This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

I seize the bag of catfood.  "And now, mime," I say as I motion with my blaster, "go somewhere far, far away and walk against the wind.  Or something."  I shoulder the bag, take a few steps backward...then turn and stride away most confidently.

"Damn mimes," I grumble.  "One in every port."

As you stride away, the mime can be seen clutching at invisible bars and pretending to cry.

Just after you turn the corner, the mimes' smile becomes crazed...And evil. Followed by the mouthing of a (silent) prayer to He of Cruel Jokes, the White-Faced, Green-Haired one who Speaks.

Fear the wrath of an insane mime. For a mime is simply a wimpy clown...

You now have a dog-thing following you.

Make a roll to see if you get lost; don't fumble.
The main problem with government is the difficulty of pressing charges against its directors.

Given a choice of two out of three M&Ms, the human brain subconsciously tries to justify the two M&Ms chosen as being superior to the M&M not chosen.

Plus side: After meandering through the ruins, you find the Official Crazy Cat Ladies' Mansion and Clubhouse.

On the downside, one of the cats is a Venusian Dire Devilcat. Fortunately, it's asleep...Now, to get over the ornamental fence and through the door without being a cat-food delivery yourself!

The Devilcat is lazy - But not so lazy as to ignore blaster fire that scorches a random sociopathic fuzzball! With a great roar, it leaps over the fence and attacks! Man (Not Woman) Eater! It's still sleepy - But not so sleepy that it can't deal with one annoying person! 8!

Given that you went with 'Zorro with Guns', shooting seemed kind of the thing you were doing.

However, climbing...Congratulations. You manage to climb the ornamental fence. You even manage to come down the other side quickly. Mayhap a tad more quickly than you would like.

Fortunately, the grass is soft and the Devilcat does not awaken.

Reflexively Tig's eyes blaze with the strange light of alien suns, and for an instant he's surrounded by a a nimbus of light the likes of which Mr Roy G Biv could never even dream of.  Then he catches himself, snaps his fingers and says, "Tig Harpe Sings and Swings, at your service.  I'm here for the monthly Ice Cream Social."

...Why, yes...It is. And now, for its fearsome battlecry...

*MEOW!*

The Devilcat has woken. The Devilcat has inspected the premises...

...The Devilcat has seen food, in the form of an Antonio Banderas wannabe! And hey, the other...Whatever...Could be classified as 'Man'. Its probably not 'Woman', anyway...

Captain Marco Sterling now has a charging Devilcat to deal with! See the fearsome maw! Fear the fearsome claws! Fear the 5, 5, 3, 2 dice roll! Man (Not Woman) Eater 4d: 15!

Acting with all the smarts, guile and wisdom his three brains can muster, Tig launches into "Memory" in soothing three part harmony.  For music soothes the savage beast!

"Fool!" cries Marco, "You woke it up!  It's going to --"

As the devilcat strikes, Marco's blaster flashes its deadly beam!  

And my PDA sez my "Zorro With Guns" roll is a 13!
