving his opinion) "Better Red than Fred."

 

Raya has spun a story to the media about rescuing the teenagers from a slavery ring, and chastised the current administration for its inaction in this matter.

Red: (to Raya) "Congratulations. I think you've just won the election."

Raya: "It's months until the election. I need to keep winning every month until then."

Fred T. Head: "You could get the Coach to just ... y'know ... get rid of some of your competitors."

Coach Mick: (outraged) "That's unethical! That's dispicable!" (muttering sheepishly to Raya) "What would you like me to do?"

OK, for those who cared...

Stick is the Martial Artist.

Black Bolt is the Weaponmaster/Trick Arrow

The Mad Ninja is the Brick

Cougar is a female Wolverine rip off

Steel Knight is the Iron Man rip off

Rose is the Mystic/Psychic

 

Confronted by a mass of the Clonemaster's troops, they order us to "Surrender or Die! You can't think you can defeat us!"

 

The Mad Ninja: Oh really? I'm an escaped mental patient.

Cougar: I have a history of violence.

Rose: I'm off my medications.

Black Bolt: I'm heavily armed.

Stick: It's that time of the month for me.

Steel Knight: How am I supposed to top that?

This group's name isn't "The Off-The-Wall Gang" by any chance, is it?

 

Because if it's not, it certainly should be.
