[QUOTE="Crazy Jerome, post: 5971672, member: 54877"] No, it was more where your post got me thinking. As soon as you started the bit about elemental air and lift, I thought of the various people that had tried to make wings, and that made me think of Icarus. Having gone that far, it wasn't much of a jump in my scattered brain to Epimetheus and the gifts of the gods, with "Joe the Fighter" in the role of man. :) "[B]And the wizard is granted backstage access into the cosmic secrets of the universe."[/B] Wizard: Cool. Free pass! "[B]Thus the cleric has the ear of the gods."[/B] Cleric: As long as it stops there, I'm fine with that. Tell Zeus to keep his paws to himself, though. [B]"Rogue--step up to accept supreme cleverness and lithness."[/B] Rogue: Hmm, I'm seeing that "private property" is kind of a flexible concept here ... [B]"Fighter ..."[/B] Fighter: Yes? [B]" ... um, sorry, we are experiencing technical difficulties ..."[/B] Fighter: What tha? [B]" (muted talk in the background) ...Yes, yes, Ahem. Fighter , you will hit things with big sticks and withstand such blows mightily[/B]." Fighter: Alright! (Runs off happily to get a big stick.) [B]"It's the concussions. After awhile, they don't care anymore."[/B] Joe the Fighter: "Couldn't I have fire or something? Maybe a dash of poison to put on the arrows? Utility belt? Epimetheus: [B]"Hey buddy, let's talk after the ceremony, aight?"[/B] ;) [/QUOTE]
