[QUOTE="Moe Ronalds, post: 83077, member: 2083"] I once played in a game my friend's dad had invented. Anyway, we didn't get to pick our characters, we got them by rolling a die, and then he handed us a character sheet. And some of the characters were more than slightly strange. My friend ended up playing a spice-girl type warrior. Her sister played some guy who'd lost his face in some thing. My friend's father's friend played an obese dwarf who wore a moose-skin kilt. My character was a malfunctioning, bald, female robot. Each round I'd roll a six sided die to see what kind of action I would take. This included punching a guy one round, then successfully getting his approval the next round by giving him three gold coins, then punching him again. It wasn't very helpful that my character loved negotiating. Later on in the same game, we had to fight a couple of evil cultists who worshipped the mystic spoon god and attacked us with giant grape fruit spoons... Then there was this weird guy who had his pet blue gorilla thing attack us. And the hologram that had a delightful tea party with us. And the angry bladed plants of doom. And this weird myst that made everyone except the obese scottish dwarf (he was too short) hallucinate. That was a very strange game... [/QUOTE]
