RPG Class Test Oct. 8th, 2005 @ 06:43 am
Mystic Theurge
37% Combativeness, 30% Sneakiness, 94% Intellect, 61% Spirituality
Brilliant and spiritual! You are a Mystic Theurge!


Score! You have a prestige class. A prestige class can only be taken
after you�ve fulfilled certain requirements. This may mean that you�re
an exceptionally talented person, but it probably doesn't.

The Mystic Theurge is a combination of a cleric and a mage. They
can cast both arcane and divine spells, and are good at both, making
them pretty terrifying on the battlefield. They have more raw
spellpower than just about any other class.


You're both intelligent and faithful, but not violent or deceitful. I guess that makes you a pretty good person.



My test tracked 4 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender:

Mind-blank. I blame the music.

The usual thing. Memes. This one is the book-and-song lines.


The books - a random sampling of the stuff in my room. Can't get to the stuff in the basement, which comprises the great majority of my library. Also, one of those books isn't actually mine.

Oh, it will. It will. *grins evilly*

Ehh. It's okay, I guess.


Ahh, shush.

Music is awesome, isn't it?

Heh. You know how a lot of good music has a phrase or a sequence of notes, and sometimes several phrases or measures, that are PURE GENIUS? And the best songs have like a whole stanza or several, or a lot of the music, like that? And when the lyrics and the music mesh, even better?


Anyway, why can't someone write a whole song, that is GENIUS like that? -_-;;
» Pfft.
Heh. So I was looking at the Tenny/Kyla exchange, and it struck me that I needed this too. Therefore, let me present Chi.

*swishes tail idly*

Somehow, I doubt they care.

*grooms*


You know what, I don't care whether they care or not.
... *facepalms* Just drop it, 'kay?

Your funeral.

So, there you have him. Chi is a black American Shorthair cat, very smart-alecky and cynical. He's my lazy cynical side.
» The uncertainties of life.
Gah. Life... What to make of it?

So many things that are uncertain. My productive periods are few and far between, and usually not in the areas I need them to be in. My willpower sucks. I can't translate my ideas to reality worth spit. And that's just me. Other people... Gah.

Two of my friends have just broken up. I still don't know why. They seemed like they were perfect for each other. They weren't the first couple I knew, who broke up, either. Call me an incurable romantic, but THAT AIN'T RIGHT!

Hmph.

» Stuffed COWS, redux.
Heh.

Anyway. Another Stuffed COWS moment. Another session we were playing, this one was actually before the one where the goths fooled around. Although they were here too...

Anyway. The DM is talking, I'm looking at my character sheets, thinking. Also looking at PHB. Thinking. All of a sudden, I'm registering silence. So I look up.


Everybody is staring at me expectantly. I'm thinking, WTF did I do now? and the DM goes, "Where are you from?" I go, "Uhh, Russia?" She's like, "God, your accent is so cool!" (emphasis actually hers. yeah.)

I blush, duck my head, and go "Thanks..."




Weird moment.



» Stuffed COWS.
So I was at Stuffed COWS last weekend. An RPGA-sponsored gaming convention. Locally held. COWS = Chicagoland Order of Weekend Screwballs. Look them up on YAHOO Groups if you're in the area.

Anyway. I was there. Gamed. Living Greyhawk, mucho fun. This one cute girl, I think she may have been flirting with me. Should have asked for her number. Owell.

One session we were playing. We're fighting the boss of the module, a rather easy female spellcaster. And the goth guy and girl, who play matched his'n'hers half-orc barbarians, start messing with each other. He's batting at her, she's grabbing him back, it goes on. We try to get them to focus on the game, no dice. So I go, "Please! We don't need to see half-orc mating rituals!"

... The whole table collapses in a fit of giggles.




Did I mention I had fun? :D :D :D

A photo will be posted in a few weeks, maybe. Sadly, only one, and not of the goths. I really should have wielded my camera more. :/



» Life sucks. Then you die.
Bleh. Skipped classes one more week. Wasted a buncha money. Skipped work one day, too.

On the plus side, my comics link page is done, for the comics I'm reading currently. Had to weed a few out for being dead, defunct, ended, on permanent hiatus, or otherwise pear-shaped. Now I just need somewhere to host the damn thing. Along with about a hundred banners. Someplace that won't screw up half the code and half the banners, like prohosting does. HELP!!! >_<

And, if someone is any good with cgi-bin and/or java scripting and can help me out by making some code to choose banners randomly given a few parameters, like to choose from saaay crfh1.gif crfh2.jpg crfh3.gif (parameters passed being something like crfh,{1.gif,2.jpg,3.gif}), PLEASE HELP!!!

Also, Nightwish - The Carpenter is currently my favorite song. Nightwish - Tutankhamen is in second place. Then Nightwish - Beauty of the Beast and Nightwish - Deep Silent Complete. hmm... I think that's it, for now.
» Bleh
Man. I feel awful lately. Depressed, low on energy, apathetic... yeah, pathetic too... skipping work, skipping class, not doing homework... >_<

Found a couple new comics though. I really should catch up on my comics... and make a link list... In fact, I should republish my website... and continue my comic... and write my stuff... bleh, so much to do, so little drive.

Going now.


» LiveJournal
Thus, my first post. Let me begin by saying that LiveJournal approaches command-line complexity in all its configuration options. Many of the options are not explained, and those that are, are often very vague. Furthermore, you have to do a lot of browsing through the site to find all the options you want. I'm not even done yet, after what, a month or two since I registered.

Now, for myself. Your standard geek. With a few caveats. More about that later.

My interests? Games. Comics. Books. Movies. TV. Music. I like to write, draw, sing, code, hack, do certain crafts, and stuff like that. Your not-so-average dilettante. Jack of all trades, master of none.

I'm working part-time at UPS. Sunrise shift. Which means I go home around the time the sun rises. Studying at the local community college, Associates of Science in Computer Science and Computer Engineering. Blowing off Intro to Sociology for this. Yeah, I'm stupid.

Bah. Out of thoughts for now. Except for this:
http://eigelb.at/HP/Links/SpecialEffects/Grappa/GrappaWH_White/index.html

Go. Now.
