Answer to the 100 rules of being an Overlord

Death Dealer · 01-10-2005, 12:47 PM

Well, I thought of this last night, and thought it would be a good idea. This is the 100 rules of being a true hero. (As far as I know, they don't already exist, so we're making them up.)

1. Instead of running around killing defenseless animals, I will go straight to the Evil person/entity/thing and kick it's ass. I'm a hero, so why shouldn't I?

2. When someone asks me to save their precious cat, I will rescue it, then eat it in front of them. I could've been killing things for gold rather than waste my time. I'm not the community Fire Department.

3. No more summoning, I almost fall asleep each time I have to call one of those bastards, and let's face it, our mage can do more damage for less effort.

Now you try....

Well...first of all. I made a comic some time back that demonstrates why cutting straight to the main boss is a very bad idea. The ass-kicking doesn't go that well when the evil entity can squash you like a bug.

4. Never go after one of the competent villains. If trapped, demand a last request...if they grant it, they are probably incompetent.

5. When you have a choice between an amazingly powerful sword, or saving the life of somebody dear to you, choose the sword, but take enough time making the decision so that it looks like you didn't make it in time to save said person.

What kind of hero would kill a defenseless cat infront of their defenseless owner?

2. When someone asks me to save their precious cat, I will do so immediatly. No doubt there will be a reward of money, potions, or starting a series of events which leads me to the most powerful weapons in the world.

You people have horrible ideas of True heroes.

5. When you have a choice between an amazingly powerful sword, or saving hte life of somebody, dear to you or not, choose the person. No doubt that person will be far more useful then the sword, which will be available later anyways through a series of mini-quest.

6. If anyone wearing a cloak and covered in shadows ever tells me to do something or go somewhere, I will ignore him. Anyone is a cloak is not to be trusted.

7. I will be nice to the annoying boy that follows me around because:
A) he is a relative and it's sort of my fault his family died.
B) He is really a princess in disguise, and I could use the money.
B.5) The princess will one day be totally hot too.
C.) He'll help me out when I need him the most.
D.) It's better than traveling alone.

8. If in a bar or tavern I will pretend to be totally wasted so as to lull my enemies into a false sense of security.

9. when trapped, i will point behind my enemy and loudly shout "what's that!?"

10. i will not use this time to run away or to harm my enemy, but rather to gauge whether or not they are incompetent.

11. when facing a competent foe i will attempt to use bribes

12. when facing an incompetent foe i will kill him off as soon as possible

13: When the arch-villian has be right where you right where he wants you, ask him what his plan is. This will give you 99% chance of defeating him.

My Lead Airbag · 01-10-2005, 04:55 PM

14: If the Leader of All Evil Forces confronts me at the begining of my quest, I will at first act brash and then proceed to fight poorly because he isn't going to kill me anyway. At the end of the battle, I will feign utter defeat, and he shall let me live because he believes me to be of no threat.

15: If I ever find an inanimate object that speaks, I shall not lose it because it will probably know my enemy's weakness.

CelesJessa · 01-10-2005, 05:33 PM

16. I will always be suspicious of anyone wearing all black, especially if their hair is equally, or even more impressive than my own.

17. If one of my "trusted" party members chuckles and then mutters something under their breath, then simply says "nothing" when I ask what they said, they will be killed. Anything worth muttering under their breath is either an insult, or some plot against me, so either way, I don't need them.

18. If the most evil villain is hanging onto the edge of a cliff, I will not listen to his sudden "change of heart".

19. If I am under interrogation, I will make a believable lie, and then hold to that lie as long as humanly possible.

20. If I have all of my friends with me, and a single bad guy challenges me to a duel, him verses me, I will politely refuse, then proceed to kick his butt with my entire party.

21. If the king or queen of a kingdom has deemed me "their only hope", I will request the assistance of their armies to help "their only hope" to succeed.

22. In addition to requesting for soldiers and knights, I will tell the king/queen that I require their finest equiptment as well.

Raiden · 01-10-2005, 06:32 PM

23. Under no circumstances will I try to take on an evil entity and his entire army with only a small ragtag group of adventurers, unless these adventurers grow stronger over the journey.

24. Never start a journey in a town that sells only crap weapons and crap armor. Walk down the road to the big city and grab something good.

25. If sexual tensions begin to grow between me and a female sidekick, I will not beat around the bush. I will talk it out with her before she either leaves in a temper, gets kidnapped, or is killed before my eyes.

26. Never leave on a journey without a sword. Ever. It's not even a question.
