I was just reminded of something pretty awesome.


It's a brand new day
Yea, the sun is high
All the angel sing,
because you're gonna die.



Joss Whedon ftw.

For my Raven Queen worshipping Shadar-Kai Avenger:

Audio vox Dominae. 
Illa te arcesidt, 
Quod tuus fortuna emitar.


Translated from Latin it is:
I hear the voice of my Mistress.
She has summoned you,
and I am to deliver you to your fate.






Personally I'd change fortuna to fatum.
Fortuna = fortune/luck.
Fatum = Destiny/Fate.
That way its more in line with the translation.

Speaking of latin:
Fatum est aeternum. Tota animi lacrimae pro salus. Ibi est haud salus sine dolor.
Damnation is eternal. All souls cry out for salvation. There is no salvation without suffering.
By no means perfect latin, but better than online translators.

I prefer the one-liner oath, myself.

Ioun:
There are infinite truths for the reverent, but for you, there is but one. This blade.
I forsee... a... new experience for you, shall we say... *chuckle*
Count yourself lucky. I will never know what you are about to discover.
Pop quiz! Don't know the material? Then... I suppose you'll fail!
Don't try to run. You don't make it.

Bahamut:
I have a message for Asmodaeus. Tell him that he can't hide in his prison forever.
You woke the Dragon. A poor choice.
All evil falls. Are you so arrogant as to believe that you will do any better then others?
Surrender and repent, and I will do whatever is in my power to grant you mercy hereafter... and yet you refuse... May the Abyss treat you well.
All the conditions have been cleared. You cannot win. Surrender to Bahamut's mercy... as I have none for you.
The only ones who may kill... are those prepared to be killed.
Well, at least I've still got my Compendium...

In that case, don't address the target at all.  Instead, address his friends
"Beware the coming wrath.  Flee now and save yourselves."

Tangent: my Invoker speaks the words of Creation.  What you hear (after your mind recovers from the shock)
An'nal nathrack.  Uthvaas bethod.  Dokhiel de'en vay.

     If I was writing the Tome of Lore, I would let Auppenser sleep. But I also would have him dream.
     In his dreaming he re-activates the innate powers of (some) mortal minds. Or his dreaming changes the nature of reality - currently very malleable thanks to Spellplague &c. Or whatever really cool flavor text and pseudo-science explanation people react positively to.

You know, I like that better than the explanations for the Spellplague.

These are all good and make sense!  I just can't come up with something that's not covered here and is not completely ridiculous.

My characters:
Spoiler: Show

Active Characters:
LFR Half-elf StarLock6     Gondolin Nightstar
AoA Dwarf Guardian Druid6     Narvik from House Wavir

Character A-building:
Neverwinter Dwarven Invoker / Heir of Delzoun / worships Silvanus (!)
"Truenamer" - speaks Words of Creation

Concepts I'm kicking around:
"Buggy" Wizard - insect flavor on everything
Halfling Tempest Fighter - just because nobody else is doing it
Shifter Beast-o-phile Druid - for PoL campaign

First things first: Love this thread.


I am surprised not to see the one johnny cash used:
My name is Sue, how do you do? Now you gonna DIE! (from the song a boy named Sue).

Who said there are no assurances in life? I can assure you this is going to hurt. (from Chandra's Incinerate)

(spoken with a heavy russian voice)
It is day of judgement (from the RA2 apoc tanks)

I will not banish you, I will show mercy, I will kill you. (inspired by romeo and juliet: "Ha, banishment? Be merciful, say ‘death,' For exile hath more terror in his look, Much more than death.")


I am currently building an Elf avenger of Sune. Haven't seen many appropriate phrases for that character so any suggestions are welcome.

Avenger of Sune: "True love casts out fear."
Avenger of Loviatar: "I'm gonna love this..." while wearing an outfit that advertises that you have kinky desires and the target is not going to enjoy the experience.

I have to find a copy of Dune and re-read it.  I don't remember the whole of these:

Bless the Maker / Bless the coming and going of Him / May His passage cleanse the world.  (An invocation for attention and aid from his deity)

I will not fear. / Fear is the mind-killer. / Fear is the little death that brings utter annihilation. / I will face my fear. / I will allow it to pass over and through me. / The fear shall be gone, and I shall remain.  (Psychologically centering himself for what he is about to do.)

The lips acquire stains, the stains become a warning.  It is by will alone that I set my mind in motion.  (Probably should be ''blade acquires' and 'blood becomes' in the first sentance and 'hand' or 'blade', not 'mind' in the second.  Again, preparing oneself, not announcing to the enemy.)

my goliath barbarian simply looks to the paladin and utters:

"who crunk hit?"

then proceeds to barrel through the fight in true beserker fashion.

My Predator Druid started his first campaing introduction with "you wouldn't like me when i'm angry"

But the kicker is the Deva Shaman i'm playing now. its RP'ed to come from my Spirit Companion when he pops up behind an enemy. whispered in the enemies ear "boo."

you could make an arguement for a darkpact warlock using the old batman line "ever dance with the devil in the pale moon light?"

LOL, makes me want to go and take the multiclass feat with my shaman too.

Can't believe anyone hasn't come up with this one perfect for an Isolating Avenger
