GURPSify a quote
"Cowardice (12) leads to Bad Temper (12). Bad Temper (12) leads to Intolerance. Intolerance leads to Chronic Pain. Chronic Pain leads to Force Talent (Corruption -20%)."

Re: GURPSify a quote
I love this game already.
Quote:
Here's an easy one, just to keep the ball rolling: "Ally (Mount; Built on 50%; 15 or less) [10]! Ally (Mount; Built on 50%; 15 or less) [10]! I'll happily exchange my Status 6 [30] for Ally (Mount; Built on 50%; 15 or less) [10]!" |

Re: GURPSify a quote
"War. War never changes." from the Fallout series.
So, this is a guessing game? Because I can't imagine that being too difficult unless the source quote is fairly obscure. Let me try one that might be a bit more obfuscated: "Some PC built on 300+ points with powers from the Mutant source, never even considered for inspiring a general character template. With Weirdness Magnet linked to Destiny (Great Disadvantage), but also Unkillable linked to Unique."

Re: GURPSify a quote
I wanted to mention this one in the recent Genchat zombie thread.
Kinda short on GURPS crunch, but I got no books right now. Sig gear: Flaming Composite Bow, Very Fine (Materials/Decoration) Arrows, Imbued, power based on archer's Will Spear of Weather Control Vehicle (Fnord), Flaming Great Vow: Fight to achieve something humanly impossible, all the time.

Re: GURPSify a quote
Sorry to be negative, but we've already got a Guess the Character thread. This one's for quotes.
Haven't gotten PK's yet, but it sounds like the intro from a TV show or movie (along the lines of Superman, Last Airbender, Wolverine, Six Million Dollar Man in feel, not detail)). |

Re: GURPSify a quote
Kinda sounds like Quantum Leap? Except that's not quite Mutant.

Re: GURPSify a quote
Bingo! I was hoping I wasn't the only Thompson fan on these forums.
