Derp Quest: The First Muffin (OOC/Signup/Info) (No Spots Currently)

Ooh, sentient artifact! I gotta remember that one, it'd be a good way to cover a party weakness with worrying about an OP DMNPC.

Alternatively I could just have Derpy go with you.... mwahahaha.

</joke>

Ah! So we're "Douglas Adam"ing this. I approve

Well, this is still less annoying than facing a contextually insensitive magician.

Gimme a hint? Who would that be?

Well you're just going along and then for no reason something like this happens.

Note that EXP is entirely different from Harmony.

Whiteeyes: Oh. I thought you meant someone in particular.

Womf: That brings up an interesting point...

Harmony is not, in my campaigns, the same as it is in the Handbook. It could be considered "experience", except I have a different definition for that word too.

"Experience", or Harmony, or whatever you feel comfortable calling it, is anything that I feel causes the character to grow; either physically, mentally, spiritually, or even from a story-line perspective. Sitting around eating muffins isn't going to get you anywhere; As Mrs. Frizzle used to say, Take Chances, Make Mistakes, Get Messy! There is no one particular thing you can do to earn Harmony besides that.

No, I am referencing someone specific. Making random non sequitur clips appear is one of his powers. It's an abridged series.

Hmm, an interesting definition. Thisll be interesting to try out!

So basically you're awarding us XP for good roleplaying XD

Yes, I am very much a role-play monkey. This is because my RP roots lie in forum based free-form RPs, where if you had to roll a die to see if you succeeded or failed then it meant you sucked

Although, admittedly, some very amusing results come about when you let the RNG handle things now and then.

Any xp for our teammate being a racist?

No... because (at least right now) it hasn't caused any real character growth.

Now granted, it does open up the possibilities... but right now it's more of an investment.

Not racist. Just not expecting a cat to talk and not used to general nouns for groups other than ponies.
I was debating having her run off crying, but it's a silly campaign and that doesn't really fit the bill.
[edit] Heheh, duck bill.

I love watching PC's bicker!

Sadly I always have to have some responsible NPC step in and break it up...

You have failed to do this...

Also, making an update to Cursed Medals:

Still working on exact mechanics, but the idea is that a Cursed Medal can only be removed under certain conditions. It might have to be a certain time of day, or it might require an Arcana check, etcetera. This is primarily to prevent possible breakage, since a lot of those Flaws have multiple mechanisms attached that work independently of each other. (For instance, if you have a Derp Medal, and take it off in the afternoon, do you keep the magic point?)

EDIT: Not saying you CAN'T do that Womf... Derpy is just a bit paranoid, and therefore thinks it's a bad idea. You can choose to ignore her... we'll see what comes of it.

Text is now larger!

@ Thundering Flute: EEEEEEWWW...

@ Whiteeyes: Not quite what I meant. But whatever.

No, Kogu has reason not to draw attention to himself, so it's a very valid point IC. OOC, it would make things a lot more convenient, but what's the fun of being a cat if I bypass all the problems that come with it?

Just trying not to seem like a railroader.

hah. play on words.
I would've posted Falls being semi-confused about bag ruffling, but I don't want to overstep and make decisions about the world.

Yeah, that was a good one.

As for baggage, I'll clear it up; they do check the really big ones if it's someone they don't know. Kogu could get away in a smaller bag, or if the train people decided they could trust the one carrying it.

Hrm... it may be time for a Cursed Medal... I dunno.

I wonder who's gonna make the "letting the cat out of the bag" joke when you get there.

Even if Kogu doesn't end up using Derpy's Paper Bag Mask...

Now, I'll remind you: What this means is that whoever's got the bag on effectively has the "Identity Issues" flaw (you'll have to go check the thread, my Copy/Paste is being an a-hole).

So you may want to go look.

Nted. +10 to check involving the convincing of people that my persona is real, but any acknowledgement of my falsity gives me a stackable -1 morale until I convince them otherwise. Does that carry on once the bag is taken off?
