Heroica RPG General Discussion

And what would the -mancy for tampering with dimensional gateways and portals to other Planes be? Planeomancy? Spacetimeomancy? Arthur'sfamilymancy?

Although "Familiomancy" actually sounds pretty good...but whay would that represent? Some sort of magical adoption spell?

[Scubacarrot]

All this talk about weird -mancer things, reminds me of the game dungeons of dredmor... Just take a look at the skill list: http://www.dredmorwiki.com/wiki/Skills

@Flare:

If you want to sell the Jo-No Tree Seed, I'll buy it for 50 Gold. (I doing so, I will owe you 48 Gold, but I'll pay you back as soon as I get a Mug or two on my next Quest.)

Drake clearly heard what everyone was saying. "Look, I was pretty good at fighting then. They thought that they should hire me so if some thief tried to get in, I would beat them until I saw some blood. Unfortunately, I was guarding the castle one day, when a goblin disguised as the king came riding on a horse. He asked to come in and I let him in, thinking he was the king. Unfortunately, I found out he was a goblin, and destruction followed. The disguised goblin revealed that he was the king, but he was the king of goblins. So, there I was, angry. I was angry because that idiot made me fail my duty. I ran after the goblin, hoping to kill him, when suddenly the king appeared. The goblin king stabbed the king and got his army to wipe out the other people in the castle....and the castle itself. Nobody made it out alive...except me." Drake said, sadly.

Seriously? Did you even READ the first post in the library, or, you know, the backstory for Heroica listed in the rules???

It's alright, having everyone else know the truth about the matter makes Drake's lie for a story that much more pathetic.

He really is a sad figure... (perhaps unintentionally?)

Well, at least it inspired something for that project I've been working on.

Speaking of which, if you could hang out for five minutes, that'd be awesome, I have part of it ready to show you.

Could I see, aswell?

(If it is what I think it is, I want to make sure that there are not too many redundancies between our Shadeaux-centric Quests.)

I can guarantee it won't overlap, here, this is something different.

Yes, if only because both of us don't talk much (in real life in my case, that is). We'd probably just sit around doing our own thing and interjecting a couple comments here and there.

I'd scream. Then, we'd watch all the 'Planet of the Apes' films. Then Thothwick would understand my aforementioned terror.

I love your random questions, like how I love Tanma's speeches.

Probably. Haldor would get on with most people unless he seriously disagreed with something they did or how they dealt with things.

This is hilarious.

I think me and De'kra would get along, I already have a one-sided friendship with him outside of Heroica.

Quit ignoring me! Fight, talk, do something! Why do you keep laying there! Why won't you talk to me! Why...

Aside from that the main obstacle would be my inability to separate myself from the characters I play. There is a point where I forget where I begin and De'kra ends, and it is hard to be friends with yourself. (and kind of sad) But most of the time I recognize the boundry between what humans call reality and fiction. And other times I get depressed when characters insult De'kra and have to wait to calm down before I can reply. But at least that helps me figure out how De'kra should react at points when our behaviors are parallel.

It gets really bad when I keep dying in games. I still get Legend of Zelda flashbacks, and I still am slightly scared of segmented arthropods. Help me Medli...Quill...Tetra...anyone...

...Yeah I was dying repeatively in the first dungeon, De'kra's luck in Quest 4 is actually realistic for me.

I think that he would mostly ignore me if I met Sylph in the real world. He might try to convince me to join a cult of dark druids, but I'm not involved in the same circles as those who might fall into such an organization.

[Waterbrick Down]

I guess Skrall and I might get along, I'm not sure what we'd talk about really though. I've written Skrall as someone who I would hope I don't become in the next 25 years, so I guess our conversations would be more of me listening to his reflections on life.

[Brickdoctor]

OOC: Because Rouge, as listed for your character, is a colour, not a job class. And both palathadric and Sandy seem to think Monk Pretzel is level 5, in his signature and the list of heroes.

Every time someone misspells 'rogue' as 'rouge', I can't help but think of Werewolf Mafia.

No. I would probably find him annoying after a while, even without considering the fact that he's an imp dressed like a kid going Trick-or-Treating. Also his lack of dialogue.

Because you had failed to detect the attack, you are all Surprised, and will take Free Hits before the first Round begins.

Of course! No character could get closer to my personality than Alexandre. Though that would be scary if Heroica was real.

@ Doc- You made me go back and actually try to find Admiral Ackbar or Calamari or whatever those things are in the first picture. (Sorry, not much of a Star Wars fan)

Yeah, Mon Calamari. (the name "Teuthisal", by the way, is a combination of the words "teuthida", the order of which squid are a part, and "salata", a Vulgar Latin word from which the word "salad" is derived - Phil Tippet named the Mon Calamari species after the calamari salad he was eating)

(you can see him, right? I tried to make him fairly easy to find)

I do know it was named after salad, I just forgot who.

I did find the Mon Calamari, I think I saw it the first time.... but I...

Kind of ignored it, thinking it was food or some accessory or weapon...

Yeh, I thought it was a chicken leg. Great use of the part though, Brickdoctor, I love it when existing pieces get religated to create new species. Also I just wanted to say that as it concerns the rebel "I shoot it."

And let me be the first to note that the Mon Calamari set up 'a trap'
