What affect does augmented strength have?

Would I be able to, for example, crush someone's hand so they couldn't use a gun, or pull someone's head off?

Sure, probably. It's a matter of rolling, and a +5 bonus is not bad at all. A regular-Strength person could do that too with a lucky roll, and am Augmented Strength II person would probably do it by accident while shaking their hand.

'Engineer a meeting' was vague enough I figured a Meet Cute scenario works just fine. I'm assuming you want to RP this properly yourself, MonkeyHead. Feel free to change the color/font/anything of your dialogue.

Taric rolling a 1 on that Intellect roll is probably a sign of things to come. Caveman say what?

Going to wait to see if Monkey changes or adds to the initial dialog before putting in my own.

Sure. With a waitlist this size, I am not going to bother trying to decipher it until you put any effort into fixing your grammar (you straight-up admit you didn't in the app!).

Dwarmin, I love your character's way of talking, but I suspect sooner or later you're going to have to provide me with a dictionary.

Just PM me for any clarification in terms. :P

Nah. I'll rather just carry on guessing the meanings. Much more entertaining. Especially once you make the mistake of using one of these terms with an NPC and I interpret it as you grievously insulting their mother.

Horrendous and strange dialects are very fun to play, tis true.

Shame that having one didn't fit my picture of my character, but they at least have a few speech patterns.

Dwarmin, I commend you on the amazingness that is your character's method of communication. I think I'm going to have to take notes.

I'll be honest, I was inspired to do something like this after reading 'A Clockwork Orange'. This game finally gave me an excuse to go and tolchock the English language.

It's certainly a book I suggest picking up, btw.

Yeah, I got a vibe from it that just reeked of good ol' ultraviolence. Speech patterns and language are some of the most fun things to play with ever.

Ah, darn, and here I was thinking I was all clever coming up with pirate slang, and I was beaten to the punch. :P Impressive job so far, Dwarmin.

Speaking of, who wants to place bets on Zahir's lifespan?

He's been out in Sol for like five minutes and he's already been tagged by Orbital intelligence. The best part is I didn't even plan any of it.

I do have higher upkeep, tho, it's pretty fun. :P

I like this one from me and gig's unposted PM backstory.

As for the Bloodburn, all have said there is no cure. Truly, be it the long withheld vengeance of Gods-Crocked Earther-scum (may they boil in Mimas's puddles of burning-grease-fires for all the many eternities), or the bone-deep loathing of our ancient forebears, or a curse laid upon us by Holy Kurn herself-or the multitudes of vengeance crying dead, who daily reach clawed hands from deep watery graves to proclaim their spite upon us, those fat lot of whiny corpsers laying lazily dead! They say, for our many and *varied* multitude of sins, there is no hope.

I'm sure he'll live longer than that other guy who's going off without choosing a team, and will no doubt be rocksfalled by the GM for making him do more work.

Team Ultraviolence is still hiring!

Nah - it's been too long since I've run a game with independent plotlines, so split the party all you like. Teamwork is option. The best option when I inevitably send you on suicide missions, but eh. You remember Nowhere to Run, Dwarm. Those suicide missions were fuuuuun.
