I turned my head into a golden lizard. Beat that!

Theres a dude who converted his lungs into kittens.

-copying, copying, copied- Now to figure out a new sourcebook for 3.5e with this wonderful little system. Time for that long held tradition of Traditional RPGs that is taking as much out of the hands of the DM as possible and strapping it to tables, sweet, sweet tables. I'll see if I can post it up here when I finish with it, but I'm probably going to enjoy the next week or so of writing it.

((First thing that came to mind, I guess. I don't actually know much about how any organized crime works. Or disorganized crime.))

((Triads work like your average criminal organization from what I've gathered - they've got ceremonies of their own, a power structure (with a Dragon Head at the top, middle-management and advisors beneath him, regular thugs beneath them). Notable differences from the Italian Mafia are that they are Chinese in origin and that they are better known for their work in counterfeiting and pirating stuff than other organizations, though they do the other stuff in notable amounts as well.

Triads making superheroes would be pretty funny, as it does tie into the counterfeiting thing.))

I'm not even sure what that is.

What is it?

Compare your later verses to Jay's, for example:

Spoiler: Jay Z's Dead Presidents (click to show/hide)

While others spit that Wonderama shit, me and my conglomerate
Shall remain anonymous, caught up in the finest shit
Live out my dreams until my heart give out
Involved with cream, you know exactly what this shit's about
Fuck y'all mean? Handling since a teen, I dish out
Like the point guard off your favorite team, without doubt
My life ain't rosy but I roll with it
My mind was fine 'til the dough hit it and told me that the Mo' did it
And now it's kosher, shit is so Hasidic
I blow a digit on a diamond in a minute but no bitches
Watch how I'm walking cause even the thoroughest niggas be narkin'
Tryin' to strike a bargain hoping that they might get pardoned
Shit I'm involved with got me pins and needles
And my cerebral breeds the wickedest evil thoughts that this sport'll feed you
Peep facts, in the game so deep fiends could catch ya
Freeze off my knee cap, can y'all believe that?

Intense vocabulary? Check.
Bragging based on intellect? Check.
