Message: <blockquote data-quote="Michael Silverbane" data-source="post: 5777349" data-attributes="member: 38016">I have been the player of that irresponsible explosives user (was in a Star Wars game).  A very common thing for me to say regarding my character's actions for the round was, "tick tick, BOOM!"The character was a starship engineer who had been fired for integrating concealed weapons into ostensibly civilian grade starships.  As compensation, he stole the prototype and made off into the outer rim to start himself a mercenary/shipping company.In one instance, I got the suspicion that a cloaked opponent was in the room, preparing to attack, so I tossed two thermal detonators into opposite corners of the room (the room which we were in, and which was not large enough to contain the blasts of two thermal detonators).  On the bright side, I was correct, we were about to be ambushed by a trio of cloaked aggressors.  On the other hand, I did blow us all up quite badly.  Oops.In another, we needed, for some reason that I don't recall, for local security forces not to know who was involved in our (criminal) operation.  So, I hijacked a Medium Transport filled with pigs, and set it to crash into the security office.  Molten bacon and starship parts were scattered for dozens of miles around the impact zone.  And lots and lots of people were probably murdered.  oops.The final such instance was very amusing.  My character was grappled by someone who had just taken down another of the characters.  Right after I had set up my emergency suitcase explosive, but before I had been able to move to a safe (ish) distance.  I detonated the thing anyway (since I had no hope of escaping the much more physically powerful opponent).  It killed my character, the downed character, the grappling bad-guy (along with the remaining bad guys) and collapsed a good portion of the underground base that we were infiltrating at the time.  Unfortunately, the rest of the party was stuck with the collapse in between them and the known route to safety.  Oops.</blockquote>
