What confused me what I had thought Fate/Destiny was to be opposed by Freedom. I seem to recall us talking about that at one point. But, maybe I'm misremebering.
I thought Destiny being opposed by Freedom made sense due to the whole "freedom to choose your own destiny" vs supposedly being locked into whatever the universe has in store for you.

I know how to defeat Chronos....
Use STORIES... because his age gives him power... the only thing with as much age as him are stories... cmon, everyone has heard it...
"A tale as old as time... In the beginning.... A Long, Long Time Ago... and such-like"
Stories as weapons...
Officer, my husband was killed.
What happened ma'am?
He was stabbed...with a story.
Can you repeat that? Stabbed.
With a Story?
Yes. Peter Pan to be exact....

I had considered that, yes, but recently had reason to revise the list to include all of the Patrons. I felt that Luck was a better fit as an equal opposite for Fate than Freedom was. Fate and Freedom have a generally antagonistic relationship still, they're just not direct opposites.

Now you're just being silly. :P
And I already told you Kronos's vulnerability....the problem is that exploiting it would destroy everything. You need time.

Destiny and Freedom are inherently open to abuse.
"No, you're destined not to hit me."
"Rules? Nah, that's a restriction on freedom. Limits? Nope, here's a 30thlevel spell."
Just some thoughts. Wish I'd claimed Fate earlier though. Had a great idea for it. Oh well, I guess it was destined not to be. :p

Of course, I might be waaay off on what you were refering too there.
Assisted suicide. :P
Every samurai needs a Sepuku partner. ;PSepuku is actually already in my phone's dictionary, weirdly enough.

While the above complaints might be relevant, perhaps, in a normal PF game, I do believe that Lyn, DB3, FCD, and others would not let such blatant abuse of the concepts.

A donkey kick is when you kick something with both feet whilst leaning forward to do so...
Have you ever seen a donkey kick something?
It's not like he summoned one to do it...
This is what confused me. I actually thought he summoned a donkey.
>_<

wow take a day or so off and lots of posts,
well most is Champion talk so nothing to really worry me.. no comment on something that I am not a part of... (possibly thankfully at this point)
anyway I hope to have some free time soonish to actually move the temple story forward, though right now it is all real boring stuff and I am have a bit of creativity block as to what to do other than just quick summary and wait for the end of the day.

In other news, who here has LARPed? Just wondering, I don't recall if you guys have answered this before, but I'd like to know xD Its ten thousand tons of exhausting fun if you haven't....
Not me. I'm too busy hiding behind text.

You should try it anyway... its satisfying when you try to hit a troll and instead of rolling a d20 you actually try to hit the thing... xD
I absolutely believe anyone can do it... Because seriously.. I mean.. everyone there is just as nerdy as you are :D

I have never LARPed. Cosplayed, yes, but never LARP. I was going to once, but then I had a falling out with the person who was trying to introduce me to it. Didn't really help that most of that group were smokers. Ain't nothing fun enough to be worth that much asthma trouble.

Nerf makes things easy.
Get a couple nerf swords, spray em black and paint 'em whatever you want.
Short answer: No
Long answer: NO. That is a terrible idea, and those things are more dangerous than just using a stick. At least if you are using a stick you would know that getting hit with it will hurt like a sonofa***** A nerf sword is much more dangerous because it has a core made out of plastic surrounded by a milimeter of foam. You need at least 5/8" of foam in order to actually be safe enough to use any kind of force behind it. I very nearly got a broken finger from those d*** nerf swords and those idiotic people who think that they are safe and use them without warning you.

Have LARPed.
Loved it. Hated it. Mixed experience-- the hate part usually due to the 'quality' of the organization/people that play (much like any game troupe).
I've done the 'real world combat' LARPing as well. Did not like it, but I'm not a physical person when it comes to games, perfectly happy with dice and other systems-- not bean bags or similar.
Some really good quality experiences out of it though. :) I played a great villain once, got invited back to do a re-occuring character from that.
