Re: The OOC Strikes Back

Welcome back, Aaron.

Just so we know where we stand, what is the absolute minimum number of limbs you think you can have, and still remain functional?

Re: The OOC Strikes Back

Welcome back, Aaron!

For what it's worth, I always thought Aaron was sort of like Monty Python's Black Knight.  I figure you could take all his limbs off and he'd still be spitting defiance.

And what good timing, we have so many ways to get hurt just now.  Kaiju; four-armed, over-sized, metallic golems; and, you know, Harbonah.  Oh, and James is carrying a cursed sword that cuts through anything.

Disclaimer: I am joking (I hope that's obvious, but one can never quite be sure with written posts).  It's great to have you back in the game.

Re: The OOC Strikes Back

Well, if I wanted to get Meta, I could consider Aaron's Endurance score as good enough to have him regenerate all of his limbs after a certain period of time, so technically the sky is the limit. :p

Of course, Big D would be the one to have the final say in that, so I'll only sacrifice whatever is necessary... for drama. ;)

I'll try to duck while you're swinging that thing around, James, or perhaps just counter it with my own damned blade. :)

Unless the sword we're talking about is anything like the one Cyan was wielding as the General, in which case I'll just run away really fast.

Re: The OOC Strikes Back

Actually, it's the same one Cyan was wielding as the General.  We swapped a little while back.  So, yeah, running...it's what James should have done.

Re: The OOC Strikes Back

Well, technically, Aaron could replace lost limbs given enough time and plenty of rest.  Oh, and chicken soup, naturally.

If he loses both an arm and a leg, it could be interesting to see if they grow back in their correct locations.

Also, I'd be interested in seeing whether the new limbs he grows are actually the same species as the originals...

Re: The OOC Strikes Back

Huh. I never actually considered any of that, Big D. Yikes!

All the more reason to see what might happen, I suppose. :)

AARON!  :)

*hugs*

So very good to see you!  Awesomeness!  Even if you come back with your legs swapped with your arms!

Yes, James is currently carting around Gurthang, while Cyan has Fangmir.

Re: The OOC Strikes Back

Yes my dear, I figured it was about time I got my ass in gear and caught up with you guys for good. Can't be a recluse all my life, after all. ;)

It's good to be back again.
Now all I have to do is save all of Amber and we'll meet up after that, I suppose, barring intervention by a certain Owner of Pointy Sticks. :)

Yeah, didn't Dworkin tell you?  Saving the universe is where it's at now. :P

Re: The OOC Strikes Back

Great, so I'm actually behind the times? I'll need to travel through Shadow just to get caught up with what's cool now, and then I won't even be at the place that I'm trying to save. Staying hip is really hard, and Aaron has never been good at it. :p

He's really good at getting beaten to within an inch of his life, though. So good, in fact, that he beats himself. It seems I've crafted quite the specialist in this game. :)

Re: The OOC Strikes Back

Horrid.  Poke me with a sharp stick, why don't you?

Better yet, poke Aaron!  :)

Augh. I get poked enough as it is, and it's mostly my own fault. :p

Augh!  -_o

Had a hell of a week. D:
Should feel up to actually responding to something during my three day weekend, though.

Re: The OOC Strikes Back

I'm currently on Vacation, and this makes it oddly more difficult for me to post.  I'll see what I can do about getting on to post things from time to time.  :)

Re: The OOC Strikes Back

Ha ha. It's because you're on vacation that it's hard to get your brain working. It just wants to rest. ;)

Re: The OOC Strikes Back

There is that.  And you seem to be completely correct.  I've not really been on much at all.

But, back to work!  :)  And here, and I'm glad to be back!
