Lucius Posted February 23, 2009 Report Share Posted February 23, 2009 Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... Had a wonderful time at the Arsenal yesterday with Jkeown's Fantasy Hero game. I was playing a variation on my Ranger Gord character. We fought giant animated mushrooms that Gord, being a Ranger, recognized could release poisonous spores. So when one approaches, I say "I'm backing away and continuing to fire arrows. I'm a Ranger, I fight at Range." Lucius Alexander The palindromedary informs anyone who may happen to care that we are experiencing technical difficulties and may be offline for a week or two, or not on as often as we'd like.

Mephron Posted February 23, 2009 Report Share Posted February 23, 2009 Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... From our Rifts game, run by Balabanto: My character, the cheerfully batshitinsane dragon juicer Mindy (for those that don't know Rifts, a juicer uses immense amounts of superdrugs to boost their physical abilities past human max to ridiculous; Mindy's version also has dragon blood mixed in, which just makes it worse) is standing behind a barrier. A bunch of guys with brain implants that boost their abilities (and drive them crazy) are charging into town. Mindy has shown to be a huge fan of pre-Rifts rock music. She also has a chainsaw that can cut through tanks. When it comes her time to enter the fray, when most of them have gone past and she can attack from behind, she does so singing: "Ever since I was a young girl I heard the weapons call From Chi-town down to Kingsdale I must have learned them all But there's one kind of weapon I love above them all This dragon-juicer chick Sure wields a mean chainsaw!" ...death was painful, bloody, spurty and Mindy was laughing and singing the whole time. "In a game that tends to be run as grim, gritty, and relentless, Mindy's cheerful lunacy is a bright spot." "....of blood on a whitewashed wall."

teh bunneh Posted February 23, 2009 Report Share Posted February 23, 2009 Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... From last weekend's P4.NDO.R4 (Pulp Champions) game (run by our own Querysphinx)... Cast: Dr. Williams: Intrepid tomb-raider archaeologist, seeking to find proof for his theories of Atlantis. Sam Sterling: An ex-Foreign Legionaire; tough-guy and gun-bunny. Henri Octenshin: Biology grad student and master of Monkey-style kung fu. Mr. Wilmott: Government agent and spy. Funding our expedition to the wilds of Central America. Kiko Jones: Girl reporter looking for a scoop. Hans Grumman (NPC): Belloch to Dr. Williams' Indiana. Our heroes are in Guatamala, researching an insect-cult that seems to have ties with the strange goings-on in the rest of the world. For some reason, all of our characters are starting to slowly exhibit super powers... Miss Jones has gained the ability to turn into a dragonfly-like woman, but only when near this magical temple. She's just rescued Henri from the top of the temple... Jones: If we leave this place, I'll lose my powers and we'll fall! Octenshin: ...OK, then. Fly low. Dr. Williams has discovered, while bounding through the jungle, that he can leap great distances! Williams: Awesome! I'm like Crouching Tiger, Hidden Archaeologist! Sterling is being helped aboard an airship by Octenshin's pet orangutang: Sterling: I don't want to be rescued by a monkey! It'll ruin my reputation! Octenshin: Don't worry. We'll shave him and call him an NCO. Sterling: Well, that's not so bad then. Dr. Williams has a bit of a reputation: Octenshin: I'm heading for the greatest concentration of chaos. Grumman: Ah. Another one of Dr. Williams' proteges, I see. Jones was shot and has been taken to the infirmary... Williams: Don't worry about Jones. She's the toughest frail I've ever known!

teh bunneh Posted February 23, 2009 Report Share Posted February 23, 2009 Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... From my lovely bunny wife's League of Extraordinary Gentlemen/Women: 1938 game at Genghis Con last weekend: Indiana Jones: I don't want to go down into a cave with Nazis coming up behind us! The Shadow: It's OK. We have grenades! Margo Lane: If we throw grenades in a narrow, enclosed cave, won't we get killed too? The Shadow: Nah. We'll direct the explosions away from us. Doc Savage: With what? Happy thoughts??? Margo (the Shadow's girlfriend) reveals a jealous streak: Margo Lane: If Lamont tries to get too frisky with her, I'm going to find out what lurks in the heart... Tarzan: I'm just happy to be someplace that doesn't reek of urine. The heroes have to cross a lake of acid... GM: Turns out, the water is only this -->.<-- deep. Margo Lane: Oh. I could walk across that in my heels! Indiana Jones holds up the party while keeping an eye out for people following the team... Marion Ravenswood: Indy, what are you doing back there? Indiana Jones: I'm protecting you from the Nazis! Marion: What Nazis??? The Shadow: So the laws of physics are working perfectly? Indiana Jones: Oh god! This is a Hero game -- that's bad!!! The Shadow: The Shadow Knows... When to get out of the way! Margo has been using a mystic artifact to heal people left and right... Margo Lane: When I bring back the Voodoo Cross, Papa Loco is going to be mad! Doc Savage (OOC): "When I loaned this to you, the tank was full!"

He has enough power to get them fixed, but hasn't chosen to. the Players have evil detecting sunglasses and offered to let the NPC Blind guy look though them, his response was: "What good are these going to do me?

AnotherSkip Posted February 23, 2009 Report Share Posted February 23, 2009 Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... Since someone PM'ed me about the unobtainium parasol... In a fairly large battle, my Phoenix Hawk got caught in the open by a Battlemaster. I potshotted him with the large laser, and cringed waiting for the return fire. One of my friends says, "Wait a minute!" He mimes pulling out a miniature umbrella (like you'd find in a mixed drink ), opening it up, and handing it to me. "Here, you'll need this!" With nothing to loose, I mime taking it and holding it out against the oncoming fire. Which all misses! Sure, the Battlemaster got me next turn, but the legend of the Unobtainium Parasol lives on... The other night we were discussing what enables Navy Seals and Rangers to deflect bullets... Rubbing their trident or their patch... Yeah Battlemechs it does seem to be Unobtanium Parasols...

CoreBrute Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... Not the funniest quote, but most of the quotes from my group are either not funny or get this thread blocked. Fable Heroes (Fantasy heroes combined with elements of the Fable game) Ishmael: (My character) A telekinetic ex/still active thief and con man Raphael X: A Spanish Teleporting Noble, kind of stuck up. His player annoys the hell out of the rest of us. The Professor: (GM character) Very powerful GM character, several hundred years old. The professor has shown us how to use our powers, and offers us the chance to join his side and defend humanity. Ishmael: A Man with mystical powers has never led me wrong before. Raphael X: What about me? The Professor: I don’t count you as a man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His player annoys the hell out of the rest of us. I had a guy like that in my first gaming group. Later, however... I realized I MISSED him and all of his ridiculousness. He was... like some sort of annoying pet that you couldn´t help but feel affection for even though you had every reason not to. I can´t explain it. Also, that quote doesn´t make sense. Why would the Professor say that he doesn´t count him as a man? That may be true.... but it just doesn´t seem to fit. Whether or not he counts him has nothing to do withthe first player´s comment. *Shrug* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karmakaze Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... What´s a 976 number? Phone sex? It's a number that can charge extra beyond the standard connection rate. They're porn-related more often than not, but they can also be call-a-psychic scams, call-in polls, and that sort of thing, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
