5078: Not allowed to follow through on my hollow threats of beating my players, no matter how much opportunity and reason they give me.
5078a: I did not get my cane to be a beatin' stick, it should not be used as such.

5076c: Nor Derpy Hooves or Doctor Whooves
5076d: Actually, how about no names from any children's cartoon show, ever.

Again, I re-iterate: they forbade me from doing it so I wouldn't steal any potential future thunder of theirs. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/nyahnyah.gif)

Do Freakazoid. They'll get a kick out of it, before realizing that you're half brain dead, crazy, and have NO ability to stay focused.

Slamm-O!?

No, he's grown up at least a little bit.

He's taking care of his Son, after all.

Also, Freakazoid would be a technomancer. Remember, he got his powers from being zapped into cyberspace while he was online.

That reminds me of something that never actually sat well with me. Freakazoid was such a completely different personality than his original self.

Even as a kid I didn't care about his normal-ego "Dexter" (what's with nerds being named Dexter, anyways?), I pretty much only cared about Freakazoid. Watching the series you can even notice that pretty quickly the writers themselves stop bothering with Dexter and just focus on Freakazoid instead. His entire backstory was pretty much unimportant except in the handful of episodes with Ricardo Montalban as Mister Gutierrez. Other than that he was a crazy-strong super-speedy blue-skinned goofball more interested in having fun and being bizarre than anything else, and who really mostly pulled heroics reluctantly or by accident.

...so essentially your average shadowrunner, yeah?

Most Shadowrunners named Dexter find a street name really fraggin' quick.

Try having a name like Duncan Winchester... Character was saddled with the Street Name of "Scuttle." He kind of likes it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

/Agree

Although I can't watch the show as an adult, it's too...random. I have ADD, fine, but not that badly.

I never could concentrate on Freakazoid, he didn't shift fast enough to interest...

...

Huh?

5079: I am not allowed to base a run around a blood magic ritual causing the moon's orbit to decay over the course of 72 hours and require the runners to locate and enlist the aid of a dispersed group of ancient titans with the power to undo the dread magic before the earth is smashed.

5079a: Even if I were, I am not allowed to make it logistically impossible to complete the run within only 72 hours and force the team to use a semi-stable time loop to buy themselves more time to accomplish their task.

~Umi

5080: I'm not allowed to have any form of teleportation or time travel in Shadowrun, ever.
5080a: No, not even if it involves a British Police Box.

5058b: Especially if it involves a British Police Box.

5059: i shall not make a norse tradition mage under thor and his initiation shall not be, "STOP, HAMMER TIME!"
5060: i shall not follow anything on this list because i cannot have fun anymore. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/spin.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/spin.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/spin.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/spin.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/spin.gif)

Oh

My

God.

Do want.

Yeah, that one took me until the last part of the first sentence to get.

Then I just shook my head and went, "no..."

Sort of... I think the GM had planned to have Mr. Johnson backstab us, but since my event made the run go so... well, let's just say "horribly wrong", I think he paid us in full but no extra bonus or anything [there were some extra parts to our mission, IIRC]... My character was in an all or nothing mood, since I needed to replace my truck! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/grinbig.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cyber.gif)

Don't you mean "Horribly right?" After all, you probably inflicted a few hundred grand in urban renewal on the Barrens.

You do make a good point. Always acting with the neighborhood's best interests in mind, afterall. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wobble.gif)

So that's what I should have done with that Bus.

Most of the right-thinking citizens of Seattle would probably consider you to be a hero if you started driving mobile fuel-air explosives in the form of city busses into the barrens and lighting them off.


Granted, you'd quickly have a bigger bounty than Kane's put on your head by the various underworld figures who derive their income from the Barrens, but it would be worth it.

And just think - when Kane shows up to COLLECT that bounty, you could ask for his autograph. For, um, your heirs. If he leaves any. ;D

You have to be insane to try and collect a bounty on someone who thinks of Fuel-Air Explosives as fun and games.

Besides, Kane's a pirate, not a bounty hunter. He wouldn't be able to collect a bounty without the party he's trying to collect from choosing instead to shoot him, keep their bounty, and collect the bounty on him... Which is exactly what most Runners would try if they heard a man with a price on his own head was coming after them.
