Negative Energy? Ha! OUR undead are fuelled by FUNKITUDE!

[monty]

That guy and that other guy and that girl from Bulletproof Monk (gimme a break, I haven't seen it in a while) were definitely not square.

Someone should start compiling a list of funky monks.

[Skelengar]

pretty good, but too much effort to put into my already existing campaign

[Telonius]

Awesome! Though I think Drunken Master would kind of throw off the Funky requirement for Monks. Drunken Master seems like it would have to have a Funky alignment.

Undead are usually square, but liches are exceptions too. No way does Xykon have a Square alignment.

So, for OOTS...

There is no way Durkon's funky! Look at his reaction! O.K., maybe it's not his kind of relationship, but a funky guy wouldn't overreact that much.

And Nale is really funky. He impersonnated his twin!

[Telonius]

No way?

None at all?

Really? Not to mention that he had to be at least a bit Funky to get into your linked situation to begin with.

And I'm detecting a serious lack of funkitude in Nale ... here and here.

I was having that same though, well not about Bulletproof Monk specifically just about monks in general. There has to be somebody out there using his fists with a funky style. I know there are non-monk classes out there from additional sources, that might apply still it'd nice to see among the core classes. Perhaps funky monks could have some minor alternate feature to regular ones?

[Guyr Adamantine]

O.K., you beat me there, but I think he should be, at least, LGN.

And I'm detecting a serious lack of funkitude in Nale ... here and here.

I'll repeat it, he played the evil twin game! Nale is a perfect example of a dashing mastermind who sleep with a succubus*drools*.And it's common sense that a plan involving rocket skates is funky, but to use it is chaotic stupid, as Thog.

I completely agree with this, except for the "dashing mastermind" part. He has, so far, displayed no originality in his actions, as Vaarsuvius noted when he was trying to decide which twin to attack. That makes him considerably less funky, possibly enough to be neutral. Personally, I'd call him LEN with funky tendencies.

[VeisuItaTyhjyys]

I rescind any complaints about the alignment system as long as this is in place.

Scuse me, for my part, any guy with a goatee is funky!

[Alex12]

I'll also assume that the alignment chart is what is usual, though individuals and/or specific races within that may be different. For instance, Brass Dragons IIRC like to talk. A lot. Generally about fairly boring things. I think that that definitely qualifies them for Square. And I can think of a number of ways to make Funky Constructs.

No, no, you're confusing funky with evil (as explained here).

Those are guidelines, naturally. Every type is going to have examples of funk, unfunk, and neutrality. Dragons in general are fairly funky, was the main point. It's mainly there to make it easy to convert preexisting campaign material into this new system without a lot of effort.

Also, I would agree that Nale is fairly funky.

[LotharBot]

This is awesome stuff.

I may be misunderstanding, but "Blown Away" seems a bit weak for its place in "word of the day". Holy Word, Blasphemy, etc. have paralysis or confusion effects for 1d10 minutes at the same level.

Why not make the effect "Trippin' out" for 1d10 minutes? Roughly equivalent to confusion, but "babble incoherently" is replaced with "sing Puff the Magic Dragon", and "flee at top speed" with "disco away at top speed". And of course any time they attack, they scream about pink elephants or kidney thieves or something equally silly.

I believe someone asked for another Vampire/Zombie Dance off?

Holy ****! this is AWESOME in capital letters. Or I might say, Funky!

This sentence is so overused now, but this is my first time using it, for real.

You sir, win the internet. and oots' allignments are great. Of course, in my opinion durkon is not funky and nale is kinda neutral, but funkiness in in the eye of the beholder.

[The Extinguisher]

I am bringing this up at my next game.

This is awesome and anyone who doens't use it is not funky.

[DivineBriliance]

This is truly inspiration from the god of funk!
Im going to try using this in every campaign i join at least just the funky alignment.
I love this almost as much as a love Weighted Companion Cube, almost.

You said constructs are square? then you obviously never met my constructs.

[Lady Tialait]

This Alignment System tottaly fits one of my favorate (3 Years running) D&D games i've been running with my freinds. I mean...how funky is it to play tennis with a great wyrm blue dragon for three days?

[SoD]

A three day tennis game??? Please tell me that it was three days where they played a lot of tennis each day, rather than literally three days of tennis...

[Lady Tialait]

One Blue Dragon...Four Epic party memebers...three sessions of batting him back and forth...three days of tennis..= A highly embarissed BlueDragon.

[DracoDei]

Ok, that definitely IS funky... I though he was the opponent for ONE of you... not the ball for ALL of you...

[Lady Tialait]

Yeah was funny...here is the charitors and their levels..and alignments.

Li Peng Trikreen CNF Monk20/Warlock 3/ Reidan 5
Ivan Awfullich LGF Human Palidan 20/ Knight Templar 10/ Grey Guard 3
Enigma Necros NES Elf Cleric of Engima 20/Soulcrusher* 10/ Sorc 1/ Wilder 1
Ansen Spock NNN Elan Psion 5/Wizard 5/Cerebromancer 23

Freaken' Tennis Nuts too...bewear ye blue dragons..

[Thunderbuckets]

Umm...I thought monks couldn't be chaotic. Or funky.

On the other hand, he is a Thri-Kreen, which gives an awful lot of leeway for awesomeness.

Actually, they just can't advance further as a monk if they're non-lawful, but they don't lose any abilities they already had.

[IncarnumJunkie]

You want funkitude? I'LL show you funkitude!

Click HERE for funkitude!

[sciencepanda]

Hmm. Just one potential argument for allowing Funky Monks. The standard "Old Master" archetype characters tend to be pretty cool guys.

I fixed it for you. You needed specifics, and you have to capitalize monster names like that, or people will think you're using the word in a normal context!

And that would be square.
Now people are going to think I completely missed the point, I know it. If you're one of those people, it wasn't meant to be a correction, just some silly wordplay.

Chaos monks exist, and are almost certainly funky.
