You begin your life as an adult, and you don't have to go to school anymore or go through adolescence, etc. 74. You can have someone repeat exactly what he/she said in a conversation. 75. The Ten Commandments? Nah. No one ever goes to church. 76. There are only about two Churches: Anama and the Divine Lucre. (I'm not sure if there are more.) Thanks, Scorp, I didn't see that. :cool: -------------------- You go girl!

86. Goblins, faeries, "The Power Of Yale" and other fantasy things existed during and before the time of the Romans. 87. All soldier captains look female, no matter what gender. 88. It's all right to take things out of shelves, barrels, etc, but it is taboo to put things back in them. Unless you happen to be a roman or a celt.

104. It is okay to absorb that green liquid from canisters. You'll either become stronger, or learn something. 105. Just looking into a sarcophagus will cause you to become more proficient at: combat, conning/leading people, lock picking, and/or magic. -------------------- "The hippogryph is an amazing creature rarely seen outside of the wild.

113. Killing a cow, or any other livestock, is such a grave offence that everyone from the mayor to the beggers will not hesitate to sacrife their own lives in an attempt to gain retribution. 114. If you have enough money and have killed enough people, you can actually train yourself to be smarter. 115. If you have enough luck, you can survive almost anything. 116. Familiars are almost never happy. -------------------- Need a pet? Need cheap labor? Buy a Moose! Take the Personality Test! INTJ 78% 33% 44% 22% Huzzah for the Masterminds!

119. It never, ever rains, snows, hails, etc. 120. Although a huge, well-equipped army complete with hugely powerful archmagi cannot take on a huger, better-equipped army complete with powerful dervishes, six fairly competent adventurers can kill a fort of them with little problem. 121. The above mentioned competent adventurers can sack hundreds of cities, and townspeople are always murdered easily. 122. There is no police, no justice system. Only guards patrolling the town waiting for one wrong step, when they will be given excuse to instantly murder you - unless you happen to be six competent adventurers. 123. If your lucky enough and you've been well enough trained in tool use, you will never get caught stealing. 124. Everyone is a manic xenophobe. 122. There are hostile monsters roaming all over and they always travel in packs. 123. Only one eighth of houses have more than one room, and none of them have a fireplace, despite the lack of modern heating. 124. Only one city on the surface of the earth has sewers. 125. There are no toilets anywhere in the world - except for in festering monster pits. 126. BEWARE THE SECOND COMING OF THE GREAT SPIDER GODDESS -------------------- Aces off.

127. Even the thinnest walls can keep out hordes of monsters. 128.

130: no matter which town you're in, killing a stray cat, dog, or lizard is a crime punishable by death. 131: However, if you encase them in barriers and cast quickfire on them, or kill them with a spell like protective circle, it's okay. The same goes for doing it to people. Posts: 1918 | Registered: Sunday, October 13 2002 07:00 |

136. Sometimes you get the hacker, sometimes the hacker gets you. 137. Only 10% of the world's population can survive. That 10% will be the ones with the lead pipes. 138. No crime is so terrible that a few errands done for private citizens can't restore your public reputation. —Alorael, who has learned all kinds of things from Irony Central. A good number of them don't bear repeating in polite company. Posts: 14579 | Registered: Saturday, December 1 2001 08:00 |
