Wulf's Collected Story Hour -- FINAL UPDATE 12/25

[Wulf Ratbane]

You know, any DM that can kill his players that often, and still have them coming back for more, has got to be a pretty damn good one.

Yeah, he is-- even though by his own admission he gets a little competitive at times.

But then, we do tend to egg him on.

Take a look at the ELH, and think to yourself, "Hmm. Paragon Desmodus."

Oi! They can't use Paragon! That's my prestige class title! Those bastards!

I would be pleased if Keldas took over DMing, especially RttToEE. He has a very laid back hack and slash style, perfect for that module I think. And, I haven't ever played on the same side of the table as dinkeldog. I think it would be... ehh, interesting.

Shubba the Goat Boy
(get used to it!)

Shubba? The.. goat.. boy?

[Nail]

Wait a sec here. ...<snip>... Don't walk away from it all. Leave us some hope here.

<points at Immort>

Yeah, what he said!

'Dog, yer not taking my rule-whinin' personally, are you? You think the rest of us haven't made bone-head.....err, questionable rule calls too? Heck, even P-kitty does, and he's a Super-DM.

Breathe easy, Paragon is a template...

 

[Dinkeldog]

Nail, I'm really psyched about doing Bastion. There's nothing to do after that, though. If I get a grand idea, I'll propose to the group, but we've got other things we want to do as a group. There's Kheldas' game and RttToEE on the docket. I'm sure everyone will hold onto their character sheets if something comes up and we want a break from the meatgrinder that those both are.

 

[Immort]

See, that's all I'm askin'. Just a little bit o' hope. Do a year of somethin' else wit someone else DM'n and yer gonna git that itch ta do things "the right way". One too many rules calls that itch yer sack, one too many times when yer thinkin' "I'd have done that differently . . . and better" and next thing yer knows, you'll be makin' notes of ideas on scraps of paper, lookin' at the new epic modules that come out, and WHAMMO you'll be nukin' pc's all over again . . . epically!

Heh.

And, I haven't ever played on the same side of the table as dinkeldog. I think it would be... ehh, interesting.

Gumby said sumptin' kinda like that a while back. Said he wanted ta try tossin' dice with me 'stead of against me. Be on the same side and all. Well Jordan stepped up ta the "Sadist's Screen" so he finally got his wish. We'll have ta let ya know how it goes.

hehe two very good things to quote there Immort!

Good ones! hehe

Well personally I am Not a fan of Epic level play,
However I Am a fan of Wulf and I shudder at the thought of not being able to read his adventures.

But! If there ever was a character to play at Epic levels it would be the truly Epic Wulf Ratbane!

And dinkledog has you guys in the only place that, to me, makes sense to have epic characters. Out amongst the Planes!

although I kinda think that Wulf found dead in a hotel room on the crapper is the way it should go down!
Hail to the king, baby!

Long time reader, first time poster.

After reading through the entire story in one sitting, and telling my players about it, and their readings of it, I can say Wulf is now the most paraphrased and quoted thing at our table. Shouts of "I hit the (blank), I hit the (Blank)", and cries about things needing a taste of the old bootleather abound. I just have to say, it is great reading, Wulf is the most memorable character I can think of, and one of the most quotable. Thanks for sharing it with all of us.

As a side note, you havent read anything by a Richard Marcinko, have you Wulf? His attitude and personality, and Wulfs seem to be quite close.

oh, btw. BUMP

At first I was going to say, "Huh? Who?" and then it hit me.

Seal Team Six or something, right? I have read him, but I can't say there was any deliberate influence there. But it is an amazing similarity.

I think Dick's underlying morals are a lot more noble than Wulf's.

Oh I dont know Ben.

Dick truly is a dick, an incredibly arrogant thinks he is God dick. He holds nothing at all to good old Wulf.
