Actual quotes from games with Damian Magecraft (the character)
Damian to the party while digging through his pack as the raging beast charges them...

"I know I have the black chalk dust for the protection circle in here somewhere..."

"Keep him busy this will only take 3 hours..."

Damian to the ancient Dragon after the party is caught raiding said dragons lair

"Excuse me? Are you aware that according to your wingspan to mass ratio you are aerodynamically unsound and there for incapable of flight?"

Later that same adventure (after having convinced the dragon that he indeed cannot fly) as he is being dragged by the collar from the lair and the dragon...

"Come on; give me five more minutes and I will have him convinced he cannot breathe fire."

Seen that. Are you sure there's not an earlier reference?

Attack the Darkness...Attack "The Mother of All Things". You would have to be a "Jelly-fish brain" just to even try to touch her.

I now think Mallak right and it was a reference to my post. Attacking the Lord of Nightmares (referred to as Lord of Darkness in spell) would be insane.

I think the FF version of that skit was better.

(the line at the end was used by 2 players to the GM)
a few years back...

A campaign that was LOOSELY based on the witch-hunting of 16th/17th Christianity. PCs started off hunting down witches and necromancers. Two wizard PCs would of course dig through various spellbooks/scrolls that were found, taking notes of any "non-inherently evil" spells. Then they would destroy the books, or send them off to a "safe" location to be locked away.

Of course, "non-inherently evil" can be reasoned..

After all, spells like "assemble bones" and "crawling bones" can be VERY useful, if you are trying to get the bodies into shape for a proper burial...
"Object Read the dead" is a GREAT spell, to help prove if vile magics were used...
Recognize the Undead, Eyes of the Dead.. these are TOOLS... they're not EVIL...

By the time we were around level 15 or so, and we got confronted by the High Priest of the Church of Light (who according to our GM was an ancient Great Horned Dragon) about how we had been using these "vile magics".. and we were justifying them...

"Return from the Grave isn't inherently evil.. after all, we aren't coming back for POWER.. we're just trying to protect ourselves from the evil necromancers and witches, and this way, we can continue the fight longer! We can control those bloodthirsts, and not give in to our baser instincts. We can drink only small bits, from willing people! And we can try to live off of animals! Heck, between us, we might even find a way of removing the bloodlust altogether!! We powerful enough mages!"

Greetings!

You DO NOT want to get Resurected and wake up to this; "Hey! It WORKED!!! I can't believe it! We didn't have quite enough PPE to make it work fully, so we left out a few things, it's ok- you can still fight...Nevermind what we left out, you never got lucky with the ladies anyway..."

PF game...The whole party was skinny dipping/bathing/playing in a river/creek...actually we started out bathing after a very messy encounter with a dung monster...Not a pleasant site or smell. I playing the wizard in the game. I splash around with my soap (Long lasting forest scented soap, because it's far better to smell like a tree then it is to smell like lunch.) until I am clean. Then, unlike my comrades who have horses to clean, I get out and go to the protection circle i drew on this large rock, by lake side, and put our clothes and belongings in, after I cast cleanse on them...The horses were still down there with the other PCs getting washed. I get dressed then go on top of the nice sized rock to start to meditate, so I can regain some PPE.

The GM: It's about 2 hours later. You've just finished with the horses, they are clean and smelling forest fresh. The has sun set, and you have about 90 minutes until dark. Your wizard has recovered 50 PPE. You are within a mile of 2 ley lines, but still a mile away from a nexus. So, I thought I would give you a boost.
Me: Thank you.
GM: What are the 4 of you doing at this point in time? Not what are going to be doing, but actually doing right now?
Ranger: I'm getting my stuff together to go hunting.
Merc: Same.
Thief: Cussing the wizard's protection circle.
Me: Canceling the magic so he can get dressed.
GM: Okay...Everyone make a perception roll to hear something.
Everyone but me rolled under a 10. I rolled a 19.
GM: I am so glad you made your roll...From above and to the left of the thief, you hear "Ants in the pants...At the ready...", but you don't see anything there.
Me: Hummm. Cast see the invisible.
GM: You see 25 majorly honked off faeries with bows...All 25 of them have theirs loaded with a arrow.
Me: Oh ****...FAERIES!!!!!

Oh, yesterday Shawn, who was playing the thief, reminded me that he wasn't real happy with my solution to the problem. Namely...Cast Havoc and put him in the area of effect. In play though, it couldn't be helped. And they still got me and the ranger with the arrows, and 1 of the wild shots hit a horse. I think it was the Mercs.
