Cancer Posted August 6, 2019 Report Share Posted August 6, 2019 OK, settled on a farmer. Well, a farm girl. Fictional character, though slightly out of genre. Farmer: Mary Ann Summers from Gilligan's Island. Castaway from Kansas, high-quality eye candy, and enough of a Luke-like ingénue to fit here like a nice tight bodice. archer, Pariah and Hermit 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hermit Posted August 6, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2019 39 minutes ago, Cancer said: Sniped. BTW... congrats. As the first snipe victim of this draft, you have accessed one of my four (or is it five?) super secret utterly useless bonus prizes. That is, in addition to the usual lightsaber colors, you may have one of your lightsabers of a color that is NOT in the official star wars universe. Sure, others can have red, blue, and green (And yes, thanks to Samuel L Jackson purple) but you can have any shade you like. Lemon Yellow! Hot Pink! Mauve! Aquamarine! Saffron Delight..whatever... Just for that one. Now, is there anything to keep others from imagining their light sabers their way and just slipping it by? no ... not really... that's why this is useless. So bask in this , the first of the Super Secret Utterly Useless Bonus Prizes! More to be revealed! Cancer, L.

Cancer Posted August 6, 2019 Report Share Posted August 6, 2019 Wow, I'll have to choose which spectral line wavelength I want. Li I 6707 (deep red)? H-beta (on the cusp between blue and green)? The CH A-X system Q branches, in the deep violet? He I 10830, invisible because it's in the infrared? Decisions, decisions... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucius Posted August 7, 2019 Report Share Posted August 7, 2019 "That Force that binds all living things together, Suffuses even the space between the stars, Resounds now to a feeling of such terror! As though a million screams the heavens smote And every scream tore through my helpless throat!" My Old Coot: Prospero the wizard from Shakespeare's The Tempest. Lucius Alexander The palindromedary says picking Prospero is just an excuse to indulge in blank verse. Sociotard 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted August 7, 2019 Report Share Posted August 7, 2019 Maybe ... I'll take a candy-striped one. Maybe save that for my big bad, whose theme song would be the old satirical "I Am Santa Claus" spoof on Black Sabbath's Iron Man. Maybe.
