Maybe split the whole thing into words, prefixes, and suffixes? A "word" is a thing - an object or a concept. Prefixes and suffixes would add modifiers to it, a-la materials and other concepts, like "reverse", "living", "giant", etc. Create junction words to be used between main words, "for", "with", "to", "against", etc. Make it more like a language.

Too complicated?

It sounds like something that COULD be useful, but would more likely just be confusing.

Some kind of "half-separate" or "Plus" word might be useful, though. Something like "Steel Crossbow PLUS Fire Acid" would make a steel crossbow that fires acid.

((You'd better not...although rolling to see how well Evan dances would be appreciated.))

Angel dances with Evan.

---

After the dance, Angel grabs her present, dragging Evan with, and heads over to Selina and Victoria, still dragging Evan.

((kj, Projeck: I've been watching some of your posts, and I'm warning you...careful how you two tread.))

Angel finds Evan sitting at a table alone, reading. He's wearing his tux! Dawwwwwwwww. He notices her and waves.

Angel grabs Evan.
"We're dancing now." She [81+16] drags him to the dancing area and [36+14] dances about as well as one would expect a 5-year-old to dance.

...Sue Lenglon for noncreativity?

Words like that would e neat.

Will Stella takes a seat at the front of the class, wondering what is going on.

((Is it just PCs or are there also NPCs? And if the latter, could you describe some sitting by Will?))

Not really. And yes, doing this puts you in danger.
Also ill kill you because since it seems im the King of the Pit, ill do what i please, and that includes killing you, hopefully, in a horrible manner.

When someone accuses you of trying to take over an otherwise fun game, the typical response is to prove the accuser wrong or promise not to do so, not to prove him right.
And you know what? You're not immortal. Perhaps you'll recall a certain French king, late 18th century? Granted, his death was followed by a time of chaos, another couple kings, and another couple revolutions, but that was because the French had to govern France. Anyways, that didn't help the old King feel better, so watch out or you'll get killed by some black holes.

((No, I'm not in the game at all. I just agree with the sentiment.

Well, thanks for the moral support. I suppose the AMPAK will only be two for now.

It's actually much better for the game this way. An alliance of weaker mages just needs enough people to shout "propel blackhole" at the overbuffed self-imposed kings-of-the-pit to get positive results.))

I'm glad you agree with our mission. We're not really weaker, though; it's more like if the US told North Korea (and incidentally Canada, Australia, European nations, etc) how to make all of its fun high-tech weapons.

But, isnt that the point of the game? Killing all you can? Except if they re your allies.

Which is why we are killing you.

Not really. I know quite a few ways to be safe from blackholes.

Like what, lucky Str rolls?

Which is my apparent fate since everyone seems to have it out for me.

I'm legitimately worried that I'll only have one or two turns before said 'seven vs one' and I won't be able to do anything.

Well, you have my word that if you don't indiscriminately murder tons of people, I won't even lift a...syllable?...to oppose you.

Also, I am really hoping for Sazrael's death right now.

((I'm willing to wait until SCIENCE MAN! can do the honors, given how much he's wanted to kill me. Not that I have any choice, nor would I complain if I couldn't.))

Also, i dont find this boring.

You're not the one being killed by knowledge monopolists, are you?

Still killing GWG for own reasons, though.

And i wont deliberately target scientists as victims on battle (may do at random) unless they somehow bother me.

Explain, please.
