I'd think Mighty Deeding his mouth might ease the pain a bit more...

Judge: the specter reaches out and chokes Gemini for four points. Opposed STR check to break free.

Player: She takes the four points of damage, but she kinda likes it.

Player2: is that gonna be party knowledge?

Player2: Hey don't worry about it! Its only going to have an effect on me....mostly.

From Doom of the Savage Kings
The party had just found hounds lair and half the party was climbing down a rope. The other half were topside so I have the hound divebomb straight down.
PLAYERS: WTF!?!? That's. Not fair you never said he could fly! He doesn't have wings on the cover. How the hell are we supposed to fight this thing? This can't be a level one adventure.

[Rostranor]

Prison Inmate Zero Level Funnel:

"You have a longsword? You are now Prison King, we will follow you, but you have to fight."

Two encounters later.

"Damn! Prison King is Dead! Who else has a STR bonus to hit? You do? All Hail new Prison King."


And thus both my joy of the game and an understanding of medieval history has grown.

[cthulhudarren]

I dislike it when characters are talking numbers. They should be asking "Who here is strong?" rather than "Who has a STR bonus".

Judge at today's (August 29th) DCC game: "I'm disappointed at your psychotic outrage"

That's become one of my favorite mercurial effects. My party's wizard has in combination with Read Magic. Last session ended when he used Read Magic to interpret some runes on an ancient battleaxe and promptly fell asleep. Great cliffhanger, that he role-played as follows: "I can read these runes! I know what they say! Zzzzzzzzzz."

From the G+ Metal Militia Game:

Judge: Riding the crest of the tidal wave the boat you are on begins to go faster and faster as the music fills the air around you.

Player: My halfling gets on the prow of the boat, draws his short sword and plays air guitar to the rocking music.

Judge: Ok. you go FULL windmill!

[Skars]

That was awesome; I loved Optimo's performance in the "Mosh Pit" with those scaly lil Yellow buggers as well. Nothing like the two handed salad shooter to make short work of a bunch of "Stryper" fans.

[Rostranor]

Player 1: Cleric! Are you going to do something to help!?

Player 2: Are you kidding me? I just beseeched my deity for Divine Aid and it was granted. What more do you want?

Player 1: All I heard were a bunch of empty promises you are never going to be able to keep!
