And now for some crack...
I'm pretty sure more than one or two of you on my f-list are, or have at one time played a table top RPG.
Sure, TTRPG's have their own sets of rules and what not to keep players in check. For every plus theirs a negative and what not.
However... there are points when it becomes.... too much.
F.A.T.A.L. is a... pretty much perfect example.
My introduction to it was as follows (thanks to Elle-chan):
Magical Mishap:
"Caster is able to shoot flames out of their ass 1d100 feet at will, 1d6 LP damage."
"Caster now wants to kill everything wearing the color blue."
"Caster vomits 96 times in a row, all within 2 minutes." (is that even possible?)
Apparently they can be positive too:
"Caster and target become able to vomit at will." (who the hell wants THAT ability?!)
This one is entertaining too:
"Caster and target forever believe that they are lovers," or "Caster and target forever believe that they are homosexual lovers." Also they mention brothers and sisters as well (for instance if a spell goes wrong you could think that the female troll you just killed is your brother...
Not only do they have crazy penalties - but they make you roll for everything, and I do mean everything. Sperm count, penis size, vaginal and anal circumference. Yep. Get out your dice ladies and gentlemen~
(Quotes are given to us thanks to Elle who has been sitting there reading it all...)
This is only the tip of the cracktastic ice burg. I've only just started reading it and I'm rolling... XD
