OK, Ameena, those are awesome. I particularly like the Chaos Stalking one and the Roasting Marshmallow one. Looking forward to seeing more!

I have started doing one Beo suggested, but recently my dad rediscovered Icewind Dale whilst looking on the CD rack for something to play...We never really got into it before but I've started a game too and have been playing that. So you might have to bear with me a while hehe

.
Oh, and that "look behind you" one is probably my favourite too - seems to be the most popular among those who have replied to this thread

There's something cute about Mophus and his smile though : )

Okay now I'm scared...

Oh, don't be scared, I'm here to protect you!

beowuuf · Post by **beowuuf** » Fri Jun 03, 2005 5:52 pm

But you are just a small girl with wings! : )

No, that's just my avatator, I'm actually a boy. She's one of my favourite characters.
So, Ameena, when's the next animation coming?
Oh, and Beowuuf, nice try. You won't make me stop protecting her, you're the one I'm protecting her against. LEAVE HER ALONE!!!!

Okay, a wuffy dude gives me a scary Mophus smile and now I suddenly have a dinky blue fairy protecting me? Hmm...I think I will just give loads of riddles to the wuff monster and while his brain is exploding I'll leg it

.
And the next animation will come...erm...when I can be arsed to finish it

Reading Cowsmanaut's message:

Moo to you, cowsmanaut! Just incase you didn't notice, My avatator is a Fighting Blue Fairy. And how'd you get fuzzface?

Reading Ameena's Message:

Hey! What would you rather have, beowuuf being mean to you or some Fighting Blue Fairy protecting you. Can you give me a guess at when that would be? Near? Far? Middle? And what do you mean by wuffy dude, beowuuf?

Post by **Ameena** » Sat Jun 04, 2005 3:01 am

Yeah Beowuuf is Beo, Wuffy, Wuff, Wuff Dude, the Wuff Monster...I know my avatar is Fippy (aka modified Wuuf portrait) but my DM-Ameena is actually modified Hissssa. But Fippy turned out cute (as he was meant to) and I like his pic better

Oh, that's interesting

Post by **cowsmanaut** » Sat Jun 04, 2005 3:16 am

he's also Fuzzface to me.. so I was adressing him.. saying that he's on his own as your pixie character tryies to jab him with your pin/sword

I once saw an Assassin on Ripley's believe it or not who used a pin to shoot thourgh glass... Pretty awesome stuff (Off-Topic)

beowuuf · Post by **beowuuf** » Sat Jun 04, 2005 8:34 am

Oooh, that would be something to see.

Poetry will easily distract me as a I go 'oooh, how did that get done so fast', or give me an on-topic thread calling out for an OT, or, you know, something shiny

I'm just a harmless grining maniac anyway, just like Mophus - why'd everyone always pick on him anyway! Leave Mophus alone! Sheesh, you people *shakes head and walks away, then spots a shiny penny rolling and chases it*

ADDF_Toxic · Post by **ADDF_Toxic** » Sat Jun 04, 2005 5:42 pm

I dropped that penny! Give it back!

Selie · Post by **Selie** » Sat Jun 04, 2005 8:47 pm

I thought Mophus was doing well enough until you all started making fun of his smile again. He's not insane or anything, he's just happy! He's an optimist! Maybe there's some sort of "special" attribute to that food he has at the beginning! But regardless, he's a nice, happy, friendly guy.

I am sad.

beowuuf · Post by **beowuuf** » Sat Jun 04, 2005 9:14 pm

Don't be sad, I dind't mean it, I'm sure everyone appreciates Mophus's happy outlook on life and 'special' breads

Post by **Ameena** » Sun Jun 05, 2005 1:55 am

I only made the animation as I neede an idea and I thought of the fact a lot of people on the forum think his smile is scary. After a few seconds of proper looking at his portrait (I've never really done so much before), I suddenly felt inclined to agree.
Incidentally, the way he walks off slowly at the end is meant to be almost kind of zombie/Terminator kind of slow walk of doom kind of...thing.

beowuuf · Post by **beowuuf** » Sun Jun 05, 2005 8:40 am

Lol, never picked up on that : ) You need the scary music.
Then again, I didn't recognise Mophus to start with, so I'm not exactly the sharpest falchion in the dungeon.

ADDF_Toxic · Post by **ADDF_Toxic** » Sun Jun 05, 2005 7:15 pm

I didn't recognize him either. You're not a weak little sword.

Post by **Ameena** » Mon Jun 06, 2005 1:28 am

Oh well...I thought maybe having him facing the front at the start with his smile might help...plus how many people are there in DM with a beard and a permanent scary grin?

ADDF_Toxic · Post by **ADDF_Toxic** » Mon Jun 06, 2005 2:38 pm

That's okay. It's hard to remember all the champions in Dungeon Master.

Trantor · Post by **Trantor** » Mon Jun 06, 2005 2:51 pm

I recognized Mophus immediately. But then again, I was the one who suggested him as a "hero"...

ADDF_Toxic · Post by **ADDF_Toxic** » Mon Jun 06, 2005 3:40 pm

Different people see things that others don't.

beowuuf · Post by **beowuuf** » Wed Jun 08, 2005 9:39 am

It would have been funny to have Arnie appear behind Mophus, see the grin, then run off too : )

Post by **Ameena** » Wed Jun 08, 2005 11:54 am

Lol how could I draw a stick man and make him look like Arnie? I suppose I could have him holding some kind of big gun and say "Hasta la vista, baby" before Mophus turns round. I suppose even someone like Lord Chaos would work...or something without eyes like a Screamer or a Rock Monster...or something meant to be scary or fearless like a Scorpion (shudder) or something undead.
Oh speaking of Screamers...recently I've been playing Icewind Dale (a game very like Baldur's Gate - exactly the same gameplay only different story and you can make your whole party rather than just one character), and guess what? It has Screamers! Well, Shriekers (but that's another name for DM Screamers). They don't move from the spot and they look more like mushrooms than trees but they have tentacle/roots that they wave around (well mushrooms don't have roots but pfah), and they scream of course, and alert mobs which spawn nearby so you can keep doing it and getting tons of exp, muahahaha.
Errmmm seem to be wandering off topic...and in a thread started by me, no less! Hmm I should get on with that animation but Icewind Dale is addictive. If I come up with any more ideas for poems I'll do them too. And I haven't done anything to the story since I finished Level 3 so they'll be permanently halfway down those stairs unless I bother to start the next section.

Procrastinator! At least I have a reason for not carrying on with stuff jsut now...I'm watching videos. I mean..looking for work *whistles*

Yeah, Dm stole scramers from D&D I believe : )
