I swear my RP group are stalking my manga obsession.

To list the evidence:

1. One of the NPCs is a precognitive called Oracle.
2. A quote from tonight: "We tend to rely on the priest for violence".
3. Another one: "I've figured out how to foil a telepath. Think the Really Annoying song at them, or think really bad puns very loudly. Or just think about sex. Squelch, squelch, squelch."

It comes of playing a superhero campaign, I suppose. At least I'm avoiding the twin pitfalls of (a) a ridiculous codename, and (b) spandex.

Or just think about sex. Squelch, squelch, squelch.

. . . which is precisely what one character did in my Space:1889 campaign when Victorian!Schuldig was around :-)

I bet he loved it ;)

It ertainly makes a tableful of men look very surprised when the only girl in the room talks about sex more than they do. Especially when I have a male character with standard male geek social skills...

sounds relatively sane for a superheroes games ;)
Certainly beats our telekinetic bear who just wanted to be a wrestler

Personally, I'm in denial about the whole superhero bit. Sure, I can do funky things, but spandex? A Proper Silly Name? Not a chance!

you mean "The Amazing Spleen" doesn't grab you? Are you not human? ;)

Now, if I had superspleen powers, I'd *definitely* make the most of it.

"Catastrophic System Failure Boy" doesn't have the same ring, sadly.

hehe :)
I quite like the sound of "Man Mountain Man"
So when he comes for the bad guys they cry out "Oh man, here comes Man Mountain Man, man!"
