Waiting on the gym carpool

Its been so chilly here that Flash has been wearing his hoodie sweatshirt since yesterday afternoon. He's undoubtedly more comfortable in it and he adores having the doors open so he can sniff the air as it blows through the house, but there's something rather odd about having to put a sweater on a dog. In July, mind you.

Our little RPG group got together last night, again. Talk about a slow night! We spent half the time roaming the town looking for a thief and a woodsman. You can tell how little folks know about this sort of thing when they went looking for a thief at a prison. Duh. That's where you find the crappy thieves. Me, I went to the blacksmith. They know everything and everyone.

I'm still a bit miffed about not having a spotted war pony for my character. So much so, I'm bribing the DM with truffles. Because really folks, think logically here, do you really want your 4'6" archer to be shooting from behind you when you all are above 7 feet tall? No, you don't. You want her up nice and high where she can shoot over your heads. If you don't believe me, I'd be happy to shoot you in the ass to prove it to you. I took Healing, so I'll fix it afterwards. May I remind you, I'm the *only* healer on our quest or is that unnecessary? *WEG*

Trust me. Spotted War Ponies are good for your tushies. Give me one.

What are you playing?

[tryst-inn.livejournal.com]

Prophecy. With the guy who created it.

Talk about nerve wracking!

[saffronhare.livejournal.com]

Perfectly practical in every way. And you're thinking ahead to the camouflage properties of the spots, too.

[wild-heart.livejournal.com]

Do you get to wear chaps if you get the pony?

[tryst-inn.livejournal.com]

I certainly hope so!

We bought horses last night too! And then the stupid bugbears almost killed mine, thank God the DM didn't confirm the crit. I mean, I went out of my way to buy a war horse and he didn't bite the bugbear or anything. Stupid horse, stupid dead bugbear that drug me down the mountainside, I have mountain-burn on my leg.

Tell the DM if you can't have a pony you want a full sized Shire. Then you will be at least 6-8 feet off the ground, AND your horse will have hooves the size of dinner plates. Dinner plates which can be iron shod. With spikey things.

ROTFLMAO

[lore-of-lore.livejournal.com]

It's true, although the spikey things are actually just like acorn shaped metal nut things to add traction for horses that do a lot of work on concrete surfaces etc, so draft breeds that go in parades and cross country competors, but they don't need to know that... And also, you'd be high enough to shoot over their heads, but you'd still have a human shield if you stayed behind them! *evil cute face* Ooo I also just remembered the last I did an RPG night with my bro and some of his friends, one of the guys (I think he was playing a dwarf) had a warhorse or something that he kept in an amulet...

[herbmcsidhe.livejournal.com]

I used to have a giant bat in an amulet...

[lore-of-lore.livejournal.com]

That could be more handy than a warhorse! She could fly above them and shoot her arrows then.

[tryst-inn.livejournal.com]

Yeah. Don't you think they've already all suggested I take a skill in levitating?

I'd rather be a shortie on a war pony than a flying midget. Thanks but no thanks.

[lore-of-lore.livejournal.com]

It's ok. I'd take the pony too. I <3 Ponies *squees quietly in a corner*
