That said, it has the potential to be a parody depending on how the rest of the world is.

If it's one weird superhero in an endless void, it's obviously not parodying anything. If it's a weird superhero in a city full of parodies of other supers, which has a plot which parodies superhero stories, it's a parody no matter how weird or normal the main character is.

One mighty act to ressurect the dwarves, send them to the continent east of eversummer, and to create a mountain range between that continents' isolated mountains.
Makes it sound like you're only sending the resurrected dwarves to Eversummer. Which, I should add, Thaneos likely won't like...
Hes sending them to the continent east of eversummer, not to eversummer itself.
Still. He didn't phrase it like every dwarf was going there, which leaves me dwarves to save.
Aye. How ironic that dwarves who killed the drakes may end up being saved by the a dragon. they'll owe you one for sure.
You bet your bottom...york? Um, hold on.

And we can pretend that your merchants and my merchants are selling stuff to each other, and that there's some cross-migration going on! Interspecies cities!

Break out some spare paper and a copy of some Fiasco module. Start a game.

Sunglasses aren't in common use. I am the first to use sunglasses in the history of Portal.
But portal is supposed to be set in a sort of...post-apocalyptic future. So Sunglasses have been invented. Multiple times. ALTHOUGH, there is a chance that all the copyright laws have been abolished at this point in time.
What gave you the idea that Portal was postapocalyptic?
The fact that the announcer in Portal 2 states that is IS the future. And that the outside world is probably destroyed. Or ruled by an animal king.

And what makes you think he's a reliable source of information?

I'm not terribly interested in wood or gold at the moment, thank you very much. Maybe wood for gold, but I don't think you want to buy gold...

I like how I've managed to have almost everyone follow me.

Usually they're going the opposite way really fast and on fire.
Sigged.

Anyone who gets my pretty obvious reference gets a gold star.
Starship Troopers, the book at least. Never seen the films.
I think the Warframes are more mecha than powered armor, though.

Also, Tsuchi, are you using some sort of random bit generator to figure these out?

And GWG, I KNOW what I am doing.
You had darn well better.

And I already saved all the dwarves too.

The spire is on the first continent. Check my turn post in the game thread. And GWG, I KNOW what I am doing. And I already saved all the dwarves too.
You're worse than Mutare! At least he didn't promote a god-killing murderous, backstabbing dwarf to a GOD.
Strangely enough, my instinct is to agree...although I'm suspecting that my bias is overtaking reason here.

Aww why couldn't anyone elevate me?  I would be an awesome god.  The god of evolution!  Anyway if there are no complaints I'm going to go to that spire and use it just once to ascend.  No problems with that right?
Nah, I'm planning to do something similar. Maybe we could team up afterwards?

Wounded, damaged gear, more pressing threats to safety over production? Shall I continue? You did notice we were sorta attacked right? Had i known THAT would happen i would have waited until afterward to kill you.
None of that impairs your vocal cords.
The fact i wasn't in the tower for some turns and upon returning we were attacked sorta impairs my ability to communicate with tower residents.
True.

Quote
Since you were incapable of bothering to try to do any RP communication with anyone, i wouldn't expect you to understand that
I was busy studying. From personal experience, study and chatter don't mix.

Either way, I was simply the trigger man and I had given a full heads up IC that failure meant death - which you ignored entirely.
How is this relevant?
The IC warning was several turns before you -ever- bothered to try looking for the books you lost.
Oh, that. I thought you meant the fact that you would die if you screwed up.
And, once again, once you actually killed me I was finished with my "useless" phase, which I had mentioned OOC and such, and IC by helping out. Or trying to but being killed.

Even after you made Adept, you continued to cock-block the rank progression of the rest of the tower.
Wasn't the turn after I made Adept the one where I was persuaded to help you? Or was that the one I tried to improve our library?
Persuaded? I asked for your 'help' simply to get you outside and into an ambush, which you sadly rolled high enough to notice.
Yes, yes, but I didn't know that. Well, until you killed me.
(FYI, I accepted your invitation to help to show that I would be helpful.)

Quote
And improve how? No one needed duplicates of the books (an act in which you continued to cause the -2 malus during) because them being lost was no longer an issue once Ardas had warded them against removal fro the library.
So only one person can study a given book when they're both in the library?

Quote
In fact your attempts to 'improve' the library continued to hinder the efforts of other players trying to advance in rank.
It was a temporary issue which would have been resolved if my plan had worked. A temporary penalty for a benefit next turn and the rest of the game seemed a fair trade-off to me.

What's worse? I wasn't even the first person to ATTEMPT you kill you, you were simply too dense to notice and rolled too well for it to happen sooner.
Okay, I'm pretty sure I would have noticed that. Definitely if the attempt on my life was mentioned in the section where everything of note which happened to Maxine is put, which it really should have been.

[?] Lacking a good point where you could use the element of surprise to your advantage, you instead bend your efforts towards your research.
Sorry to out you shoot, but the proof needed to be made clear.
That's a little bit vague, you know. And I try not to read into the others' actions too much if my character isn't aware of them, to avoid metagaming.

Quote
You were killed for blatant disregard for the productivity of the ENTIRE TOWER, not just yourself. You seem to think one act of productivity outweighs 10+ turns of uselessness because you did a tiny bit of exploring. The very moment that the library was established, you basically never left. Even before that you decided 'cooking' was a legitimate use of your time. An act which, honestly, i thought was purely fluff and an RP attempt - which i humored. You then proceeded to ignore the RP posts everyone else made and infact answered IC remarks OOC, making your previous 'cooking' posts COMPLETELY useless and thus adding to reasoning to want you gone.
No, my point was that you were claiming that I never helped. I've freely admitted that I wasn't very helpful, with the caveat that I was ready and able to help when you killed me.

Quote
You can keep trying to convince 5 players that your death wasn't justified,
...
Please, continue to argue against your death. At this point I'm simply going to ignore you entirely because you're apparently unable to grasp simple concepts like 'teamwork' and 'being wrong'.
I'm not. I'm merely pointing out that others have emulated some of the deeds which got me killed with no repercussions whatsoever.

To repeat, in larger font because this has been ignored for a while:
I AM NOT TRYING TO CONVINCE YOU MY DEATH WAS UNJUSTIFIABLE, JUST THAT OTHERS HAVE SHARED MY CRIMES SINCE MY DEATH.

I thought I had already posted a new application. Huh.

Oh, and by the way: This is a minor bit of complaint against the way Terenos dismissed my arguments about Maxine not having any useful skills, and therefore not having anything to do except test my luck further in the catacombs, risk destroying something with Void Magic, or learn more.

I can't wait for Swiftbeast to reach Hilltop, nor do I want to trust him to do the right thing...I'll have him stop at Northton and raise a local speardragon for Hilltop.
