Balabanto Posted April 8, 2010 Report Share Posted April 8, 2010 Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... From the last two Heroes, Inc sessions. Me: So last session, we ended when you created a fuel/air explosion in the area of the piranha men. As the battle ends, you can hear the sound of fire trucks and police cars. Wallop and Signal explain things to the police, while Glaze and Bestiary clean up the heap of piranha men. Signal (New Character): Can I use my High Range Radio perception to pick out the approaching press? Me: Make a hearing perception roll. Signal: Hearing? Me: (Watching Signal make the roll) That's the Whup, Whup, Whup of Chopper Nine. Players: !@#$%$#@!@!!!!! Wind Witch: I fly up to the chopper and knock on the door. Me: What? Wind Witch: I fly up to the chopper and knock on the door. Me: He doesn't seem to be opening the door. Does anyone have read lips? Wind Witch: As a matter of fact, I do! Me: He seems to be having an argument with the pilot about whether or not he can open the door. Wind Witch: I knock again Two minutes later, the Reporter opens the door, the camera still ominously pointing at the large crater where the Piranha men used to be stuffed. Reporter: What happened here? Wind Witch: The usual! Property damage should be expected in superhero battles. It's not as if we're Mesa, or out in San Diego. They call that "Mesa's Walk" now. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ San Diego: The San Diego Knights base. Gauntlet and Steel Thunder are watching the news. Gauntlet: Oh, my god! Wind Witch totally screwed us. Mesa's walk? Do we have a press corps? Steel Thunder: I guess this means some more image consultants. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mesa, watching the news at home. Mesa: I can't believe she just said that. Reporter: So what happened here? Wind Witch: An unusual combination of superpowers and abilities combined to create a fuel/air explosion. It wasn't a very large one. Reporter: Not a very large one? Wind Witch: It's not as if stuff like this doesn't happen every day. Reporter: Would you like to make any additional statements? Wind Witch: Not at this time. Bestiary, knowing the radios are on: Oh, god, we're doomed! I can't be fired! This is the only job I have! Glaze: I don't want to have to do my other job to get you back on this job! (Glaze is a lawyer) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Later, in the base, the heroes are testing Signal's powers to make sure they don't have a repeat fuel air explosion, by using Bestiary's idea of having him microwave popcorn until he gets it under control. The first attempt is a dismal failure. Wind Witch: Thank God I don't need to breathe. Glaze: Thanks for making me jealous. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Wind Witch: So, do you guys have a battle cry on this team. Signal: Go, Team! is the best I can do. Glaze: We've been trying to come up with a good one for years. "Heroes, Incorporate!" just doesn't have the right sound to it. In fact, it's one of the worst ideas I've ever heard of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gnaskar Posted April 9, 2010 Report Share Posted April 9, 2010 Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... The Changlling super-campaign is beginning to rap up, and the subtle hints that the Apocalypse is coming have stopped being subtle or even hints. In the plot I wasn't on they were investigating a cartoon where we were the main characters and the theme song: "we have four weeks left to save the world". We, on the other hand, were going fishing in Loch Ness. Two of our party, Ace and I, are slaves to an ancient evil (we died in the underworld while seeking the water of life) and were ordered to kill Nessi. The others were here seeking an expert on Magic who could help us stop the ritual the Summer Court started last summer. The players: Storyteller: Our Storyteller this week normally plays His Majesty Duke King Frostburn the Cruel, Lord of the Frozen Heart, ect. The king of the Winter Court. Lil: Or technically Queen Lil of Spring, but she refuses to be called that. A hippy succubus with healing magic. Malcom McGuire: Me. An uncharacteristically intelligent ogre. A walking stone statue in car mechanic gear. Also the best boxer in the campaign. Courtless after leaving Summer in disgust. Ace: A stereotypical dark gambler; compulsive kleptomaniac with a phobia against stealing things. Has the least Clarity (sanity) in the campaign. Autumn Court. Hornblower: A Spring Court musician who's addicted to living in fairytales and has the magic to make the world more fairytale like. Avoid saying things like "so far, so good" within earshot of him. First a quote that just sums up the plot: Lil: We're going to need a lot of spam delivered to Loch Ness regularly. And do we have anything growth inhibiting to spike it with? Some quotes that need (or at least have) no explanation: Hornblower: Knock, knock. Was there a doorbell? ... Malcom: I'm here because my toilet ordered me here. ... Malcom: (explaining) The Turtle with the Spear of Destiny was from the Moon. ... Storyteller: So your argument is: (Dramatically) You can't handle the Sheep! ... Storyteller: You feel up the sheep. We are not surprised. ... Storyteller: You are surrounded by carnivorous fish. What do you do? ... Storyteller: A poisoned Sombrero of Death as a gift to Nessi?! ... Storyteller: No Fish Left Behind. ... Hornblower: Nah. Take me to your fish. ... Lil: All roads lead to eating London. ... Storyteller: The fish is allowed to speak freely? ... Ace: I think we should go to the castle before the car is surrounded by fish. ... Lil: Nessincest ... Hornblower: Spam the lake! On Ace's approach to social gambling: Lil: If you can't join them, beat them. We need information: Old Bar Client: The first thing to go is the memory, you know... And petty cash the second. The old bar client begins hitting on Lil: Malcom: *Sigh* See you in an hour? Lil: Sure. You go talk to Sam. ... Storyteller: His mates stare from him to you with a look of "we've seen him do that many times before, but it's never actually worked!" A plan forms: Hornblower: Wasn't the plan to sell them sheep? Storyteller: Did you bring any sheep? Malcom: We could dress Ace up as one. ... Lil: You must have this little Clarity to be a sheep. ... Storyteller: Baaaaah-d plan. Commenting on Ace's disguise/acting roll: Hornblower: You are such an awesome sheep. Comments regarding another plot: Storyteller: The quote: "We lost the Prince of Wales?" just says it all. Ace: We're Changlings. We lose everything important. Malcom: The Spear of Destiny. Excalibur. Lil: Hrunting. The king Sword of the North... Hornblower gets a phone call from Lancelot, a player currently on the other plot of the day, in the middle of the night: Lancelot: You are going to die! *hangs up* Hornblower: (to himself) right. No sleep for me tonight. (Lancelot's player refuses to explain the context that lead Lancelot to make such a call) Changlings have ways of getting information, even from captured and gagged fish: Storyteller: Most significant upcoming event the next six months? I'd say eating Big Ben. While spitting acid on the fleeing crowd. Well, the one's that aren't already on fire. London's burning. Hornblower: Why do I always look into the future? Malcom: What? Hornblower: It's going to eat Big Ben. Lil: Bad fish. Very bad fish. No haggis for you! We get close to insulting Nessi: Lil: No, no, you look very fertile. Nessi: So do you. I wish you luck when the time comes. Lil: Alas, like all Changlings, I am infertile. Nessi: Then how are you pregnant? Thinking back on her being crowned: Storyteller: There was a fertility ritual. You ate the fruit, drank the Water of Life and danced with the werewolves. You are thrice blessed with fertility. Malcom: And we all know what the number three does to magic. Hornblower: It makes it awesome. ... Lil: (Considering the obvious question of who the father is) Then (after the ritual) we had an orgy. Hornblower: With every member of the Spring Court. Malcom: And most of the other Changlings. Lil: And the werewolves. Storyteller: And a Vampire Delegation. Hornblower reads Lil's future: Hornblower: I am so going to regret this. Storyteller: You see Aberdeen (the campaign city), except it looks more like Mordor. On fire. You also see Lil giving birth to twins in a slimy evil cave. Lil: (seeing the look on Hornblower's face) What?! Hornblower: (still looking terrified) Congratulations, you're going to have twins. Our plan for dealing with Nessi's 666 carnivorous children: Hornblower: Healthy additives. Healthy for us. ... Lil: We're going to need a lot of spam delivered to Loch Ness regularly. And do we have anything growth inhibiting to spike it with? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
concord Posted April 9, 2010 Report Share Posted April 9, 2010 Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... A few excerpts from one of the latest sessions of the Wardens Chronicles... +++++ Karex swoops in and delivers a powerful tail thump to the creature's scorched chest to ensure that it stays down. "Once again the dragon saves the maiden," proclaims the small golden scaled one. +++++ The team begins questioning Marsa again. Eon brings up that she might be a bit frazzled and maybe a break is in order. Karex comments that after a werewolf Eon would be frazzled too. "Oh yes, you have a heart of stone. It is different for you," Karex says to Eon. +++++ "Everyone knows dragons rescue maidens," states Karex. "I have heard that dragons think we are crunchy and taste good with ketchup," quips Caitlyn. "That's just evil propaganda," replies Karex +++++ Karex comments about all of the scary things that she has seen that day. Turning to Eon, Karex says, "sorry did not mean to call you a thing." +++++ When asked why the dark one sent her brother here, Indigo replies to conquer or destroy it. "Another one," says Karex shaking his head. "That happens a lot here. You guys need to setup some kind of immigration controls." +++++ Back at the base, Eon sits down with Indigo and using her description of the man-creature that her brother had been transforming into draws a sketch of her brother. "Wow, you two don't look anything alike," comments Karex after looking at the sketch. "I told you he was transformed," replies Indigo. +++++ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haerandir Posted April 9, 2010 Report Share Posted April 9, 2010 Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... Finally remembered to write stuff down at this week's Amber session, so there's more than usual: The Cast: (and their Elder Amberite parentage) ----- Conrad (son of Julian) Quintus (son of Eric, Benedict's apprentice) Alaric "The Wolf" (son of Caine) Vincent (son of Brand) Leandro (son of Florimel) ----- While choosing a place from which to order dinner for the session: Quintus (OOC, looking at a delivery menu): "Tiki In's lack of a second 'n' disturbs me." Vincent (OOC): "Well, it's not like you actually sleep there, so it's not really an inn." ----- Alaric (OOC): "I wonder how much Endurance it would take to use the Head of Vecna?" Leandro (OOC): "More than you've got." ----- Quintus (OOC, recapping a previous solo encounter): "It was at this point that I realized that running away was the 'right' plan, but for role-playing reasons I pressed on." ----- Leandro consults with Uncle Corwin, while Conrad makes friends and influences people: Leandro: "We're concerned that Quintus may have been kidnapped." Conrad (to Corwin): "And you're our resident expert on being kidnapped, so we thought we'd ask your advice!" Alaric (OOC): "I'd just like to point out that I am nowhere near Conrad." Leandro scoots a few feet farther away. Conrad (OOC): "Look, I'm Julian's son. I'm contractually obligated to annoy Corwin. Besides, what's he gonna do? He owes me for rescuing him last time he got kidnapped." ----- Leandro: "Let's see... If I put my back to the tree, it will turn out to be a monster. If I stand out in the open, I'll get jumped from behind. I could never get this one in school... What would Benedict do?" A lively debate ensues about how various Elder Amberites would handle this dilemma, leading to the following conclusions: Conrad: "OK, so far we have: Benedict would maneuver the attacker into being eaten by the tree, Corwin would hit the tree with his attacker, and Gerard would hit the attacker with the tree. That sounds about right." ----- Quintus: "Well, I could act immediately on what I've learned. ORrr I could do something useful." ----- Quintus: "I'm reasonably certain I've been sent here as a spy to deceive and destroy you." Conrad shrugs: "OK." ----- Quintus (exasperated): "Why did you bring him here?" Conrad (equally exasperated): "I don't know." ----- Vincent: (IC) "Right! Only one thing to do!" (OOC) "I go get him a croissant." ----- Conrad (to our Uncle Bleys): "Come with us if you want reality to live." ----- Leandro has tried and failed to reach Aunt Fiona and King Random: Leandro: "I contacted my mother, since I'm certain no one would bother to take her out first. Or even third, in this case." Bleys: "That's actually a remarkably clever plan. I wouldn't have thought of that." ----- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
