Playing Dr Dan Nguyen, 60 year old fisherman, in Betrayal at the House on the Hill. Role playing wise somehow he’s acquired a Brooklyn accent and complains about how his knees are killing him after doing the stairs in this place, he got two crossbow bolts in the back and might be getting a migraine.
stuff coyote thinks about while listening to Wagner, why do I remember this cartoon better than the Krebs cycle or anything useful?
O MIGHTY WARRIOR OF GREAT FIGHTING STOCK
MIGHT I INQUIRE TO ASK, WHAT'S UP DOC?
"I'm going to kill da wabbit"
OH MIGHTY WARRIOR TWILL BE QUITE A TASK
HOW WILL YOU DO IT
MIGHT I INQUIRE TO ASK?
"with my spear and magic helmet"
"spear and magic helmet?"
"magic helmet!"
"Yes, magic helmet! And I'll give you a sample!
"North winds BWOW! South winds BWOW! Typhoons, hurricanes... SMOOOOGGGGGG"
"bye!"
"That was da wabbit!"
coyote sing along hour, Gwar, poop
cross the river leave the abyss
give the seat of the toilet a kiss
each virgin sacrifice speaks these magic words,
just jiggle the handle and call forth a turd!
here it comes baby, Ah'm droppin' mah load!
Ah ain't just on it, Ah AM th' commode
AHH!
Reading my new VtM rules book I both have thumbnailed characters and written story ideas, and gotten incredibly bored with being told how to build ambience linked to Jung like archetypical stories which require 6 pages of jargon.
Keep in mind while Werewolf and Changeling REALLY connect to me at some big levels, Vampire doesn’t; it’s just interesting to me.
The definition of entertainment media is "something big comes along which blows the lid off what was there before and you ask yourself, wow, you mean they can actually do this?" I can see this in how prior generations hit Tolkien and science fiction in general, but my lifetime's included an okay amount of "wow, you mean they can actually do this?" There's obviously going to be a great deal of that long after I'm gone.
reminded myself that a story I still want to work on involves how 1940-44 is technically a "greatest hour of need" for most countries in Europe, and consequently awakened Ogier Dansk and Roland fighting Friedrich Barbarossa's troops, Owain Glyn Dwr and Arthur unsure about defending foreigners from England, etc.
I hadn't realized that Germans had grafted a British/American style Santa Claus onto their previously Very Christian St. Nicholas as "Weinachtsmann." Literally Christmas Man. Criminals are a superstitious and cowardly lot, and I must strike Christmas into their hearts. The carol "Tomorrow Comes The Christmas Man" does not help with this.
Lots of random gunk, but some drawings and cooking talk too. Obsesses about DnD and related topics. Left-leaning/profoundly frustrated politics. Black lives matter; trans rights are human rights.
