[DnD] Let's Cast Magic Missile!

This concept of Superfly Johnson intrigues me. Tell me more.

I'd be down for this, though I haven't played D&D for fucking years. I've got the 4th edition books downloaded, though. When would you want to start? If we have a week or so, I can do my own characters. lvl 1 creation? If you need it sooner than that, sure. A Dwarf with a huge warhammer seems spiffy.

cheetos, mountain dew, virginity etc.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

It hit SUCK IT DOWN and I just burst out laughing. All right. Monday I'm going to write up a character. If you get enough people before then, just go Dwarf Fighter with a Hammer and a can-do attitude.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I'm sorry. You're overqualified for the position you've requested. We'd prefer to hire useless summer students for half your wage.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

And first to go? The dwarf with the Vin Diesel fascination.

"Dude, Chronicles of Riddick was wicked sweet." *goggles*

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Just a heads up, Pang. I'm reading me some D&D 4th edition stuff. Writing up a Dwarven Paladin, loyal to Kord (For Conan-like shouting purposes). I'll fire it off to you by tomorrow. As soon as I figure things out.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Also, if possible can I have some kind of lightning spell so I can recreate the last battle in Return of the Jedi as often as possible?

SIR VG?!

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Fucking christ. I can't unsee that.

Unfortunately I wasn't quite able to eliminate character sheets entirely. I tried my best but some classes just have way too many things going on to cram onto reference cards. I did manage to find character sheets which are only a single page, so between that and the cards you should have pretty much everything you need at a glance.

Brady: Argumentus of Hamfist (Sheet + 5 power cards)

knkwzrd: Motsognir the Subgenius (Sheet + 5 power cards)

Shin: Scary Bob (Sheet + 13 power cards)

Zephyrin: Fescue Totengeld (Sheet + 5 power cards)

Denicalis: Gabriel Sledgegammer (Sheet + 9 power cards)

(Deni, I put an extra point in your DEX; your points only added up to 21-point buy)

Take some time to look over these and get a vague handle on your abilities before we begin.

These sheets should be openable/editable in standard Adobe Reader; in the event anyone doesn't have a PDF reader I can provide the sheets in PNG.

Most of you have played at least once it seems but if you have any questions I'll gladly explain whatever.

Thanks, mate.

There is a note on my character sheet, Shin, and it says "Thinks Scary Bob and his masacara is sort of a poncey git."

Protip: Replace Scary Bob with Shin, and Mascara with "not funny comments" and you have my opinion of you.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

But +10 fashion sense. And he's still laughing at your eyeliner and HIM CDs.

Also, I was going to get mad, but Gaybrial Manrammer was funny.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

All I can think of, upon seeing Pang's new sig, is "I ROLL 20s!"



How ya doing, buddy?

I have the books, but I couldn't be bothered to GET the books. You see. But thanks for clarifying.

And Shin has fucked off to work, no doubt. Poncey bastard.

When you go to put batteries inside your digital camera, remember...

when Scary Bob needs to power his sunrods in the face of an overwhelming undead horde, he uses



P.S.

So... now there's a skeleton focused on one guy, lacking a weapon, and right infront of him is a Paladin, a Hamfist, and an emo mage.

Poor blighter. They're gonna tease the shit out of him in hell.

P.P.S.

All right, I'm off to bed. You nyuckas take it easy.

Well, some spells have a range of hit, and as for arrows... well, you could do what Murray the Talking Skull here did and crit. miss.

Brady, what's your AIM? That'll actually be helpful.

You guys can hit me on AIM at MotsPerdu or on MSN at kevinsmithite@hotmail.com

People play non halfling rogues? My bad. Apologies, bigger man.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

We should get a betting pool going over who dies first. (Pang can't take place.)

I'd put my money down on Argumentus. Death by breaking wall with face.

That being said, I can tell you who my first person to heal with Paladin's Judgment or Laying Hands is going to be: The bruiser who fights on the front lines with me.

Gabriel isn't very bright. He just likes fighting things and generally being a pompous Paladin dick.

Do you know of any resources I could use to further research classes and abilities without having to interupt you or anyone else? I'm rusty with much of this.

Is your FTP on? I can upload the 4th edition books.

I'll upload the Player's Handbook to Saxypunch; it didn't really occur to me that people would want to wrestle with the damned thing.

You don't really have to wrestle with the 4th edition. It's so streamlined compared to the other editions.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Yeah, it'd definitely dumbed down. But I still think it's more approachable than 2nd edition and I hear the same about 3rd.

One guy knew he was pretty strong, someone else knew that their dagger seemed to almost have a mind of its own and would guide his hand when he was fighting with it and we all had various potions that the shop keeper assured us would heal any ailment. Was pretty amusing all told.

Also, I'm hoping that Scary Bob's usefulness as a mage will ride out his more annoying character traits and keep him safe from the other party members. He doesn't mind using magic to open doors if Augmentus ever gets bored of being trap-fodder and I'm sure he'll realise the others aren't zombies he raised in a drunken stupor eventually. He might even develop the ability to understand dwarven accents at some point but I wouldn't hold your breath for that one.

Dwarves are an analogy for black people to you, aren't they Shin.


Edit:

Anyway, off to bed. See you gents in six hours or so.

How ya doing, buddy?

I was at the south door, but Pang had me placed at the north. So I played it as from the north. Either way I'd have done the same thing and stood pat at the door to take on any Goblins that came rushing through.
