Funny RP moments

I got this idea from JesterPoet's Terrible games you've played in thread and seeing that I've been in alot more humorous situations than bad ones thought I'd jot them down for ye, sorry you.

Taken from a warhammer campain.(wasn't actually involved in this but the guy responsable is the main guy in some of the rest of these)

The party enterd a room upon the far side stood a large undead Ogre. The party snuck back out of the room and started to plan now heres the funny part, Ian piped in suddenly with this plan.

"I say that we starve it out!!"

As you can guess he's never lived it down.


In a Call of Cthullu game Ian was unable to get a deacant meal as the rest of the party kept stealing it when he left the group at meal times for some strange reason. Eventuallly he died of starvation about 6 weeks in game time what we couldn't get over was that he still left the group even after we stole his food for the third day staright.

In our latest game (DnD3ed) I'm playing a lvl 5 Dwarven Druid with a Badger compainion and in our first battle every roll for myself I failed and every roll for the Badger succeaded, even managed 2 crits with it and two kills the rest of the group have ow decided to call ourselves the company of the Rabed badger, and have decided to get it armourd up and with a varity of magic collers. I belive that they want me to play the druid as the companioon and concentrate upon the Badger.

There are many more but these came to mind staright away.

3rd Edition Gamma World campaign.

The party is camping near some trees that have blue leaves. As night falls the leaves begin to glow and the trees start to make a humming sound. The party grows concerned. After a bit of discussion they decide to pull up stakes and find a "safer" spot to camp. At this point I'm waiting, praying that one of my players asks the question I want. Finally my future ex-wife chimes in with, "I wonder why the trees were humming?" I grin and reply, "They didn't know the words."

Luckily I had a GM's screen to hide behind as the dice started flying in my direction...

First NC Gameday, a d20 modern game run by Henry. A figure lunges out from behind a tree. Somebody's character packs two rounds of lead into it and then yells out, "Philadelphia police! Stop or we shoot!"

Luckily it was just a zombie.

I was playing in an all dwarf campaign. Our scout (read fighter not wearing plate) had been getting increasingly annoyed by my character and another player's character's running in-game arguement over how far we could toss a halfing. You know, the usual strength vs technique arguement. We had just reached an omnimous door, and our scout pressed his ear to the door to listen for noise. We continued our arguement. This pushed our scout over the edge. The player stood up from the table, knocking over his chair, rounded on us, and in his best dwarven accent screamed, "WILL YER SHUDDAP!!! I'M TRYING TO LISTEN!!!" Needless to say, we didn't get surprise.

I still have to wipe away tears when I think about it

Heh. Miami Blues, a movie with Alec Baldwin.

Someone robs the cashier at the cafe he's eating at, or something. He pulls out his gun and fires; the crook collapses, clutching his leg.

"Police! Freeze or I'll shoot!"
"You already shot me!"
"I fired a warning shot, and it hit you."

our party was having breakfast in an inn. My fighter decided he wanted a flask of whiskey.

I wasn't actually involved in this session, but....

Based in the Rifts world, the group was a mercenary squad, they were on the run from the Coalition and were hiding in a safe house. The one character was a glitter boy pilot (a glitter boy is a rather large suit of power armor with a MASSIVE railgun that fires thousands of tiny metal rings at a rather impressive velocity) and she had her glitter boy hidden in the safe house. The house was raided by the police. Two cops come running in the door. To find themselves facing the barrel of the glitter boys Boom gun. Two cops go flying through the wall next to the door. At least, what was left of them.

Another session, a Werewolf game, I walked into an area and looked around to see what was there. As it was a fairly comprehensive looking around, I rolled. And botched. (Botch == Critical Failure). So basically I walked into the clearing, shut my eyes, and couldn't figure out why I couldn't see anything...

Yet another session...the old Star Wars game, I was a smuggler, the other two PCs were bounty hunters out for my head (not working together). The one finally caught me, but at the same time, the other found him and decided he wanted to collect the bounty. They began taking pieces out of each other, and in the mayhem, I managed to escape. As I'm flying away in my ship, I see a nice chunk of city scape enveloped in a ball of flame, when of the hunters decided to set a thermal detonator on contact and throw it at the other hunter, who was about 10 feet away.

Bunch of others...but thats all I can think of right now.

We were playing a D&D game that my friend had pregenned characters for us. He made a fighter/cleric for me...think it was Fighter3Cleric5. So he made him so he was very focused on his battle axe, feats all spent on it, etc. I played the guy as a very devout warrior more than a cleric.

Anyway, in the first combat I'm fighting this undead wasp kinda thing that had entered the hole in the side of a 1000ft high ship (don't ask) and I swung at him. Rolled a 1. He rolls and my magic axe (the focus of my life other than my god) goes flying from my hands, past the wasp thingy and thru the hole in the ship towards the water.

My response was the only one I could think that he would have. "NOOOOOOoooooooo!!!!!!" Followed by him diving off the ship after his axe. He caught it shortly before falling after casting protection from elements (was gonna land in water after all) and Aid on himself and managed to survive the fall. He was then met by his group in a lifeboat. Not much else happened that adventure heh.



Another good one was at a small con in Cincy OH back in 95. Our vampires had been bricking the pedals of cars and using them to destroy White Castle's (we hated that food chain) and toward the end of the session we were being chased in cars by cops thru Northgate Mall. We had one of the con guys (dressed as a Klingon) sitting at our table cuz he was bored and enjoyed Vampire. I jumped my car out of the mall and headed past the new cops that had formed up outside and shot it into a steakhouse after I rolled out. The Klingon guy starts freaking out on us asking if I know what I've just done. I tell him I don't and he says that he used to work at said steakhouse and the gas mains for the area are directly below the place, feed into the mall and also go across the street to several other places.

In the ensuing explosion, we took our map and put a big oval around the road leading up to the mall, the mal itself and the surrounding neighborhoods. Mass destruction anywhere inside the circle and we were lucky to have gotten to some semblance of cover. Failed my Rotschrek(sp?) check, but I DID manage to make my Humanity check and didn't lose a point of Humanity from it all.

Our group was pretty bizarre like that.
