Re: Anonymouswizard's Random Banter #227 and Free Cup of Tea
I heared there were multiple examples in this thread, including two pink-haired interesting attractive people. Although apparently one has been taken or something? No clue where to. Mexico?
I meant more that camping alone would probably be a good way to enjoy yourself while also being away from everything that could get you to hit on someone.
(Come to think of it, it really has been ages since I went camping. Ever since our family had a bit of a falling-out with the family that we always went with, back in, like... middle school.)
I might have like an actual date lined up for when plague times end. Nothing serious, but like coffee and nature date.

A diamond necklace played the pawn
Hand in hand some drummed along, oh
To a handsome man and baton (Bygone, bygone)
A blind class aristocracy

The pit and the pendulum drawn (Bygone, bygone)
Columnated ruins domino

Re: Anonymouswizard's Random Banter #227 and Free Cup of Tea
Wow, I blinked, and there is a new thread, and on page two.
Well, there was a convo about hair, and I am just going to say I am sporting a 13+ " pony tail from the base of my hair line.

Re: Anonymouswizard's Random Banter #227 and Free Cup of Tea
Again, would be concerned if she wasn't.
Enjoy! I really only like pineapple when it's on pizza. Too strong otherwise. I like to eat my food, I don't like it trying to eat me.
...there are more pink-haired people? Where? I'd like to meet them.
Oh sure, but that doesn't let me imply stuff.

Oh, pffffft. Fair enough, I guess.

I'd be pink haired, if it wasn't so expensive to maintain.

Re: Anonymouswizard's Random Banter #227 and Free Cup of Tea
Yeah, I get it done through my uni, and it's nearly 200 bucks after all the bleaching's involved, too. (Sure wish I had blonde hair so I could skip the step.) So, do my best to keep it fresh as long as possible... usually can stretch it reasonably out to about four-ish months, being diligent.
Also, you never manage to get the anime look down, unfortunately... I love the hairs of some of those girls, but, man, unrealistic hair standards.Last edited by DataNinja; 2020-05-19 at 06:40 PM.

My hair's black, curly, and I'm trying to grow it out. Don't want to color it because there's no easy way back from that.

Re: Anonymouswizard's Random Banter #227 and Free Cup of Tea
My reason was why I love being Chaotic Neutral. Well, there's no authority, rules stink, everything should be disorganized and randomness. Pure anarchy and disorder. A balance of good and neutral as long as it is chaotic. And that's my reason why I love being Chaotic Neutral.

Re: Anonymouswizard's Random Banter #227 and Free Cup of Tea
Because that's not how the game system describes Chaos. It seems like you're thinking about "chaos" in the dictionary definition sense, and not in the game mechanic sense.
Lawfullness is more rigid, traditional, needs of the many outweigh needs of the few. Chaos is more flexible, adaptable, focused on individual rights. Mr. Spock was Lawful, while Doctor McCoy was Chaotic.
"Disorganized" is a character's personality trait. Alignment is a shorthand description of a character's perceived morals. You can have a very organized Chaotic character and a very disorganized Lawful character, because organizational skills have no bearing on alignment.Cuthalion's art is the prettiest art of all the art.

Re: Anonymouswizard's Random Banter #227 and Free Cup of Tea
It is also worth repeating that D&D's attempt to try and fit the entire breadth and variety of the entirity of all individuals across the spectrum of all sapient/sentient creatures of that did, does, can or might exist into the nine conveniant pidgeon-holes was a futile endeavour (as evidenced by every single discussion on placing an alignment on a non-D&D character or person has ever shown). D&D's alignment is a prescriptive, not descriptive system that works better the less attention you actually pay to it.
(The fact that I personally actually DO fit into ones of those holes 99% of the time merely proves that a stopped clock is right twice a day.)
3.x's attempt to make it more mechanically import was well-meaning (and functional enough that even I have not been arsed to remove it from 3.Aotrs), but was, I suspect, more counter-productive in the long run and I think 4E (and 5E, I think?) stepping away from it was a sounder decision in hindsight.
(I mean, notice how the majority of other systems don't want or need it; off-hand, I can only think of Warhammer FRP (1st edition) that even had it. Rolemaster, at best, had some "Evil spell lists" for some professions and made some oblique references to it in RMCIII in the description of the sleuth profession and that was about it.)Last edited by Aotrs Commander; 2020-05-20 at 08:48 AM.

Re: Anonymouswizard's Random Banter #227 and Free Cup of Tea
Not to mention, they had to try and make it so every one of the nine alignments was equally valid, so a Chaotic Evil adventurer has to be just as able to function in society as a Lawful Good one...which really doesn't make a lot of sense if you think carefully about it.

Re: Anonymouswizard's Random Banter #227 and Free Cup of Tea
And the alignment system in WFRP1 is notorious among its players for being ditched within, in most cases, minutes of discovering its existence. If I remember rightly, it was a less "sophisticated" system than D&D (linear rather than biaxial) but it also added nothing to the game or, really, the setting.
Which in some ways is a shame, at least on the Law/Chaos axis. That was a period where the Law gods, the direct counterpart to the Chaos gods, were still openly kicking about. Throwing out the whole good/evil business and focussing on Law vs Chaos as the important cosmic forces could have been interesting. But they never really did much work on developing the forces of Law as their own thing, they fell into the background, and we just ended up with "Chaos = Evil"... and all too frequently, "Evil = Chaos" instead. Never mind.
I think alignment or some variation on it was generally more common in older generations of RPGs, though, back in the 70s and early 80s. And, of course, FATAL had it.Last edited by Aedilred; 2020-05-20 at 10:29 AM.
