Copperheads: Betrayal and Strange Runes and Burning Dead, oh my (short update 02/12)

[Lela]

Way to force the player's hands. And Halgo did the right thing, I support it entirely--even if Thrash dies. It won't be so bad really, even if all the punk chicks he's undoubtibly seen do not bare him any tortured and depressed children, his hair will live on many years without him.

Does Cap always recomend exploring the lower levels first?

 

[arwink]

Capellan and Geoffrey are a lot more methodical than many of the gamers I've dealt with before, so such suggestions usually get attributed to their characters even if they didn't actually say it. I'm a terrible note keeper and more than willing to fudge events in the name of story, so none of this will be 100% accurate (But it'll be close, and people are more than willing to point out when I overstep my mark )

As we'll see at the end of the adventure, Geoffrey's player can take the methodical approach to extremes I hadn't even dreamed of

 

[Capellan]

Correction. I'm methodical. Geoffrey's player is anal. There's an important difference.

(Lest anyone is tempted to argue, I have just two words to add: exploratory surgery. You'll see what I mean.)

Halgo did do the right thing here, didn't he? Hmmm. Wonder how long that'll continue?

Only as long as it takes him to remember the Nymph-like thing. That's kinda a duh though. I assume you're refering to something else.

Lets just call it foreshadowing

Once we finished Of Sound Mind, all sorts of interesting things started happening.

Shall I offer some teasers? I think I shall

Some of the things on the near (or far) horizon:

- Halgo meets up with some...unusual contacts
- A new, improved Yip getting beaten up by bipedal dire-rats
- Negotiations with Angels
- Strange Silver Orbs and Gauntian Undead
- Blarth running with fear at the prospect of being called "Papa"
- Goblin Jesters
- Half-orc Fire Cults
- Dwarven Football games

*claps*

oi oi!! I love teasers!!

 

[Yip]

OK, I have succumbed.

I can't recall the passwords for either of my former EnWorld entities, so I figured I'd run with Yip... Yips.

I imagine it could be hard running with too many Yips. They'd get under foot quite easily.

Let me conjur an image for you. Picture a Yip, dressed in a little red pleated skirt which hangs midway down his thighs. He's also got on a nice tight white top, tied up to expose the midriff (trim and taught).

He has two pom poms, one clutched in each paw.

He is Thrash's cheer squad. Alas, none of the other Yip's would join him.

I can hear the "Go Thrash, Go Thrash" in that high pitched yap as I type this. "Give us a T"

Throw in a high leg kick or two and you've got the whole sorry picture.

Anyway... I think I've said enough.

I don't think anything could scare me more than that.

I don't know how I could have been so very, very wrong. . .

 

[Khynal]

Alas, none of the other Yip's would join him.

I know I shouldn't encourage him, but ...

Do you realise Yip doesn't need other Yips to form a cheer squad now? Thanks to the appearance of a character who can summon astral constructs?

 

[Yip]

OK, now I've got an image of three identical Yip's standing side by side looking at the ground with very expressionless faces.

As you approach, all three look up at once and speak in sychronisation "We are Yip, you WILL be assimilated".

Don't give me ideas Khynal. You know it does not take much.

As you enter the dimly lit tunnels, you hear the rythmic beat of dozens of little paws hitting the earth in time... trump trump trump

Damn it, now I've got an image of them in little Storm Trooper outfits... "This is not the Yip you are looking for..."
