[QUOTE="the Jester, post: 9049621, member: 1210"] All right, so I have to set this up a little bit. So one of the groups I run is in the middle of doing a series of quests for the King of Birds- basically, the Animal Lord of birds. It manifests through other birds, speaking through their mouths, etc. This quest has involved a number of very weird, very cool tasks that required unorthodox solutions and out of the box thinking; to wit- The first task was to heal the broken heart of a kocho (basically a flightless riding bird). The second task was to raise a baby roc to adulthood. The third task was to judge which of two stunning birds of paradise was the prettiest bird of paradise in the world. The fourth task was to save a group of storm petrels from an algae bloom that was poisoning their food and making them sick. Finally, the pcs received their final task: to prevent the extinction of the birds on the island of Bal-Ramos, and here we have a more conventional challenge. After some investigation, much of it relying on the totem barbarian's ability to cast speak with animals as a ritual, they learned that the threat was a bunch of cats (well, kill kittens, but you know). While discussing how to ensure that the party got all the cats, one of the birds mentioned that the cats all tend to return to this ruin at night and yowl at each other. And here's my moment, folks- one of the most hilarious rp moments I have ever delivered. The bird said, "They make a lot of noise at night, you know, cat noise. Like this: twerp twerp!" It was a bird trying to meow like a cat, but because it was a bird... get it? It was- it was- maybe you had to be there, but trust me, it really was. [/QUOTE]
