Creaca's avatar scares me...

I just remember Armok's avatar being called a Glow in the Dark Dwarven Bikini during some thread or another, and It only took me months of procrastination to spend 5 minutes to make that dream into a reality.

WHYYYYYY

Oh my god the bindings of the universe have been loosened! Quickly, run to your loved ones and hug them! That is if the air hasn't turned to fire, your hands to snakes, or you loved ones to decorative but pretentious furniture pieces!

I had a lot of emotional turmoil when creating this Avatar, as I did not want to bring down Armok's anger on myself.



No, not really.

Growing up in a semi-rural neighbor-hood consisting entirely of boys, I am now able to admit we where some vicious little pricks. One of the best pastimes, was for me and the neighbors youngest child, who was closest to my age, to torment my younger brother. We would create fictional clubs, and my brother, wanting to be in on the fun, would do anything to join. Oh and we certainly made him do anything. Some choice bits I remember are forcing him to climb to the bottom of a well naked, while we threw his clothing up in the tree by the road, having him piss on a tree, then lick it, tie a ribbon around the tail of one of the neighbors bulls, oh and that time we locked him in the freezer of the nearby Peach Shed.

Good times.

Going to be playing Forgotten Realms DnD 3.5 soon! Very soon! After a failed attempt at starting Exalted, we've pirated all of the 3.5 source books, and most of our group have already completed or started on character sheets.

I actually have very little experience in DnD PnP, but I have a good concept of the general mechanics and setting from Neverwinter Nights I and II, Baldur's Gate, and a few supplementary books I picked up and read for fun a couple of years ago.

We'll be doing an evil campaign, I'll be an LE Cleric of Jergal, with Repose and Fate as my domains. I was originally planning a Werewolf Cleric of Malar, but the +3 ECL and the lack of a lawful character to keep the group goal oriented made me and our DM decide I should change classes.

Writing complete fail on so many levels, it makes me angry that this game was praised for good writing. "You seen my dad, older, brown haired guy?" You mean, like, the 20 in megaton alone? "I fight the good fight with my voice kid, you better believe it!" "Intelligence: Ah, so you fight the good fight with your voice." "That's right kid you're just a chip off the old block aren't you." So my dad is functionally retarded, that would explain why he left me in a vault with a murderous megalomaniac without telling me he was leaving.

Just a note, if a kid in a vault suit walked into my hypothetical post-apocalyptic town, and asked me where to find his or her Dad, and an older gentleman in a vault suit had just recently come through town, it honestly wouldn't be hard to put two and two together.

Three Dog was being very vague from that point, and it's not like that choice required 10 Intellect.

Oh and yeah, even if he had known that the Vault Overseer was an insane sociopath, I think he'd still have to seriously think about leaving you to deal with him, or dealing with the plethora of brutal monsters in the radiation bathed wasteland outside the vault.

Eden: It's an Endless World

An Sci-Fi Action/Adventure Manga that also explores cultural identity, the growth of a boy into a man, and some allusions to current politics. It has gotten critical acclaim worldwide, not just in Japan.

Add a helping of incredible detailed artwork, awesome action scenes, and a little sex every now and then and you've got a pretty bitching Manga.

You'll notice I didn't say a word about the story? That was intentional, I'm not going to spoil anything if I can help it.

I haven't actually done that, but it's something my players would do.  And the shades are just the plot devices that they chuck at you in Planescape (or whatever they were called).

Um, Planescape and Planescape: Torment are not interchangeable terms...  It's like how when you're referring to KotOR you wouldn't say "Star Wars is annoying because it's full of fake choices, like that time where you meet a that Sith receptionist and all options lead to immediate violence, even though you're heavily armed and all she has is a knife."

Because 'fake choices' never happen in all RPGs, even Pen and Paper RPGs.
