For a nominal fee, Ales will be glad to cast Rain of Fire and get rid of your insect/pixie problems. 😆

You folks may be mistaking pixies for fairies.  It's the latter that bite, at least according to Hoggle.

Well, I hear pixies are pretty good, as satay.

I'm just a simple swordsman though, a kid off the farm, just like Luke Skywalker except without the force powers, the hot sister he wants to boink, the cool sword, the dad who doesn't like sand, and the taste for blue milk.

In reply to Wiley Filcher (msg # 265):

In a bit of GURPS inspired fiction I was writing, The little winged fey without antennas were Ellyll, as per Fantasy Folk, and Pixies had the antennae and were kind of bluish, and would cast Curse by the swarm.
Now: swatting: They are sm-6, and have enhanced dodge and flight...Rosewood can launch attacks from -11 distance without rolling to hit...

In reply to Narrator (msg # 270):

I believe we have long since lost Gorgath, so we are going to lose him here, and in another day, at El Menir, all of the other disappearing characters, Sorsha, Mischa, Shroud.  That will leave the party as Gareth, Haveron, Amelia, Adept Yissthenis, Berry and Var.

Unfortunate but necessary... some were interesting, others not so much.

So I should join the group New in Town, after seeing Benito start work?

In reply to Anita Drake (msg # 273):

Yes. That is where the action will be

In reply to Narrator (msg # 274):

Hope to be back tomorrow

Do you know Mordenkeinen's lubrication and Bigby's Helpful Hand?""
it's even funnier if you get the references

In reply to Chye Isuel (msg # 276):

Be back after the weekend

Why yes, I do believe the Evil Cleric is dead.


Granted... he was unconscious, but that no excuse for letting a berserk Ogress rip your head off.

My quest for a nice male pixie photo has been educational to say the least.
One I not sure I really wanted to experience.
Of the few male fairy photo on the net about 95%+ look like they are male strippers that have just come of the stage.  Some for hen parties other the following on act from the village people.

Well if I ever wanted to prove to myself I am straight I just have.
All I wanted was pixie with nice flowing wizard coat.
It has been an interesting experience.

I may have to commission my own pic.

(Sub note I have friends of all sexual out looks and have no issues).

I may be able to help you with that...

lol.  The internet can be an interesting and creepy place.  :)

[Private to GM: If you get a RTJ from Dr. Destructo, he's a long time GURPs guy who I have played with for 25 years now.  I actually taught him GURPs way back then, and converted him from the bad system.  He runs his own GURPs game here, and has done several over the years.  He'd be a good addition, although we'd probably want to find a thread where we could play together.

I tend to be more of the good guy, sometimes with lawful thrown in.  He plays a good gray character.  For example, he would play Aegis well, I think, given the way the character is written up.  At one point I mentioned a game run by Ceredyn where he had PCs running the bad guys in this large plot arc.  Dr. Destructo was the lead bad guy, and did a good job with it.  That said, I don't want to pigeon hole him.  He can play anything.  Most of all, he wouldn't be a behavior problem.  :)

For a while he ran a game where the main characters were all experimental blends of humans and animals.  If he does come by, he may want to play one of the animal demi-humans.  Not for me to decide, though.  I just happened to talk to him a bit today, and he expressed interest in the game.  Not sure if he'll commit though. ]

flame lord just may require essential water... that'd sure lick 'im

Licking Flame Lords is contraindicated, no matter how hot they may be.

roll a crit, and kool-aid man bursts through the masonry. "Oh yeah!" and quenches the flame lord, with his soft drink, that both kids and moms love, with 25% less sugar than leading soft drinks!

A quick search for "male pixie wizard" turned up these:

(this one has a bunch)

Removing "wizard" broadened the search a bit.

Of course, I don't know if these are at all close to what you're looking for, but maybe something here will help...

Sorry, Chye, you were correct.  Pages B347-348: 3-4 is always a crit, 5 is a crit on 15+ effective skill, and 6 is a crit on 16+ effective skill.

Likewise, 18 is always a crit fail, 17 is a crit fail unless effective skill is 16+ (and always a fail, even for  higher skill), and any roll that fails by 10 is always a crit.

I might have been recalling the 3rd Edition version, or something from Hero System (which I've played a fair amount of the past few years, as the usual GM for the group I was in is a long time Champions player).

In reply to Chou-Zhen Mou (msg # 286):
it's cool. we always referred to a 3-4 crit, as a "natural" on the scale.

Whew. Just spent about seven hours drawing. Will catch up tomorrow.

In reply to Narrator (msg # 288):

Total crap day at work; our Apps were down and most of the equipment. The amount of times I had to reboot stuff from the breaker... No rest for the wicked. I will be on early tomorrow morning.

In reply to Narrator (msg # 289):

Just spent several hours cleaning one of my recent commissions. I may not be on until Sunday. Been writing up plot/encounters for the new players
