We finally get a chick and it's a frickin' egg laying bird. Very funny, Vale. Very funny.
Well, maybe there was some truth to the earlier comment about us eating the first female we meet. Tastes like chicken baby.

lol; I just realized that my toons name is a reference to a Sonny Chiba martial arts movie; where he as a guy who would comb his hair before a fight; then snap the comb in half; the sound of my characters name would ensue; then he would kick serious booty. how weird is that....

It's also used in that Ferris Bueller song.
And it's a pun.
Great name.

@mwbeeler-
I decided to take you up on your earlier offer of adding the Psion/Wiz levels. I'm going with the psicrytal. Despite this character's refusal to rely on 'others' and disdain for manufactured items, technically, as the Psicrytal is a fragment of his own personality, he is relying on himself, even if it is something that can be taken away. (And, disturbingly, it will be the one 'true' friend that he has ever had!)
And, the chance to do scenes where he is seen arguing with himself is just too good to pass up!
So, Psicrystal. When he wakes up and realizes that it's not there, he's gonna be,... perturbed. :)
This is gonna be fun! Updating character.

Well, I couldn't possibly tell you how interested I am in finding out why you needed an even number, and what 'reciprocity' means.
And just in case we find ourselves in bad straights, I just want the rest of you to know that I won't hold it against you for eating Aso. I hope we can all sustain the same detachment, because you may be Aso's next meal too.

I’m sure the even number is somehow tied up with the “reciprocal” theme … and I’m sure Beeler has some grand, crazy, cool idea he’s looking forward to subjecting …uh, treating you guys to. (I’m guessing it will be along the lines of being paired up with – or paired off against – each other…)
Seriously, this guy is a creative, cool and crazy (in a good way) DM, you guys are in for quite a game I would imagine.

But I always pictured it as the sort of game where you make two characters, because, well... someone's gonna die.
James alluded to it earlier in the discussion. The original set used to play with a “Stable” of three characters that gained a fraction of xp as you did. You knew you were going to bite it, so you had a character ready to go when the inevitable occurred.
By the way, arcane casters: If you want to do something you shouldn’t be able to do (eschew materials, eschew xp, free metamagic, recover spells); just ask, and I’ll make it hap’n, cap’n!.

Playing. 'Serious'. Character.
Must. resist. joining. 'Pun-fight in the OK corral'.
Ooooo,... missed it by THAAAAT much!
:D
hey Serious, I cousin is a bird named RoeBuck; you should start a merchant company with her; you could call it Serious and RoeBuck; has possibilities :)

Die? what..uhm, we are uhm...not uhm...immortal? Guess that explains the lack of gear; lol :) its all good.
I am really curious what storyline your gonna hang out to get us all together; looks like a challenge to me; didnt really make this chick to be all gladatorial with other players hehe.
Seiously other team members; do you want me to keep my impoved init or shall I drop it for something else; with group init; with it I give a +10 init bonus; without it the pokey sticky rouge gives +8 which is still pretty good; I been heming and hawing over whether to change it to a fighter type feat.
GM: any advice on my favored enemy; something that will fit into the game; I dont remember what enemies are in dark sun, but I remember that they were very different from other games.

My thoughts on the initiative thing is this....if we are boosted more of us go before our foes so having a bunch of PCs with improved initiative is a good thing. We all share one roll but with people going at +10,+8,+7, all the way down to 0 or negative initiative modifier will mean that even if a foe rolls fairly high there is a good chance that one of us can react before it does. The more that do, the better.
My thoughts.

This simple, innocuous statement ranks right up there with,
"No Luke, I am your father. Join me, and we shall rule the universe together as father & son!"In other words, it sounds like an invitation to the Dark Sun,...SIDE! to me!.
:D
Somehow, all the hardcore third-shift posters ended up in the same pbp. I fear for our sanity (well, I would…).
Yeah, I'm fairly certain that we would need to have some sanity left in the first place before you can be worried about us losing it!
See? No worries! ;P

No way did you just bring math into this thread...
I meant to have the starter post up by now, but my wife had cabin fever bad and needed some alone time, so my son and I went down for a long nap. Going to run and grab some staple items and some Boston Market, then I'll have the post up before bed. ETA ~3 hours.

I take it we have no spells memorized either?
I quibbled a bit, then decided I’m fine with you starting with spells. You just had no desire to use them on the trip. No material components, though.
Way passed my bedtime now, will catch up tonight! :)
