"You need to get out of here," Sammy said as he saw the guys putting out the fire. "If you get to the top, we can help you get off the ship. Are there anyone else down here?"

If there's still room I would love to get Chill Out in on this :)

Happy birthday :)

"Okay, that didn't sound good," Sammy said as he tried to regain his balance. "I'm guessing you have more potent explosives than dynamite in the future?" Getting his equilibrium back, Sammy focuses on the voices they just heard. "Hello! Is there anyone down there!?"

Southside could work, that seems to be where both my characters are operating. Sammy could host from his apartment, as long as you don't mind a domesticated dinosaur begging for treats :P

Heck! It's even out in wee little Norway. I had tickets, but I had to work :cry:

Hi. Would anyone be up for a friendly poker match. In the tradition of Ben Grimm's (in)famous poker nights, it would be fun for some of the characters to meet up and play some cards, drink some beer and talk about the latest gossip. Both my characters would love to play, but I was mostly thinking of Sammy for this one. He'd host it himself, but have no place to host. Anyone interested in taking part in something like this?

"This might be too tight for you," Sammy told Silver as he saw the stairway. "And the stair might not hold the two of us." He motioned at Arrowhawk to show which two he meant. "Don't give me that look, I'm not calling you fat you big softy." Sammy sighed as he made his way down the stairs. "Make sure nothin' happens to the people up here."

Sammy looked confused. "Cape? Don't have no cape. But I'm here to help any way I can." Sammy motions for Arrowhawk to lead the way. "Name's Sammy. Sammy Six-Shooter. And this is my trusty steed Silver."

Happy birthday. Have some cake :)

Once on the ship, Sammy quickly made his way over to the archer from the bridge. Doing his best to calm people as he moves. "Don't worry, it doesn't bite." He could barely hear the kid asking for a ride. "Hi there partner," Sammy smiled, despite the chaos around him. He got of his dinosaur and bent down to the kid. "What's your name kid? When all this is over, I promise to let you ride him, but right now lets focus on finding your parents and get y'all to safety." As he said it, he noticed the frown on Silver's face, he didn't really like to let anyone else ride him. Finding anyone know would be like finding a needle in a haystack, Sammy thought as he looked around. Though he did spot one of the crew. "Make sure he's safe, and finds his parents," he said as he let the crew member take responsibility of the kid. Right now there were too many in need of help. With the kid taken care of, Sammy could resume his original plan. Making his way to the archer, he seemed to be talking to another crew member. Maybe he'd have some idea about how Sammy could best help out.

Sammy looked down towards the approaching ship when the black shape showed up. Inside his head, many thoughts were swirling. Why would a boat need a swimming pool? And if he jumped at the right time, would he be able to land in it? He looks up at the flying man, or so he presumed. "Much obliged stranger," he smiles. "I think there may be a theoretically possibility for me to jump and hit the big tub o' water on the back o' the ship. But Silver here is a real yeller when it comes to heights. So I'd like to take you up on your offer." He pats his companion to show him he still appreciate him.

And how far is it down to the ship? I have a even bigger problem. If only I had thought of getting a lasso, I could use it to lower myself down :p

Sammy held on to his stetson as he rode along the banks on his trusted steed, Silver the dinosaur. The few people around gave him strange looks, but he needed to take Silver out on a run. Give the dinosaur some exercise. If he didn't the big creature would go stir crazy, and as Sammy was on his third apartment since arriving in the future, he couldn't afford that. The last place wouldn't even return the security deposit. Suddenly his thoughts were interrupted by the sounds of the cruise ship. The biggest ship Sammy had ever seen had been traveling up and down the Mississippi, and this ship would put those to shame. As he stood there admiring the ship, he had no trouble seeing the explosion. "Golly old friends," he said patting Silver. "Seems fate had a reason for today's run." "Giddy up!" he exclaimed and the duo made their way up to the bridge, there they'd get a better view. As he got nearer he saw a figure drop down in the sea, and someone firing a gun of some sort.

I'm ready to do some good. So, what's the crisis gonna be?

Well... I don't know if he's the kind of guy you should put in charge. His distrust of technology, and his lack of understanding of modern society could be troubling.

Sammy isn't in any threads yet, so I'm in as long as there's room for him.

If my dad was this awesome I probably wouldn't have played RPGs now, I would rebel by being a pro athlete or something :p

I'm going away for the third weekend in a row and will not be able to post until Monday again. Have a nice weekend everyone :)

Yeah, I remembered it this time. I don't see what's wrong this time. Str costs 8 to get penetrating on all its ranks. Dex costs 6. now we're up to 14. Then Con costs 4, making it 18. Int gives me 4 points, making it back to 14. Wis costs 2, making it 16. And Charisma gives me 5 points, making the total 11. The only place I can think I'm doing wrong is on the penetrating Strength part, does it only cost 4? OLD Don't see what's wrong here either. It all adds up to 9. And the modifiers due to stats are right as far as I can see. Again, may be I've paid too much for Strength. Not trying to be difficult here, but this time I can't see where I've done wrong. But thanks for taking the time to try to help, I appreciate it :)

Sorry, guess I fumbled my Knowledge (rules) roll again. I just couldn't remember how I got such a high Str until you mentioned growth. D'oh. I think I have it right now, bought back penetrating, increased some saves, reduced Cha and increased Wis (and I remembered to update saves and skills accordingly). Hopefully it will now be in order.

For some reason I have added wrong. It looks to me that I've somehow managed to add together the ability modifiers instead of the actual ability. I think it is in order now. Removed penetrating, and reduced saves and charisma.

And I'm off again I've been asked by my University to go on a recruitment drive to high schools around the country . The guy who were supposed to do it is sick, so they asked me to take over on short notice, since I did it last year. Don't have the time, but I need the money. I'm leaving tomorrow, and will be back on Sunday. this time I should have more free time, and may post in the evenings. But if I'm unable to post, at least you know why.

And I'm back, barely. Got 6 hours of sleep this weekend, but the 13 hours I just woke up from were heaven sent :)

Sorry this took so long to get done, had a busy couple of weeks. Hopefully I have it right now, at least I feel like I know the system better now, than when I started making him. The biggest change this time is that I removed the Strike power. I also did a couple of trade-offs, though I'm not sure I could do that. If his Attack is 2 due to the -1 form innate & permanent growth, could he then get a +1 to the Save DC (using his full +4 strength)? I also increased his int again. I played with the idea of removing the mute disadvantage and instead have a talking dinosaur (though a dimwitted talking dinosaur). This led further to the thought of incrasing the dinosaurs intelligence above Sammy's and making him the brains of the duo But then I had to redo so much, I let it stay an idea. Anyway, enough rambling. Hope I have gotten the rules now :)
