Re: A DC Animated-style HeroMachine The two newest PCs in the Wardens Chronicles campaign... Stalwart Contego

Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... A few quotes from the last two sessions in the Wardens Chronicles campaign... all caught up now... +++++ "Don’t we all," responds Eon. "I didn’t think you did," comments Karex. "Normal is relative," replies Eon. "We can fix that," states Karex. "We can probably remove that crystal at anytime." +++++ "How is your parolee?" Eon asks turning to face Karex. "She is doing well and has a real talent for lasers," replies Karex. "You are not giving her the means to become..." queries Eon. "No, not a supervillain," interjects Karex. "She will be a valuable asset for Karex Corp." +++++ Amber asks, "Are you okay my little cream puff?" +++++ "Well you can trust me," states Karex. +++++ "She will have to step outside," responds Karex. +++++ "How do you know they are not assassins?" asks Karex. "Why would you think that?" Eon says answering a question with a question. "Two rival orders, blood enemies," responds Karex. "You have been watching too many movies," chides Eon. "You need to watch the History channel." +++++ "Oh yes, he is looking for Prime," responds Karex aloud. "Have the fixers bring a large vacuum cleaner and we will suck the intruder up." +++++ "What do they eat?" asks Amber. "Pretty much anything," replies Karex. "So, they are a threat to humans," comments Eon. "Not really, they are just as likely to eat a tree," responds Karex. +++++ Eon notes that, "There is not a woman to care for the young." "Maybe they are a more advanced species," says Amber while glaring at Eon. +++++ "It is obviously Yrician parents on a family vacation taking their children to the beach," comments Karex. +++++ "They stole her cat," states Karex. +++++ "Why do people always do that when I teleport them?" asks Eon

Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... A few quotes from a few sessions ago in the Wardens Chronicles campaign... I am still trying to catch up on getting all of the sessions documented, five down two more to go... +++++ "That was too easy," says Judah as he greets his teammates after the ceremony. "We did not put out an ad, Warden to be married on isolated mountain side ideal time to attack, please bring rice," responds Karex. "Bring fireworks," comments Judah. "Fireworks, I only brought fish. You need to tell me these customs in advance," scolds Karex. +++++ "The reception theme is the eighties," announces Judah. "So we bring stone clubs?" queries Karex. "The 1980s," replies Judah. "Oh, I thought you meant B.C.," responds Karex. +++++ "Didn't the people of this land use to eat all the Buffalo?" asks Karex when asked why he eats the whole lobster. "No, they used the bones and skins for tepees and other things," responds Eon. "How do you keep your scales strong?" queries Karex. "I don't have scales," replies Eon. "Yes, you are scale deficient," states Karex. "But those others we just encountered seem to have overcome that problem." +++++ "Eon teleported us somewhere," comments Karex. "No I didn’t," responds Eon. "Maybe this is the arena as Eon challenged Rextor the Warrior," says Karex. "It better not be, there are innocents here," replies Eon. +++++ "Maybe we are in another dimension," says Amethyst. "Maybe it is just an illusion," states Karex. +++++ "Maybe we are in another dimension," says Dot Dash. "Maybe it is just an illusion," states Amber. "Clap your hands and sing if you think this is not real," says Karex. "No, it is click you heels three times and say there is no place like home," says Eon. "Don't do that until you are with the rest of us, we don't want to be left behind," responds Karex. +++++ "They said it was strange energy and it changed their perception," relates Eon about what the Xenexis had told him. "It is an illusion." exclaims Dot Dash. "No more as if they had changed places," responds Eon. "Lets sing the 'we don't believe this is real song'," says Karex. The team continues the discussion on whether or not the place is an illusion or another dimension. "Maybe this is Indigo's dream and we are all in it," posits Karex. "Maybe someone should wake her up." +++++ "Don't be a silly, touch the damn crystal," demands Karex. "Karex watch your language," warns Dot Dash. "Okay, I will not call him a silly anymore." responds Karex. +++++ "So, we all planned that," states Eon. "Did everyone have fun?" "You had better be kidding," replies Rebecca. +++++ "It is not my uniform," states Karex as he examines the garment. "I would never wear such a low quality outfit." +++++ "Thank you mistress," says Taurex as he bows to Indigo. "Do I know you?" asks Indigo. "No, but I wish to learn from you," responds Taurex then with another bow, he introduces himself as Taurex the Apprentice.

"I don't think these people were stabbed," says Karex motioning his arms to encompass the area. "It looks like an explosion." +++++ "If they were clever villains, they would have an underwater lair," observers Karex. "After all, I have ah... nevermind." "You have an underwater base?" asks Eon.

Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... A few quotes from a few sessions ago in the Wardens Chronicles campaign... I am still trying to catch up on getting all of the sessions documented, three down four more to go... +++++ "So they're illegal aliens," states Karex. "No, they're from Florida," replies Eon +++++ Amethyst asks Indigo how criminals like thieves are punished on her world. "We usually hang them," Indigo calmly replies. "I believe that they are starting to send paranormal prisoners to an alternate dimension," says Eon. "They do not, Eon," responds Amethyst while glaring at Eon. Karex questions if sending prisoners to another dimension would be advisable as how would the authorities pay them a surprise visit, "In case they are illegal drug dealers." After some more discussion on crime and punishment, Indigo has become a bit surprised by Eon's comments and asks, "Are you always this cynical." "Amethyst is on this end and Karex is on the other. Me, I am in the middle," replies Eon. +++++ "We did not intentionally violate the Radley-Gold Act," says Amber. +++++ Eon says that if Dot Dash is going to be using cat tunnels then she could also catch mice. "She can ride the mouse," interjects Indigo. "Whee...," exclaims Dot Dash. "I have seen films of people juggling cats," comments Karex. "There was a Steve Martin documentary about the rise and fall of a millionaire." +++++ Eon and Amethyst try to explain how the American justice system tries to reform criminals. Indigo says it is too much trouble, "Normally you deal with thieves by cutting off their hands." "If they are truly rehabilitated then we need to help them," says Eon. "Redemption is one of the highest human virtues." +++++ "Seventeen years ago, I was walking around with John Battle..." says Eon starting to give an example of changes over time. "Not this again, you and John Battle," says Karex cutting him off. "We have all heard these stories." +++++ Karex whistles and says medical personnel. Indigo glares at him and says, "I am not a dog." Indigo works the 'spirit touch' on Power-Girl, healing her. Power-Girl wakes up. "Are you okay young one?" queries Indigo. Eon happened to be watching Gianna when she 'exploded' and knows that the force waves came from her. He comments on not making her angry or she will go off kind of like the Hulk from comic books. "Don't read them," states Power-Girl. "I'll go get it," responds Karex. "Why kiss a monkey when we have a dragon?" asks Indigo. "What about one of the parolees?" suggests Amber. Karex responds that they don't know what the effects maybe so they don’t want Toby to kiss an innocent or a human for that matter. It may kill them. "They are not innocent," states Amber coldly. +++++ Eon jokes about running a cat scan on her. Have the cat look her over then ask the cat what is wrong. Dot Dash throws a coin at Eon. Karex just shakes his head before commenting, "He is made of crystal maybe there is mold in the cracks." "I guarantee you I have no mold growing in any of my cracks," replies Eon. A discussion about the proper care and cleaning of crystal starts, Amber asks what kind of wax Eon uses to polish himself. Eon says that he does not wax himself. Karex says that he should because it will make his exposed surfaces shiny and protect his cracks. "I am not going to get waxed, turtle waxed or simonized," huffs Eon. "If you are not going to use his wax, you can kiss the turtle," responds Indigo. The discussion continues getting more and more inane. Finally, Indigo says that there has been enough bartering. Karex says that they are not bartering but bantering. Bartering is what someone does when they want to trade for something. "If we were trading there would be chickens," jokes Eon. "I think she is telling you to cluck up," responds Karex. "In America, it is shut the cluck up," exclaims Eon.

Re: A DC Animated-style HeroMachine Alien Menace An alien menace that the Wardens will soon be facing... Fabrica for the legs, HM3 for the head and Photoshop Started with this and this and after some Photoshop work ended up with this...

Re: Where is your campaign based? I live in Florida and ran a superhero campaign set in Sydney, NSW, Australia... it was back in the dark ages before the Internet and most of my info came from Encyclopedias, Atlases and travel brochures. More recently, my campaigns have been based in the United States with San Francisco being the setting for the current campaign which has been running on and off since October 1996.

Re: How much do you customize the setting? Don't really use the CU. The current Wardens campaign has drawn a lot of inspiration from comics, books and superhero RPGs just as the CU has, so there are similarities. Also might still have a couple of NPCs running around in the campaign that I took from CU or C:NM where I changed the name and filed off the serial numbers.

Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group... A few quotes from a few sessions ago in the Wardens Chronicles campaign... I am trying to catch up on getting all of the sessions documented. +++++ Karex - "Besides an alley is a great place to discuss secrets, just like in the movies" +++++ Karex - "Alright if you are pierced with strange meteoric particles again, I will not help" +++++ "Do you feel the rising of an ancient threat to fight which you have been preserved for five thousand years or so as to be here to face when it rises once more?" queries Karex. Saldar and Judah look at him sternly before continuing their conversation. "Is the threat pottery?" interrupts Karex, "Perhaps a dead Chinese emperor will arise and attack us with pottery soldiers. I think I saw it in a movie once." "No," replies Judah. "Well one strike wrong," chirps Karex. +++++ Amber - "Is this how you normally greet people?" Amethyst - "No this is not how we normally welcome visitors to the Wardens base. I am Amethyst, this is Eon, and that is Karex. You should know him. He is always in the news being a prob... um, saving people."
