    Necromancer/White Wolf hacked

    How about "skidmarks on the Underoos of society"? However like you, I can think of some more creative metaphors (well mostly) too.

    INFINITE: Epic Modern

    But then I'd have to read comic books by the truckload, spend hours in front of a tv watching cheesy monster movies involving gigantic arthropods (even Night of the Lepus :heh: ) or dudes in rubber monster suits trashing cities and maybe even playing monster themed video games for weeks on...

    INFINITE: Epic Modern

    That's easy. One Piece d20. But with a Kaiju Kombat d20, there could be a merry lil adventure - "Kaijus Save Santa" or the intro adventure "The Little Kaiju That Could".

    INFINITE: Epic Modern

    America's Next Top Model d20? Ooo! Ooo! Kaiju Kombat d20?

    other gods of mischief

    I've always been partial to Chuck Jones. :D Hermes is another while Raven is a kindred spirit to the non Acme using trickster. Not quite gods, the tanuki like to play pranks in Japanese mythology and ditto for the tengu.

    Worst series ending concepts

    Ditto on the Farscape remarks. Several threads were too quickly tied up (return of Jool and Jothee, "Sputnik" not quite dying, the Human / Sebecean connection and their relationship to the Eidelons) for my tastes. Married... With Children kinda fizzled out and a couple of cast members didn't...

    Videogames that you'd like to see made into movies.

    Nah. WWE Smackdown! 2: Know Your Role would be great tho I'm rather partial to games like Pong, Pitfall, River Raid, Centipede and other Atari classics. On a slightly more serious note, what about Darkwatch or an actual Deadlands movie? Might have all sorts of Westerns icons like Clint Eastwood...

    No Harry Potter RPG?

    Oh that's easy. The older you get, the better things used to be. BTW, its plagarism if its from 1 source. Multiple sources becomes research. :p

    Circle of Masters [a pitch for a Blood and Fists campaign]

    Jimmy Kam-po Yeung (played by Sammo Hung) A student of the same opera house that Jackie Chan studied at, Jimmy had a hard time growing up but nonetheless has a heart (and appetite) as big as him. The day job is a social worker for especially troubled kids, even going so far as to take them in...

    Why Are Warrior Women Never Ugly?

    Or Samus Aran from the end of the first Metroid? Beat the game and she took off her armor. She had the body of a Venus. Lord, imagine my surprise - dude looks like a lady!

    d20 Modern vs. Grim Tales: which is better?

    Yeah, I am quite skilled at Craft: Mess tho I consider it more like giving into entropy. :D While both are quite good, it just seems like GT is more of a favored child than d20M and it shows. However GT wouldn't exist if not for Modern. By the same token, if you didn't like Modern's classes...

    d20 Eighties

    Had to invoke a little thread necromancy here after watching it on Cartoon Network. I will never betray my goon dock friends We will stick together until the whole world ends Through heaven and hell, and nuclear war Good pals like us, will stick like tar In the city, or the country, or the...

    So what do demons do all day

    So what theme song plays in the background - "Takin' Care of Business" or "Workin' in a Coal Mine" ?

    So what do demons do all day

    Maybe they play full contact chess? Well its not like they'd hurt each other for long anyways. For a touch of the slightly bizarre, the head honcho has 32 of his underlings as the pieces. What about they get a case of cabin fever and believe themselves to be other things like: a demon acting...

    I'm sick of symmetries

    Hrm. Well fire with fire is a given. Air and electricity (visions of Louie the Lightning Bug running in my head) seem a better fit than with any other element. True that electricity comes with water (rain) but not always like ball lightning and St Elmo's Fire (kinda like faerie fire) so the...

    I'm sick of symmetries

    Argument for 'good' assassins - Chiun or more likely Remo Williams of the Glorious House of Sinanju. "Assassination is the highest form of public service." Acid linked to earth - My guess: alchemy since it was once both science and religion. There was a belief that base elements could be...

    Mexican Stand-off: How To?

    Doh! Hypersmurf beat me to it. My idea was likewise a MacGuffin-ish idea. Going along with his smurfy idea, how about lowering the MDT to make it into a John Woo gunfight? Mooks go down easy while named characters (PCs and major bad guys) can take a few more hits. Handwave it as a side effect of...

    Godzilla vs. Garyx, Falzure and Tiamat

    So if you cut off his head, you can absorb his Quickening? :p The Big G is effectively immortal because he's got massive regeneration abilities, which was incorporated into some movies and his comic I think (G-cells). At the end of one of the reboots (SOS I think), his heart is all that's...

    WWE performer Eddie Guerrero dies

    Yes. There were several RAW vs Smackdown matches and virtually everyone had a black "EG" armband as well as a "Who's your papi?" shirt. For the most part, they stayed in character tho plotlines were suspended. Smackdown will be similar I'm sure and maybe even TNA Wrestling on Thursday will have...

    [Grim Tales] Using GT for sci-fi?

    Oooo. Might be a really good way to handle ships like Moya and Talyn too.
