Current events
This page is for discussion of stuff related to the game coming up this week, no matter when that actually is. For instance, we can all assume Nate isnt coming for some lame reason and that Ed is sick of pizza and is bringing teriyaki or some other crap. They can post something here if that happens to be untrue.

Attendance and Food Preference
GABE: Whats on our plate this week?
BEN: Not sure. If we're doing supers, it'll be Matt, me...and Ed after 10. If we're doing OAAAA, it'll be Matt, me, and dieter...and Ed after 10pm. Either way, we're only at Quorum after 10, although I'm happy to do some OAAAA-ing with two players, I suppose. I'm good with either option.
GABE: Wow, right, I forgot I had plans, boy is my face red.
--Matts 12:16, 16 March 2009 (MST)Wow, we could do supers and finally get some quality time alone! I'll bring the candles, ben, you bring the wine... Elemental battles the high-concept villian Psychopomp in a wide-ranging exploration of the modern psyche through expository combat!
--Matts 12:59, 16 March 2009 (MST)You can translate the above as: "We can play OAAA if it means we get quorum"
ED: Sorry, plans altered. I will be on time, could even be early at 5pm or so. In for pizza again so long as it's not ridiculously expensive, what's the price of MAD za? not coming via pudge, i'm giving a talk at amgen downtown. ...forgot to pay you last time ben!!! iou $8. i think everyone else forgot as well.
Deiter, tape that shit and come be a nerd with your rpg buddies!
Matts -- Ok, lets do supers then.
GABE: Crap I'm gonna miss the big fight!
--Dieter the Bold 17:49, 16 March 2009 (MST) Sorry all, but I'm not taping the finale of the best show on TV in the last 10 years (humble opinion). I've taped it every other time, except once or twice, but not for the very last chance to see the Galactica.
Ranting and raving or other random comments
--Gdaze 13:28, 13 March 2009 (MST) Also it'd be really nice if some of you could let me know what one shots look fun, or you'd like to play. Thanks! And if none, then say that too haha!
Edmiao Hey Deiter, i just watched the "last frakkin special" for bsg and discovered that Cylon bitch #3 is played by Lucy Lawless of Zena fame. funny, i never noticed with the blonde hair, and she's a bit older now. also never watched much zena, i suppose.

Weekly Magic Whining/Complaining/Smack Talking
Next step in Super Heroes
ED: what were we doing? i forget.
GABE: Your rival is in the stock market with a huge suit of powered armor that has more guns then an NRA BBQ.
Edmiao right! can we take that on without Gabe, Noel and Deiter. ie with just Ben and I? actually, i think the last big fight we did, taking on the doping compound, was just ben and I and that went swimmingly and was a lot of fun.
Next step in Of Amor, Armor, and Alchemy
Current OAAAA XP: 75 base + 215 XP
Plans to save Danny-Girl from the dragon
These are the ones i remember.....
Fight the dragon, kill it
Lyra told us where to find the freezing Tears of _____ so we can put out the dragon's breath, right before she extinguished the eternal forge flame in our temple (bitch) by sucking its soul out like a vampire. She will help us fight the dragon. In return we agreed to let her strike the killing blow IF we successfully obtain the Tears. Other allies could also be enlisted in the fight.
Swindle all around
Talk to Grundbad, get him to fight the dragon and kill it. Also, talk to Oryxis, pledge to deliver the ruby shield in return he frees Danny-girl. Dragon dies: Danny free. Grundbad dies, danny free. Win - Win.
Deal with the dragon
Give the dragon something he wants more than Danny. Say the Ruby shield or freeing Iximion.
Dragon vs Dragon
Free Iximion, tell him Oryxis is getting up in his magic shit and doens't he want to kick the shit out of Oryxix for learning magic?
ED: Aefra is buying you all a flying carpet. should have done it last time before she lost all that cashola! she figures Aeten will carry it around for us. what a chum.
GABE: OMG I know right? Just call him a knight or student and the guy will do anything.
Aetan Finn I will only carry this carpet if it is strong enough to carry me and the rest of the auspice-bound without any diminished efficacy. (Aetan's pretty heavy)
Aefra: it can hold you big boy, if you can hold it! (str 35 magic carpet has a lift of 3200kg which means it can fly with no penalty with 768kg on board, full speed of 53 mph. with up to 1568kg on board it can fly at 44 mph)
BEN: probably worth doing the math for how much the PCs weigh: Aetan without any of his gear is probably close to 200kg. 35 should be enough for all of you, I agree, but if tithe returns it'll be a close call...
Edmiao So, say with gear: Aeten 250kg, Fantus 150kg, Aefra 100kg, Galen 150kg = 650kg; no problem full speed ahead cap'n. plus Tithe 200kg = 850kg; will slow the thing down to 44mph. maybe i'll spend the extra point to make it a bit stronger; would be nice to be able to take guests as well. or it could be fun to have it slowed down by all the weight.
