[QUOTE="Jeysie, post: 3514595, member: 51817"] In my group... almost every single hour is "that time of night". We are a bunch of nutjobs with a love of dysfunctional characters. Some things off the top of my head... - The time in an SF campaign that we spaced a bunch of invaders in the Engineering section of our ship by convincing the computer there was a horrible plasma fire in Engineering. - The time in the same campaign that the party's droid decided to attack a bounty hunter that was after us by throwing two crates of root beer at him. He then had my engineer throw his droid at the bounty hunter as well, since we decided were on a roll. - The time again later in the same campaign that we needed to escape a barfight to reach a starport, so the droid convinced my engineer to hotwire one of the police cars that came to stop the fight. When we reached the starport, he parked the police car in a handicapped spot, then, after we all bailed out, proceeded to slash the tires, drink the battery dry, write "Cobalt was here" in the side of the car with a laser torch (Cobalt being the bounty hunter that got the root beer thrown at him), smash the car repeatedly, and finally set it on fire. My engineer doesn't let him steal cars any more. - The time another campaign party's ranger decided to go off alone and raid the storeroom of a known zombie-infested bar for liquor, and got attacked by two barrel-wielding zombies. The cleric and beguiler ended up having to chase after her and save her from undead doom. - The time in the same campaign that we came across a large, slick, ice patch that we needed to get across with our wagon. This ice patch was on a mountain. With a metric crapload of snow. The same ranger proceeded to pull out a very powerful horn we had obtained earlier in the adventure. The sonic force *did* crack the ice... but it also caused a massive avalanche that we only escaped from by the skin of our teeth. - The time we had a huge fight where we encountered several Orcs, a sorceror, and their leader, and proceed to burninate their fort and kill almost all of them. That wasn't the weird part. No, the weird part was when that same ranger decided to try to convince the sole surviving Orc to join our party. This after we gouged out his eye with an arrow and beat him quite a bit, so he's standing there bleeding and throwing insults and "Death first!"s at us and still trying to attack us. While she's doggedly trying to give him speeches about the employee benefits of joining us. *shakes head* There's plenty of other things as well. The two sessions spent on a massive PC vs. PC snowball fight; the time we met up with a Surfer Cleric of Pelor and went surfing; the time the ranger got put on trial by the entire cast of Half-Life; the Christmas session where we got a tour of Santa's workshop, with the crankiest, snarkiness Elf ever as our guide; the town with 57 people, 3,000 cows, one goat, and no milk available in the restaurants; the time we had to escape from a tornado... Yeah, life in our RP sessions is rarely boring. Peace & Luv, Liz [/QUOTE]
