Don't kill me
Feb. 17th, 2006 08:31 amThe usual D&D geekery last night. I'll spare you the details.
But at one point it looked very much as if we were all going to die.
"That's okay," I said, "this'll give me a chance to work up a new character I've been thinking about. I'll be a transsexual monk named Charles, and you can call me Nun Chuck."
Okay, I have to admit that I was inspired by something I saw on Married With Children a long time ago. It was one of their funnier episodes, "We'll Follow The Sun", and at one point Peg was all excited about the new TV guide:
When I originally saw this, I went insane - don't ask me why - and started making up as many other Nun shows as I could imagine.
So here are some of the other characters I could have created:
Stop me.

"Will we be back by next Thursday, honey? [shows Al the TV Guide] Look: 'Nun of This', about a nun who's had enough. [reading out loud] Karen Valentine is Sister Lash, your worst nightmare - a nun with a gun!"
When I originally saw this, I went insane - don't ask me why - and started making up as many other Nun shows as I could imagine.
So here are some of the other characters I could have created:
- Nun So Blind - A blind female monk. Unfortunately D&D 3.5 penalizes blindness so heavily that she'd be virtually unplayable, even if I took the blind-fighting feat.
- Nun of the Above - A female monk from the mountains. Or, a dual-class female monk-cleric.
- Nun Shall Make You Afraid - A dual-class female monk/wizard who uses fear spells.
- Nun Shall Pass - A female monk with the Overrun feat. Or, alternatively, with diarrhea. Another option would be kidney stones.
Stop me.
