I have no idea what it is, but there has to be one!" "Hmm... maybe standing behind the skeleton that [another PC] is shooting at wasn't my best tactical decision ever." GM: "What are you doing?" Me: "I'm chatting up Simone (a French Femme Fatale PC), and she's trying to ignore me." [simone player mimes blowing cigarette smoke in my face] Player: "What's his name?" GM: "Uh... [flip, flip] 'Sir Not-Appearing-In-This-Module.'" And last but not least... "You see Ted Danson being held at knifepoint by two gummy bears."

CandidGamera Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... No contribution of mine to a quote thread would be complete without mentioning my pal Eric. Eric.. well, Eric has a typically monotone delivery and a talent for saying precisely the wrong thing at the wrong time. (after generating a D&D type with high Will saves) Eric : I'm the guy that mind-affecting stuff doesn't affect all that much. (In regard to a past amusement) Eric : I found it funny once. Well, maybe twice. (Dismayed at his role in the party) Eric : Great, I have to be the thinker of the group. (One of his best ever) Eric : Only a fool knows no fear. I only know a little fear tonight.

"There's no way he could fail this. He'd have to roll a one. ...Uh..." Last night's D&D3.5 game, the climactic battle, our battered, bruised, and exhausted party is facing off against an ancient Black Dragon. We've barely laid a glove on the thing -- spells are bouncing off it's armored hide, most of the party can't even hit the thing 'cause it's armor class is so high, and it's slowly but steadily hammering us into the mud. Then one of our henchmen (a Kobald wild-mage), in an act of desperation, pulls out his Wand of Wonder. Usually when he does that, we all yell at him to put it away. This time, we're like, "Meh, what can it hurt?" So he fires it off, rolls on the random chart, and gets a Flesh to Stone spell (which involves a Fortitude save, which the dragon can't possibly fail), thus eliciting our GM's ill-fated comment. An ancient black dragon with hit points in the mid-200 range, felled by a lowly Kobald. Basil 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enforcer84 Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... I got to use my Wand of Wonder last night... What? Our new cleric has been lecturing the party all throughout this dungeon we're in about the history and the architecture, everything. We're in the catacombs benieth the cathedral of his God. But he's only level one and if you've played the Iron Kingdoms game you know the cleric's life is a tougher one than in your normal D&D game. The first guy he healed basically exploded. So he's a little nervous about evoking his powers. Makes a turn against some undead and is feeling better. THis is when the nearly nonstop lecture begins. we come around the corner and DUN DUN DUh! More Undead! Cleric puffs himself up, displays his symbol and cries "The POWER of MORROW Compells Thee!" ...nothing. My Ogrun Fighter turns and says: "Perhaps you could tell them the stories you just told us? That might make them run away." Cleric was unpleased.

Chimpira Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... In my last game a player, Deborah, could not make it but her boyfriend, Richard, pulled double duty and managed her character sheet. All goes well until the characters are forced to fight The Crowns of Krim and the Dark Enchantress (a magic user native to my campaign world). The PC's have an item that they want to keep away from the Crowns and the Enchantress. The fight is one sided with the Crowns laying waste to the players. Richard has his Girlfriends character, Ivy (mainly a Gambit rip) run out of the house (or what is left of it) that the battle is taking place and start to run away, he then changes his mind and has her go around to the front where Dark Seraph is dispatching two heroes that tried to get away with The Dagger of Qingu. The players get beat down and the dagger goes flying. Ivy picks up the dagger and starts to hightail it out of there but she is not able to shake the villians so Ivy attempts to charge up the dagger and destroy it. When everyone wakes up there is a smoking crater where Ivy had been. Richard: "Deborah is going to kill me isn't she?" Me: "I hope you like sleeping on the couch."

Tim Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... Richard: "Deborah is going to kill me isn't she?" Me: "I hope you like sleeping on the couch." I would call this going out heroically though. Or Ivy could have just caused a rift, that forced her into an alternate dimension. You can now make a story arc with the character's realizing this and having to try to get to her and rescue her. If there is no body, then she ain't dead.

So on intro night, I went through everyone's disads, and all were sufficently edgy. Until we get to the energy projector... GM: What are your psych problems?

Team F-up have defeated a bar full of vampire cops with the help of Madelyn the Third-From-Last Vampire Hunter. Odd thing is, it is common knowledge that Madelyn's grandfather killed the last vampire and the race was extinct. Captian Mysterion asks where the curent infestation came from. Madelyn: "I've traced the first missing cops to the impound lot. The only odd fact I found was that half a panel van was impounded the night of the first disappearance." Capt. M: "Huh. We accidentally brought back half a van from that vampire dimension." Madelyn: "And no one thought to check if the van was empty?"

Another AIM conversation, greatly trimed down and edited for excessive profanity, typos and long pauses that would otherwise ruin a perfectly funny dialogue. Oh, and it took a lot more effort to get too the punchline IRL, so I've trimed that fat too: Ok, let’s say your running a DC/Marvel story, but set in the real world. So no made up cities like Gotham and Metropolis and stuff. Where do you place everyone? ::long discussion ensues:: Ok, so we put Bruce in Chicago. What about Nightwing? Where would you put him in a Bludhaven-less world? Dude, Hell’s Kitchen! No contest. Bludhaven is Hell’s Kitchen on the "everything is bigger in DC" crack-scale. You can’t put Nightwing in Hell’s Kitchen. That’s Daredevil’s turf! Exactly. Fanboys need this! We must know who has the superior billy clubin skillz! Besides, after the requisite misunderstanding/brawl, you just know they’re gonna team up for a hardcore criminal beat downs… and probably some hardcore hottie hookups too. You have a one track mind, you know that? I have a two track mind: track one is all about the hotties. Track two is all about kicking ***. Right now, I got track one on repeat. :rolls eyes: Come on man, don’t be telling me you can’t see Matt and Dick getting into “a tap that ***†contest? They’re players dude! Personally, I give this one to Murdock. He’s got the pity angle! Chicks go crazy over that ****. Hell, Garner fell for Affleck and he was only pretending to be blind! You can’t tell me Starfire and Bab's aren’t gonna be all over that ****! Ok, let’s skip the “romance†for now and focus on the rest of the story. So, what villains do you think need to be imported from Nightwings rogues gallery? Well, Deathstroke is a must, so that we can have the inevitable Deathstroke and Bullseye team up. But really, I’m more concerned about the Hand. Why’s that? I’m channeling Batman: Begins here. The Hand would have to be lead by Ra’s Al Ghoul! And that right there is a great story waiting to happen. It could be the setup to the first meeting. The Hand is out to get Nightwing. Somhow Daredevil catches wind of it and, in the effort to warn Nightwing, the inevitable hero vs hero battle ensues! Of course, before a victor can be determined the Hand shows up and they are all like “Oh! Two for one hero special!†So of course the heroes have to team up or die under a hail of shuriken and poison darts and ****! That’s a good setup, but why would the Hand want to kill Nightwing? Ra’s is more of a Batman villain, isn’t he? Your missing the point. The Hand must try to assassinate Nightwing! It’s destiny man! ...explain...? Man you're so thick. Everyone knows that whacking Dick is a Hand job Susano, CandidGamera, proditor and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
