    A Sore Thumb: Ways for a Chinese girl to stand out?

    Give her kalidescopic eyes - the colors shimmer and change at a moment's notice. And call her Liu Xie. :lol:

    Sharn: Beneath The Towers IC

    "Okay, odds are we'll be safe if we take the goblins back to the dwarves. I can't guarantee it, though. Keep yourselves ready." If everybody else agrees, Liu will lead the goblin prisoners back to the dwarven chambers. "Does anybody out here speak Goblin?"

    Sharn: Beneath The Towers IC

    Liu Xie, Human Druid This is spiralling out of control Liu thinks. Take a prisoner, I don't trust anybody right now... Really good one, Liu. Liu motions for Wan-Tan to hold himself, then focuses upon the Green, and begs its knowledge... OOC: Liu casts Omen of Peril, with the intent of...

    Sagiro's Story Hour Returns (new thread started on 5/18/08)

    I had a GM like that in Torg, once. Also, I kept reading the conversation between Dranko and his grappler, and wondering if somebody was going to sneak in a "Dranko is dead." Guess not. :D

    Sharn: Beneath The Towers IC

    Liu Xie, Human Druid "Quickly, help me bind their wounds," Liu says, as she moves to staunch the bleeding on the goblin she helped to strike down. Before anybody can question her motives, she says "Look at it from their point of view - somebody they can't see throws a flash bomb in their face...

    Sharn: Beneath The Towers IC

    Liu Xie and Kip push past Fixer, up to the square to the northeast of the yellow goblin, hopefully catching him flat-footed. She strikes out with her scimitar, as Kip harries the goblin's legs... Scimitar attack: 1d20+3=12+3=15 Scimitar damage: 1d6+1=4+1=5 Kip's attack: 1d20+3=1+3=4 <-...

    The Liberation of Tenh (updated April 24)

    That's gotta be it. We just watched Goodfellas last weekend, and that rings a bell.

    Challenging PCs with One Encounter Per Day...

    Don't forget the value of "hit and run" encounters - snipers take a single volley, then fade into the forest, wait 20 minutes to an hour, then strike again. And again. And again. A properly-run, stealth-focused (say, a band of Kobolds with rogue or ranger levels, and maybe a druid?) can...

    The Liberation of Tenh (updated April 24)

    The weird thing is, I could have sworn I heard or saw something similar to Lucius's "dance" in some film or book... Can anybody help me out, or am I thinking of "Saving Private Ryan" and the German with the knife?

    Sharn: Beneath The Towers OOC [FULL]

    No probs, just as long as you don't dissapear on us entirely. :D (By the way, I have to point out something horribly ironic that happened in another game I was in called 'up from the dead'. Point was that we all played characters who were in other PBP games that had gone limbo on us. The game...

    "It's a joke name, sir."

    I pronounce it Leeoo-Shee, because of the inherent pun. I know that 'X' in Chinese is more of a cross between 'x' and 'sh'. I don't know much more about Chinese than that. Now, if you start me on Japanese, I'm all over that...

    "It's a joke name, sir."

    I'm running a female human druid named Liu Xie, who has kaledascope eyes - oddly enough, the character started off during development as a male with kaledascope eyes, WITH the name Liu Xie, but when I noticed the pun I'd made inadvertantly, I pretty much instantly switched over to female. GM...

    Sharn: Beneath The Towers IC

    Liu Xie, Human Druid On the way over to the guild, Liu says "That is what we call a tease. You and I could probably be sold into slavery for less than those bracers..."

    Boardgames: Diplomacy!

    I'll agree with that - Italy and I (Turkey) allied pretty early on, which is a VERY unusual alliance - usually the two of us end up fighting like cats 'n dogs. This allowed us to dissect Austria, allowed me to grow into pushing a very belligerent Russia up and out of the game, and if I hadn't...

    Boardgames: Diplomacy!

    Wanted to add my thanks as well - I had a blast, and learned a couple things. It's my second game, although the first one I actually "finished" - the first one is still ongoing, and will probably end with a six-way stalemate. :D My one regret is stabbing Italy two turns too early due to a...
