So...Warhammer anyone?
« on: September 16, 2008, 11:54:41 PM »
I'm on Phoenix Throne RP server. All Dwarf guild (of course  8) ) and made it up to R10/RR8 so far. Just wondering who else is playing or plans to play?

I didn't want to at first after all the stories about content that was cut to hit deadline. But my wife got wind of the witch elf class and is bugging me to buy the game now.

We'll see.

I see a image of a man IN your beard!

He has hair down to his ears and he's sticking his tongue out.

It could also be a dog.

Will I get Night Owl points for quitting but not as much for getting fired?
Will I still be a member of the Owl's Pals? I'd hate to turn in my card. It's got a real owl feather under the lamination and everything.

Night Owl: Oh, indeed. I quit many a job ...better than being fired. You can keep your card... in fact, you get double points for quitting!

Would you marry a dwarf?

I don't think I could: our beards would rub when we kissed.

Dwarf females don't have beards. That's something that WoW and WAR got right.

Check out 4th Ed D&D female dwarves.
No beards, all meat.

Still, I'd prefer me an elf. They tend to clean more :P

Nope. We just refuse to accept Tolkien as the end all be all of mythological lore. His stuff was great but inaccurate in that regard.  :P

Edit - oh and you forgot the PC tag "not that there's anything wrong with that" on your post. So I can assume you belong to the Phelps school of thinking.

Edit Edit - not really. Just feel like getting you into trouble.   ;D

I was actually going to say "kissing a woman with a beard doesn't make you gay, stop being dwarfhomophobic." But I felt that was a little too faux-PC.

Also, from what I understand Tolkien got that from Nordic mythology (The Dvergar) but anyone here with a more specific knowledge of Nordic Myth can correct me on that.

My point is that I always think it's funny when people make assertions about fictional characters that exist on multiple universes. Keebler and Legolas are two different kind of elves, with little to no physical similarities, but to some people they're both "elves."

I remember being the only nerd in my fifth grade class who didn't think elves should be the ones that work in Santa's shop, but the ones who swing under horses and shoot people with arrows. Once LOTR came out in theaters it either got worse or better with everyone believing elves look like Orlando Bloom.

So you're saying that Dwarves with beards is an urban myth about a fictional race with a fanciful aberration.

I think I would have used more direct alliteration, but that's the gist.

Although replace "urban" with "rural" and "fictional" with "asskicking."
