D20Modern: The "In Character" Character game[Recruitment]

[Dalamar]

Well, my equipment for a trip abroad would probably include:

• Backpack
• mobile phone
• corebooks & dice
• salmiakki (if you don't know what it is, ask)
• Some random stuff that probably doesn't matter

Stuff that I might have with me:

• my acoustic guitar
• my air soft gun

you can have it, but ah...you're not going to carry EVERYTHING with you around campus are you? Campus security will stop you for that airgun.

and what is salmiakki ?

Otherwise, just post yourself in the character forum and join us around the table.

Equipment is not a big deal for me as long as its REASONABLE.

 

[Dalamar]

I think I probably would have almost all of it with me all the times, the exception being my guitar because that's too big to be conventional (pun intended).
And unless the security are doing a search on me, they aren't seeing the gun . Advantages of wearing loose clothing.

lol

I'll ask you this. Do you always take your gun with you when you go roleplaying?

 

[Dalamar]

No. But I don't always go roleplaying abroad.

And when I bought the gun last spring, I actually went everywhere with it for a couple of days. I was travelling at a theater competition and did some impulsive shopping. The gun stayed with me while we watched one of the competiting plays, when we were getting to know the city, in the buss, at the kiosk and fuel stations... you get the point.

And of course I forgot to tell you what salmiakki (pronounced pretty much like it was latin, weight on first syllable) is. It is a type of candy that, for some reasons, not so many non-finns like. It is generally unavailable outside Finland (I'm not completely sure of the neighboring countries).

Edit - Regarding the air soft gun: I'm also too young to get a car to compensate, if you catch my meaning

 

[KitanaVorr]

okay

you can have the gun, but if if IC Hanh sees you with that gun, you're going to get a big thwap on the skull. I'd thump the skull off of anyone who would bring something like that to one of my games. I don't approve of carrying concealed weapons

Oh and the stats for the airgun, describe it for me first so I can get an idea of what exactly it is or does. I've never actually used one before.

 

[Dalamar]

Then I probably got whacked before the game begins, because I have a habit of fingering the hand grip when I'm just sitting around.

As for statting it: the clip can hold 25 'bullets'. I don't have a spare clip, so loading speed doesn't really matter (well, I'd say it takes about a full-round action to load a single bullet to the clip)
The gun's supposed to shoot around 80m (somewhere around 270ft) in straight line, so that should probably equal its max range, making the range increment 54ft. We'll round up to 55ft and get a max range of 275ft.
Single shot fire rate (cheapest style air soft gun)
The size of a Desert Eagle, but made of plastic so much lighter (small or medium size)

Included is a pic from the box

Edit - the 'bullets' are plastic spheres with about 6mm (6/25 inch) diameter.
A shot from less than 3ft goes through weak plastic easily. And the same shot hurts like hell if you were shot instead of plastic.

omigod. It looks just like a real gun. I don't know about Finland, but if you pulled that sucker out in the US, people would think you had a real gun and (if they're the wrong kind of people) shoot you with guns that aren't air guns.

So I'm assuming its sort of like a BB gun then? that shoots out pellets?

And yeah not only would I have thumped you hard, I might have actually made you go put it away if it looked like that.

EDIT:

okay that's a lie I would have taken the gun and been playing with it the whole time ;p

This would happen in Finland too

and (if they're the wrong kind of people) shoot you with guns that aren't air guns.

...this wouldn't

Quess what? This turned out when I started looking more carefully. I just haven't ever used that term. I've always talked of air soft guns (with the english term)
