Hickory Horatio Copperbottom - I vanquish foes with my MONEY!!


Advice


5 people marked this as a favorite.

Hickory Horatio Copperbottom is a Gnome Telekineticist, whose primary unattended object to use for Telekinetic Blast is copper coins. It's cheaper than paying for an archer's ammunition, and I think it's absolutely hysterical.

To round out this theme, I've made a (very) short list of money-based one-liners he can shout as he's solving problems with his fat stacks:

-You can take that to the bank!
-You can't afford to push us around!
-Copper for your thoughts!?

My question/request for this thread is can I get some help expanding this list? I'm not planning on using a line every single time I make an attack roll, but sprinkled in at appropriate times, I feel that this could be a very fun gimmick!

For the love of gods, add "I'd buy THAT for a dollar!" to that list

The penny is mightier than the sword.
Cheese it, the coppers.
Here is your pay- off.
<.....>, to coin a phrase.
Heads or Tails?
I'll be wanting my change back.
A penny saved is...oh never mind.


These are worth every penny!

Please, keep em coming!


Can you share your build? Is this a third party class?

Penny for your thoughts!

I've got my mind on my money and my money on my mind.

Oh, and don't forget the obvious
"Shut up and take my money!"

"If it's a fight you want, it'll cost ya!"

"Tails never fails!"

"One batch, two batch, copper and gold."

"Ting!" (Mimicking the sound it makes when flicked)

"I can, in fact, spare some change."

  • The smart money is on you. And boy does it smart!
  • You two-bit hoodlum... there's a third!
  • Money up front!
  • This'll be worth every penny.
  • Money talks. And my money says you're dead!


This is blood money...all your blood to be specific
Buy yourself some healing, I gave you cold hard cash already!
I give coppers to beggars, I leaves coppers in my foes!
Your life is worth...however many coins it takes to drop you!


Oh, and let us never forget...

Consider this coin both your death and wergild for your next of kin


a bad penny always turns up
penny for your thoughts (or blood)
(on the second attack) here is my two cents worth


"For the ferryman."

Which might not work with Pathfinder canon on the afterlife. Also, I very much like this concept and this thread.


Here's the deal: the coin lands face down, you'll be squashed flat. It lands face up, you'll just break every bone in your body!

Catch you all on the flip side!

Sovereign Court

"Penny Dreadful"
"Duck! 2 pence a pound!"
"How much is your life worth? One, two, three copper is all?"
"Here is my donation to the march of dimes"
"It makes sense because it makes no cents" -abundant ammunition


Laughing all the way to the bank, baby...


Should've said something earlier. We could have flipped on it.
Now, we'll let the coin decide!

(I always post twice.)

Charon actually canonically guards the river of souls that leads to Pharasma's domain, so i guess it fits sort of.

I would suggest taking Void (Gravity) for your secondary element, it gives you both Aetheric and Gravitic Infusions, letting you really beef up that copper.

"Heads i win, tails you lose."


"Are you allergic to copper? You're having a bad reaction."


LYCANTHROPES!? You want I should use silver? What am I? Made of money?


"Squeal, piggybank, squeal!"

"Keep the change!"

On a meta level, he should be named Adam Smith. Smith was the one who coined (heh) the phrase "the invisible hand", which works on a couple levels. Alternatively, "The Invisible Hand" could be your character's alter-ego.

I'm going to count to three, and then I'm going to move the coin.


You have to ask yourself here, is it really worth finding out how many gold I just got change for, and if I make it rain, its going to rain hard...

Ahhh I thought you were attempting to correct my spelling, sorry. Unless your reply was itself misspelled, and you just yelled "butt puns" at me. I'm OK with both, actually.
