Well Keric, pick 3. I like your post office. It might even have been cool to see a transcription error couriered in from an instabeam about to be rewrapped and sent back.

[Herr D]

Thank you, Vampirist. Fortunately, they don’t like cities much.

Lalantie is an example of an elemental mage from Sufia, commonly called a Renaturer. This is an example of her ethereal form, where she cannot be harmed physically. Here she is trying to visualize perfect balance through her stardance. The goal would be to control all four elements as necessary for the equivalent length of her concentration in this form. She rolls three d20 + 5 for the number of rounds, a d8 (4 and above count as four,) and a d20 for the number of hundredweight in each element she can control. A critical roll means five thousandweight. Lalantie is a Renaturer graduate in her realm from an apprenticeship to Sufian legend Tandratu. She is appointed to lead a small group of travelers, non-powered, through the dream-marshes to the safety of Castle Joiga. INI20DEX11AGL9WIS18CON6CHA13  Magery stats: MEM16MAG12PSI14ELM17

I’m guessing Prof. May’s hair went white because he found the wrong thing? Good stuff.

[Herr D]

Um? Noncanon links seem to be missing. The others are good.

[Herr D]

Hey–what was mixed media done with? Good fx.

When a chaotic neutral lunatic human I was playing accidentally singed off a dwarf’s beard with a ‘pirated’ pyrotechnic blast, I had him sit right down and weave a new one out of rat hairs. The GM rolled . . . it became a +10 beard of frightening, and kept several giant rats at bay when worn.

Good times. I like Valti. Maybe a thin arc of blood spatter on the rocks behind her?

How about a werehorse cowboy twirling a lasso?

For Astral, my suggestion would be he’s available to heroes to bring them intel for a price. He makes his agreements while the heroes are dreaming only, so no one can catch him. (Doesn’t even need a costume that way!) His price would be, say, for one hideout location: three donations of eighty meals each to any soup kitchen within a certain radius. Two down, one after. Steep, but no one complains–they think of it as philanthropic.

No one realizes that people who are drugged are extra vulnerable to him. He actually has a few alcoholic homeless people eat at one donation and collect meals for him at another. They have no memory of delivering the meals later. The man who projects the identity of Astral greatly reduces his grocery bill–always has a few meals in his freezer from these donations.

Hey, can Lancer do things besides spears? Can she USE them as other things? Those facets together could make some very interesting subplots . . . nice work on Chrysalis.

[Herr D]

Thanx, man!

The Nefer hacker whose codename has not yet been made public was forbidden to remain within range of any technology. So naturally, he was shipped off to TZ6058604A, the penal colony. His ship crashed and sank on TZ6058604B. It’s a bronze age level civilization on a planet with no iron or aluminum mining capability. They’ve harbored escapees and mutineers from everywhere, so the alien mix is as diverse as the penal colony. The Nefer in question IS humanoid, and so stands out a bit.

This fighter is one of the Spiky Decapods from Ghru. These guys have twelve eyes, ten tentacles, two to eight spikes per tentacle, weigh about 200 lb., and can’t get dizzy.

Slashing or stabbing to opponent like half damage of a spiked chain, treat an attack to hit like five whips from a master. AGL20DEX17STR14WIS8STR8CON5 Naturally has ‘uncanny dodge.’ Excellent mercs and infantry.

Okay! I’m back from errands and have put together the three items below for your entries to be comprised of. One extra half-point will be awarded to the entrant who includes somehow the following random themes: Postage, Oranges, and Sociology. Don’t ruin your entry; a half-point probably will not make you win.

Deadline 6/5/17 midnight, EST. To be judged, hopefully before 5pm EST 6/6.

Wow. . . . Thank you, Keric, for that — I thought yours was good, particularly the understood parts of the story. Your story, I think, may have been better than mine this time.I have to run out, in a terrible hurry, but if no one objects to your judgement in the next several hours, I’ll post the next three items when I get back.

[Herr D]

Yeh, nice axe. I remember seeing The Lord Of The Rings in the theater, when Gimli was joining the nine he said I ‘pledge my axe’ someone in the audience blurted out “–that you just broke.” This one only hit with a glancing blow.

“Mr. Quimby’s Solution”

Mr. Quimby didn’t fit in with the community on Junebug Hill St. He didn’t come out to celebrate block parties in the cul-de-sac. He didn’t bring any plants outside from his upstairs, indoor hothouse. He only left his house to deliver his horticulture projects to his individual clients.

When the neighborhood association approached him, he told them that not only would he NEVER join, he was going to sue them if his neighbors couldn’t stop their dogs from breaking down their inferior fences and getting onto his lawn. He said they dug up his lawn a lot and caused problems with runoff. He hated all the barking at night anyway.

The neighborhood association rebuffed him, saying that all the good lawyers in town were on their side. Further, that his lawn was just grass, so why all the fuss? It was their own fences being broken and their own lawns receiving the runoff. Why would he worry about it anyway?

He said he’d been wanting to put a plant or two outside, but didn’t want to because dogs would likely tear them up. Besides, they might be mildly poisonous, and he didn’t want to be responsible.

The neighborhood association said to put some out. That it would be their own fault. Hadn’t he warned them? They gave it to him in writing.

He put out a plant on his back patio. He said it was a new species named the ‘rainbow eye shrub.’ . . . there are a few dogs missing . . . but all’s well, right?

*The foot became the shrub trunk, the ears became flower petals, and the binocs became part of the basket. Strange thing about this was, all later versions refuse to load. Corrupted or something, I don’t know?
