Re: Quote of the Week from my gaming group...
 
Here's one, but it's not from my session or even from my gaming group.
 
It's from my girlfriend, whose only exposure to RPing has been in patiently listening to me rant about it.
 
It's hard to tell it for full effect, you sorta had to have been there, but...
 
She was talking about how it's pretty much impossible to come up with truly unique plots etc when writing etc, and the reason for this is that the vast majority of ideas have been thought of, and so we have this pool of common knowledge that gets reused, and new ideas are rare because we aren't allowed to use out of character knowledge.
 
Believe me, the first time she said it, it was done perfectly. *Tear* So proud.

I like GM fiat as much as the next GM, but I also like to know how to write an ability up.

Re: Self Defeating Powers
 

My GM actually made me buy 10 points of sight group flash defense for my old blind mage, because "It isn't fair that his limitation makes him immune to something as powerful as a flash"
When he insisted that I couldn't have any ranged spells because I'd have no way to aim them (thats the fun of it!) I gave up and created a sword-chucker.
Also, on the DR point - Vulnerability is applied before defenses, DR after, so you still take more damage.
 
Anyways, here's my entry (assume 10 STR character)-
I've Got a Knife! - +10 STR, Only to wield weapons (-1 1/2), Does Not Add to base STR (-0) Real Cost: 4
Seppuku - 2d6 HKA, NND (Prozac), Does Body (90 Active Points), Self Only (-1/2), OAF (Knife, -1), Required Hands (Two-Handed, -1/2) Real Cost: 30
