 Recently there has been some friction between the bone-type and ghost-type posters. The number of ghosts has been on the up and while they're technically allowed in the bone buds (the bone buds will take anyone) they feel a bit uncomfortable about the having no bones thing. For their part the skelebros have been unbearably smug, flashing their gang tag everywhere. It's the 21st century and ghosts have been allowed to haunt property, vote (sometimes in large numbers) and even appear on television sometimes so restricting spoopiness to skeletons should be a thing of the past. Let's make a ghost community badge! Someone made a Ghostin' Pals badge at some point and I spruced it up a little:  but i think our ghost buddies deserve better. Design a community badge and then BYOB can vote on the best one. I'll buy the winning entry and then maybe I can nag fluffie duckie into giving it to the ghosts who tell the best ghost stories in this thread (warning: I may not be able to nag her into doing this). There will also be stickers involved and I'll send a spoopy prize to whoever designs the winning

Qwerinty posted:you could make the skeleton one blue and the ghost one red so you could legitimately call it a gang tag i think we're supposed to call them community badges to prevent a continuation of the skeleton/ghost toussling that has tainted these forums for so long |

Zyla posted:Android blues you should be locked up...for making too many good posts in a row! funny how the joke whale never comes for Android Blues...almost as if they're on the same side. hmmmm don't take this the wrong way but liches creep me out. they don't know how to let go. I think they've clung on to being a ghost AND a skeleton for so long that they've forgotten how to really be either. it's a high price to pay for being a less-popular vampire

Android Blues posted:i'm tired in general of people excluding bards, sorcerers and hell, even witches from the aspirational magic skeleton narrative. this isn't the sole domain of those who were rich, lucky and male enough to be given a head start on their vile initiation into the chambers of susurrant mystery any more, and it's time people stopped acting like it was while i of all people can appreciate that the traditional skeleton career path of skeleton in barrel > skeleton warrior > skeleton archer is outdated and stultifying, there are some things skeletons simply will never be able to do just by virtue of the lack of fleshy parts. The mages might know a few cantrips but if they cast fire spells they tend to burn themselves and they can't utter the unspeakable words needed to raise the dead, let alone summon anything more fearsome than a cat. they just stand around looking ridiculous in their robes while the skeleton archers and priests soak up all the XP

bacalou posted:so you think magically reanimated skeletons can't talk because they lack vocal chords even when they can talk they don't have anything interesting to say. the youngest skeleton who you could legitimately call a skeleton "warrior" is like 400 years old, and he won't stop chattering his teeth about the difficulty of getting his flamberge zweihander sharpened there's a reason i type everything

I still think that a lich is just a ghost smushed into a skeleton but if that's what it takes to end the war between bone buds and ghostin' pals i'm all for it |

calling it for matoi, i'll upload the thing a bit later on congratulations! good job matoi! anyone who wants me to put a kind word in with the duckie for getting this tag attached should get in here and tell a ghost story, maybe that would make something happen. i dunno. I'm leaving the thread open so that happens. Congrats again Matoi!
