Just had a classic quote come up in my Acrozatarim pbp. One of the characters, Melisande, started as a sorceress but has picked up a paladin level at 5th level, and thus has had the party fighter, Sebastion, giving her lessons in how to use a sword. He taught her a basic four stances based on the four elements. Now they're deep in the bowels of an ancient tower fighting mad cultists, and Melisande has just had a small, psychotic fiend bite into her leg and refuse to let go. And here's the quote:
"Forgotten were the solid Earth stance, the flowing attacks of Water, the quick dance of Fire and the lightness of Air: Mel was in the I've-Got-a-Beast-Clamped-onto-my-Leg stance, which consisted of hopping, kicking and flailing with her freshly unsheathed sword, and screaming in short bursts to accompany the sword thrusts."


I've got a great bunch of players
