Hello all. It's entirely possible a thread like this has been made before, but in an attempt not to turn to necromancy and thus evil, I've decided to create this this one here. Anyways, the idea here is quite simple, but something that I believe could be quite entertaining and fun. I'd like to see some of your favorite quotes from your PCs.
Here are a few of my own, that I recall currently at least.
"Huh? Oh, I was just talking to myselves."
"Boop!"
"I'm a reasonable person. I do reasonable things for reasonable reasons. But you? Everything you've done up to this point, has gradually made me unreasonable; irrational even. So, I think it's time to get a little crazy, don't you?"
"Why Kalden, you're simply glowing."
Anyways, those are some of them. I may remember more in the future. Note that some stuff might (or might not) be re-purposed/reused/reconfigured for my or other people's games... but what's a bit of sharing between creative types? So what do ya got?

I have a few. I'll put the context first, if you want to read it before the thing it explains.
"Of course! You can do anything you want if you call it something different."
"Well, I'm calling it Ad-Hoc Re-Justicing, you lackwit!"
"They said a knight must learn to ride a horse. So I told them to find the biggest, strongest horse they could, and Konos would fight them. Since then, Konos & I have learned to change our tactics. I'm still never getting on the back of anyone."
"My time there had reminded me of something. I hate you, I hate myself, but most of all, I hate Mitrianity! So let's go ruin it some more!"

I was playing my Treesinger Druid, near the end of playing The Harrowing. We were all playing along with the whimsical NPCs found in the module, but at some point we had to let off steam. We encountered some enemies that weren't immediately threatening us, we all looked at each other, nodded at each other, then blasted them absolutely to hell. No surrender accepted. Felt cathartic as hell. We used things like Flame Strike, Black Tentacles, Fireball, and something else to nuke the entire place to bits.
At the end of combat, I picked up one of the bodies while in Shambling Mound form, then I decided to use my constrict ability to "squeeze the body until its eyes pop out." To the others players, I said, "I'm not evil, just spiteful." Man, we've all had it with these stupid whimsical fairytale creatures, and we really needed to let off some steam.

A gnome summoner, after using a breath of life scroll to bring back the enemy the party just killed and having his eidelon sit on the guy to make sure he wasn't going anywhere.
"Perhaps you didn't hear me the first time. We are looking for [redacted.] Are you going to give us the information, or will things become more unpleasant than they already are?"

Some background, my character was wearing a Goz Mask over her face/head, over which were worn some Goggles of Night, so her head was completely covered in a dark, foreboding appearance. And the party had made a deal with a dragon for safe passage through his part of the dungeon, as long as we brought him some trinket from deeper inside. Problem was, the trinket turned out to be the MacGuffin we had come to the dungeon to find.
Upon moving back through the dragons part of the dungeon on the way to the exit, he asked for his trinket. And we said we were keeping it. Which led to the dragon growling out, "We had a deal."
And behind her dark mask, my PC said, "I am altering the deal, pray I do not alter it any further."

old woman who's just come up to my character: "Madame, you are a friend to that paladin who saved that girl last night yes? You must hurry, your friend is in terrible danger."
my character: "My favorite kind!"
later, once we reach the friend in question and he seems to be handling it: "We were sent here to make sure you were safe. I'd be perfectly happy to save you at a later time...."
"HALT! KNOW THAT YOU STAND IN THE LAIR OF THE GREAT AND POWERFUL NESTIR. Unfortunately I am not in at the moment, I have been called out of town on important business. Please call again at a later date. Thank you for your consideration."
my character: "A bombastic one, isn't he? He shall be no match for us!"
"Are we doing well? We haven't been attacked: I'm told that's a good sign."
.....does not react to your presence at all, sitting there chewing on a rubber squeaky toy like an oversized dog.
.....when Wampa sees you have his bowl, he gets up, toddles over, snatches the bowl away, and begins slurping down the stew. ]
"Know, great beast, that you have been spared this day by your complete and utter patheticness."
no context needed:
"Yes: genies are quite tricky, even the good ones. Never give the a vaguely worded suggestion such as 'Show me what you do for fun around here'.
"I mean it was fun, but the dragon costumes were a bit much."
after a long day of investigating and not fighting anyone:
"Finally, a battle! I was almost despairing there wouldn't be any opportunities for glory today."
Then this:
Penelope looks up at you. "PUPPY!"
She immediately rushes and hugs your leg. "I'm gonna love you forever."
"I have never encountered this reaction...."
"Did he ever claim he would 'show them all'? Tales I heard in the Good planes say that those types of mortals are the hardest to keep dead...."

"Its a little too lifeless for us. Reminds me of a desert, but a lot wetter."
"Wait...so your name is "Goody Two Shoes"?
"Ya, but its not spelled like it sounds, that would be lame."
"I blasted it for 5 minutes, and nothing. Lets see if this demon SOB can take 30."

Not one of my PCs, but this happened in a d20 Call of Cthulhu game set in WWII. The PCs were the last survivors of the crew of a freighter in the Atlantic where the crew had been picked off one by one by pulsating alien "thing". It had us cornered against the rail of the bow, we were out ammo, and were just about to try to rush past it to make it to a lifeboat when a German U-Boat surfaced. My friend Dave shouts, "It's the Nazis! We're saved!".

The fighter and the Druid stand in front of every noble f the kingdom and the fighter shouts:
"Ok, who is the traitor around here".
Druid´s perception and Sense motive, natural 20 plus a lot.
"Nice, i guess we have a winner".
Follow him at night, discover evil rite in his house. Mistery solved in 15 minutes.
"That is what I call efficiency".

My Bard is at an aristocratic dinner party. None of the other PCs are in their element, but he has at least tried to bone up on what one is supposed to know for these events. The Brawler timidly asks which fork is for the salad. My Bard helpfully explains.

Had bard our group say "I wear chain-mail and carry a footman's fail, because it rhymes."
Another classic was the rogue in the party. "You never asked"
He always had the solution for everything. He was always picking pockets and the GM was note passer. So we never knew what the rogue had. Then between adventures the rogue offer to sell a scarab of golem bane to the fighter and he has 4 them. We just went through a meat grinder of dungeon with nothing but golems. So we are all like "Why didn't you tell us you had these." his response was "you never asked". He also didn't use them himself, though of them as nice trinkets he said. This was regular with him.

"I got this."
Our party Gestalt Sorcerer/Barbarian playing in the original "Against the Giants" that I tweaked for Pathfinder about 5 years ago. This was said right before two Frost Giants swung with their axes, both had critical hits, and after all was said and done, the character was reduced to -70 hit points.

Years later on a wholly unrelated mission against unrelated foes, the (newish) party was once again trounced by the enemy. My character, having happened upon the bodies of her comrades near the end of the battle, only ever saw a roiling globe of darkness (a tiefling this time). My character shouted "The derro have come for me!" and fled, only to be knifed in the back.

"Johnny, fetch my crack-pipe, it's gonna be a loooooooong night."
"Heh heh. Boom."
"All right. First, we're gonna kill these <redacted>. Then I'm going to wash their <redacted> guts off of my <redacted> face, and then, THEN we're all going to have a <redacted> drink, 'cause I just found out, I'm getting <redacted> married next week!"
"So we take them down there, let them resolve the situation, and THEN kill them?"
"Please? If I screw up one more time, they're going to kill me!"
"When I want your opinion, I'll give it to you."
"Perfectly safe!"

We were playing Rise of the Runelords and one of the PCs as a ratfolk alchemist with social issues, so he tended to seek out dark, dank places to hang out. We got to the point where Shayliss Vinder seeks out the party Paladin, Charles, and asks for his help because, "she saw a rat the size of a goblin hiding behind a barrel at the far end of the basement." Poor, gullible Charles does not Sense Motive, and gleefully runs to find this rat. Shayliss disrobes and jumps on him, pushes him down on a convenient cot while he is protesting about trying to find the rat and being oblivious as to what she intends, and the ratfolk calmly steps out from behind the crates and scampers up the stairs.
Now, every time we go to a new building and get a description of the basement, someone in the group is sure to utter, "There is a rat the size of a goblin in the basement. It seems to have been squatting here for weeks."

"We should take them outside. We would not want to dishonor this temple by shedding blood within its walls."
(long pause)
(literally the least apologetic tone you can imagine) "...Oops."

"But he only rolls threes, so let's go the other way."
** spoiler omitted **
I GMed this very episode. It is true. He consistently rolled single digits and far too many of them were 3s. Fortunately for him, the inquistor healed him every time.
Including the time that "Curiosity kills". We still talk about that adventure even though it was nearly a year ago.Goth Guru |
Spiny the gnome was forced to grow up in the streets of a human city. He tolerated the human members of the parties. He was a living Greyhawk, Keoland character. He was a fighter hearing spiked armor. One time we were chasing a human criminal through a swamp or forest or something. The crook sought refuge with some elves. Now the quote...
"You're not going to trust a human are you?"
The elves made a big show of their system of justice, and sent him back with us to be probably executed.

"He's willing now."
Said when we wanted to teleport a baddie away. My character one-handedly slammed him against the wall into unconsciousness.
Cue lots of jokes about the nature of 'willing' subjects in D&D.
"We need an idiot to go push the self-destruct button."
"Oooh! Oooh! Me! Pick me!"
This character was inordinately fond of big shiny things, like the (supposed) self-destruct button.

Playing in Rifts myself. Had a Cyberknight character facing a four armed giant. The giant in question that had the ability to grapple anyone who missed hitting him. My guy being the melee specialist got grappled. So the rest of the party starts trying to shoot the guy. The giant starts using me as a shield. Take make matters worse the giant is also beating me. Hence the term. "Put out the cyberknight. Put out the cyberknight." Wasn't amused with party afterwards.

From a one-shot the other night: we'd gotten two artifact scrolls. My warlord's was associated with Creation and Healing, while her Warmage partner's was associated with Destruction and Chaos.
Predictably, this party had no other way but the Destruction scroll to deal with swarms. So when the warpriest got attacked by an army ant swarm, her immediate response was to tell the scroll, "I really need to be on fire right now!"
It complied. She survived. Barely.

About a month ago we're slugging our way through Hook Mountain Massacre and my Ifrit sorcerer/oracle gets hit with baleful polymorph. I miss the fort save but make the will save, so now I'm playing a fire flinging bunny. Our party paladin, upon seeing this happen doesn't challenge the caster that just did this to me, no. She squeals in delight, yells out, "Bunny!!!" and rushes over to pick me up and hug me. The fight is still going on around us and our idyllkin aasimar is more excited about having a new pet.
If they hadn't needed me for the next fight I think they would have kept me as a bunny. I know our paladin wanted too.
