Remember "Singing in the rain"? Yes, Death Tribble was the rain.

L. Marcus gets seasick on a longship and his hair is too fuzzy-wuzzy for a nasal helmet. But he gets by.

Never tell Death Tribble after he insulted you that only sticks and stones can break your bones - cuz he then attacks you with a sledgehammer! Yes, he is what I know you are now thinking he is ... and worse!

BlueCloud2k2 almost blew the SALT 2 talks between the USA and the USSR when he misspelled the country table-tags ("USR and USSA") and served tequila while requiring the drinkers to wear silly sombreros. Only a two quickly brought cases of Parlaiment Vodka and Jack Daniels and the assurance of the Icelandic police to both heads of states that they would throw BC into a live vulcano saved the talks, the day, humanity. BC was only spared a fiery death because some trolls blocked the street to his execution and elves freed him from the police-van. Moral: If you plan stupid, silly stuff upsetting two super-powers always have your supernatural allies close by.

I would rather drink 16 hundred gallons of fluid soap than a can of root beer. How people in the States (and Canada I guess) actually PAY for something so vile is beyond me. An aquired taste I presume - like putrified shark that people in Iceland eat (and other things even the cat wouldn't drag in ...) BlueCloud2k2 once invited the leaders of all the sets of the Crips and the Bloods streetgangs of L.A, to a gangbang. Detail he forget to tell the horny fellows was that it was just them, him and a bunch of hand-grenades! BC is right now in the process of running out of places to hide being on the gangbangers' death list and all. Last I heard is that Edward Snowden let him crash on the couch for a couple of nights.

I am a sandbox-fan.

Champions is Superheroes. Don't drag it into other genres especially since I always thought that FH is kinda generic in its approach and not just for playing ultra-heroes who take the lunch-money from dragons on their way to "Evil Dragon School". I like LEGENDS but there is a game called Legend by Mongoose. Quest is alos kinda taken. Waht about going "foreign"? In Germany a lot of games (even games that originate in Germany) have English names, for instance Dungeonslayers, Arcane Codex, Freelancers, Private Eye, Space Gothic etc. Why not go for a German name (50+ Mio people in the USA have German roots). German is not to outlandish (being ... well, of Germanic language roots), not to hard to pronounce correctly and would give the whole line a distinctive flair - maybe you culd even create a "generic" German fantasy setting for it (worked out great for WHFRP - but I would use a more medieval setting). Here my two Pfennige: 1) Main Book: LEGENDEN (Legends), HELDEN (HEROES), Auf ins Abenteuer! (Forward to Adventure!) 2) Monster Handbook: Monster & Ungeheuer (Monsters & Abnominations), FEINDE (Foes) 3) Grimoire: ZAUBEREI (Sorcery) 4) Setting: Die Welt der Grauen Berge (The World of Grey Mountains) Just to give the discussion a new spin.

It isn't Alzheimer who is acting up, it is BC who is throwing a hissy fit and creating a ruckus in the old folks' home. Oh, is Friday approaching already ...?

Teargas, pepperspray or BlueCloud2k2 farting - who can tell the difference? All three make your eyes burn like hell, but only BlueCloud' Very Special give you that special burning sensation down your throat right to your stomach, making it cramp and you going down on your knees, begging a merciful god to end your suffering. Oh, and you lose all your hair. Especially in your nostrils. Some people even lose their noses - or cut them off in a desperate (if futile) attempt to ease the stink. Now let me tell you about his special garlic chili, onion stew and hot pepper beans diet ...

BlueCloud2k2 does not understand why children of all ages laugh happily whenever they see him, cheer and dance and hug him and ... No, wait: I was thinking of Santa Claus! No, the kids find BC quite abhorrent actually. Even when he plays Santa Claus for money in the malls is is quite nasty and badmouthed that they call him Santa Cuzzed! That he does not give them presents but just kicks in the backside does not endear him to the little shitters, either.

BlueCloud2k2 is the reason why Ghengis Khan conquered Asia and half of Europe - he needed some buffer between him and the Blue Cloud!

I just finished reading other comment's by family's of criminals who got shot "on the job" complaining about the perp being shot (fatally or otherwise) while not even thinking of the wrongdoing that lead to the shooting (and sometimes killing) of their family member. The audacity and stupidity makes me want to ... (no I am not writing that). BTW, just for notice: Being German and Germany being country were it is very hard to own a gun leagally and were everybody is runnung his mouth against the US right to bear arms and being not liberal but on the FAR LEFT I just want to say that I find nothing bad about upstanding citizens having the right to defend themself. I have a problem with a certain "cult" about that right. I do think that the guy on the above website who carries a Carl Gustav anti-tank-weapon openly in a street in Kansas (most likely to comically "out-do" the Teaxans on their "Open Carry"-Day) went overboard. And I fully subscribe to the viewpoint of the bearingarms-guy that people who joke playfully around with live weapons should be punished severely (one of the first things they teach you at the Bundeswehr: Don't play with the gun. Don't even shoot at the sergeant - makes him sad and unwanted.). But if you are a upright, responsible citizen with no criminal record and you feel the need to be armed (and most people don't carry guns around to feel cool, they feel un-protected - which IS THE PROBLEM that needs to be addressed in the fisrt place), you should have the right to own and carry a gun. End of rant. No intention to hijack the thread. Just felt the need to make that statement. Really the end now. I swear.

Death Tribble was Dolph Lundgren'd body double as He-Man in "Masters of the Universe" - during the whoel movie. He was in so much a better shape than Dolph that they opted to always film him and plant Dolph's head on top. Dolph wanted to hire Death Tribble again for "Red Scopion" but DT declined - the screen writing was sooo bad that Dolph had to do this dreck himself. The sunburn he got served him right!

Death Tribble has a sweet tooth - his other alias is Count Chocula!

At least I grew up. So did BlueCloud2k2. Kinda. He is now BIG Red Riding Hood and has a Wine & Cake Delivery Service. If he is 30 minutes late you don't have to pay, but it usually also means that you don't get your order because he was (again) swallowed by the Wolf.

Death Tribble came up with the name of the evil space-station of destruction in Star Wars - the Death Star. He named it after himself (first name only obviously). Good for the fans that his first name isn't Happy Rainbow Unicorn ...

I had it and BLEW CHUNKS! Unless you need a program that lets you encounter wizards in the streets of Hudson City and you really need to know that the wind blows from the North-East in Lafayette Park. Never did I spend money any worse than on that program.

And here are the others. How I acomplish with ease where lesser men fail, you ask? 1) My Google Fu is strong. 2) The Force is with me. 3) I am the Favourite of the Gods (Ra especially) and Beloved of Isis. 4) The rest is Prussian efficiency.

I have some of those you are looking for (the first three) included with this post. The others I don't have. Hope it helps. P.S.: excuse the missspelling in the first's title. Me no come from English-speaking country, you know (and I only saw it when it was already uploaded).

BlueCloud2k2 tries to sabotage the Easter Bunny's effort every single year. And every single year he fails miserably. Still, hats off to his pig-headed stuborness (even if Wile. E. Coyote has had a better success rate against Roadrunner than BC against that Bunny).

And who enrolled all the underaged ninjettes and assassin-babies just before the match? BC2k2!

L. Marcus is the Ghost of the Spectre of the Wraith of the Phantom of the Opera. Yes, he is a Haunter's Haunter's Haunter. The job isn't much but pays the rent of the Spooky Castle and it is better than being the Poltergeist of the Hound of the Baskervilles. There he had to throw the ball for the stupid dog all night long. And night's in Dartmoor can be long and chilly, I can tell you that. Makes you rattling your chains and howling like a Banshee on fire! (Needless to say, both things got the job in the first place.)

Hollywood turned BC's life story into a movie. Has anyone seen "Who framed Roger Rabbit"?

Spence and Rebar hit the nail right on the head with 1) If you get points for it, then it is a Complication that will complicate your characters live. 2) if the Complication does not fit the campaign, then you can't take it. And I would add: If your character has the same feature as another character but your character has no Complication for it (and thus no points), then it shouldn't be a hinderance (or hardly ever). Red hair Example: Tom "Red" O'hair and Tim Scarlett walk into a bar. Tom "Red" has taken the DF: Bright Red hair. Tim has also bright red hair, but didn't want it as a Complication, only as a feature (like his height of 6'1 and his 10 shoe-size). To liven things up the GM decides to make the Complications worth their points, so he decides that two patrons in the bar have a strong dislike of red-haired guys. But, since only "Red" got any points, they both gang-up on Tom while Tim, if he does not want to help, can stand at the bar and watch the show. Unfortunately for him his Enemy spiked his drink with poison ...

Death Tribble's 18th birthday party inspired the plot of the movie "Zombie Holocaust". Actually, "inspired" is not fully correct - a lot of the most drastic scence were video footage.
