Nadarr: Can I roll Knowledge: Backstory: Medusa?


DM: I would slap you if we were in the same state.


Julio: Some musicians drop the bass; I drop the bag on the Medusa.


Aedan: You have no idea how dull this character is since the amnesia wore off, and I never thought I'd say that.


Finley: I have an area attack! It's called I walk into an area and I get attacked!


Nadarr: Did the one I kill die?
DM: ........ Yes.

For months, I RP'd on these forums with color! I colored every piece of speech that came out of my characters' mouth! On mobile!

That's right, I type out the color codes! Manually! On touchscreen keyboards! I memorised X11 colors so I could type every character on mobile! Kids these days...

Well now you're just showing off. :smalltongue:
I lack the patience to type out bb code on my tablet. It has an annoying auto-complete feature that I can't turn off.



It gets funnier when you know that Corey isn't really Canadian. He's actually a Clone Of Ray. The player's phone went off right after he finished explaining such and he unintentionally went: "...eh?" Corey was immediately saddled with being Canadian.

Yeah, that does get funnier. XD


Fighter: *uses keys to open door, then shoves the Warlock through*

Awfully nice of 'em to open the door first. Some players just shove the warlock through the keyhole.



Me, wildly gesticulating in the Warlock's face: Hey! I resemble that comment!

*Snerk* Well, there is some truth to it. ^^;



Aedan: You have no idea how dull this character is since the amnesia wore off, and I never thought I'd say that.

This in the context of the character losing their main quirk/fault? Cause I know how that goes. ^^
Losing a character's driving flaw leaves the character a bit flat if there's nothing new to fill in the gap. Assuming that is what it is.

Heath: “Tragedy is ‘I stubbed my toe’. Comedy is ‘You broke your leg’.”
Michelle: “I thought Comedy = Tragedy + Time?”
GM: “Tragedy tomorrow. Comedy tonight!”

Issac: “Isaac goes to the academy library. If it’s open, he chats with the skeleton library staff (figurative, not literal!)”
Jake: “Skeletons? At the Inquisition library? Time for some good ol'-fashioned purging, boys and girls!”
Issac: “Do you think there might be a context-insensitive commander somewhere in the Inquisition, overreacting to things like that?”
Commander Context: “What? The ship's sailing with a skeleton crew!?” *orders airstrike*
Commander Context: “Ghoulish reporters? Send in the squads.”
Commander Context: “You were harassed by what on an internet forum!?”

GM: “Inquisitors are more like specialized SWAT teams with occasional spy/secret agent duties. At least, that's the current situation...”
Heath: “Cue ominous music.”

GM: “The guys head to the shooting range. It seems you're scheduled for immediate shooting assessment.”
Issac: (rolls poorly) “I apologize in advance if this gets us assignments as Context's personal aides.”
GM: “Well, you got at least one perfect shot with the rifle. A fluke, I'm sure.”
Heath: “I'm going to assume there's a scope on it as a sniper rifle.”
Issac: “Ach! There was a scope?”
Jake: “Sigh, of course the planned pistol specialist utterly botches the pistol rolls.”
Karl: “Yeaa.... I hope I didn't hit anyone with those two [nat] 1's with the AK.”

Issac: “Ah, the running, jumping, climbing and swimming. My other least favorite part of basic training.”

Paladin: I pray to my god for a better way to communicate!
DM: In addition to unintelligible grunts and noises, you may now use hand gestures.

Me, wildly gesticulating in the Warlock's face: Hey! I resemble that comment!

I personally use Hackers' Keyboard, which places the square brackets in a rather convienant location. And now I've revealed my deep dark secret!

Actually, the amnesia was brought on by staring into a magic cloud for too long. His character just keeps being overshadowed by other members of the party (he multiclassed, so is less effective), and is not as much fun to play anymore. Losing his memory temporarily was an amusing distraction, but apparently not enough to save the character. So, we're swapping him out in the next session.

A modern setting where magic exists, is inherently evil, and we're new recruits within a military organization trained to go fight it.

We've actually been trying to swap him out the past few sessions, but for some reason, the dice wouldn't let him die. Luckily, next week we're at a spot where it makes sense for the character to just simply leave.

Some highlights from my Exalted career:

Zenith: "I'm going to counterattack ALL OF YOUR TEETH! TWICE."

Me: "You wake up minus pants, hanging out of a barn second-story window.
Night: "Ah, just like when I was a teenager."

Me (to Zenith): "So to tactically temporarily deafen the rest of the party, that'll be a Strength + Medicine roll."
Night: "This is a wonderful idea!"
Twilight: "We'll call it acu-punch-ure."

Dawn: "Goddammit, the mouse is getting more action than I am!"

Terra: "Gods, what is that awful stench?"
DM: As you say that, a large, shaggy thing leaps from the bushes, rushing over to Xaltaer. It lunges at him, pinning him to the ground, before sitting on his chest. Eeveryone make a fortitude save.
Everyone except Terra: *Fails*
DM: With a thunderous blast, the creature releases a cloud of noxious fumes. Everyone except Terra is busy coughing and gagging. Xaltaer, you are unconscious from the smell.
Xaltaer: Thank god.
Terra: I attack it. *20 damage*
DM: The creature shrieks and dashes off, taking Xaltaer with it.
Lance: "*Cough, wheeze* Did we just get robbed by a dutch-ovening Sasquatch?"
Vick: "And it took our caster!"
Samson: "Thank god it wasn't pretty. Or it would have been me."
DM: At that moment, Samson is grabbed by a swooping Harpy and carried off."

Ouch! That's a really good one-liner to start a fight with. :3


Lance: "*Cough, wheeze* Did we just get robbed by a dutch-ovening Sasquatch?"

Random. O.o


"You can loot the sacred crypt of Sarenrae, but you have to do it by the book!"

They have a book for that?!

Michelle: “So those are the numbers for the ladies to beat? Challenge accepted.”
Issac: “Don't make our mistake, read the rules of shooting!”
Heath: “Or take the challenge and beat us at our own game!”
Michelle: “Wait, so does this mean following the rules is cheating?”
Issac: “Yes. Yes it does.”

GM: “To respond to the request: This is the military. You're really not likely to be able to requisition custom crafted, high quality gear as a cadet.”
Issac: “I was assuming the response would be ‘Hm. Interesting. Now, here's your billy club and cardboard hat’.”
GM: “Oh, come on. You're part of an elite academy training to become the most elite units in the military. Your helmets will at least be plastic.”

Issac: “National history [class], in a military institution? They may as well call it propaganda class…”

Michelle: “Overall, pretty average. Almost as if she's a cadet in her first year. ...oh.”
Jennifer: “That wasn't too bad! Actually outshot Michelle despite being non-proficient.”
Michelle: “The dice roller here has always loved you more.”

Jennifer: “Jennifer congratulates her team on their performance, before heading fire the showers and a change of clothes.”
Michelle: “Ouch, that's a pretty hot way to get clean.”

May: “And besides; if she can't be the best at obstacle-course running, she's damned well going to be the best at academics.”
Jennifer: “Having May and Jennifer in the same group is going to be awesome for so many reasons.”
May: “They're either going to end up fighting or, well... “
Michelle: “...or Michelle is going to be holding their equipment more often while they study?”
Jennifer: “It's a distinct possibility! Although that would also be fraternization and therefore another epic source of drama.”
Michelle: “I'll be in my bunk.”

Speaking of miltary helmets, I heard a man swear they gave -37 to Intelligence when worn, due to its sheer weight...

Possible. Google says the helmet is about 3 pounds, possibly more if you have stuff attached like a camera or night goggles. My wife has 3-pound weights and I imagine wearing that on top of your head gets tiring in short order.


Karl: “Rise and shine people, those warlocks and witches ain't going to inquisit themselves!”

Michelle: “That wasn't some kind of secret code for help right? Let's see, 80 divided by the root of 25 times the natural log of two birthdays...”

Issac: “I was going to celebrate our first day with a trip to the academy library. Does anyone want to join me?”
Jake: “We'll spend enough time there before too long, I'm sure. I see no reason to hasten the inevitable. I'm also not seeing what's so celebratory about reading.”
Issac: “Enough time!? I'm not sure that's possible.”

Issac: “What? There're no courses on heretical science, or cryptobiology? Just how long are they planning on keeping us in the dark?”
Jake: “I want to be a soldier, not an academic... how the hell is literature & composition gonna help me kill demons...”

Heath: “Never seen anyone outrun a 7.62mm.”

Terra: "Are those tail feathers in your hat?"
Samson: "I really don't want to talk about it."
Lance: "Oh, I see, so you..."
Samson: "Not. One. Word. Lance."

Lance: "So, what the heck got Xaltaer anyway?"
Vick: "It's called a Noxinatcher."
Lance: "A Noxi-what-now?"
Vick: "Noxinatcher. It's name is an amalgam of the words 'noxious toxic snatcher'."
Samson: "Ah, I've heard of those things. Cowardly creatures, usually picking on things they deem weaker than themselves."
Vick: "They use simple run-and-grab tactics, usually going for stragglers or smaller members of the group, or anything conveniently within reach. They tend to flee if confronted, unless encountered in superior numbers."
Samson: "Not to mention that I've heard they are the foulest creatures with fur. They rarely bathe, and often use their overpowering stench to immobilize prey."
Lance: "So they run in, fart-bomb enemies, and run away?"
Samson: "You have a way with words Lance."

Terra: "Samson, how big are groups of those things?"
Samson: "It varies, why?"
Terra: "Look up."
*Group notices swarm of about 15 Noxinatchers*
Samson: "Oh."

Primal Noxinatcher: "Ook! Ook! Crash Party!"
Vick: "Did he just say what I think he said?"

Lance: "How the heck would you know what that smells like?"
Vick: "Hey, it only happened ONCE!"

Xaltaer: "Thank the gods, I can breath again!"

Possible. Google says the helmet is about 3 pounds, possibly more if you have stuff attached like a camera or night goggles. My wife has 3-pound weights and I imagine wearing that on top of your head gets tiring in short order.

Well, football helmets are a bit heavier than that, and I have to say, the weight wasn't a problem (at the time. probably why my neck's funny now, though). However, they let so little air in or out that it was stiflingly hot and humid in those, and that distraction certainly made it hard to think.
Anyway, back to the regular schedule of quotes:

Bruta: I'm not sure which I should be more surprised at: that what happened wasn't perverse, or that you would go to such great lengths to make it sound like it was.

Gene:.....Crap, you're right. If I want to show him s***'s gotten real, I'm gonna have to do a 180. Well, more of a pi over two. Does he have any family with ears, fingers, and tongues that don't live with him?

Yep. Lance is the little guy (halfling) with the big mouth that everyone loves to tell off. He enjoys that routine as much as he enjoys shoving everything he steals into his Haversack Pants.

I googled that word and got this (https://www.ocado.com/productImages/102/10263011_0_640x640.jpg?identifier=35c517a8f544f88c f55c8f94be6430fe).


Corey: Can I just say this: it is really, really weird flirting with yourself.
Hawthorn: I do believe they make a pill for that.

At the beginning, I made two characters. They could've been lovers, but I figured it was pointless to flirt with myself, so I downplayed it to best friends (their relationship rather helped with their characterization, they were foils of each other). One day, another player's PC came along and become boyfriend to one of the characters. Then he flirted with my other character. Then all three PCs became part of a polyamorus relationship, turning all the way back to my two characters flirting with each other XD

Admittingly, I don't get the pill joke.

I'm a fan of the Monkey Island games, so there's a little bias here. ;)

If he hits it hard enough, he might splat the thing. :D


"Attack my meaty minions."

Mmm, meaty.


Beryl: “So this feels all wrong. Adventures arrive in town and... Prevent it from burning?”

Beryl: “All they have to do is reply with two dings...”
Perform: *Shave and a manecut, on bell!*
DM: “An unseen force smashes the bell flat and punts it across the room. The table then gets flipped over with fury, dishes tossed over and shattering against the floor. The adjacent table then flips, then the next. The line of disaster goes straight to the front door which is then kicked open by the last table, the dishes and utensils flying out into the muddy ground by the same invisible force... And then it goes quiet.”
Beryl: “...everypony's a critic..”
Spirit: “Ha Ha! Oh, this is fun. Completely unforeseen, unseen, and unpredictable. This reminds me of the bad old days.”
Frostbite: “Is everypony alright!?”
Ace: “No, I nearly wet myself over this!”

Beryl: “I've been laughing at that reaction for about a day now. I didn't know there was such a thing as comedic timing in forum posts, but wow. There is.”
Spirit: “I hear giggling at the ghosties has solved bigger problems than one grumpy table-flipper in this setting.”
Beryl: “It's just hilarious to imagine in a cartoonish way. Starting with a cheerful ding. Then a curious one after it got a reply. Then Spirit joins in. Then Beryl hits the bell fifteen times. Then the main hall explodes.”

Beryl: “Well that should be fun if the invisible thing hates mornings as much as Beryl does.”
DM: “Hates mornings and zebra expectations.”

From a playtest with a system I'm making, working with large bosses,

DM: As you pass through the wall of fog, you enter a large chamber filled with mighty columns. Sunlight streams from high windows, illuminating the room in magnificent brilliance. As you take in your surroundings, you notice a massive being sanding at the far end of the chamber. Sunlight gleams off his golden armor, stylized in the form of a girthy man standing thrice as tall as any of you. By his side is a mighty hammer, almost a match to him in terms of size.
As you watch, another figure, smaller than the first, appears on the balcony above the first figure. He too is clad in elegant golden armor, this one stylized in the form of a noble lion. In his hand, he holds a mighty spear, long an thin with a set cross guard near it's tip.
In an instant, the spear wielder vaults over the balcony, landing at his companion's side with more grace than his armor would suggest, lighting crackling from his readied spear. At the same time, the larger figure hefts his hammer at the ready.
Ecxplorer: Uh...do I know anything about these guys?

Spirit: “Digo is on hold due to daughter's birthday, we reached Koldstone and found it abandoned, Spirit asked Trace to gather lamps and lamp oil (especially lamp oil), and then we tried communicating with the geist inhabiting the inn and found that it had a bit of a temper. Spirit plans to keep poking it for science, and wants to loot it once we know how it works.”

DM: “See, the trouble is that historically dust explosions are quite powerful and have always resulted in the containing building to cease existing. Flour isn't too difficult to make, so it's a troubling thing to figure out the balance between ‘yes you can make a dust explosive with flour’. The best way I can mitigate the rampant destruction of the countryside by errant bakers is ruling that creating an explosion with flour takes time to set up. So in a round-by-round combat you're not really going to get much of a weapon out of it. If you got a day... well if a PC party has a day they can blow up a building in many ways, so why stop flour?”

Flour as well...basically any powdered flammable. My Dad was the regional supervisor for OSHA, and growing up, we got to hear about all of the explosions in flour mills because some numb-nuts decided he couldn't wait for a smoke break.

Warlock: Of freaking course.

DM: *Sigh* The warlock's eldritch blast hits the ranger's right hand, blasting it clean off. The sword the hand was in misses two of the zombies and ends up hitting the knocked out fighter causing him to start bleeding out again.

DM: Oh, your character stabilizes on a 10 or higher, not anything higher than 10. You're still alive.
Fighter: Too late. *tears character sheet in half*

Warlock: Phew, we cleared out the zombies in this room. The ranger and the fighter are dead, the monk can hardly move, and we've just had to re-kill the fighter. Let's make sure the ranger doesn't also get up again.

Warlock: Yes, but at least I would've had a higher chance of surviving.

That... is, honestly, I'm not sure what. It's both amusing and disturbing at the same time.


Admittingly, I don't get the pill joke.

It was a failed attempt at setting up a running gag. Hawthorne's player was attempting to turn "I do believe they make a pill for that." into his catchphrase/default prescription for everything. It worked about as well as it sounds. I don't expect Hawthorne to surface again.

I think there as also the implication that Corey was mentally unbalanced; I wouldn't rule that particular diagnosis out just yet.

And yeah, playing two PCs with a romantic interest in each other gets downright awkward in a hurry. Can't imagine a threesome.

Corey: Hey, Lisa! The new legs look pretty sweet! And... there's no way I can finish this comment without digging myself in deeper is there?

GM: Minus the Canadian part.
Corey: I'm a random nothing wearing someone else's face?
---

Lisa: Did you or did you not do the furry--
Corey: NO!
Lisa: --in your past life as Ray?
Corey: ... Maybe? I'm not too clear on that one.
---

Corey: Do you think she'd buy it if I claimed to be on a ten-year bender?
---

Corey: Stop acting like this is my fault!
Lisa: If you're supposed to be Ray, then one could argue that yes, it is your fault.
Corey: I am, but I'm not, and... I really don't know, okay?!
---

Corey: You blew off my funeral?
Lisa: Well, it's not like you're really dead. Besides, the lab boys were unable to reconstitute you back into your human form. And I'll be danged if I was going to sit there for an hour mourning a horse.

Not most of the time. He just happened to be a horse at the time of his death.

Ray/Corey and Lisa are inter-dimensional, time-traveling insurance agent 'adjusters'. Their job is to go back-in-time across various dimensions and fix it so that the Addleton Intergalactic Insurance Agency never has to pay out an insurance claim. They do this by altering history so that the claim is never made or changing the present so that the damage is undone. The AIIA is the reason why TV/Movie/Comic Book characters come back from the dead all the time. They have insurance policies with the AIIA; so the AIIA keeps arranging the contrived events that bring them back from the grave.

At the time of Ray's death, he and Lisa had been dispatched to the MLP:FIM universe to prevent Shining Armor's death. In order to blend in, Ray and Lisa were 'rebooted' into ponies (Lisa was not happy about that, BTW, because it removed all of her lethal combat skills). Ray died as a pony and they were unable to 'un-reboot' him before his burial.

They did, as per the terms of his contract, revive Ray as a clone... Ray just forgot to back up his brain any time in the past ten years, so the clone, Corey, has no idea what's going on most of the time (except, y'know, when the OoC knowledge is convenient). Or whether he and Holly were actually a couple.

And, yes, Lisa did take out the Iron Monger in one shot.


Which leads me to the ultimate quote:

Ray: Wait, wait, wait. Let me get this straight. We're the reason that the Joker's immortal?
R: Of course. He's one of our best customers.
Ray: Holy-- We're the bad guys!

Me, as GM: Okay. *gives description*
Elodan: *peers down hole and sees a large body of water from rain that has poured through over the years* Hmm, that looks a long way down. Probably not the best idea to go down there just yet.
Elodan (OOC): Do we need to break out the tiles to map this out? (Referring to the dry erase map tiles I use)
Me: No, not unless you do something stupid.
Random: (tiefling named Random Wronghand) (OOC) I jump down into the hole and the water below.
Me: *breaks out tiles to map out the encounter with the thing in the water amidst gales of laughter* That....would be the stupid thing I was referring to.

Theris: Well, we could return the Viscomte's money, with a note saying "Deal's off, signed Theris." I'm group leader now, in this scenario.
Baldar: Baldar would leave the group immediately.

Baldar: Baldar would actually sign up to work to work for the Viscomte as an assassin. Just for this one job.

"Florian! FLORIAN! We had that talk, no beer in my house!"

I never had this rule, but my local group was pretty dry anyway. There was the occasion that I'd get my hands on some Rum & Coke, which leads to me getting a little funny and then making some of the strangest mistakes when I DM. One of my favorites was the time I had the party fighting a dog but was too drunk to realize that I accidentally pulled out the Terrasque stats. So I was fudging dice rolls all over trying not to kill the party, but not realizing WHY this dog was such an unholy terror against the party. XD


As a long-time dwarf, the correct response for the fighter is "It''l be a lot easier to reach when I chop your legs off!"

That is very much a Dwarf thing to say.



GM: So.. this isn't about to turn into a campaign where you dodge the assassins sent after you by the Viscomte while dragging around a blissed-out Dwarf?

Is the Dwarf necessary? And if so, does the party have a wheelbarrow?

Beryl: “I would have run with it.”
Spirit: “There's another way to run it?”
Beryl: “You use that patch and a very confused NPC pony appears.”
NPC: “Where am I? Who are you? How long was I in there?!”

DM: “Well if your story is to just tell the honest truth, they should collaborate. If you're planning on twisting the truth... well might want to compare notes.”
Beryl: “Well, it's not so much twisting as it's selectively choosing what part of the truth the common pony needs to hear. We're not lying, we just keep secrets. Paladins can do that.”

Heretical context please!

DigoDragon

Heretical context please!

I actually had to google this.
The party was discussing how much food Beryl could make in X hours, given the meager crafting system of 5e and my wild guess as to how much in raw ingredients are needed to succeed. The discussion focused on the fact that 'by the book', crafting food was a lot slower than the real life counterpart:

Beryl: "Beryl is currently carrying ingredients to make 20GP worth of boring old bread. If this is a famine situation, she's turning that bag upside down, commandeering a kitchen, and making it all."
Spirit: "It would take 4 days to cook enough bread. That's... really not time efficient."
Beryl: "Huh? Where are you getting that from? As far as I know the rules are something like 10GP of materials turns into 20GP of stuff, and since it took about two hours to make 2 GP of cookies, and making travel bread can be done in an hour's short rest, I can't see this be more than 20 hours if Beryl solos the baking encounter. Especially if she can use the inn's kitchen or similar for it. I could honestly see her just bake until she either runs out or collapses from exhaustion. That's if it's a famine situation."
Spirit: "You can turn 2.5gp worth of raw materials into 5gp of finished product over the course of one working day. Covered under downtime crafting, I believe. Digo allowed for smaller times to correspond with smaller doses; you can turn 3 silver's worth of ingredients into 6 silver's worth of pastry over the course of an hour, or make 2 silver's worth of cookies in 20 minutes. How long is a working day? If it's 8-ish hours and Beryl can find three helpers, then they can go through it all by dawn."
Beryl: "My point being, though, that if food is what's needed, Beryl can and will stay up baking bread until fatigue rules says she cannot anymore. This is the kind of scenario Paladin Bakers were meant for.

Edit: In general D&D crafting systems have always been weirdly slow and I generally speed things up in non-magical cases.

Spirit: “Any mage with half a talent can make plates dance and sing with time and money, but to be able to provide such a banquet and coordinated song and dance number to the poor at an affordable cost? That is the real art (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=afzmwAKUppU&feature=youtu.be&t=55s).”

Spirit: “Wat. I don't even. Spirit was right about something? Not just one thing, but two things? I do not comprehend how to respond to this.”
DM: “One thing you were right on, the other I simply stole the idea because it was interesting to play with. I'll leave it to you to figure out which is which.”

DM: “Turns out I incorrectly spoke of Ace's age. I just pulled up his stat sheet to make some adjustments this morning, and it has 15 listed as his age, not 17.”
Frostbite: “Well now you've just gone and ruined everything.”
Crossguard: “GAAAAAASP! Ace is Doctor Whooves!”

DM: “Meanwhile Midnight is dreaming of Rita sitting on his lap, with a table spread full of food Rita cooked for him, and she whispers, ‘Bless me like one of your heretic mares.’”

Beryl: “Did anyone else notice where they told Beryl to go? The Dusk Temple in Arendale. So... the light is the night?”

Neigh? Is that anything like supersizing?


Not sure what you mean by supersizing, but what happened was the party was escaping monsters on horseback. The DM decided this was a skill challenge, and since they use house-ruled skill challenges, every party member had to do something. When it got around to the warlord,he realized that he had no relevant skills at all, so he tried convincing the DM that it would be possible for him get the horses to run faster by nicely persuading them, using Diplomacy.

Gotta love it when players aren't in the room.

DM: As [Vick] rounds the corner, you notice a bald man with a large shield and spear looking at something off a nearby ledge.
Vick: I approach and say: "Hello? Something the matter?"
'Trustworthy' NPC: "Oh, hello! Why, was just puzzling about how to get down off this ledge. I mean, I can't get those wonderful treasure down there if I have no way down, can I?"
Vick: "Treasure? Where?"
NPC: "Why, right down there! See?"
Vick: I take a peek.
DM: As you look over the ledge, you are sent flying by a swift kick in the rear.
NPC: *Laughter* "Nothing personal! But the real treasure are the trinkets I'll be selling off your corpse! Take your time starving!"
Xaltaer: *Comes back into room* What'd I miss?
DM: Well, Vick is missing. You want to go look for him?
Xaltaer: Look for our healer? Yes.
DM: *Describes 'Trustworthy NPC'*
Xaltaer: "Hey there! I don't suppose you've seen my friend?"
NPC: "Maybe. I think may have fallen off that ledge there. Is that him?"
Xaltaer: I look over the ledge. "Vick, you down there?"
Vick: "Watch out behind you!
DM: As you hear your friend's warning, you are sent over the edge by a swift kick in the rear.
Samson: *Returns* Anything happening?
DM: Vick and Xaltaer are missing.
Samson: I go look for them. [gets kicked off the ledge]
Lance: *Returns* So, anything new?
DM: You're missing your casters and bard.

Cherub: (a mouse) “Squeak?”

Beryl: “Spirit! You broke the cook! Don't do that.”

DM: “Note to self—change the oil in Apparatus of Kwalish”

DM: “I guess you could do that.”
Beryl’s Inner Child: “Yay! I have a mechanic now!”
Beryl: “Should I worry that my character's inner child is beginning to reply for me in the OOC thread?”
DM: “Only if it starts writing replies without need for your physical body to type them.”

Spirit: “I get the feeling that this is soon going to be known as the 'weird pet party'. Spirit with his pet giant spider, Ace with his pet undead griffon claw, Crossguard with (presumably) a sentient bear, Beryl with her pet filly-possessing-a-panther, Frostbite and his magic field mouse...

Lisa: Pffft. We've got this.
GM: --in each tentacle.
Lisa: ... On second thought, Ray can have this one.
Ray: Wha-?
Lisa: You! Meatshield! Machine-gun! Chop-Chop!

Ray: Sorry about killing your brother, and all, 3G. You're not mad at us are you?
3G: No, not at all. I'm too busy leaving town to be angry.
Lisa: That's a rather... strange reaction to a loved one's death.
3G: Two-Shoes was an enforcer in the mob. He was just gunned down on my doorstep. I doubt anyone will care about the subtle nuance of who actually pulled the trigger
Ray: Your brother was a mobster?
3G: You didn't wonder why he was called 'Two-Shoes'?
---

Ray: Since when do you turn down a chance to kill something?
Lisa: Since I'm not getting paid for it.
---

Lisa: Picture the scariest thing imaginable, and I can promise you that this will be so much worse.
3G: Realizing that you've run out of butter right in the middle of making a grilled cheese sandwich.
Ray: I was going to say 'the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man', but 3G has me beat all hollow.

Lisa: It's the Thing! We're up against the THING!
Ray: What? Like Reed Richards, Doctor Doom and the Silver Surfer?
Lisa: No. Like John Carpenter, Kurt Russel and John Campbell!
Ray: .... If I were wearing pants, I would need new ones right about... now.
---

3G: I do not understand, what is this 'thing' you are talking about?
Lisa: A really nasty monster who needs killing.
Ray: So how do you kill the Thing?
Lisa: First you kill it, then you kill it with fire, and then you nuke it from orbit just to be sure.
---

Ray: It's not like we can just pop over to the military instillation next door and ask for a nuke. They're rather stingy with those things.
3G: Besides, possessing the nuclear missile is not enough. The nuke must still be armed, aimed and fired to be effective.
Lisa: *slow, smug smirk*
Ray: You actually have a contingency plan to get a nuke. What is wrong with you woman?
3G: I thought that human males considered foresight to be a desirable trait. Are not you always to be prepared?
---

Ray: So we're going to paradox a paradox to commit a murder to prevent a genocide. I love this job!
---

Lisa: *cornered by the Thing* Well, at least this can't get any worse.
The Thing: *turns black and grows a mouth* We are VENOM!
Lisa: Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh, snap me sideways...

DM: Okay, so Vena, you see this vine beelining towards Aimon, and before you can react, it tears his arm off and throws it into the pool with the donkey, which is slowly sinking... Aimon, you fall to the ground, unconscious but in game terms you're stable. Don't ask.

Come to think of it, that shieldmaiden doesn't wear a shield either... just that any wounds made on her appear on the attacker instead. Which is why she wears skimpy clothing - it's advantagous to her.

Spirit: “Ace, I'm fairly sure that I'm the only one here who died as a child.”

Cherub (Frostbite’s mouse familiar): “Soo... we're doing what? Shouldn't Midnight do it? He's wearing a can. By comparison we're squishy cheese.”
Frostbite: “Spirit wants me to put on a disguise and pretend to join the Brotherhood. It's a plan that probably won't work and will result in us having to kill whatever vampire decides to show up to this meeting.”
Spirit: “When you put it that way, it sounds like a terrible plan that's horribly unlikely to work. Which... it might be.”

Beryl: Also, if we're going by the recipe metaphor... I do notice that there's parts for most of a pony, plus a horn, plus a wing. Undead Alicorn?”

I think this one might need a little heretical context. I had a sudden, unexpected, unrecoverable hard drive failure. You know, the best kind. They could not, in fact, clone it. And I... didn't care, because I had a recent backup, so a weekend later and it was 90% restored to how it was, and the rest was just installing games and applications when I needed them again.

Take regular backups, everyone. You sleep better when your hard drive dies if you have. ...in fact, if it died right now, as you're reading this, how much did you just lose? How much of that can't be replaced? Is that okay with you? If not... do something!

Frostbite: “Spirit sent a message off to the first creature that could be found that had no breath, right? So most likely a vampire, but not guaranteed to be one. Just a thought.”
Spirit: “First pony that could breathe but had no breath, so yeah. Either we discover a fun new third party, or we get Brotherhood. Either way, not seeing a loss.”
Frostbite: “Vampire probably won't come alone. I know I wouldn't (and indeed won't).”
Spirit: “Granted, but, well... they're kinda chumps.”
White Text: [#FamousLastWords]
Frostbite: “Frost is not going to be comfortable with this and only volunteered because he is kinda desperate.”
Spirit: “Aye. This was intended as a bit of a confidence booster for him to make future social interaction easier. Public speaking is less intimidating when you've successfully cowed a vampire in social combat, right?”

Ray: Speedy thing goes in; speedy thing comes out. It's not like this is rocket science.
3G: Actually, when one considers that we are attempting to slingshot a nuclear missile across multiple dimensions at the proper angle and velocity to intercept one single meteor before it deposits the Thing upon my homeworld... one could say that, yes, this is rocket science.

Ray: If everybody had an ocean-- Across the U.S.A.-- Then everybody'd be surfing-- Like California!!
Lisa: Stop hanging ten off the nuke!

I mean c'mon! You need to ride it like a bucking bronco! Bonus points if you get the reference.

It didn't buck that much though. I guess there wasn't much wind that day.


P4: Ha! She strikes them in the groin! :smallcool:
P2: The groin...of a swarm...of spiders...mechanical spiders...? :smalleek:
P4: Yup! :smallbiggrin:
P2: ...And leaves nothing behind but a pile of nuts. :smallyuk:

P4: She smacks him with the whip! :smallamused:
P2: ...And he dies of shame. :smallredface:
P1: Did you get pantsed again? :smallconfused:
P2: Yes. :smallsigh:

P1: I like to think of the spiders like cats...
P2: They try to crawl into bed with you when you're trying to sleep, and sit on your face, and purr?
P1: They can't really purr. It's more of a buzzing sound.
P2: Not a proper purrbox then.

"Gentlemen you can't fight in here! This is the war room!"


Xaltaer: "AIR BEAR ASSAULT, GO!"

That is something fearful to behold.

If the warhead sits on top of a rocket engine then it automatically qualifies for rocket science. :smallbiggrin:

One- nope, not a proper purrbox.
Two- Eww. D:

"I think I know a way in. We just have to find a window and then the mage can stand on eachother's shoulders so he can reach it."

From the first season of my MonsterHearts campaign:

Fae:"dead things shouldn't be walking around"
Ghoul:"well I am, so **** you"

NPC:"How the hell did you survive that?"
Ghoul:"...um, Irish blood"
NPC:"well I guess that explains the paleness"
Ghoul:"Sure"

Sasquatch:"I will travel and meet the moon wizards"
GM:"there are no wizards on the moon"
Sasquatch:"why must you crush my dreams!"

"I did give you the leftovers of that cup."

"Yes, and the tea will dry up before I can do anything with it. I mean, what do you expect me to do with it? Legend Lore won't work, there's no magic to it seeing as it was used in an antimagic field, even if I knew Gentle Repose it doesn't work on tea. What am I supposed to do? Cast Summon Crime Lab?"

(As a side note, there's no divine casters in this party, so nobody can detect poison)

From my real-life 5E campaign.

Vincent, gearhead Sorcerer.

Faye, semi-noble elf(?) Wizard.

Benihime, vagrant Monk.

Faye's player: We have her dead babies. We could start throwing dead babies and hope she goes after them.
Vincent's player (Me): Pity Mage Hand has such a low weight allowance, we could make magic dead gator baby marionettes. -Some discussion later- Even so, I'm all for baby grenades.
Faye's player, after more discussion: Now then, do these dead babies float. That's what I want to find out.

Faye's player: Good. This will work swimmingly.
Vincent's player: WRONG ADVERB

Faye's player: You will be missed, Mini-Cube.

Vincent: "What is it with Faye and creating hellish vehicles of brimstone!?"

Benihime: "Look, idiot! The wheel is the baby gators!"

Ship furnace: "Mother, I am so cold. Mother, make me warm. Please mother, it is so cold."
