"Yeah, where do you think I keep going?"

To deal Fairy Dust to irresponsible teenagers?

Are we too hard on Kyle?

Yeah next person in starts Gamma or some shit.

Gamma's before Epsilon?

Sign up I guess. Afterwards go read at the library.

You sign up. One of the things you needed to fill in was your codename--your superhero name. What did you put?
You head to the library.

Attempt locomotion.

[1+1] You can't quite manage it.

Get out of the van, be menacing.
"Gentlemen."

"What the h--"
"Sexist maniac. How do you do?"

-snip-
Also a car driving towards the stor--THERE'S A CAR DRIVING TOWARDS THE STORE TAKE COVER--Irving tries to see the scene with his own eyes to try and figure out what the hell just happened.

[2-1] Nope. You still don't see anything unusual except the monsters.

Wake up so I can fight those evil scum they call "nurses".

[1] When I get home, I'll find a die that doesn't hate you so much.

"Yeesh, what's wrong with people today? Well, guess I'll be leaving, then."

Try to think of relatives in Illinois who don't live in a radioactive idiot-infested ruin of a city and who instead live in some kind of small town a bit farther away. Wander further away from any activity.

[3] You have a...whatever you call a cousin's daughter living in Indiana. Which wouldn't be so bad, except that she's a bit of a loner and it's in Indiana.

go full demon and jump from building to building setting each roof on fire as i go.

You do so. You wonder why no heroes have showed up. [1] No heroes have showed up.

So what tech exactly is this dude carrying?

EXAMINE THE HERO FOR SEXY TECH

[4] A few things that look like ray guns, and some other miscellaneous gadgets in a utility belt.

Kel Alern: [1,5,1]
Um...geez, I must have sleep deprivation. I can't think of a good way to kick of your whatever-career with no superpoewr origin story.

GWG, you're acting a bit like a dick. Calm down a little.

I blame te time of night.

Please put Roll to Alien in the library.
Status: Active
Summary: A game about a variety of aliens living and working together on a space station.

Heads up; to get into the Library, your RTD has to be active for at least an entire month. If you wait a few weeks everything should be good.

The guy running the library also needs to get around to updating it. Monthly my golden-scaled tail...

Oh.
Dangit.
Gimme a sec.

Shouldn't I have a Minor Act?

I'm not sure if it's him or his personality or his lack of experience or what, but he ruins more plans than he helps. Did I tell you about the time he ruined a plan, sometimes one he made, by angering the guards outside the building they were entering?
I'd have to be more specific, because he's done that in everything from low fantasy to cyberpunk.

Yeah, some people do crazy things. Like get themselves kicked out of taverns and cost other part members gold by damaging the furniture in an attempt to imprison random townsfolk.

Oh! Did I tell you about the time he complained about starting the adventure in jail (as a rogue), and then he got into trouble with the law in every town they went to?

of course i have to ruin the plans of the GM, thats half the fun of roleplaying!

I was referring to the plans of the other characters you've ruined. Or your own plans.

and if he was not armed, what kind of fool walks into a dungeon unarmed?

Um, a healer? Whose only purpose there was to let you guys heal between battles because no one played a cleric?

my character was taught that healing people was one of the highest ways to praise his god- the god of healing, and that hurting people was bad, and that peace is a very good thing.

Are you alright? Next thing I know, you'll be capitalizing your sentences!

...The best experiences come from the time that the players went somewhere the GM didn't expect, or accidentally prevented an important event in the story, or killed the main villain before the GM expected. The best roleplaying story I've ever heard was the result of a character accidentally throwing a flask of acid directly in the face of the party's godlike employer, prompting a full manhunt and eventually leading to the party attempting to overthrow a city and attempt to defeat him and keep him from resurrecting.

My experiences support this argument.
Especially the times when someone (zk) screws himself over. Did I tell you about the time that we were playing GURPS, he angered some guards, and then hid in the ground and waited for the other PC to show up? (The best part is, he rolled so badly on his roll to guess when that would be that he came out to see a completely empty and primarily ransacked castle.)

I've gamed with this guy a lot. Most of the face-to-face campaigns I've been in, in fact.

Kyle walks into the great hall and sits at the PC table.
"I know two classes Delta should take."

"What?"
