Light speed legs, omg!  That's beyond the Monty Hallest of finds in any rpg ever! lol
Lovely little be careful what you wish for moment, though.

Needless to say, Squirrel Girl never really got what we were doing and didn't come back, but Taylor stayed without her, he was a very pretty man, so I was pleased 

I'm trying to remember all the horrible things that were included in a Deck of Many things we once ran across in a ADD kind of game - one was that your character was now and forever the pit boss in a seedy Reno casino c 1955 (unless someone blew a wish spell to get you back, of course).  Pulling card from that thing was like a drug - someone just HAD to do so every so often - just to see what weird shit would happen.

Oh! I remember! one was a permanent bad hair day. and one was "Dove skin" obviously created after subliminally effected by tv commercials

Oh yeah.. this fucking guy. Wanted to try all the "brooding badass" anime tropes... but sorry omea. This is the barrens. You try this emerge from the shadows drawing down on someone with little pea shooter, better make sure the troll with a shotgun he uses to duck hunt armored drones knows your playing.

Least then he will leave something that can ve buried in a casket and not a watertight jar.

4 times this happened. He became the walking ammo refill. Always went for the million nuyen option and bought top grade stuff... then got smoked. I didnt let the crew get all he had, damaged in gun fire, ect, but he got nicknamed easter, cause you got at least a few goodies.

Eventually he quit after finally bringing him in proper, and finding out payday was 2000 split 5 ways.

"My dude has almost a million dollars in cyberware! Why woukd he take pay that low!!"

... cause you have a million dollars worth of cyberware that needs tune ups,  rent on your home (if he had bought one. Expected other pcs to just give him one of theirs..) the need to eat, and a complete lack of streetcred to get a job that will pay you more then the price of a blowjob from a ghoul.

"WELL if we arent going to get paid more i quit. Lets go." In RL Gets up, looks to group waitingnfor them to come.. rest of the table stares at him blankly as they.. well... Hate him.

Thst was a satisfying day...

[ROOTless]

Sounds .... depressing, yet satisfying?

Try being the only female in a group with a player who thinks his character is fricking Tom Jones or Cassanova.

[Capt_North]

Less depressing, more annoying, and EXTREMELY satisfying.

And zone... had something like that. Least one guy in exalted game. Playing a lunar and this guy decided, on his own, she was his abyssals soul bond thing. Decided to push the issue and try and force it ic...

Well, lets say it didnt goe well for him... he was also this dark brooding "hero" type, but some reason had apperance 8, which is stupid high, and poorly spent his points. I on the other hand, had a concept for my chqracter, trickster in training. And i spent minimal points in that stuff. Cause i wanted her to actually be training.

Where did those points go..?

Into the ability to beat an abyssal exalted in super heavy soulsteel platemale to a bloody pulp with her (not quite, she had enchanted metal tattoos) bare hands. Took all his fancy arifact gear, and renamed him "hollow bloody sphincter" to comemorate the occasion.

That was satisfying.

I have seen that. It was cringe worthy.
You have my sympathies, for what little that's worth.

I thing I'll embroider a pillow with the line one of the guys gave me when I first joined a gaming group (the only girl, of course) "You're the only girl some of these guys have ever seen. "

[ROOTless]

... I can only hope that that was never true.

Except for the pillow bit, that's neat.

Moonsilver Tattoo Artifact Smashfists I assume?
Or were they Razors?

Haha! Called it on first go. Got them in hand and foot style, add in high strength, some good damage boost charms, perfect defense...

And you have one very embarassed abyssal that nobody likes bitching about how all his gear got stolen. ... and how its totally unfair cause he wasnt going to take anything from her... just... you know, rape her. Quickly after he was canned so hard it caused hydrogen fusion and game only lasted bit longer before dude in charge got called up for tour in marines

[ROOTless]

That ... happens.

[Capt_North]

thankfully not often.

though been pretty dry on games sense. played a good long 40k one, but it petered out after a while when GM got worn out from trying to herd 2 groups of players, about 6-7 each, many of them asshats, in a semi connected story. We ran for like.. almost 2-3 years, and had fun, but totally understand why he got burned out. But since then we have only done mini stuff, which while fun, isnt quite the same as planning up an ambush working together as opposed to battling each other out...

[ROOTless]

Which version of the 40k RPG(s)?

And no shadowrun at all for years, I assume?

[Capt_North]

Fantasy flight, Only War. With some things from the other systems mixed in, but only minor.

Fun as hell game, though all the other players were retired military, and im just a filthy civie. Still fun as hell, my dude was pretty much a warboy from madmax, and come to repair and driving rolls, the omnissiah loved his ass. Though tech priests hated him.

Feats include,
Repairing busted chainsword.

Repairing busted chimera that had been religated to source for scrap.

Hijacking a traitor chimera from the middle of their base.

Repairing a broken plasma gun tech priests had written off. (And of course, couldnt find any ammo for it beyond first plasma flask)

Repairing firing systems on a busted baneblade.

And... the crown jewel...

Repairing a 4000 year old broke. Power field shield device he found on a space hulk. Had several extras for parts and to study, best quality tools, and a very nice 001 on a d100. (Lower the roll the better)

GM was shocked, tech priests were amazed, magos blue screened. Good times. Good times.

One annoying thing was gm didnt beleive in giving people gear upgrades. So at one point we are fighting plague marines, and here is my dude with an empty plasmagun... and a shotgun. Against nurgled up marines in power armor.

Smaller threats it was effective, but moment theres decent armor... nope.

...

And i gotta go. Brain melting down, dumbass bitching that "people trying to do their jobs right is whats wrong with this economy!!".

This said to bus driver, who expected person to pay to get on the bus.

[ROOTless]

Sounds like a fun game!
