Script[]
Red Mage | Okay. So we know that Garland is so evil and powerful that we don't stand a chance against him in a head-on attack. |
Fighter | Right! |
Black Mage | |
Thief | |
Red Mage | Therefore I propose the following: rather than waiting for our eventual and painful demise, we surprise attack Garland the very instant he returns! |
Thief | That's all well and good, RM, but we haven't much time before the fiend gets back! |
Red Mage | That's where my astounding collection of stats, feats, bonuses, and specialization come into play. I shall develop a brilliant plan of attack through a mere roll of the dice! |
Fighter | This plan of his best involve me and swords and hitting people with the swords. |
Black Mage | And just how do you propose to do that? I thought all these alleged 'stats' of yours were geared toward combat and magic, not thinking. |
Red Mage | So true, BM. So true. Thus, I must invoke the most hallowed and powerful art know to my secret cabal... |
Thief | So far I'd have to bet it's the power of being stupid. |
Red Mage | It is known among my kind as... THE RITE OF STAT SWAP! By simply altering my other stats, I can channel their points into my intelligence score, thus making me phenomenally smart! |
Red Mage scribbles on his character sheet. | |
Black Mage | We're as good as dead. |
Trivia[]
- The word phenomenally was misspelled "phenomenonally".
