Catchphrases

I once played with a bard whose motto was "I am one with the opposite direction."
I played a paladin of St. Cuthbert that would constantly chant out anytime he successfully smited/smote evil "Hail Cuthbert! Hail the Cudgel!" He would also frequently demand everyone else take up the chant if he healed them

 

[Mallus]

For my current M&M 2ed. character, I'm going to use:

"Can you smell what Joseirus is refrying?"

Joseirus (hoe-si-rus) is the 14 year-old Egyptian God of Mexican Wrestlers (its a long and confusing story).

My namesake PC Mallus Lovesworn (currently appearing in the Chronicle of Burne, and Some Others of Lesser Importance story hour) used a curt and forceful "F**k this!" whenever he drew his katana. He really tried to use nonlethal attacks whenever possible, like sneak attacking with his trusty magic sap. Couldn't hit a thing. So every fight was the same: try to knock an opponent out, fail miserably, get cut up, then curse and try for old-fashioned murder.

 

[Kahuna Burger]

My NG mortalist cleric always introduces herself by saying "I'm Kirin, I'm here to help." My CN gladiator in the same world on the other hand, says "Double-trouble Sara, at my service."

 

[Eccles]

"Vincus smash puny <insert metasyntactic variable here> !"

I'm playing a barbarian, natch...

 

[Dolom]

"Where's your god now?" -- My Favored Soul character, Rosh, after dispensing divine justice on an infidel with his Bramble covered quarterstaff.

 

[Hand of Evil]

Rough on Rats - Warhamer game

Got to be tough, if you going to be dumb - Rogue character every time he checks for a trap.

 

[S. Baldrick]

I have had more than one PC in various games say the same thing when surrounded and hopelessly outnumbered: "Maybe we've got them demoralized."

 

[Presto2112]

I had a gnome fighter / rogue whom I played as an incorrigible optimist. Once when we were in the midst of a dungeoncrawl we were all on one side of a closed, locked door. From the other side of the door came a lot of shuffling and clomping sounds, indicating that (duh!) there was something on the other side. The party was trying to determine what might have been behind the door from the sounds, with all their worst nightmores being suggested. "What if it's a big pile of orcs? What if it's a room full of ghouls? Oh my god, what is it!!" This is when Rinzari, my gnome pops up, "well, maybe it's a baby unicorn!"

Rinzari was saddled with the catch phrase until the day he died at the hands, er, finger, of a death slaad.

 

[KB9JMQ]

My Hunter of the Dead frequently states "I'm too busy to die today" as he rushes into melee.

 

[HeapThaumaturgist]

Well, in our all-cleric party, my Cuthbertite usually signals the breakdown of communications with:

"Would you say you're a ... religious ... man?"

Or, when the Clr/Ftr/Pal gets mentally dominated: "Aha! Thus ever the wages of SIN!"
