Re: Champions Universe History and Continuity My first reaction to 5E during a con game: "What the hell? When did Freon and Oculon become competent?!"

Re: THE BOOK OF THE MACHINE: What Do *You* Want To See? Oh man, a sentient spambot...*shudders*

Re: THE BOOK OF THE MACHINE: What Do *You* Want To See? Chickens are tricky little bastards that shouldn't be taken lightly! On a more serious note, critters considered "insignificant" might make ideal spy drones/covert weaponry if the robotics involved are that lifelike.

Re: Order of the Stick The questions are then, A> is Haley finally going to unveil her reasons why she needs so much loot & B> if she does, will Celia still be Lawful Anal enough to not budge?

Re: Order of the Stick And now the shoe is looking to drop with #621...

Re: THE BOOK OF THE MACHINE: What Do *You* Want To See? So no Fantasy HERO Mechanon then, I take it?

Re: THE BOOK OF THE MACHINE: What Do *You* Want To See? "Onyxia! Broodmother of the Black Dragonflight! Say hello to...GNOMISH BATTLE CHICKEN!!!!"

Re: Powerless Truly indeed, Superman is a Dick. Actually, I'd like to know about that too. My character Prospero is immortal and approximately 165 yrs old due to his powers (and throughout the years has changed both his secret & super identities to adapt with the times). Either he's dead, mortal but back in the late 19th/early 20th century back in England (and probably soon to be sent to an asylum thanks to these strange memories -- he was already considered "shellshocked" due to a tragic campaign in India where he accidentally got his powers) or mortal in the present time in America with some very [MEEP]ed up memories. And considering one of his enemies he'd have memories of is a dream demon who calls itself "The Living Nightmare", this might very well be its doing...

Re: THE BOOK OF THE MACHINE: What Do *You* Want To See? Go hog-wild with practically anything and everything in human evolution could be considered a "mutation" (left-handed/eye color/straight hair/sexuality/hypoglycima/etc) and things are pretty much [MEEP]ed via computer logic.

Re: Order of the Stick #619 is up!

Re: He still looks like a people! Or why he hasn't tried to pull a Skynet and upload himself into everything.

Re: THE BOOK OF THE MACHINE: What Do *You* Want To See? Do 4th Ed. characters that have a link to Mechanon like Peacekeeper or the Engineer still exist?

Re: Order of the Stick And a new one is finally up!

Re: The Littlest Fireman Maybe an Aid to Ego (only useable on those with Psych Lim.: Pyrophobia)?

Re: Order of the Stick We are either going to see Celia finally get her own Crowning Moment of Awesome or this is gonna bite her on her celestial butt hard.

Re: Order of the Stick

Re: I killed a fellow PC last night... I remember a not-so good game (let's just say never trust a grinning GM when he allows the HERO newbie to run the equivalent of Doctor Strange and said newbie has no idea how to work a VPP). Newbie wasn't a very nice guy in real life and his character wasn't much better. ("Our brick is fighting a Fire Elemental in a narrow mine shaft? I know...I'll throw a fireball at them!") So when the brick got hit by a mind control and was told to destroy the mage's sanctum, he took to it VERY eagerly.

Re: I killed a fellow PC last night... The GM runs a character? I'd consider that necessary NPC weeding...

Re: Order of the Stick Heh. But if she's serious about wanting to role-play a total pacifist, pack wands of Polymorph Other or Sleep or Hold Person. Or Tanglefoot bags. Dunno if there's a D&D equivalent of the mini-Cyclone spell or Entangling Roots that WoW Druids can cast, but there's another option. Boom. Sentient mook challenges are overcome without betraying your pacifist principles (ergo XP gained without killing) and without being a detriment to the rest of the group.
