There's the possible deus ex machina at the end of Mad Monkey vs the Dragon Claws adventure from Second Edition (First?). Download it from WotC's website and its near the bottom of page 50. It's only a temporary boost like a Power Rangers monster. Other than that, some sort of gigantic suit of...

Yeah, the Xena episodes stole scenes from Hong Kong flicks, namely The Bride With White Hair (Xena running the gauntlet to leave her henchmen) and I think Once Upon a Time in China II (the ladder fight she had with Callisto, also copied in The Muskateer) among others. Recent-y stuff like...

To crush my enemies, see them driven before me and hear the lamentations of their women! Barring that, to have fun. WRT CoC, I just don't find having my character die or worse go insane all that fun. But I'm also a bit jaded towards so called 'scary' movies.

Unfortunately you'd have to create it yourself but given d20 Modern / Future and all the extra 3rd Party goodies, it shouldn't be too difficult. Go with Westwood Studio's Command and Conquer stuff. You've got the techologically advanced Global Defense Initiative (with mech walkers in Tiberium...

Well.. one DM I have had the group kick the stuffings out of a group of bad guys for a FR version of Face/Off (no John Woo gunfights tho). It was funky to say the least to have my halfing in the body of a troll for instance. We also had to worry about the new body 'rejecting' our minds and once...

There's the various worlds of Michael Moorcock, namely his Elric stuff but also Hawkwind, von Bek and Corum among others. All are incarnations of the Eternal Champion. To a lesser extent might be Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser, especially one of their patrons who lives in a cave that opens into...

Probably going to add fuel to the fire but the Vietnam era planes were inferior WRT dogfighting like the F-4 Phantom - no guns, only missiles. Not that winning dogfights without guns was impossible but Snoopy probably had a better chance at shooting down the Red Baron. Just curious but where...

The closest it has to mecha are the ships that Spike, Faye and other characters fly. Faye's especially since it has 'gripper' arms. As for walking or transforming ones, nope. Face faults are very few if at all. However Spike does have some strange habits like his peculiar bowlegged walk (kinda...

How about "Hello. My name is Elan the Bard. You stole my Haley. Prepare to..." ? Nah, that'd be expected.

Mine would be bald, with scar over one eye and always petting a kitty but occasionally chewing on the pinky finger, especially after doing something bad. Oh, and they would later have clones, only 1/6 normal size. Throw me a frickin' bone here! I didn't mention anything about ill tempered sea...

My idea is (or would be) rather shamelessly stolen from a half seen episode of Jackie Chan Adventures. As best I remember, some of the elves are the Secret Service to "Big Red" and protect him as best they can from Daolon Wong (voiced by James Hong), who sought to steal Santa's immense good chi...

Yup, pineapple chunks.

One of my favorite OotS shorts was their encounter with a gelantinous cube. Elan - "I'm a pineapple chunk!" It might be more a niche critter to explain why dungeons are so "clean".

C'mon Elan! Perforate him! A lot! So what did Haley say? "Nale???" , "Elan???" or just "What???" ?

I know of someone that I'm reeeeeally tempted to suggest they have a boy and name him Garth, simply because the last name is Fader. But that would've been better over 30 years ago and if he ended up with asthma... Nevermind. I've mentioned a few 'joke' names like Moxy Crimefighter, Audio...

IIRC, one of the Penn n Teller guys gave his daughter the middlename of "Crimefighter" (first name "Moxy") so if she gets pulled over, she could say "We're on the same side officer. Crimefighter's my middle name." There's also the IMO cruel name "Audio Science" but Nicholas Cage named his son...

The movie FYEO was also a mixup of like 3 short stories - the revenge angle, the code breaker (also used in FRWL IIRC) and something else, the mob guy?. Yeah, I have fond memories of that one like the car chase after Bond's car alarm went off and the chase on skiis a bit earlier with what...

Yes, SMERSH is a fictional version supposedly based on the real SMERSH. I've heard / read somewhere (probably wikipedia) that so as not to risk the Cold War getting hotter, they changed Bond's nemesis to SPECTRE, since they wanted to be the third superpower. Virtually all of Bond's villains...

Nah, kinda like popcorn chicken or better Lay's chips (Can't eat just one).

Bit of a late comer but if its a zombie virus, why not let it mutate like Cap'n Trips from The Stand? That's what made it so dangerous in the novel. Well, that and the high fatality rate. It's more of a handwave as to why a cure disease doesn't work as well as it did before. Hey, its one reason...
