WOTC producing an Indiana Jones RPG???

I chuckled as I pictured Princess Vader.

It's Lady Vader, if you're nasty (and a noghri).

Be afraid. Be very afraid.

The Auld Grump

Be afraid. Be very afraid.

The Auld Grump

That thing's been floating around for years...and its still terrifying every single time I see it.

 

[Gundark]

Be afraid. Be very afraid.

A little part of me died inside

My daughter thought this picture was gorgeous. What does that mean? (She's 4)

You're no longer the parents in the household. Hehehe.

If the same kid is wearing a Darth Vader mask and a tiara, I call that disturbing imagery.

You almost ruined my computer with this... I was taking a drink of tea...

Anyhow, one item does not dress-up make. It's a fine distinction, but there it is. It's not costume play.

I think there's also a subtle distinction as to whether the item in question is an accoutrement of clothing, which entails actually, you know, dressing, or a non-clothing accessory.

Watch the young'uns at play some time. All it takes is one item, like a helmet and bang, there's your fireman. If you have a helmet, a jacket and a hose, then three kids can be firemen. Well, that is, if they are old enough to share.

It's not necessarily a gender distinction, either. There's a difference between selling Spidey webshooters, and selling that same accessory complete with a Spidey costume (tights, mask, gloves, and belt).

Ok, done with the hijack.

Enjoy your whips (roleplay) and fedoras (dress up).

Now, if we are talking about adults doing this, it is a little bit of a different matter.

I want the whip.

You'll have to go to your local adult novelty store for that.

That's because you had parties comprised of 5 Indies.

Aroudn the time it came out we played that a fair bit for a year or two as out not D&D game, we had to limit ourselves to 2 "Indies" in a group. the other 1 or 2 players ahd to be a supportign character of some sort. Char gern rules were certainly missing but easy enough to write-up. we had "Yucatan Sam", "Java John","Ohio Olsen" and other such horrible named heroes running around. short-round and Salah were the two most popualr side kicks a couple more got ripped off from films and tv such as the mechanic from "the legends of the gold monkey". We even had Captain Americas "Bucky" turn up for a while.

I kinda like "Yucatan Sam."
