Why must every woman at my job wear enough perfume to make a dung beetle vomit?
Maybe your office had an infestation of dung beetles.
But then your office has an infestation of dung beetle vomit.
Suddenly Dwarf Fortress.

In the interest of giving me some amusement and ideas, I'm rereading You At Final Boss.
What the fuck was I on.


When the first effective action is 'I throw a pineapple at the immortal, unstoppable doomlich' it's a good RTD.
This right here? THis is going in the sigbox.

Ah, but will he be able to defeat God's right hand man, Bruce Lee?
Don't forget his right foot man, Chuck Norris, who owes a debt of servitude to the one man to defeat him in hand-to-hand combat, Bruce Lee.


The left hand is Stephen Colbert because it's ironic that he's on the left hand. The left foot is Simo Hayha, who can lay claim to the longest uninterrupted killstreak in all of camper history.
I might be able to respect this god.
Wait. Who is the chest of god, then? The mouth is obviously BILLY MAYS or BRIAN BLESSED.

How would you guys, if any of you are inclined to writing, write the balrog battle in the Fellowship of the Ring?
I would clarify if the beast had wings or not ;)
But seriously, Tolkien did a great job, why would I have to rewrite the scene? Context is important here.

No idea.  Make it longer? I dunno; I'm not thinking clearly.

Long ago, I had an awesome adventurer who killed countless bandits and kobolds, a plains titan, and a number of other beasties. Along the way, she became a Mace Lord (Lady?), a Necromancer, and then a Vampire. I got bored with her and retired her in a city at some point, to start the adventure anew with some other poor bastard. After a string of dead poor bastards, I finally kept one alive long enough to get to a nearby city. "This city seems familiar," I think to myself. I beg for a quest, kill a night beast, return, ask for another, and am told to kill a vampire that has infiltrated society. Hey, guess who that vampire ends up being.

My god-like, nigh immortal, mace wielding lunatic former adventurer.

Armok Damnit.

You simply must tell us how this goes.
I've tried this and it generally ends with the former adventurer killing the entire city without a scratch, becoming even more skilled in the process, and then killing you.

Gah! Sorry.

Pick up whatever guns are within my square, then move one square south, taking cover and shooting Blue.

A sect of seven psychologically damaged dwarves that don't really care any more, fighting for their farming rights under the volcanic mountains. After discovering a particularly tasty breed of plump helmets, they attempt to weaponize the delicious purple spade in some way, hoping to use the revolutionary weapon to defeat the vile ampersands from the very depths of hell itself.
Also cats.

Oh! Sorry.

~There once was a ... goddammit, forgot.~

What's this that their eyes see? Why it's a bed in an opera costume! How bizzare. Noticing them, the bed trundles up to the group and bellows, "HELLO I AM BUED THE BED I LIKE TO SING OPERA WOULD YOU LIKE TO HEAR IT" Giving them no chance to escape, it stands up on it's end, sucks in a deep breath .... and begins to recite a poem in a falsetto voice.
Who would prance in the Muckercruck Grove
And paddle among the glyyyyyyy
Who would handstand in the grand band of Mand
And blunk in the fleevish
Whhhhiiiiiiiiiiii

And with that bit of wtf out of the way, the bed falls over and dies, revealing behind it a set of railroad tracks leading to a shop! Only problem is that the ground there is inverted: the ground is the sky and the sky is the ground. How ever will you folks get down from your Inverted Sky Railroad to reach the enticing shop below? Only the Cat in His Own Fat knows!

Congratulations on surviving that long, Janet!

Happy: First ever forum game starting. I hopr this goes well...

[Rolling d8: 7]

It is an endless void filled with small floating planetoids made of a single material, whether it be soil, iron, light or flesh.

Ah, this looks interesting. A plane of isolation, of sorts. No time has passed here since the beginning; or has there been one? It is difficult to tell here.
The ultimate scientist's playground. Entire planets comprised entirely of one substance, pure, unaltered. One could mix them in any sort of way, if they liked. Of course, that is the problem. That's all there is. Just an infinite number of planets composed of infinite materials, and the void.
Quite boring, really. Why don't we fix that?

Somewhere in empty space, an anomaly occurs. Where once there was nothing there is now potantial. Endless potential, to be used for destruction, creation, or whatever the bearer sees fit to do with it. Only ...
Who are the bearers?

You don't want me imagining. Also, feel free to shapeshift but there's no guarantee of it being successful.
Post yer sheets, mateys! No player limit because that certainly won't drive me nuts.

What the hell is that game even about? Seriously I have no clue.

And what's YAFB? Do I want to know?
You At Final Boss, also known as the only minimalist RTD to run for over 200 pages and have an OOC thread also over 200 pages long. It was insane.

I generally carry a mining pick. No seriously, those thigs are kickass. They're like a spear fused with a sword.
But if you want to go dual wielding, use a whip and a hammer. Counterparts.

Havel + Elerium = ???
Wait, what does Elerium do?
