Let's face it. Martial artists in role playing games, starting with the 1st edition D&D monk, were based on the schlocky orientalist pulp novels of the 60s and 70s. I suppose you could even argue it started with The Shadow since he learned to could the minds of men or what have you during a vacation in Tibet. So nothing will be more fun than playing a martial artist role playing game character while spewing all the stereotypical late 60s/early 70s quotes. I don't know about you, but I am pumped to play a physad right now. QUOTE If you plant rice, rice will grow. If you plant fear, fear will grow. -Caine *gooonnng* |

Hiya Ronin - There was a comedy series in Oz called, "Fast Forward" in the 90's.
If you can, youtube the "Fast-forward Kung Fu Parody" skits - the live audience was in such hysterics they shot and re-shot and each time, they returned with new, terrible insults:) If you're playing a Phys-ad, go for that:) Oh dear god, I just saw the Skippy parodies. "Ullllhhhh, Skippy says mum's in hell doing naughty things with the devil...." Tears. Of. Laughter. -Tir |

I saw the thread title and thought "That has to be Wounded Ronin." Thanks for consistency bro. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/notworthy.gif)
