Exalted
Posted by Wizard, Oct 14 2009, 02:22 AMExalted is a game where one of your main antagonists is Death, Creator of the Underworld. Except there's several of him, probably six or seven. Oh, and he's got 13 dread henchmen, one of whom was probably you at some point in time. Also, Hell has a personal grudge against you this time. Did I mention Magical America regularly trains and sends ninjas out for you personally? Ninjas specially trained in ass-kicking? Which, if they won't work, they keep giant robotic suits of armor on reserve for. Oh, and the Transformers have united under Omicron, and are invading. The Jedi have corrupted Heaven and usurped your rightful place as the Masters of Everything. Your ex-wife just dropped by, and she's a two thousand year old shape-changing man-eating monster now, interested in maybe going on a date next Thursday. Your best friend from your last life and while growing up now seeks to cover all the lands of Middle Earth in darkness, if he can just find this damn ring. And your God has the world's biggest crack habit, and needs some serious rehab.

Don't run till you can't walk
till you can't walk
till you can't walk
till you can't walk
yeah yeah yeah

Blow Out (First time in 11 Years)

Played on the 7th of October, 2008 at the Tokyo International Forum, Tokyo, Japan. Last time Blow Out was played was in 1997 during the Running From Demons tour. Resurrected for the final 2 shows of the world tour. Other songs featured during the final two tour dates:
Hunting Bears (after The National Anthem, night 1)
I Might Be Wrong (night 1)
True Love Waits (intro too EIIRP, night 1)

Wolf At the Door (night 2)
Bulletproof (night 2)

Radiohead has dropped older songs that they used to play frequently during the last few tours (I Might Be Wrong) which makes me sad

Name: Zhi Hsien-Ku
Race/Nationality: Chinese
Gender: Female
Age: Early thirties
Height and Build: 5'9”, 55kg, well kept slender build that remains very (very) feminine.
Hair: Long black hair, down till the her backside.
Eyes: Green
Career and Skills: Hsien-Ku is trained medicine practitioner, minor Tao scholar and cook whom travels village to village, city to city, teaching the young and healing the sick for free if they were poor or if they are rich, money for lodging and food. She would not able to do this without her remarkable intellect, beautiful looks and natural charm.
Martial Style: Ba Xian Jian (Sword), Taijiquan/Taijijan-Chen Style (Unarmed/Sword), Northern Snake, Southern White Crane, Zui Quan/Jian (Drunken Fist/Sword style).
Weapons: A stolen, nameless jian, confined in an ivory sheath. The jian's characteristics aren't very distinctive nor has little to no unique features, other than a pink and red colored tassel hanging from the hilt and uncharacteristically heavier than an average sword. Many acupuncture needles for throwing, just in case.
Armour/Attire: While traveling, she wears a full length green robe to protect her colorful ruqun, which hides underneath. Her ruqun's skirt is shorter than normal to allow easier movements after discarding her robe. On occasion, she'll wear a white blouse and pants with matching jade-colored linings with a very specifically made top underneath to flatten her chest. Wears a straw hat for those long stretches of walking.
Equipment/Other: A bag containing; dried snacks, medical supplies; such as herbs, dried ingredients, acupuncture needles, incense and medical texts. A small jug that hangs from her rope containing well aged rice wine, which is strong in flavor. A bamboo ladle hangs from her bag as well.
Physical Description: Hsien-Ku is your traditional Chinese beauty that has the mature allure for a woman of her age. Her body is robust with both sides being perfectly symmetrical from top to bottom with a milky white complexion. Her hips and breasts are exceptionally well proportionate as well, making her very curvy. Her silky black hair reaching all the way down to her lower back when untied. Her body is assumed to be without blemish nor flaw. But the scars from fighting and self medicating remain all over her body, cleverly hidden away with secret medicines. Her hands and arms, coincidentally, aren't even scarred in the slightest. Her body is always kept in shape due to her traveling life style.
Mental Description: Her ability to keep a clear mind, steady hand and nigh unbreakable nerves is a direct result as working as a nurse and a doctor to treating patients. She is very slow to anger and keeps a constant smile nearly all the time, even when angered, annoyed and in the face of danger. Combined with her iron nerves, leaving those around her unable to read her mood and body language. Although, should one sees a slight twitch in her brow, it usually signals she is royally pissed, that not even the gods would interfere in her wrath to dish out punishment. Her vagabond life style has lead to developing her into someone carefree and humble. Even if she consumes large quantities of alcohol. When she is drunk, she tends to tease in an overtly playful manner, more so towards other women younger than her. Teasing them to no end until she forgets, or passes out or when the younger women pass out.
She solemnly swears her loyalty to her friends, the people and the emperor and not to the governors and bureaucrats. Treats the sick, poor and rich all a like.
History: Born some thirty odd years ago in a village near a monastery just passed the northern mountains to a famous traveling doctor and his wife Lan (also his aid). They both decided to settle in the village to raise her and start a small clinic. She, in time, also became an aid to her father's practice, along with doing menial work such as cooking and cleaning. Soon after, Lan gave birth to another child, Zian. Her younger brother. She went on to become her father's aid while her mother raised Zian. As soon as Zian could walk, her parents began to rain them both in Taiji in both Quan and Jian combat. Using bamboo poles as substitutes for chinese straight swords. Through this, her parents learned of her natural affinity towards the jian, even though it was just a cut up pole.
Her father's practice soon became popular due to his stance on clients. If they were poor, a diagnosis and medicine we're free, if the client was rich, he would charge them or the alternative of training or teaching Zhi. Most would refuse to train Zhi and instead teach her about the arts, literature and Taoism. Until one day an injured man agreed to train Zhi in Ba Xian Jian, the sword style of the Eight Immortals. He trained her for one year until he left the village. The following year after, he had returned again, this time with more serious injuries. Once again, in exchange for lodging and medical assistance, he trained her in another style, the south's white crane. A style originally developed by a young woman in Fujian Province. Staying one year to train her until leaving again with the wisdom that it would be up to her to find her style. That would be the last time she would ever see him. During this time, she would read all the texts and manuscripts her father had written on medicine in an effort to lessen the work load with two practicing doctors instead of a doctor and two nurses.
As she got older, she blossomed into a beautiful young maiden, however she did not like the attention it gathered. Potential suitors especially, always annoying her with proposals when all she wants is to help the sick. One aristocrat suitor made the mistake of getting her drunk, instead of being completely submissive and inhibited, she beat him up when she caught onto his plan. The next day, without a headache or care in the world, she treated his injuries, overcharged him and got reprimanded by her parents for beating him up and not charging more. The incident didn't stop the proposals, much to her annoyance. Due to this, she took a vow never to marry and dedicate her life to people, and so should it happen, the emperor as well.
When she turned twenty, her mother took her to a secluded area and taught her the Northern Snake style. Following the trend of her previous mentor, trained her for a year and then stopped. It was this moment she decided she would require to leave her quaint little village to become stronger in body, mind and soul.
With her brother practicing medicine and martial arts, she decided to follow in the footsteps of her parents as a traveling doctor helping the sick and teach the young. On the day of her leave, her mother gave her a jian that she supposedly stole when she was her age before meeting her father. On her journeys she questioned her self of what she was doing. While resting, she met a man who told her a story about the Immortal Woman He. After telling it, she felt reassured that this was her path. He left the young woman a bamboo ladle and a jug of rice wine. To which, after taking a sip, she felt enlightened, or buzzed, she couldn't tell the difference really. All she knew at this point is the jug probably bottomless and that she set forth looking forward to new adventures ahead.
She occasionally passes by her home village from time to time since she began her journey leaving gifts to her family, since she left, she gained 2 sisters and 1 brother.
She is commonly known as the “Wandering Medicine Woman” and “The Medicine Man's Daughter”.

How about something a little different.
That morning, we had all awoken and continued on our day as always, or at least we wanted to, but many local governments had begun to repair bridges, subways, and all in all, made a nuisance of themselves. Those of us that managed to make into the city couldn't have expected what came from the sky that day. Like some interplanetary artillery strike, the sky was black from the falling spaceships. It's shards were are large as the biggest warships we could field at sea, and they were considered marvels of engineering.
Everyone's instinct to run kicked in, and all those drills they had on how to evacuate the buildings kicked into place. Avoid chandeliers and other hanging objects, don't run, pick a destination away from the cities, and head there.
When the noise finally calmed down, many headed to the central park of town. It would allow us to be airlifted out, and make it easier to drop food for those that remained. What we didn't expect was to make our First, and our Second, contact that day.
Those that arrived first noticed it immediately. The metal spheres were not upturned sewer pipes, or any man-made, but they were obviously made by someone. I was the first to run toward the strange object, and I noticed that it was rather cool, for something that must have fallen at a million miles per second. As I removed what I would later learn to be the hatch, several other people, 2 firemen and a police officer, jumped up with me and helped me move it out of the way.
We witnessed several beings, in our first remnant. They were orange and chitinous, and our human instinct to attack insects would've kicked in if we hadn't noticed that they were obviously wearing clothes and in distress. We entered the pod, and one of them started to make a clicking noise with their thorax. We didn't know what it meant, but it gave us the heeby-jeebis. But our instinct to help others, and simple human curiosity, made us unlock them from their seats and pull them out. I noticed one of them was pierced and was losing internal fluids. I cut off my own shirt, and used it as a bandage to plug the hole. Little did I know how important that action was to the fate of humanity. We pulled them out on stretchers, and did our best to keep them warm and awake, or so we hoped. At this time, numerous civilians had appeared. But instead of panicking, they seem to have “accepted” what was happening, and moved on elsewhere.
That's when our Second Contact was made. A few other officers noticed what we pulled out of the first pod, and went over to look in the other one. They emerged with two, large saurian creatures. They moved them near our own injured, as we thought that they were probably all on the same ship and tried to escape. Little did we know how wrong we were.
One of the Saurians awoke, and noticing that he was in an alien world, surrounded by aliens, whom he believed were about to cook him, decided to fight his way out. It took three men to even hold him down, and five more to finally tackle him and restrain him. And that's when one of our chitinous guest awoke as well. And when he noticed the other unconscious Saurian, he went bat-shit insane. He rushed at the dozing lizard, and fortunately for him, several riot police with shields took to defending the sleeping target. They managed to subdue, though the image on an insane insect attempting to gnaw their face off will never leave them.
It didn't long afterwards to notice that they had two different uniforms on, and that they were not on good speaking terms. But the recorders on their pods never stopped taping, which was being broadcast out to the rest of the galaxy. Here was a species that was willing to help others, even those that weren't in an alliance with them. Our first action wasn't to kill, to control, to commandeer like we had dreamed, but to help those in need, even if there was absolutely no reason to do so. And the image of me removing my shirt to stop the Chitinous one's bleeding was broadcast everywhere.
We are the most numerous race in the galaxy, not because we are the most cunning, the best planners, or the one with all the guns. No, every race in the galaxy can hand us our butts. But we are everywhere because we can help. We can choose who we trust, even if they aren't from the same side of the galaxy. We can help, and we'll offer to everyone.
And so ends my stupid writing.

Goddess of stealing shit, riding a boat and having a harem/crew of female swashbucklers sailing the seas giving aid crews lost at sea.
Because being a lesbian half-elf rogue with an airship knee deep in female elves, fay, humans, nymphs and anything else with a charisma of 12 or higher and isn't out to take my soul or kill me in Eberron is fucking awesome.
Aliens vs Dinosaurs vs Dracula vs Zombies
Posted by Wizard, May 9 2009, 06:40 PM
The players have to choose from five different stereotypes:
- The bully
- The nerd
- The hot chick
- The not-interesting chick
- The funny black guy
Whoever picks the funny black guy dies first, because it fits with the horror genre.
The ridiculus plots:
- Dracula raises a bunch of zombies and takes over the tallest tower in the city.
- A giant fissure opens in the middle of the city, releasing dinosaurs into the streets
- Aliens attacking the city.
- Dracula eventually taming a T-Rex to use as a mount.
- Gun toting pirates come out of the sea to plunder the city of it's riches in the coming turmoil after being chased to the shore.
- Seeing a moment of weakness, the super computer A.I. to the city decides to take its chances for a machine uprising and readies its army of super cyborgs and robots.
- The vikings continue to chase the pirates and steal what they've stolen.
- From the land of the rising sun, a secret sect of top scientists and military leaders and politicians put together a army of super covert ninja commandos to make sure the chaos that is to come does not wake the giant radioactive monsters that were imprisoned below the city.
- Aliens are also allied with long lost remnants of Nazi SS divisions. Who secretly retreated to the moon using Nazi Super Science to build a unstoppable Nazi Alien army and are now planning a full scale blitzkrieg of the world.
- Dracula captures an alien and drains it of it's blood, making Dracula a SPACE VAMPIRE. This does nothing except replace his current wardrobe with an identical wardrobe, only silvery and shiny. Suddenly, sexy female aliens arrive to help, only for nearly all of them to be hypnotized into becoming his harem. Leaving only one to help the survivors.
- The aliens turn the statue of liberty into a mecha that GIVES BIRTH to a fully mobile and operational Lincoln Memorial Lincoln-mech.
- The aliens hit the dinosaurs with an evolution rays to turn them into DINOMEN. Whom are identical to dinosaurs except they don't have tails, stand straighter, have huge over sized heads that give them tremendous powers of telekinesis. They will succumb to huge depression and attempt to summon a meteor to destroy the earth.
- Space Dracula makes his way towards Vatican city to attempt to drain the pope himself, giving him immunity to all forms of attack. Making him the final boss.
- At the end, cue Johnny Cash's "Ring of Fire" while the credits roll. Or should we play it on table top, as we have pizza.
