...as in D&D, what would ILM regulars be?

My guesses:

- Ned as lawful neutral paladin.

- Alex in NYC as chaotic evil warrior (with some fire spells up his sleeve).

- Lord Custos as chaotic neutral wizard.

Yours?

Me and Ally as those scary looking chiXors in incredibly uncomfortable chainmail bikinis astride fire-breathing dragons and bearing improbably swords. Fuck yeah.

Haha! I've heard the Dead Ale Wives audio track before -- there's one other one at least where a female gamester gets involved -- but that was an extra slice of genius. Dan Perry to thread even more than before!

Me and Ally as those scary looking chiXors in incredibly uncomfortable chainmail bikinis astride fire-breathing dragons and bearing improbably swords. Fuck yeah.

in what way would this be different from you and Ally in real life?

I would be a neutral neutral Cleric. obviously.

that link is amazing

― gabbo giftington (dubplatestyle), Monday, 1 September 2003 17:03 (twenty years ago) link

I second that.

― Mike Taylor (mjt), Monday, 1 September 2003 18:46 (twenty years ago) link

There was another (possibly earlier) flash animation that used that same Dead Alewives audio track. You can check it out here.

This is so true it's not even funny. I want to wear a viking helmet. I'm wishing I knew anything about D&D right now, weirdly. PS Kate, I just got the DW's new album, holy shit. Why did they not hire on Nick Rhodes years ago???

― Ally-zay (mlescaut), Tuesday, 2 September 2003 02:23 (twenty years ago) link

trife as a lawful neutral Juicer from RIFTS.

― brock (brock), Tuesday, 2 September 2003 02:53 (twenty years ago) link

if ilm were D&D, it'd be second edition.

brock - I GET IT!

― vahid (vahid), Tuesday, 2 September 2003 03:02 (twenty years ago) link

Uh, can Paladins be lawful neutral? Didn't think so.

I'm a Mindflayer. Dig the facial tentacles and stuff...

You look so cute, Nick.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 2 September 2003 04:30 (twenty years ago) link

sorry, I meant half-giant/half-halfling, um dual-class ambidextrous thief/fighter with scimitar specialization in both hands. Yeah.

Why would we be second-edition as opposed to first or third? I vote for first so I can be a funky monk.

― teeny (teeny), Tuesday, 2 September 2003 18:30 (twenty years ago) link

half-giant/half-halfing = either...

A) some poor halfling woman got ripped to shreds
B) some poor giant woman didn't feel a thing

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Tuesday, 2 September 2003 18:41 (twenty years ago) link

i would be a chaotic neutral dark elf thief/mage with a +1 shortsword and a penchant for pottery.

― Felcher (Felcher), Tuesday, 2 September 2003 18:43 (twenty years ago) link

- Ned as lawful neutral paladin.
That'd work.
- Alex in NYC as chaotic evil warrior (with some fire spells up his sleeve).
Specifically an "Anti-Paladin" who worships Jaz, the Hyperborean God of Honouring the Fire.
- Lord Custos as chaotic neutral wizard.
Nnnnnot really. Chaotic Good Druid/Monk.

And to answer the main question: Tanya Headon is the DM, and Tom Ewing is Assistant DM.

― Lord Custos Epsilon (Lord Custos Epsilon), Tuesday, 2 September 2003 18:48 (twenty years ago) link

if ILM was a roleplaying game: JONWILLIAMS would be DM, and I a 13th level chaotic neutral assassin named squaxxar shimmersauce with 4 charisma.

― gygax! (gygax!), Tuesday, 2 September 2003 18:50 (twenty years ago) link

Custos: "Hail and Well, Met, noble Shimmersauce!"

if ILM was a roleplaying game = "castigate"

I am the guy who helps to make the potions that everyone else is using, but, alas, I go on no quests myself.

that link is the funniest thing I have seen in a long time.
