[QUOTE="Richards, post: 498760, member: 508"] Here's my first entry. I can't figure out how to get the lines to not left justify other than by using a string of periods, so I'll do it that way for now. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - [B]IF DR. SEUSS WROTE THE KNIGHTS OF THE DINNER TABLE[/B] B.A.: You've been traveling through the Vast Jungles of Glear ........And the primitive natural beauty is clear. ........There are ruins ahead, hidden by leaf and vine. ........In the shadows they hide, where the sun cannot shine. ........The monkeys cavorting above you seem vexed-- BOB: Hey, B.A., let's dispense with the flavor text. .......Of your fancy descriptions there's never a lack .......But you're sadly behind in the Quotient of Hack. B.A.: All right, moving on, you can see up ahead ........Standing all by himself in the Halls of the Dead ........A lone lizardman druid with paint on his face ........You can sense that he's filled with compassion and grace. SARA: Oh good, here's a chance to use my parley skills. BRIAN: No way! He's the next of Teflon Billy's kills. ..........Just think of the E.P.s! Why, I can just taste 'em! BOB: Too late! He's all mine! With my crossbow I waste him! BRIAN: Firk ding nabbit, Bob! Those E.P.s were all mine! ..........But I'll have my revenge: fireball coming online! SARA: Well, now hold it, Big Guy! Let's have no more in-fighting! BRIAN: Too bad; Knuckles' face is just way too inviting! B.A.: Are you doing it, Brian? Are you casting the spell? SARA: Don't do it, Brian! BRIAN: Are you kidding? Like hell! ..........I'm sick of that butt-monkey giving me grief! ..........Everyone, say goodbye to Knuckles the Thief! B.A.: Bob, roll a d20, and please roll it well. ........We need to know if Knuckles saves vs. spell. BOB: Crap! I rolled a 1! Poor old Knuckles is screwed! .......I can't believe it! DAVE: Man, you were robbed, dude! B.A.: I'm sorry to say, Brian's tactics were strange. ........I'm afraid that the rest of the party's in range. ........It sure feels like I'm dealing with mental midgets: ........Knuckles is dead; you're all in single digits! BOB: Avenge me, El Ravager! DAVE: No problem, dude! SARA: Are you sure about that? That may not be real shrewd. DAVE: Don't worry, I'll take Teflon Billy myself. ........ Remember, I've got a Hackmaster +12! BRIAN: Well, bring it on, then! Let me see your best shot! DAVE: Oh, you're going to see all the power I've got!
