From last night's Dungeon Fantasy game, the new delving band has just finished killing a dragon at great effort. The band consists of Galen, a half-elf Scout with lots of Perception but not so much shooting skill; Aravalos, a mountain elf Scout that shoots thing but isn't so perceptive; Kaz, a coleopteran barbarian; and Kit, a shaman.

This is the out of character chat log.

Kaz: One of our scouts knows how to skin this guy, right?
Kit: maybe?
GM: Galen knows All The Scout Things, I think. Except bowing things to death.
Kaz: because I want to turn him into a coat.
Kit: Basic dragonhide is really expensive, and has about the same DR/wt ratio as steel plate.
Kaz: One assumes that it's cheaper if you provide your own dragonhide.
Kit: Yeah, probably. Dragonbone is cheaper, though: $1800 per DR vs $3600, about the same weight. Dragonscale is the lightest but most expensive: $5000/DR, 6 lbs/DR. Double and all that for Kaz.
Kaz: So what you're saying is that I should basically just layer the bone over the hide and wear my conquest like some sort of bizarre inside-out creature.
Kit: Pretty much.
Kit: Plus, badass.

After our Warlock kissed our Warforged and gained a negative level, the Brony in our group quipped this:

"They said friendship was magic. They didn't specify it was dark necromancy."


Also, this was delivered ICly when an investigator asked for names and aliases:

<Bob> "Oh! I'm Bob of Aiur, son of Ralph, son of Fred, Heir to the Aiur School of Fencing, also known as 'Hey You', 'Oh God It's Him' and 'That Derpy-Looking Guy With The Sword'."

Something that's happened more than once in different campaigns.

PC: "OK, I cast Prehistory, ten thousand years."

Players: We thought you were dead!

The lich king (distractedly): When does a king truly die? After he draws his last breath, or after he issues his last command? (turning back to the players) It makes a difference of two centuries and counting.

In Tuesday's D&D game, the party are on a astrological quest, through all the classical celestial bodies trying to gain the favour of their rulers. The overall objective is to gain allies in breaking the siege of a city, which contains one of the plot tokens we have been collecting for many years. The Moon was Diana, and had a lot of hunting; we're now on Mercury, which includes trade, travel, commerce, luck and theft.

At the racecourse in Mercury City two of the party have met a strange cloaked and hooded figure with a very ... breathy ... manner of speech. For reasons of their own, they ask him if he's interested in employment to assist in breaking the siege.

"Yes..."
"What are your capabilities?"
"I am an experienced lurker, capable of surprising and disabling attacks. <breath> I am team-focussed, and adaptable to any situation. I strive for quality outcomes ..."

From yesterday's session.

"Next you come to room D-7."

"Is it full of Klingons?"

Somebody actually got that joke, the Nerd Gods bless them

Our Ninja Pirate Shark Rider had a "Fool of a Took!" moment a few sessions ago and has had a draconic sounding voice in his head ever since. The message yesterday was:

"I need Wings!"

"Does that mean we got to fight a red bull?"

Turned out no. Just a giant crab.

"Be careful with those claws! That's where the good meat is!"

"Stop bleeding on our entrée!"

We find a box with petrified miniature dragon wings in it to go with the skull from last session. The wings do not fasten themselves directly to the skull.

"Is a the mysterious voice not know he needs a spine?"

I'm curious. Is this a reference to something, or a joke about business resumé-speak in general?

Business-speak, and its only slightly greater incongruity in this situation than in its usual usage.

"Having a CriminalSim means you get harassed by the police, you can get your home searched at random instances and gets supsected first in criminal investigations. It's kind of like being black in the U.S."
