A Player and I were digging through a box of old RPG stuff when we came across a pile of old DS character sheets. We couldn’t help but laugh at some of the ways they had died. So, I figured it was time to open a thread on Famous Athasian Last Words again. If you have some brilliant and not-so-brilliant last words from Athasian characters or GM/Player conversations, please share them with the community. I’ll gather them into a document and post them on Athas Online. All contributors will be credited.
ELVEN RAID ON CARAVAN:
Player: "The elven raiders are shooting at us? I take cover under the mekillot. How much bonus do I get to AC?"
GM (evil grin): “Total cover.”
MERCHANT HOUSE OF AMKETCH (SPOILER WARNING!!!):
PC: "Bezrak, someone’s smuggling Shaqat beetles on your caravan."
Bezrak: “Let’s talk about this in my quarters. Stug, come with us”
DRAGON’S CROWN - IN HAMANU’S PALACE:
A PC looks through the keyhole on the door to the meeting chamber when someone taps his shoulder.
NPC: "What are you doing?"
PC: "Shhh. Go away. Hamanu ordered me to watch the meeting chamber."
NPC: "Funny, I can’t remember giving that order."
PC: “… Oh, ****”
VEILED ALLIANCE MEETING:
PC: "Are you threatening me? Just wait until I tell the templars about your little underground organization. You’re SO dead."
PC #2: "WE’re so dead."
GM: /nods
“You ain’t gonna drink the last of that, are you.” This was said from one player to another and not in the form of a question. Player in-fighting. Good to the last drop with the 2e madness rules.
PC- Look a caravan we are saved!
PC#2- Are you sure thats a caravan?
PC- Of course I’m sure, just look at it, and besides if its the raiders we’re looking for we can kill em all before they blink
PC#2- I just hope its a caravan
(Urik templars are over-correct due to all those Hamanu´s codes.)
Zorik, the Half-Giant (PC): I was now waiting for an hour in the queue. Sir, i need this information. How much does it cost?
The Templar: It costs 5 bit and you can have it by tomorrow morning.
Zorik: Fine. Here you have 10 bit. I surely do not have to wait again tomorrow…
Templar: Corruption! Guards!
What a nice, wellcrafted, moving statue that is … what the F* a moving statue? (Half-Giant)
**What is that metal dagger lying around here???
**To a transparent ghost … Hihi you can’t touch me!!
**(To a Urikite Templar) Do you have the same outfit within the Inner city as they have in Nibenay, cuz that should be a laugh!!
** I know that plant, it doesn’t contain poison
**I haven’t seen that bird around here, it seems rather big and ugly
To Dm: How high is it flying??
DM: about 1500feet
(Obviously this was Borys passing by, actually nothing happened but could have been nice famous words)
PC "Wow, I had never seen a cloud ray before. It doesn’t seem that large. I hope it hasn’t noticed me"
DM (me) “That’s because it’s rather far away. But don’t worry, you’re about to get a close-up view”
