Quote 4601
<ArthurQ> how the fuck can a drow spot barbarians from a mile away, in thick forest, when they dont even have lanterns
<ArthurQ> how can ANYTHING
<Alcar> That's nothing. I want to know how dragons can breathe fire without burning their lips off thank you very much,.
<ArthurQ> Alcar: um...fire resistant skin?
<Iota> yeah dragons that breathe fire are generally fire subtype.
<Iota> in the same way djinn's can be on fire and not burn to death.
* Alcar finds it worrisome you took that serously.....
<Alcar> or gave a serious answer, for that matter
<Iota> well you're generally a twat so i just figure i'd explain it nice and slowly for you.
* Alcar suspects I should have asked how they do it and don't damage their lipstick...
* SaMnMaX becomes less serious
<Sin{Away}> No, the worrysome part was it was a game-mechanic based answer: )
Quote 4602
<AlcarGM> Oma steps back abruptly, his eyes wide and tears trickling down his cheeks. "She speaks to you, now .. but...... :" he shakes his head slowly. "That is not .... possible..."
* Silvran looks up with tear-filled eyes. "Anything's possible."
<AlcarGM> Oma: "I felt her die," softly. "Not so long ago .... "He shakes his head abrptly, then says "Next?" almost savagely
<Silvran> (<( did i fuck her? :P )>)
<AlcarGM> « considering she's ciurrently dead, I hope not :p »
<Silvran> (<( You never know! I coulda healed her skin cells and ceased rigamortis.. )>)
<aslhk> ((judging from what I've seen so far of this character, I would not be surprised if he had done just that!))
Quote 4603
* Gwen falls down to the floor and tries to push/crawl herself away from him until she finds a corner to curl up into a fetal possition and cry absolutely hystericly obviously intensely scared
<Gwen> "I, I, I dont k, know what they, why was there blood, I mean, I, I didn't I..."
* Gwen trails off into unintelligable sobbs and ramblings, words choked by fear and crying heaves
<AlcarGM> Oma blinks and shudders then cries out in a voice hard and cold and not his own "Go! Leave this place!" and jerks away with a sob. "Too strong .... too strong....."
* Gwen is fairly oblivious at this point to anything else happening around her
<AlcarGM> <Oma> shudders and says "One sleeping a tool, and traitors sleep in his mind." looks at andrew "No more gentleness." and Andew sfalls back as if someone punched him in th face and crumples unconscous.
<AlcarGM> <Oma> "No more! her .... the voice... :" he stumbles towards the elevatgor blindly
<AlcarGM> <Greg> stares at the fleeing old man then at Gwen "Maybe she killed too many people for him," icily.
* Gwen doesnt hear Greg, probobly for the best
Quote 4604
<Alcar> "Yeah, it's interesting isn't it? It's not like invoking demons will help your social skills. I assume that the lack of social skills correlates with feelings of powerlessness and magick provides a potential route to power, not to mention validating fantasizing and private self-aggrandizement." - Mark Defrates
* Alcar has no clue why that is in the UA notes. I think it might be cool for an npc to say tho :)
<aslhk> lol
<Alcar> "Calm down man, Chill. You raised THAT so you'd get a prom date? Buddy, pal, how many hours did that take? THAT many? Fuck me, you could have bought a book on social stuff for 5 bucks dude! Wait .. what do you mean it takes things literally. I did't mean f -- ahh!"
<Alcar> Hmm
* Alcar suspects I should go sleep now
Quote 4605
<ArthurQ> wtf is amber!
<Alcar> it's been different that's for sure :)
<ArthurQ> the way you guys talk about it
<ArthurQ> it sounds like a very bad girlfriend
<Alcar> Amber is an rpg based on Zelazny's novels (collected in The Great Book of Amber). It's one of the better fantasy series, and the rpg is just the best :)
<ArthurQ> describe the world to me
<DJ^Enfunkulator> ArthurQ: Hah!
<DJ^Enfunkulator> ArthurQ: You don't even get a good overview of the world after reading all of the books!
Quote 4606
<Alcar> problem is somewhat inherent to RPG combat; there's one or two things your character is good at, and usually one thing that your character's gonna be good at right now, so in a given combat you make a choice and go with it unless something weird happens. Your only other choice, in most RPG combats, is to do something other than combat.
<Iota`> my char in sin's game always does other things during combat.
<Iota`> like study a magical aura emanating from a certain enemy or area in the middle of combat with a detect magic spell.
<Iota`> he'll throw around a magic missile here and there but he has other priorities.
<ArtQ-AFK> which is really fucking annoying!
<ArtQ-AFK> you might as well NOT be there for combat
<ArtQ-AFK> um...if he's not helping us kill the thing....then wtf..
<Cthulhu_Lunatic> he makes up for combat gods who may as well not exist during role playing situations :P
<ArtQ-AFK> :-p
Quote 4607
* Gwen isnt comforted, for some reason ((;p))
* Andrew`- (( looks for a firehose ))
<AlcarGM> <Greg> looks at Gwen "I want to know what she did to him .. he was fine until he said that weird voice..."
* Silvran looks up at Greg, then back to Gwen.
<Silvran> "Gwen... Could I.. try to look in you?"
<Silvran> (<( SEE! A PORNO! NOW ANDYS GONNA BE ALL "OOPS I SPILLED THIS OIL ALL OVER MY BODY!" )>)
<Andrew`-> (( well to tell you the truth Iw as considering making my clothes tear when I got larger but I found out these things are really stretchy :P ))
Quote 4608
<Andrew`-> man, it never fails... you put one naked giant monster into a game and theres always someone who just cant stop talking about its reproductive organs :P
* AlcarGM nods. Now you know How King Kong feels. He was hiding on the Empire Stateds Builing so people wouldn't point at his genitals and make rude remarks :p
Quote 4609
* Silvran looks at Gwen. "Rip her head off."
* Tass is now known as Tass_Out
<aslhk> ((lol, these people are sick!))
* Silvran thinks to his clothes, "I'll be needing a pocket for a head."
<AlcarGM> As the woman has been bashed and crunched a LOT she does't look to be in good shape
<Gwen> "Screw you!"
<AlcarGM> <Greg> stares at Silvran incredeously
<Silvran> Hey, I don't like bitches. Dead bitches are good bitches."
<Gwen> "Sicko"
* Gwen runs back over to Andrew, half hiding behind him
Quote 4610

Quote 4611
<AlcarGM> <Greg> sighs and concentrates. The air ripples and he's holding another copy of his clothig. He staggers, shakes his head "That was .. tiring. Not air, next time.. " and tosses them to Gwen

<Gwen> "These are ugly"
<AlcarGM> They're a simple one piece grey suit
<Gwen> "I mean I guess you look ok in it ;p"
<AlcarGM> lol
<Andrew`-> (( lol ))
<Gwen> "Well less than ok, but I guess you cant do much about it"
<AlcarGM> <Greg> snaps "Just put it on."
Quote 4612
<Marcus_Fenway> Alcar, You me and Sintaqx should send each other a Check for the same amounts. Then we could put Occupation of Game Master, and deduct our Books as a Business Expense :D
<Alcar> that would be evilly funny to get away with
<Iota> i am deducting my RPG books as taxes too
<Iota> i have spent at least...
<Iota> 1300 dollars on them.
* Baliadoc just counts his characters as dependants.

<QuentinMasters> "Did you say shoes?"
<QuentinMasters> "Is this about the horses?"
* QuentinMasters looks very grave and serious
<AlcarGM> Kyle looks up "Huh? I did? Oh. Sorry. My mind was miles away..."
<AlcarGM> Kyle: "no, the horses shoes were fine,. I think. Someone has just skinned them. We still don't know how.. might have been some wacked out natives."

<Caltak> (( I bet it was him! :P ))
<Clay```> "One would assume he was a threat, then. Or you need better hired help."
<AlcarGM> <Rinaldo> "None of the ones you travelled with have that kind of power? To alter the minds of people and machines?"
<Clay```> "I haven't seen it happen. They don't include me on most of their outtings though. Being the voice of reason means being picked last for the team."
<Caltak> (( "That, and having a player whos and asshole and never plays when he's supposed to." ))
<Caltak> (( :P ))
<Clay```> ((well yes. but i like to think it's because i'm the voice of reason ;))
Quote 4623
<Alcar> ghosts are way too powerful :p
<Alcar> Unless their stat drains all became temporary.... and even then they're nasty

Quote 4626
<Alexander> how much does alexander know about magick?
<AlcarGM> Alex just knows it's a took of Satan that some people can do if they sacrifice their souls and like to hold the still beating heart of a sacrificed puppy in their hands
<Alexander> nods, of course.
Quote 4627
<AlcarGM> The door is opened by an older woman in her late 70's who looks at you, puzzled, then says "Whatever you're selling, we don't want it," firmly
<QuentinMasters> "I'm looking for Sue Water. I'm looking into the disappearance of her puppy, Sera. I wanted to ask her some questions."
<AlcarGM> The old woman nods slowly, looking sad. :"Tragic thing, to lose a puppy like that." She steps back. "She's sleeping. I'll get her up. Would you like a coffee?"
<QuentinMasters> "Yes, please."
<AlcarGM> She lets you into the kitchen, pours you a cup and goes upstairs, grumbling something about lazy granddaughters
<QuentinMasters> lol, if only she knew how industrious her grand daughter is when it comes to summoning demons! She would be proud! =P
Quote 4628
* AlcarGM nods. Actually, the oddest thing so far this session was that one NPC entering Hugh's trailer, leaving him notes and doing his dishes. I have no freaking idea why the most evil thing in this campaign would break into someones place and do their dishes for them.
<tech-sensei> mess with their head?
<337C4Bb4g3> AlcarGM: Maybe it likes doing dishes
<AlcarGM> It mseed with mine, and I wrote it :p
* AlcarGM does find it fun having NPCs develop themsleves but I'd like it better if my subconsciousness would explain this stuff.
<TexDKnght> Maybe he's a neat-freak and can't stand dirty dishes.
<AlcarGM> Well, it's not human at all, so that could explain it. Or maybe it was bored.
* AlcarGM could see washing someones dishes as the ingredient for some magickal ritual ....
<AlcarGM> Oh well. It might never even get explained.
<337C4Bb4g3> AlcarGM: Sometimes it's more fun that way ;)
Quote 4629
<AlcarGM> Hmm, I'm trying to figure out how burning a dogs crap, some of the dogs hair and some of the owners hair could be used to induce spontanous combustion....
<QuentinMasters> lol
<QuentinMasters> it's not spontaneous if it's induced!
Quote 4630
<AlcarGM> <Nicole> "The Catholics are coming? That's bad."
<QuentinMasters> "Have you dealt with them before?"
<AlcarGM> <Nicole> shakes her head. "No, but you hear weird stories, about hit squads and things.." she shrugs
<QuentinMasters> "I thought they'd be better now."
<AlcarGM> <Nicole> "They've been arund 2000 years. I'd say they're much better."
<QuentinMasters> "That's not exactly what I meant."
Quote 4631
* Elana-Silvereye is sick
<Iota> that doesn't sound very promising!
<Iota> so it's supposed to start in ten minutes?
<tech-sensei> Okay i've got pike ready
<Iota> who are the rest of the players?
<Iota> doesn't elana's game absolutely require rey be here?
<tech-sensei> If it does then we might as well call the campaign over because if rey hasn't shown for 3 weeks, it means it might as well be a single character campaign with a bunch of NPCs that spectators can control.
<tech-sensei> you see this is EXACTLY why I use the 'blob' format for my campaigns. Regardless of who shows, we can play.
<tech-sensei> Elana-Silvereye?
<Elana-Silvereye> yeah
<tech-sensei> Oh well
<tech-sensei> Game's not running.
Quote 4632

Quote 4633
<ArthurQ> ...
<ArthurQ> How can Miller be off, he had a waiting list longer then the actual player list.
Quote 4634
<Fern> "House Chanicut is not in my good books, as you may know." *smiles and pierces you with her gaze* "Besides, I think you want to tell me."
<Renard> "I've no business with House Chanicut."
<Fern> "You're denying it, then?"
<Renard> "The murder? Yes."
<Fern> "I see... well, I admit I'm disappointed."
<Renard> "Why!? I didn't murder someone! That's a good thing!"
Quote 4635
* Corynn growls and kicks the couch over into the fireplace before walking out
<Vesthyl> "Perhaps we should not bring Corynn into the city. Seems he's picke dup the manners of a wemic."
<Vesthyl> (Caltak would kill me for that :) )

<Alcar> only for paladins
<Keith> k good cus a CG druid just doesn't work
<Alcar> Actually, it could explain the druids who've become martryrs :p
Quote 4639
<FirestormZeroGM> It is a cold winter night, you are on your shift at Ninja Burger, the crisp beef patties sizzle behind you. Your ninja reflexes snap to action, before the phone even rings it is in your hands. The words "Hello this is Ninja Burger, How may I serve you" fly out of your lips like a thousand shurikens.
Quote 4640
* Alcar still finds the whole idea of half-kender terrifying...
<Chaos`^> if kenders believe if it's not in your hands you don't own it...
<Alcar> yeah, but .... ewww .....
<Chaos`^> "Mine! GIVE! if you don't give up, i will pull it off!"
<Alcar> "My god! What's that kender doing!" "I told you not to eat that last sausage and let him borrow it..."
<Alcar> CE kender: Laurana Bobbit...
Quote 4641
<Chaos`^> I sitll want to try a kender in a group of paladins
<Alcar> they'd all snap and slaughter you and become blackguards :p
<Chaos`^> that'd be worth a pc life for =p
<aslhk> definitely
<aslhk> Alcar: I don't know if slaughtering kender really counts as an ethos violation +P
<aslhk> I imagine most gods would approve!
Quote 4642
<Adwyn> "Slanderer ......" trails off, then says reflctively. "I'm starting to wonder if everything is real...... all the stories, all the myths .. somewhere...." shakes his head slowly
<aslhk> Gos: "Even mine?"
* Adwyn blinks, then says "What is yours?" and looks embarrassed
<aslhk> Gos: "My novels!"
<Adwyn> "You write novels?" in shock, then quickly "I never saw you."
<aslhk> "I was *only* the best selling romance novel on Earth." He says, looking somewhat hurt.
<Adwyn> "......."
<aslhk> (novel = novelist)
<Adwyn> "What one?"
<aslhk> (lol)

<Adwyn> "Me. Adwyn."
<aslhk> "Adwyn?" Eric walks quickly to the door and opens it.
* Adwyn nods. "I'm back."
<aslhk> Eric: "It is good to see you safe!"
<aslhk> Eric: "Where have you been?!"
<Adwyn> « ... ignores my sleep deprived mind thinking of this as some weird sexual overtone thing. »
<aslhk> ((lol))
<aslhk> ((now that would be interesting =P))
<Adwyn> « It was the "I'm back" thing for some reason ..... *shakes his head* »
<Adwyn> « more like disturbing »
<aslhk> ((two words for the same thing =P))
<Adwyn> « hehe »
Quote 4646

Quote 4649
* Hastur profers the chair to Fern
* Fern imparts by her hands-on-the-hips stance that she requires an explanation of the unconscious Nosrep
<Hastur> (( Let it not be said about Hastur that he has no manners! ))
<Fern> "How many times this week has this man been beaten unconscious?"
<aslhk> Closer inspection reveals that he is, in fact, conscious
<Hastur> "Um *thinks*"
<Hastur> "I don't know!"
<aslhk> He is just not moving
* Hastur goes back to devouring the chair, since it seems that Fern has decided to pass up on this delicacy
Quote 4650
<aslhk> Nosrep: "DAMN HIM!" Hastur can feel the angst in the air =P
<Hastur> (( lol ))
<Hastur> (( can I shapeshift other him into a less angsty d00d? ;P ))
<aslhk> ( lol )
<aslhk> ( I think shapeshift other primarily works on the physical level =P )
<Hastur> (( it was a joke! ;) ))
<aslhk> ( no such thing! )
<aslhk> (now high compelling... =P)
<Hastur> (( I didn't even TAKE shapeshifting! ))
Quote 4651
<Greg> You all fall alseep. No little elves in a mushroom ring surround you and you don't wake up in the middle of a crop circle, thbough the latter would be really funny. Andy has a weird dream about eating a pillow and wakes to find Gwen missing .. or not :p

Quote 4653
<Chaos`^> we could give them a holy avenger!
<Chaos`^> vorpal greatsword +5
<Alcar> lol. That might be too extreme :) A magical sword that i sheathed in flre/can glow would likely be enough to send most people fleeing - or inventing a fire extinguisher ....
<Chaos`^> hmm.. ice elementals are trapped in a prison of steel, they have a death sentance to be torn apart and to be thrown into a fire!!!
<Chaos`^> fire extinguishers
<Chaos`^> I wouldn't recomend a blade of fire in a world of black powder =T
<Alcar> Something flashy though .. singng dancing sword! j/k
<Chaos`^> maybe a sword made of chiseled ice or something
<Chaos`^> with a 'frozen touch' or something that deals xdx cold damage
* Alcar pulls out the blade and instead of a hissing from the sheathe you hear, "and a one, two, three, four.."
<Alcar> Yeah, that'd work. also help put out them fires :)

Quote 4656
* Ryu-FeatherFoot goes on over setting the bucket of water down next to the mid wife and takes on of the hands for the woman giving birth
<Ryu-FeatherFoot> "Its ok, Its going to be all done with soon..."
<AlcarDM> The house is a large clutter of brik brak, everyhing from stuffed heads to bottles to old swords all placed all oer the walls and ceiling and used as tables or chairs seemingly at random. There's a fireplace in one corner along with a kitchen table etc. and 2 doors to other rooms at the far end. The middle is dominated by a coffee-style table. An older woman is standing over a yong girl, who is on the ground and crying. She looks to be about 7
<AlcarDM> The girl looks up, smiling . "3 of them!" and holds up some kittens, then says "wait, you're not Jorge..... who are you?!"
Quote 4657
* Ryu-FeatherFoot eyes the house a bit and the woman "Nice place you have here.."
<AlcarDM> She smiles and nods. "It's been in the family for a long time."
<Ryu-FeatherFoot> "Wow hole week? thats great!"

<Ryu-FeatherFoot> "Its been in your family for a long time right.. that meens you've had it a week.. week and a half tops"

<Ryu-FeatherFoot> "Nothing that doesn't seem to just be funny talk"
<AlcarDM> <Hariet> sips her tea "such as?"
<Ryu-FeatherFoot> "A halfling vampire" *chuckles a bit* "Thats a bit much wouldn't you say?"
<AlcarDM> <Hariet> almost spills her tea. "A halfling? As a vampire?" she chortles. "That is a bit much, they're all far too nice."

<aslhk> Well, the tree is pretty straightforward
<aslhk> it's the times that are difficult!
<aslhk> Is adwyn trying to figure them out?
* Adwyn nods. Trying to figure them all out :)
* Adwyn mutters something about a vasectomy
<aslhk> According to Brillig, the exact time differentials of a number of births are under great contest
<aslhk> It seems that they varied oddly. There is some conjecture that Oberon did this to keep the line of succession blurry
* Adwyn mutters "No kidding...." *shakes his head, sighs, and just tries to get the names straight. "I could have grandparents younger than me...."
Quote 4661
<aslhk> Closest to Amber is a clothing store which is obviously frequented by only the most wealthy residents of the city--its window shows a number of beautiful dresses
* Hastur approaches the store window, and looks at the dresses more closely
<Hastur> "These are nice!"
* Fern runs up to the window and peers inside
<Fern> "We're going in here, Hastur! You'll wait while I try things on, right?!"
<aslhk> There are three dresses on display, one black with white highlights, one varying shades of blue, and one a solid forest green.
<Fern> ( bwahahah, guys will NEVER do that )
* Hastur points to the black and white one
<Hastur> "I like that one!"
* Hastur looks over at fern, then back at the dresses, then walks into the store
* Fern enters the store and looks around
* Hastur walks up to the shopkeeper
<Hastur> "Hi! I want the black and white dress in the window!"
Quote 4662
* Fern catches on to what Hastur is up to, and looks apalled
<Hastur> (( You never snuck and peeked in his wardrobe? :P ))
<Hastur> (( he likes nice dresses! give the guy a break! ))
Quote 4663
* Hastur allows the servant to help *coughs* him into it
<aslhk> The servant helps Hastur into her new dress.
<Cain`^> (( *wrong* *wrong* *Wrong* *bad mental image* ))
<Hastur> (( bwahahah, you haven't seen anything yet, my poor gimpy friend! ))
<Cain`^> (( Who said I was gimpy? I'm fully healed! ))
<Fern> ( lol, Cain`^ )
<Hastur> (( I didn't mean physically! ;) ))
<Cain`^> (( I'm not gimpy! ))
Quote 4664
<Cain`^> (( Fern, are you related in any way to cabbage and aslhk? ))
<Fern> ( thank god, no ;p )
<Hastrude> (( We went to the same HS ))
<Cain`^> (( You act so much like them.. it makes me wonder.. ))
<Fern> ( no offese, cabbage or aslhk )
<Cain`^> (( maybe it was the highschool then ))
<Fern> ( bite your tongue, cain )
<Cain`^> (( That would hurt =( ))
Quote 4665
<Fern> "Let's go talk to Cain."
<aslhk> Mandor: "His chamber is just across the way."
<aslhk> He nods to the two of you
<Fern> "I saw this documentary on TV once about a dog that had a shattered pelvis so that it couldn't walk, and it had this device with wheels on it so it could move around, and it's kind of inspirational, you know? I want to tell him about it and wish him well soon."
<aslhk> Mandor laughs aloud
<Hastrude> "He must heal fast if he is awake already!"
Quote 4666
<Cain`^> "Hmm.. I think I lost my sword in that fight.. that's too bad, it took me 100 years to make that sword.."
<Hastrude> "It melted..."
<Adwyn> « 100 years? What did you do, quench it 100 times in the blood of still born puppies? »
<Cain`^> "You were there?"
<Cain`^> (( ... Maybe? ))
Quote 4667
<Hastrude> "Bye, Vorel! I hope you get better soon, and don't try to kill me again!"
<Cain`^> "Err.. sure thing.. I'll try.. Not like I remember last time.."
* Hastrude takes Fern's hand and half skips out of the room, smiling now
* Cain`^ falls asleep in his clean bed =p

<Warner> Alcar the canabalism thing was just because you said "k. Off to eat myself" :)
<Alcar> Ok, ok. Now I'm relieved :p
Quote 4670
<Warner> Alcar Im not done with my sheet yet but I have enough to get you started. shall I send what I have now?
<Warner> rather then make you read everything at the end
<Alcar> lol
<Alcar> Continuing in my own tradition of playing PCs who bring along way to much bagage ....
* Alcar expected players to write out their family, not bring them along on the campaign ;p
<Alcar> This should be fun.
Quote 4671
<AlcarDM> You can easily go in through the broken door.
* Ryu-FeatherFoot heads in to search for Walter
<Ryu-FeatherFoot> "WALTER WALTER??"
* Ryu-FeatherFoot of corse in this case pockets something of intorest
<AlcarDM> You find him in the kitchen .. or, rather, you find what you assume to be him . .an old man lying crumpled on the ground, most of the bons in his body broken. The blood is fresh (2 hours dead, tops) and he seems to have been bashed to death with the kitchen chair and cut up by a sword.
<Ryu-FeatherFoot> "wow I didn't know you could use a kitchen chair like that"
Quote 4672
<AlcarDM> The rain forms the face of an older human woman you've never seen, and then an arrow . .pointing north .. then it's wshed away savagely

<Ghenn> "Hmm. Don't see that every day."
<Orgg> "You may come with me, elf."

<Ghenn> "Heh. Wizards tricks. You're probably gonna get yourselves killed."
<Theliar`^> "My instincts tell me that the goddess of the land wants an execution tonight.."
<Orgg> "Everyone has a time to die."
<Ghenn> "Glad this ain't mine."
Quote 4673
<AlcarDM> Does Orgg want to keep going to Stonywell or take his chances in the Dark Wood again?
<Orgg> AlcarDM: He's asking the rock!
<Sparkie> Orgg 1d2: 2 1 Stonywell, 2 Dark wood
<Theliar`^> "Let's uh.. let's go this way.. I know forests pretty good, let me lead the way.."
<Orgg> (going towards stonywell--the rock lied to him last time)
* Orgg picks up his rock again
<Orgg> "Which way?"
* Theliar`^ points down the dark wood
<Orgg> "You're siding with the rock?"
* Theliar`^ looks at the rock "They've never lied to me before.."
<Orgg> "Then let's go."
* Ghenn starts to wonder about how sane of a choice this was.
<Theliar`^> (( Ofcourse, I've never asked a rock a question.. so inessence, it's a true statement! ))
Quote 4674
<AlcarDM> You all appear back in #game1!
<Orgg> Noooooooooooo!

* Ghenn hates teleportation
<Sparkie> Ghenn 1d20+1: 21(20) !
<Orgg> lol
<Orgg> he makes it!
<Ghenn> the crits always succeed thing?
<Orgg> Ghenn: 20 on check means +10 more or some such
<Ghenn> wow. can't believe i actually made it
<Theliar`^> he still makes it
<Ghenn> i feel i should take a point of Knowledge (Out of Character) now :)
<AlcarDM> lol. Sure :p
* AlcarDM will even let you roll it sometimes :)
<Theliar`^> yes, hunches are very cliche
Quote 4675
<AlcarDM> The goddess likes people who think for themselves :)
<AlcarDM> and obey her orders, of course.
<Ghenn> of course
<Ghenn> blind obedience is free will!
<Ghenn> very 1984
Quote 4676
* Theliar`^ looks on Orgg's person for any type of skin full of alcohol..
<Theliar`^> "Orgg, do you keep any type of alcohol?"
<Orgg> "Not for long."
Quote 4677
* Theliar`^ grumbles and looks around the cottage for anything highly combustable...
* Theliar`^ thinks some more about how to kill a helpless old woman with a kender...
Quote 4678
* Theliar`^ quicly takes off his blody wet robe and puts it over what flames remain
* Theliar`^ is a naked elf putting out a fire with a wet robe
* Ghenn falls out of his tree now
* Orgg moves over to Theliar`^
* Ryu-FeatherFoot shoves his hoopak where the sun don't shine
* Orgg allows him to finish putting out a fire before hitting him =P
<AlcarDM> <Hariet> regards the elf appreciately, and says something about wishing she was 40 years younger :)
* Theliar`^ finishes putting the fire out and puts his blackened robe back on
* Orgg wasn't expecting Theliar`^ to put on his robe, so his swing goes wild!
<AlcarDM> Orgg was expecting the elf to start frolicking? :p
* Theliar`^ falls backward as orgg tries to hit where he was
* Ryu-FeatherFoot misses as he bends as the elf bends over
Quote 4679
* Theliar`^ chants something loudly outloud and forces negative energy to flow from his body, and onto the kender's skin
<Theliar`^> "Stop it! I need to talk to her!"
* Ryu-FeatherFoot lets out a scream
<AlcarDM> <Hariet> turns around, and says sharply. "That is enough! He is my guest, you ill mannered elf!"
* Theliar`^ looks at the woman "You do have an evil sense in you... Are you sure you're not evil?"
<Ryu-FeatherFoot> "Do evil people have house guests?"
<Theliar`^> "Most do, yes, atleast.. evil elves.."
<AlcarDM> <Hariet> stares at the elf for a long moment, then shakes her head. "And to think I was getting lonely with lack of guests besides Lelia..."
<Theliar`^> "All I know is that I was told to kill you by tonight... I mean, I don't want to anger the gods here, they might condemn my soul or something.."
<AlcarDM> Theliar finds himself distracted by Orgg :p
* Orgg punches Theliar`^ square in the face
<Orgg> "Using MAGIC in a fight! You coward! You pansy elf!"
Quote 4680
* Theliar`^ gets hit in the face
<Theliar`^> "Ouch! Son of a kender that hurt."
<Theliar`^> "I didn't use 'magic' it is in no way related to nor considered magic at all."
* Ghenn blinks
<Ghenn> "He just got punched... and's arguing semantics!"
* Ghenn falls back out the window laughing again
<Orgg> "Don't lie to me, wizard! No servant of the Gods would burn someone's house down!"
<Theliar`^> "Ofcourse they would, if the gods asked them to..."
Quote 4681
<Ryu-FeatherFoot> "OK thats it, its Hariet's house, we let her deside, do we hog die the elf and go find a pissed of badger or just toss him out into the rain"
<AlcarDM> <Hariet> closes her eyes and shakes her head, then begins pouring tea. "If someone could right the table, we could discuss this calmly. Though I do admit to liking strapping young men fighting over me."
Quote 4682
<Theliar`^> "Hitting a man in the face while he is being held down by a kender.. that is cowardice."
<Orgg> "You call me a coward? Name your time, and we shall settle this!"
<Orgg> "Well, I am waiting!"
<Theliar`^> "As you will be for eternity.. We elves have patience, something you may not possess."
<Orgg> "If you continue much longer in this tone, you will not possess it either."
<Orgg> "Because you will be dead."
Quote 4683
* Theliar`^ pulls out his amulet now
* Orgg quaffs his tea
<Theliar`^> "See, this means I'm a cleric.." *mumbles something*
<AlcarDM> The amulet does nothing - currently.
* Theliar`^ puts the amulet back on, and hides it under his robe
<Orgg> "Anyone can wear jewelry." *in a tone that suggest that only a certain type of person would choose to*
<Theliar`^> "Yes, but this jewelry means I'm a cleric.."
Quote 4684
* Ghenn climbs into the window finally, still breathing heavily
* Ryu-FeatherFoot sees Ghenn come crawling threw the window and fall to the floor "Tea?"
<Orgg> "Ghenn Blacksteel! What are you doing here?"
<Ghenn> "Phew. No thanks. My stomach is in too much pain for food or drink. Thank you though."
<Ghenn> "I followed the two of you, figuring you'd probably get into trouble. And it was me who almost died laughing!"
<Orgg> "You have a strange sense of humour."
Quote 4685
<AlcarDM> <Hariet> looks at Theliar. "And I think the king of person who would think an old lady was serious about poisoning people when he hadn't drankk the tea needs lessons in manners. You're a gues tin my home, and all you talk about is wanting me or some other poor old lady dead - for no reason!"
<Ghenn> "That was the funniest progression of events I've ever witnessed."
<Theliar`^> "You still freak me out.. You're pretty crazy.."
* Orgg laughs loudly
<Orgg> "She is crazy!?"
* Ryu-FeatherFoot gets up from the table and bissys him self putting the book shelf back in order and seeing just whats left of the scrolls
<Ghenn> "This coming from the man who set the house on fire, then jumped in it..." *snicker* "You're usually supposed to leave the places you set on fire... elf!" *guffaws into his arm*
* Orgg begins chuckling, then starts laughing progressively louder

Quote 4686
<Ghenn> "Well, I see. I can understand having something against elves. Especially when they try to burn you alive."

<337C4Bb4g3> And there are tons of psychopaths in that game ;b
<aslhk> this one is serial killer style psychopath =P
<337C4Bb4g3> So was my character!
<aslhk> he was a serial killer? =P
<337C4Bb4g3> Well, he was a multiple murderer, I guess, not a serial killer, technically
Quote 4688
<ElanaGM> and stats dont matter a whole lot, its loosely D20 based freeform

<337C4Bb4g3> a 10 strength char has a 50% chance to start drowning
<337C4Bb4g3> with 4 ranks in swim (max for level 1), it's 30%
<337C4Bb4g3> that's just STUPID ;b
<Alcar> could use a feat or two as well :p
<Alcar> there's a col (and munchy) FR feat that turns a cross clas int class skill and gives you +2 in it as well
<Alcar> Cosmopolitan
<Alcar> using it for Swim would be weird, tho :)

<Caltak> Hey, that works for me as far as I know now, except for Wednesday when I'm doing an in-person D&D game. (*GASP!*)
<Caltak> Hehe I'm so used to IRC gaming that I actually suggested we have little hats or something, and take them off when speaking Out-of-character so we dont get things confused. I was shocked when a couple people actually considered it!
Quote 4694
<Dale> Caltak: We used OOC symbols in my RP group
<Dale> Most people held up a closed fist to indicate OOC
<Dale> But the DM was evil
<Dale> So I held up a closed fist with one finger extended
<Dale> Some visiting guy thought I had tourette's
