The idea is to stay as far from Hell as possible
Not to see how close we can get without being burned
It could be that a 'good' RPG is plausible
Yet, not likely from the lessons that I've learned
There's too much danger in these games for the likes of me
I'm afraid from all such wicked things the only answer is to flee

An ingenious idea, brother! This could be an excellent opportunity for me to practice GODLY heterosexuality!

Race: Pure Nordic

Class: A Real Man's Man–with the least amount of homer by volume possible. So, something like this I guess:



Except covered in King James Bible verses in war paint. And with way more muscle, leather straps, and seething rage for the abomination of sin.

Race: Eldritch Abomination
Class: Vendor
Alignment: Slightly Holy, follows a path of righteous redemption!
Weapon:

Description: A 7 foot tall, bipedal creature with mighty wings, any unholy people who gaze upon him go insane, the head of an octopus, a coat brimming with items to purchase. Can produce food from seemingly nowhere as an added bonus.

Aw, this is dead. Such a shame, this looked promising...
Maybe Elmer, GOD=Life, or one of the other True Christians could pick this back up again?

Why don't we continue it? Us against them, their "God" against whatever we believe in...

Example:

The party notices a large, hunchbacked creature rise from a dark section of the many alleyways of New York. It is Quel'Thon, the Guardian of Currency and he can smell the wealth on them gang in front of them.

Cranky and Mary attempt to shield their pockets, but a d24 success roll makes the spare change and $$$$ fly out of their jackets and Mary's deep purse. The total amount is $40.32

Quel'Thon then disappears from the mortal relam, but not before forcing Alphose to regurgitate a single penny.

Who here wants to play Sleasepits And Sinners™, the Christian alternative to Dungeons and Dragons?

Instead of goblins and orcs we face sinners. Instead of magic spells we use prayer.

Don't worry, you won't need to roll dice or do any elitist math. As the SpM (Sleasepit Master) I'll take care of all that for you. You just tell me what your character wants to do and I'll tell you what happens.

Here are some modules we can play:

1. Escape from the Synogogue of Satan
2. Deep in the depths of StarbucksStan
3. The Campus of Doom
4. Journey to the Ghetto of Terrors

We'll start playing right away, the first thing you do is choose your race and class.

Class: Artificer

I leave my house, see you guys and run to you, asking what you're doing.

Mr. Guy,

Thank you for asking. This game was discontinued a year ago and we've been concentrating on more urgent issues, especially praying and Worship. Had you read a few previous posts in this thread you'd probably have noticed that. We recommend that you join us in praising God and Jesus!



1 Thessalonians 3:10
Night and day praying exceedingly that we might see your face, and might perfect that which is lacking in your faith?


Yours in Christ,

Is the game still on? Having trouble deciding on a new game-master?

Remember that game-masters have to be good at resisting the temptation to let the power go to their heads and become petty tyrants. You have to watch out for the wrong personality types.

It's like if you're building a utopia, you should never allow in any perfectionists, harem-seekers, or architects. Those are what kill 99% of utopian projects.

But I was talking about game-masters. Petty dictatorial despots who get drunk on power because they've never had any, because even the lowest of the low look down on you, even the retard gets chosen before you in gym class, and you vowed to get payback someday, and you do not betray vows, vengence, vengence,

Not that I know anything about that, it's not like I was a guard at Abu Graib. Only the cool kids got to go there, those stuck up snobs think their dung don't smell, they didn't even run their dungeon very well. I would have tormented the inmates twice as viciously, I would have

Anyway, can I be game-master?

While I'll not risk eternity on the roll of the dice like many people, a game that can show what happens when you do not follow Gods Demands(r) and instead live life all willy-nilly like the story of the Ant and the Grasshopper. For the game to have real impact, especially on small children, it must be played with a level of realism and consequences. Spankings, beatings, with-holding of food and sleep deprivation are all very valid consequences to real life missteps and they rarely have long term ill effects.

I am a firm believer that all games have lessons they can teach. I remind little Timmy every day he owes me $750,000 for landing on my Railroad. I pay all the children for the work they do above their chores but Timmy sees his weekly $1.25 on the table and get scooped right back into my pocket. Six months have passed and every week, that lesson is reinforced to the little four year old along with the rest of the Hutchins Klan. Jesus Saves(r)

Game on!

I like the way you think. The adventure I've planning at has a lot of acid and spike traps, so everyone have some thumbtacks and vinegar ready. And no closing your eyes before you splash.

Wonder if I should add fireball spells, or would that risk getting out of hand?

Oh, I retired for a bit, but I'm back now.

The next adventure is called "The Corpse-choked Gladiator pits of the Democrat Primary Netherworld!" Who's playing?
