If you're one of the people that just complains 90% of the time in this thread, this thread might not be the thread for you.

I love the one where you set the thing on fire and it runs away. Near a room full of promethium, a large mutant beast was set aflame... and then ran into a wall and became Inquisition Fried Mutant.

[QUOTE=Alxnotorious;44534483]Looks like a Dwarf Fortress combat log.[/QUOTE] Dwarf Heresy needs to be a thing.

That feeling when you're inches away from being excommunicated as a cleric only two sessions into the campaign Even though I clearly had a divine meeting that was not in any way possibly a hallucination or some kind of deception where my deity clearly proclaimed me and one of my other party member's to be born of her Of course said party member has decided to THROW ME UNDER A BUS

I need help with creating a backstory. What would events could cause a Minotaur to become a rogue?

alcoholism

[QUOTE=Mellowbloom;44536357]alcoholism[/QUOTE] I told my GM this and we both started laughing. He said it must be pretty dark alcoholism.

[QUOTE=Alxnotorious;44536374]I told my GM this and we both started laughing. He said it must be pretty dark alcoholism.[/QUOTE] I wouldn't underestimate the devistating effects on a person substance abuse inevitably has, even something as "safe" as alcohol.

He figured out sneaking through Labyrinths is way more fun than guarding them.

[QUOTE=Alxnotorious;44536323]I need help with creating a backstory. What would events could cause a Minotaur to become a rogue?[/QUOTE] Living in a labyrinth, you get bored. This particular minotaur was interested in mechanical things - particularly, the challenge represented by locks and lockpicking. Then, one day, the treasure he was guarding (as minotaurs are always guarding stuff) was stolen (because adventurers are always stealing shit). Rather than live the rest of his life disgraced and ostracized from minotaur culture, he decided to simply go steal it back. And so he did. The plan worked fine. Brought the treasure back in one piece, the thieves got eaten. But he had a taste of adventure, and could no longer stand to be a mere labyrinth guard. And so he became a rogue, adventuring for the sake of adventure.

So I rediscovered Warhammer Quest the other day, got massive waves of nostalgia watching it get played out. Anyone else remember it?

[QUOTE=MakoSkyDub;44550309]You could still gm for us I was really looking forward to that ![/QUOTE] I find it hard focusing on any project for the length a game would take, especially in my current condition.
