But I figured since it deals with common RPG concepts and themes it would be appropriate in the General RPG Discussion forum with a Humor tag.]Every year, The Washington Post's Mensa Invitational asks readers to take any word from the dictionary, alter it by adding, subtracting, or changing one letter, and supply a new definition. In the spirit of that game, here are some new RPG-related terms some of my friends came up with. I thought it might be fun to post them here and get you guys to help come up with some more:Rule Playing Game - an interactive and improvisational game in which players and gamemasters devise scenarios designed to test each other's knowledge of the system without actually progressing the storyline.Spill Casting - casting an area affect spell within the immediate proximity of other party members with the hope it will not affect them either.Experience pints - awarding out experience points in excessive sums (often for the purpose of getting characters ready for the bad stuff).Fundead - undead that don't drain levels, points or inflict disease or other icky things. Just stupid and easy to kill (if not found in excessive numbers.Wall of Cthulhu - that impenetrable force (a monster, walking trees, that crucial clue or counter-ritual written in a language you can't read or speak) that keeps you from getting out of a Call of Cthulhu game alive.</blockquote>
