How did Sarge get four mithril shards?

Ugh. This is, like, SOOO annoying. I just bought this new pickaxe, it's, like, totally fab. Now, it's not like I care about you people or whatever, but I got to say something or whatever. I have this, like, role, or something. I thought about the best way to, like, deal with it, and I figured this is it, okay? Whatever. So apparantly I'm, like, the Village Scapegoat. Because some of you people, apparantly, don't like my attitude, or like, whatever, whenever I am investigated, and by the way, if you investigate me, You. Are. A. Creeeeeep. But anyway, ugh, when that like, happens, I turn up as a Coyote or whatever. Even though I am, like, totaaaaally part of the Village.

Confirmed!

Stories without a big bad are even worse.

*Crackle* (Robotic voice:)"You are now arriving at... *Crackle* Rusty Asteroid, Space Station. Thank you for travelling with us. *Crackle* Please remember to take your belongings with you when leaving the shuttle." You hear one final crackle, then the speakers give nothing but the low hum they gave before. As you step out, you get your bearings. Rusty Asteroid, appropiate. Round, brown and old, that's what the place was. But at least there was supposed to be work here. Not something any place in the galaxy could say these days. You open the doors, and immediately see a large bar, with a fat creature trying and failing to clean a glass. In a low voice, he calls out to you: "Hah, new one, eh? What are you, can't see through that helmet. Anyway, welcome, to the Rusty Asteroid, home of bounty hunters, gunslingers, and other intergalactic badasses. Want work, check the Bounty Board, want a drink, speak with me. You know the drill."

I've actually thought about a jump in time before, and I think even like a 2-3 year jump in time with the same characters would potentially be really interesting. I believe Sandy has said he wants to continue this for at least a few years or something, I don't think the Wolfgang storyline has enough meat to it for that, without really few main story quests or really dragged out stuff, but I could be seeing it all wrong. Perhaps that's just because we got the Big Bad in the picture now, finally. Keep in mind this is all hypothetical, and this should not at all be interpreted of me being bored of the Heroica setting, if Sandy's story ends, I kind of would like a different setting, altogether I think. I think an RPG with similar concepts (e.g. the format of normal dice battle results) in different settings could be really cool, like a Space setting. A few hundred years in Heroica could be cool, it could become more steampunky, but that's more limiting than a straight up fantasy or space rpg, I feel like. Also, it definitely started out as a joke, I think it is a fun character direction, and I think Guts being crowned King would be pretty awesome (it's not going to happen if Sandy doesn't want it, so it's not going to happen, basically), but the minute that would happen, he turns into an NPC.

King Guts will reduce taxes on wide brimmed hats and chickenfeed. I'm just saying. I'm kind of the same way, just make sure not to create seperate groups for the sake of creating seperate groups. S.O.W. is awesome, I'll leave it at that. I wouldn't see Guts gathering allies as a seperate faction within Heroica. Or at least, that's not how Guts sees it. Also, if that happens as the end, it would be pretty terrible. But at the same time, I hope the Wolfgang storyline isn't the end of Heroica, so there you go. Much could and can and should and will happen. It's all good, however it plays out, I think.

Just wondering, if Thotwick has problems with Witches, doesn't he also have problems with Necromancers? If not more? Also, Guts isn't making an army. Let's just say he's choosing his friends at the moment.

Edit: obelix was faster.

I've seen tons, last night I've seen Symphony X live. From the top of my head: Avantasia, Pain of Salvation, Kasabian, Coldplay, Pearl Jam, Queens of the Stone Age, Elbow, All Time Low, Kings of Leon, Arctic Monkeys, Iron Maiden, The Hives, Seasick Steve, to name a few.

Yes.

Guts takes a quick look around the room, then says to Lady Felix: "I'm sure you have business of your own to take care of. It'd be my pleasure if we could speak more later this evening." The raider looks at the kitchen door. If he remembered it right, and they were here on the same time, any second a waiter could come out with drinks. When the waiter comes out, Guts attemts to sneak into the kitchen.

Guts offers his arm for Lady Felix while they walk: "I must admit my taste for Charissian Wine is acquired, I am but a simple man, born among salt and sand. You however, look great this evening, if I may be so bold."

Christian uses this head. Glad you guys like them.

Nah the alternate realities were some things work out differently is stupid. Don't get me wrong, interesting, but stupid. One of his greatest feats.

I don't think that's how it works... "Yeah, I am the bald guy from the prophecy that calls himself Guts. What? What do you mean there are hundreds of guys saying the same thing?" No, you're looking at it wrong. The second universe is just a direct copy. We are the only thing that changed. Everything else plays the same way.

Basically yes. We hopped to another universe, the universe we came from just seizes to exist. Guts would die. Remember that like 200 heroes went into Fortaan, most were probably pretty good. The six that survived were just the nasty ones that trampled over the others. Probably. Plus that much knowledge of what would happen is basically a magnet for all kind of evil. I don't think it would work out too well. Also, what's the point in being King if you know when you wanted to be it in the first place, you'll be long dead.

Look. Time Travel in fiction is amazing. As long as there is no talk about paradoxes. Fuck paradoxes.

I can tell this is going to be great. I kinda hope we get to go back in time another time. It's going to be funny as Guts is now slightly drunk to start with. As well as he knows Shawe wants to make that deal.

Guts roughly puts one of the bottles in Guffington's hands, this time only accompanying it with an untelligible mumble, and an unhappy look. He turns to the Selkreeth, fixes a more charming look on his face, and extends his ungloved hand: "Captain Guts Holla, at your service, my lady."

I think this plot twist is kind of great.

Before the Raider can protest, a needle has been pricked in him, and moments later, he finds himself back when they first came in. Suddenly, he understands. They went back in time. That is just great. He would have to sit through the people's pointless banter again. Guts sighed. Still slightly affected by the alcohol, he scratched his throat. Couldn't they just tell Guffington not to drink? Still. The Doctors were keeping something from them, the raider was sure of that. Guts wasn't even sure if this was actually real. This just seemed like a very convoluted way to find out who is trying to kill you. Why surround yourself with these people in the first place? The ones Guts had spoken to were only looking out for themselves anyway. But then again, this was a unique experience. This might get interesting. The raider started to think about how things went... He had leant against a tree until Guffington turned to him, he had then given him a bottle of wine. He had brought two. Guts makes sure if there is only one bottle of wine.

1. Witchbreed, Imhotep, Yakuza, Jedi Temple, Excalibur, Forest 2, Ragnarok Now, Heartlake Heartbreak, The Pearl, Harriet Slutter. Plus some outside of EB. 2. I should be okay. 3. It seems really cool to be playing as a Serial Killer, and in any game I am not playing, I always root for the Serial Killer to win.

At least they aren't shoes.

The raider squints his eyes. This necklace. He had seen it before. It was the same thing as the ring he gave to the dragon. Only now there were four? That ring had been an invaluable artifact, apparantly able to twist time and space, not that he had tried it out, but when he gave it to the dragon, it was purring like a kitten. There was no way to recreate such a thing, there was no way there were four. There was only one explanation for this: "This isn't real." With that stated, Guts removes his Pugilist's Gloves, puts on the necklace, and draws Lifestealer. They must be in a dreamworld again. He hadn't noticed the exact moment they switched from the real world, but, he had been drinking. It could even be the drinks that got them here. "Let's just find out what Guffington wants this time and get it over with."
