11-15: You score a critical hit on Thingyman, dealing exactly as much damage as his current HP

One of my last games of Dark Heresy, the group was just insanely genre savvy, refusing to take any chances or accept any potentially corrupting influence no matter how beneficial it would be. The second they even started to worry about sanity or anything, it never even took a question, the person in question would just blow their brains out and the person in question would roll up a new character. One character offed himself after he got a 'creepy feeling' after picking up a small statue, and the rest of the party had the building destroyed. It was just a creepy statue. They made it very hard to hit the themes of Dark Heresy when they were just like, the most toe-the-line group I ever met, all just hi-5s and happiness each time they headed some existential threat off at the pass.

My rogue jumped onto a moving undead horse driven carriage acrobatics (pass) and cut it apart with an adamantium sword or whatever that thing is that cuts through anything. Then it rolled and spinned like ad eath spin and I had to make an acrobatics roll for that (pass).

I did some ninja flip pose and was all badass about it. But then the boss came out of the flipped carriage and two magic negative energy spells later I'm dead.
:rip: Alexander Lucas the sneaky thief.

Good news is though I got infested with a plague and bit by a ghoul so I rose from the dead and became some kind of new unholy abomination half ghoul half plague.


Now I'm playing shadowrun and holy poo poo is it fun. We're doing twitch streams of the game too and are about 4 games in I may link it some day if you guys wanna see me and myn erd friends play shadowrun.

ITs like DnD but in the future with cars and guns and vtols. Its great I play a rigger who hops into machines and is one with them. Like I literally am the car when I drive it. I just pimped Gertrude (my van) out with camo so I can make it look like anything.

The CBC investigation found the dungeon hole was marked as a confined space, but the work order for the dungeon crawl did not include any warning about the nitrogen nor was the holding company hiring these contractors prepared for a site emergency. Further,
