  1. Quote of the Week from my gaming group...

    Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group...

     

    A couple from my Deadlands game.

     

     

    This one's best out of context:

     

    The Reverand Ray Mahoney: "I keep a special eye out, for 8 year old girls."

     

     

    This one needs a bit of back story.

     

    We've been having a few run-ins with a clan of low-lifes called the Duttons. Last session one of the Duttons challenged PC Jacob Stuart to a duel. Jacob shot him dead. Soon after that a plot hook took us out of town for several days.

     

    This session we returned to find that another Dutton, known for hanging out at a casino across town, had smashed up our favorite watering hole while trying to find Jacob. So Jacob heads across town to have words with the Dutton. When he enters the casino the owner stops him, claiming that the place is full. Rather the press the issue, Jacob asks if the owner can give Dutton a message instead. The owner says sure.

     

    "Tell him his brother wants to speak with him."

    First game of our new Deadlands campaign.

    Me as nice guy bounty hunter (think Bat Lash) Clay Taylor

    Chris as mercenary Jacob Stuart

    Nate as the Reverend Ray Mahoney

    Matt as huckster Dominic Rann

     

    Dominic, Clay, and the Reverend are sharing a compartment in a train on its way to a boomtown. Jacob has his own private compartment across the hallway. Dominic and Clay are talking to pass the time, and it comes out that Clay is the only Yankee among the group.

     

    Dominic (taking out a deck of cards): "So, is your money good Yankee?"

    Clay: ....

    Dominic: "Because if you have money, its good."

     

    Later, Clay spots some heavily armed wagons pulling alongside the train, falling alongside the rear car. Clay (a curious type) makes the logical assumption that someone intends to rob the train, pulls his pistol and goes to investigate. Jacob follows. Now its time for Nate and Matt to decide what the Reverend and Dominic will do.

     

    The Reverend Ray Mahoney: "Well, I can see that its time to do the Lord's work."

    Nate: I pull out my pistol.

    Tonight was the finale of a short Unknown Armies campaign, and with at least 5 years of Vampire under my belt, I can say this is easily the single darkest game I've ever participated in.

     

     

    An OOC quote referencing how we were about to quite literally save the universe sums it up:

     

    "Can I take 2 shots at 2 adjacent babies?"

    GM: "Does your battlesuit have a USB port?"

    Funny, that one has shown up in my games before. Although "power armor" and "your head" have been substituted for "battlesuit"

     

     

    Anyway, one from earlier tonight:

     

    About four months ago two of the group's players couldn't make it, so myself, the GM and the other player did an Unknown Armies one-shot instead. Now, to avoid Champions burnout the GM has decided to run Unknown Armies for a month. Tonight those other two players were designing their characters.

     

    While they did that we reviewed in rather graphic detail our encounter with a hermaphroditic, blobbish hentai monster. One player (Bundt Cake from my previous story) was writing a few last things on his character sheet and not paying attention. Just as we finish the story he says "How do you spell 'swallow'?"

    "Don't worry about it' date=' that would have been a Killer soliloquy if Blazestar hadn't blasted you in the middle of it."[/quote']

    *snort* Doncha just hate that?

     

    Here's a recent one from mine. One of the players made a new character and decided to not give him a hero name. Yup, a The Man With No Name situation. This being a gamer group, there was no way that would stick, and the bad nicknames flew. The one that stuck was "Bundt Cake", courtesy of me.

     

    Now at one point, our team was split up and flung through time. Bundt Cake's group ended up in a future ruled by a very powerful villain, and BC would eventually be killed at his hands (cute the rest of the group going "Buuuuuuundt Caaaaaaaake...").

     

    Long story short(er), another group ended up meeting the Fates (who tried to garrote us with the threads of fate since we'd sorta messed up the time line). Once things were settled, we learned of our team mate's death.

     

    GM as one of the Fates: "I regret to inform you that... *drawing breath to say BC's real name*

     

    Me OOC: "If you say Bundt Cake, I'll give you a dollar."

     

    *GM gives me a funny look, and I take a dollar out of my wallet*

     

    Fates: "...that Bundt Cake has fallen."

     

    *I hand over the dollar*

     

    Entire group except for BC's player: "Buuuuuuundt Caaaaaaaake..."

     

    *BC's player scowls*

    Street samurai sitting at a table in a dive bar attempts to use his legs to push his chair back to fall then roll up onto his feet drawing his sword off his back in one motion. He fails his role badly. He ends pushing his chair back and then falling backwards while still sitting in his chair gripping the sword strapped across his back.

     

    "That was so much more impressive in my head."

    LOL.

     

    I like ones where something embarrassing happens to the macho guy, but he rolls with it.

    So, in my Champions game we've recently been dealing with super-powered serial killer who has been targeting other supers. In the penultimate chapter the GM surprised us all by having the latest fatality be one of the Champions, Witchcraft to be specific. After the game wrapped we all made a point of telling him that none of us had seen it coming.

     

    GM: "Cool. Just don't tell anybody on the Hero boards. I'd never live it down."

     

    :D

  15. Char: Power Girl

    Re: Char: Power Girl

     

    I remember that. He had her picture on his undies didn't he?

    Yup, and as I recall he also had it tattooed across his back. Speaking of tattoos, he had the letters spelling "Power Girl" going across his fingers.

     

    Issues, much?

    A few decent ones tonight.

     

    Techno-Grrl is flying, giving the non-flying Johnny Bam a lift, when several missles lock onto her. She alerts the others.

     

    Fireguy: "Are they heat-seeking?"

     

    Techno-Grrl (after a missle barely misses her): "They appear to me ME seeking!"

     

    Later, Fireguy takes a shot at an unidentified person who is very likely the source of our sudden zombie problem. However, this has not been 100% confirmed.

     

    Fireguy (deadpan): "I hope you're a bad guy. *brief pause* And if you're not, I'm sorry."

     

    However, the line of the night goes to the delivery guy. We were playing somewhere other then our usual location, since one of our players just moved and wanted to show off his new place. It was only a mile or two down the road from his old place, but is much nicer.

     

    So anyway, we make our order and when it arrives, the player in question goes answers the door. When he comes back, he tells us the first thing the delivery guy said:

     

    DG: "Oh, you moved?"

    Sentinel: "For the third time, no, they are NOT nipple clamps."

     

    IM shrugs, walks out: "Your loss."

     

    Sentinel: "Huh? What? Wait, maybe they could be, hold on a sec..."

    Yeah, I'm still voting "hook up".

    Man I wish I could play in your game.

     

    This week's line came from a bit of OOC chatter while we were waiting for the take-out to arrive. The GM just bought the new Mortal Kombat game (which is quite good, for the record). After several 2 player games, the GM suggested I have a go at the single player game. Early on I take on a female character and dominate the fight.

     

    GM (who got married a few weeks ago): "Wow... You beat her like she was your wife!" *brief pause* "I probably shouldn't say things like that anymore, huh?"
