Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

[trappedslider]

Yes, but no.

I’m thinking like a sandwich board message.

"Is your cleric running out of healing spells?, No problem...we can come and heal..for a price!"

 

[Dannyalcatraz]

“Ask about our specials!”

 

[Aeson]

"Look for us on Groupon."

Uber Heals?

 

[trappedslider]

"Hastur? Hastur? Is there a Hastur in the house...? Oh, bugger!"

I mean, this is basically House Jorasco in Eberron. Mercenary little halflings...

I just imagined someone playing a “healbot” PC like Dr. House…

“I require aid! Use your divine gifts to mend this sword-slash to my forearm!”

“Mmmmmm…nah. Too boring. Use a tourniquet. Anyone have something more interesting?”

“Ah. Ah. Ch’harr still suffers from the acid that giant beetle squirted on him.”

“He’s the one who ATE the poultice I said to apply directly to afflicted area.”

“But it smelled so GOOD!”

“I’m not wasting a spell because of YOUR mistake. You’ll have to wait until we find more glaiveroot daisies. NEXT!”

“But…”

“I said NEXT!”

“Uhhhh…Percival has a glowing growth on his temple and he’s begun speaking in unearthly languages?”

“THAT’S more like it! Let me see …”

It's always lycanthropy.

Why are there no werewolf vampires

I wasn't involved in this incident, but it happened back when I was in high school. The group were going through S3 - Expedition to the Barrier Peaks. It wasn't going well. As the last member of the party was about to go down he started screaming "Hastur haster HASTER!" in a sing-song voice. Yeah, Hastur showed up.

I like White Wolf's take on that...the separation from Gaia drives them mad.

There was a local convention where a lot of games were going on simultaneously in a large auditorium, at tables not far from one another. If you've ever been in such a place, you know there's a hum of conversations, usually not a cacophany because people aren't trying to shout down other tables, but all those concurrent conversations make quite the hubbub. And it rises and ebbs, as patterns in different conversations emerge.

At one point, a lot of tables suddenly quieted for no particular reason, except for one of the Call of Cthulhu tables, where you could just hear the tail end of a conversation a player was having with the GM. "... do you mean it's Hastur?"

There was a moment of dead silence. Then, suddenly, every GM at every table was pulling out and rolling dice. I heard the outcry from various tables, "But... we're not even playing Cthulhu! This is a Twilight 2000 game!" Didn't matter, GMs were having fun with the circumstances. I heard from various players later that, while it was totally unexpected, they had a bunch of fun.

Ah, we had good times at the conventions in the 90s!
