[QUOTE="gfunk, post: 1877058, member: 1813"] What are you talking about!? "I go into the bar to make some contacts." - said by player during a short-lived Werewolf campaign during some "in-game" downtime. "Eat lead Chinaman!!!!" - said by me during a short-lived Deadlands campaign. I was playing a xenophobic, 80-year old vet of the war of 1812 who was referring to a "kung-fu" character run by the "contacts" player above. "Seriously Joe, you should give him the Axe and watch the fun." - Me, convincing our DM to give "contacts" player the Axe of the Dwarvish Lords during a 2nd ed campaign. I was convinced that any potentially unbalancing aspects of the weapon would be offset by the sheer comedic value in the hands of an idiot -- we were not disappointed when he tried to start an Earthquake spell in an underground cavern. "Sorry, he failed his morale check and he can't go underground." - Our DM to the "contacts" player in the same 2nd ed campaign. Said player had constructed a Sundred Dwarf whose persona included a pathological fear of the underground. Right after making a character, our first destination was an underground ice cave and the player promptly failed his morale check thus rendering him useless. JollyDoc later felt bad and let him "re-check." "I polymorph him into a cockroach." - Me, declaring my action against the "contacts" player after he had become drunk with power with the Axe of the Dwarvish Lords. Said player had been charmed by an enemy spellcaster and was relishing his ability to sever body parts of former allies a little too much. Unfortunately, the "cockroach" escaped before we were able to catch him. "Sorry Chris, you've been voted off the island." - JollyDoc, in an email to "contacts" player after a particularly heinous incident where said player pulled a "screw you guys, I'm going home" when we wouldn't give him the magic bastard sword we recovered from the Forge of Fury. Said player wasn't sure if we wanted him back so he suggested we take a group vote. Everyone voted him out . . . except me. In my wisdom, I recognized said player as more than comedy gold -- this guy was comedy uranium. [/QUOTE]
