[Cube]

Wait, what's a cinematic mage?

Cinematic Tradition.

Instead of a tradition based on a religion, his tradition is based on movies.

He summoned John McClane once.

His reagents are popcorn and VHS tapes.

I think one of his foci might be an Oscar.

[CanRay]

That is just too cool for words!

Oh, did John have shoes on? And did he use a car to kill a gyro-drone because he was out of bullets?

Time Bandits, 1981.

Ah, yes, that's right.
Very strange movie.
(Wizards is likely stranger still.)

I would have guessed Charisma. I'm actually curious as to how the tradition works in terms in magical theory. Does the magician see magic as a manifestation of alternate fictional realities? Or is just some pink mohawk fun? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/grinbig.gif)

Pink Mohawk fun. He's a movie lover who happened to Awaken, so he based his tradition of the movies he loved.

[Makki]

I'd give him Delusion "this's all just a movie"

[Cube]

I'd give him Delusion "this's all just a movie"

He's actually a Special Effects Artist, but he does lean heavily on the fourth wall at times.

[pbangarth]

I'd give him Delusion "this's all just a movie"

The Buddhists have that angle wrapped up.

[Cube]

We've gone from incestuous orks to my mage's tradition?

[Stahlseele]

it's not that far of a jump.

[Xahn Borealis]

You brought it up.

He's actually a Special Effects Artist, but he does lean heavily on the fourth wall at times.

I smashed a bowling-ball sized hole in the fourth wall one game session.

Just because the PCs are a bunch of anti-social bastards who shoot people in the face for money doesn't mean they like abusive relationships.

I've an active char at the mo in an EP game who lost his fourth wall in a egocasting malfunction. See link sig for an example. The history of it is that after Three tried to have a dance-off with Jackson, he shortly introduced me to the floor. He got his comeuppance when the player had to leave for a Star Wars game somewhere else, so we had to find some way to remove his character from play. So, after I critically failed on a Perception Test, I spaced him. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

I can't believe nobody's said it yet.

"Movie Magic."

[Xahn Borealis]

I was trying to avoid it.

[tagz]

A fun line at a session once.

Setup:
One member of the team is going to create a distirbance so the rest of the team can make their escape from the building. Tony Hez, a chromed cyber-addict, enters the lobby and approaches the first guard he can, before crossing through the MAD scanners, etc.

Tony Hez: "Excuse me guard, can you help me with a problem?"
Guard: Gruffly exhales, trying to mentally prep to try an intimidate the metal monster, and quickly blurts out "WHAT?"
Tony Hez: Quick Draws his Ares Predator into his face. "It's my gun... It's got TOO MANY BULLETS!"


We're now playing Ghost Cartels and wrapping it up. At least once a session, at the best possible time, SOMEBODY will say in their best Rick James impression" "Tempo's a hell of a drug." It's sort of become the story's tag line.

[Sixgun_Sage]

Finally got to play again and Des and the new crew have finally located the first member of those that go "Boom" in the night, Tank Girl in an Azzy facility, they've been trying to turn her in to a sleeper agent with little success. By this point the new guys have gotten a bit of polish, Hellion is a truly scary mage, and Slam has turned himself in to a mobile weapons platform with hardcapped augmented strength he uses to carry a "backpack" armory


Tank Girl: "Never thought I'ld be so happy to hear that drawl shouting orders Des, noow where are my babies."

Des: "Sorry, those were not recoverable darlin' but we did get paid in trade with some very nice russkies, let the woman check your pack."

Hellion: "Damn girl, I'm impressed, the stuff they were doing to you and you're lucid?"

Tank girl looks the mage over and shakes her head before speaking: "You've had to deal with the cowboy for how long and you think the brainbenders stood a chance, chica? Now can we start killing our way to the extraction point? I'm cold, dressed in underwear, and covered in blue goo. These fraggers have to pay."

Des: "That reminds me..."

One lightning fast grope, and a less than usually enthusiastic slap later they are headed to make some guards former.

[Xahn Borealis]

I love this guy ^ (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Des is a fun character, kind of a strange mix of Captain Jack Sparrow and every Clint Eastwood gunslinger, when he isn't being a goofy, chaotic lecher is when the baddies should worry. Seriously, he has attribute boost with a geas on being serious.

[CanRay]

But is the rum gone? And is he going to shoot up a whole town over that fact?

[MK Ultra]

Player´s at home (a nice little house in the elven district), someones knocking at the door ... very loud. He goes to the door-vidfone and answers, seeing a Troll in some kind of uniform, hiding a big baseball club behind his back - in the background are more Trolls with uniforms.

Elf PC *uncertain* : Yes?

Troll *slightly annoyed* : Open the door!

Elf PC *confused* : Why?

Troll *more annoyed* : Open the door, we want to sell cookies!

Elf PC *defensive* : No thank´s, I don´t need any cookies.

Troll *angry* : YOU OPEN THE DOOR NOW!!! *basches the door with the club*

Elf *also angy* : No, go away!

At that point the Trolls recognized that their clever ruse had been found out and shifted to plan B (break in). The Elf called the cops and the trolls left after a very short melee, when the PC swaped his stave for a roomsweeper.

Since then, the most famoust quote in our round is 'Open the door, we want to sell cookies!'
