Favourite CSB character

LOL, just because she decided to enter the dungeon using only a wickedly sharpened apple as a weapon is no reason to mock Syra : )
I think it's unfair to call Mophus a psycho, he's just a little too happy, that's all.

Eh, I don't know why the CSB characters just don't seem to have as much life as the DM ones...maybe it's just because they are there and not tied directly to the game like the characters in the Hall of Champions are.

why does everyone pick on mophus still? *clings to selie*

Hahaha ... we can be the Mophus Defender Team! We can make tshirts and everything.

Honestly, I think it's because the CSB people come in teams. In DM, you have these varied individuals and you have to form your own team out of them. I mean, yeah, Boris and Tiggy are both tiny halfling mages of sorts, and Leif and Syra are the elves, but that's honestly about as similar as you get with that game. The CSB people come in pairs or complete sets. That kind of makes them feel more gimmicky, and there's less personality, less originality. Like ... "oh, I think I'll go with the fairy tale creatures! Or, no, I'll take the team of undead!" With DM, you put together a team however you wanted, out of whomever you wanted. And just look at the different relationships between the teams in our various DM stories to see what that will do.

you know what, I think you hit the nail on the head - like 'Ooh, I have the Four Horsemen of the Apocolyse, whahahah, we'll take over the dungoen and keep doing Chaos's good work! Whahaha...Aww, please, one little Apocolypse? Bah, ooooooooooooook, we'll destroy the corbums' *whistle*

hehehe, mophus defender teams sounds fun, ill eat the next person who insults mophus =P im getting a little hungry anyway ^^

i thought it was linflas and syra who were elves?

speaking of syra, syra looks like one who would eat his copmanions? hmm, sorry for not being noticed for doing that =P *grins* hehe, that only depends who my companions were, if you were them, i wouldnt eat ya... *looks about then whispers to selie and beo* id still eat paul though =P

Yeah, Syra and Linflas are Elves. Leif is the Viking-type dude with all the red hair and big moustache.

Dammit, Syra's a girl! First Tiggy, now Syra -- you're all obsessed with gender reassignment!

strange enough, elves and faires get often confused with each other, for example the tinkerbell-thingie in peter pan is claimed to be an elf (in the german version at least). the quote-fairy in DM is of course tiggy.
we also have "elben" (tolkien-translation) and "elfen" (gigax-translation and of course all fairies) in germany. i think, tolkien had his translator use the b-elves (hehe) to annoy gigax as sole purpose.
rather confusing if you are not inside fantasy-stuff. for me, ad&d monster library is always right and many follow them, like charmed (at least, as far as i see it).

*sniff*

As a coincidence, I just happened to re-read that thread today! Great fun!

Sometimes I think somebody has hit HIM over the head!

LOL, alright, I aplologise for bismirching the idea of the Four Horsemen of the Apocolyse!

Ii wasn't havign a go, honest, I too think of them exactly like that, despite what their 'real' names are supposed to be!

Selie · Post by **Selie** » Mon Mar 21, 2005 11:56 pm

Did I say Leif? I meant Linflas. Cut me some slack, they're both dudes whose names begin with L and my brain isn't always fully functional. Wah wah wah.

There are so many different words for different kinds (or even the same kinds!) of fantasy creatures that I have given up trying to figure out exactly what name to use for which. I use the names I like, since I'll have to clarify and explain anyway.

Wu Tse is a GIRL. C'mon, am I going to have to become the Character Defense Squadron now? I could do it, you know ... singlehandedly be a squadron...

... I'll just recruit a couple screamers and those stupid coatl things that everyone hates.

Sera · Post by **Sera** » Fri Mar 25, 2005 1:01 pm

i like the Couatls though, am i the only one who likes them? ;.;

Selie · Post by **Selie** » Fri Mar 25, 2005 10:39 pm

I've never gotten far enough to fight them. I think. I'm not sure. I just know that when I read the "going through CSB for the first time" thread, everyone was full of fear and hatred for those guys.

Sera · Post by **Sera** » Fri Mar 25, 2005 11:44 pm

poor things, couatls and dragons have always been in my good side

Trantor · Post by **Trantor** » Sat Apr 02, 2005 7:44 pm

I like Couatls.

And I am sure that Gando likes to wear his wife's underwear... He has that certain expression on his face...

Sera · Post by **Sera** » Sat Apr 02, 2005 8:19 pm

whoopie, now theres 2 who like them... >.>... <.<... i dare ask why you thought that up about gando though, expression or not, thats just sooo wrong =P

Trantor · Post by **Trantor** » Sat Apr 02, 2005 8:22 pm

Just look at his face. He is the friendly-grandfather-type that like to tell some good stories to the neighbor's kids, but his kind and open face hides a dark secret... I am absolutely sure...

Sera · Post by **Sera** » Sat Apr 02, 2005 8:25 pm

ah well, we will never know until we ask the creators =P

Champions of that infamous dungeon...
excuse me as i contribute something on topic :p

Although I have a tendency to employ female characters in the party, Tunda (the Centaur kid) Kazai (the sequestered Ninja) and Itza (the funky Aztec) seem to be the best allrounders.
Adding Petal for mana resources or Sting to carry the loads makes a great quartet, as discovered in my recent (5th? 6th?)visit.

Still I enjoyed much more playing with my imported DM characters who had formerly been reincarnated and made their path to the higher master degrees (never became archmasters though)...

I like petal, if I remember her name correct, she's the only one I remember...I think...but I reincarnate her and call her Sara. That's why she's my avatar(You might not notice what I'm talking about if I change my avatar before you see this.)
