Do you guys think I should rewrite my subscription? I think I took the 3 or 4 sentences too literally.

Well they do absorb the most damage and keep on fighting. You cut off their arms they will kick you. You cut off their legs they will spit on you. Cut off their heads and they will bleed on you.


Well, I did wait... Why no one else pointed out this Naruto shout out? Chuunin Exam Tournament, Naruto Vs. Gaara. Delivered by Naruto while crawling towards Gaara after both are down due to sheer exhaustion. I'm disappointed at you forum! ;)

I thought that was a Monty Python reference.

Yeah it's a Monty Python and the Holy Grail reference.

The Black Knight gets his arms and legs cut off in his own scene. How is this a reference to anything else?

Then there's a Naruto shout out to this Monty Python around episode 60~70 of the first series.
And I do it again, not knowing the orignal reference and only a shout out to the shout out. T_T

Oh really? I had a character about set up, but I don't have time to sit down and put him together for another few hours. Guess I just won't join. That's alright I suppose.

I don't have time to set up a character, but if you need help Xana, I can be a secondary GM who just controls some NPCs. That might give you a bit more time, since you are gonna be busy trying to run two RPs.

Aw, offensive magic is limited to squishy wizards? That totally sucks, man. (Kidding, of course.) Still, these spells seem kinda limited. I assume that as you level up, you gain more control over your abilities?

On a different note, what happens if we decide to take a penalty to a certain ability or field of study? Do we get an extra? Does the one we already have get a boost?
So, apparently I'm the sanest madman this side of the international date line. Seems legit.

Didn't start yet. I think Xana is about to post/PM whoever gets to play.

Oh good.

Yeah I recieved a PM telling me I was one of the people who'll be in the RP... PMed back slightly worried that it had been too long and I'd be cut out. :oops:

I guess those who were picked are just playing the waiting game, now?

Yup. Just wait until Xana set's up the roleplaying thread and we're good to go. Though he'll probably wait untill everyone confirms the PMs.

I confirmed, but it's stuck in my outbox. Oh well. Maybe I should think up some more backstory for my character. :P

That's normal, it'll be stuck until he gets online.

Also, no real need, I think. You can develop your character over the roleplay, no need to think up everything now.

Yeah, but if I want to stay consistent, then I like to have some idea of what happened. :D No idea if it will stick.

Congrats on the new RPG! It sounds sufficiently creepy and horrifying! :D
The voices in my head tell me that we saved the world. However, they also told me that George Clooney's face is on the dollar bill, so... meh. The voices are more fun, anyway.

Xana just for clarification, are psychics able to communicate with people through thought in this?
