Weave

Human Paladin, because his epic spiral into darkness will be all the more relatable to my audience (of humans).

Batman or Ironman?

Elemental_Elf

Which rich, womanizing playboy is better - the one who wears a mask to hide his tortured soul or the one who built himself power armor because he's made of awesome sauce and win? I think we all know Awesome sauce > Emo.

Jack Nicolson's Joker or Heath Ledger's Joker?

For finite types, like human beings, getting the mind around the concept of infinity is tough going.  Apparently, the same is true for cows.

Jack Nicolson's Joker or Heath Ledger's Joker?
Mark Hamill's Joker, but if those are the only options, Heath Ledger's.

Choose your mount: giant zombie chicken or robot cow.

What?
England.
Just a conspiracy of cartographers, then?

Elemental_Elf

I'd say.... Robot cow, if only to avoid the putrid smell of rotting chicken.

The Aliens are invading and they've just blown up all of the world's major cities with their massive doomsday death ray! Conveniently, you have been given super powers by a mystical Guru while traveling in the Himalayas. Which powers do you possess and do you choose to fight with or against the Alien Invaders?

LordVreeg

I have been given the ability to speak alien and I set myself up as a tour guide/ambassador.

lover or fighter?

Weave

Lover. (Good one, by the way, I had to think about that).

If one of your own players asked if he or she could have the honor of GMing a game in your campaign setting while you got to play, would you let them? (I realize this question might beg for more detail, but I'll keep it simple and see what ya'll say).

Elemental_Elf

Depends on the campaign and what I have planned but... If the player had a one shot adventure in mind and it doesn't interfere with the 'main plot', then I prolly wouldn't have a problem :)

Have any of your players DMed a session or a campaign in a world you created?

Weave

Sadly, no. I think they're more afraid of disappointing me within my own world... I should probably try and make it clear that wouldn't be the case. Who knows, maybe I'll get someone to finally take over my world once I've moved on (i.e., dead :))

Would you rather be unexpectedly short a player during a crucial session, or unexpectedly have an additional person show up during a crucial session asking if they could play (they being a complete stranger to tabletop games)?

In the words of vreeg, we can always use more corpses... I mean players. Bring on that extra player.

Of all the settings on the cbg which one would you be the most fine with getting permanently transported to?

Weave

Oh my, that's quite a tough question... to be perfectly honest, I can't say I've looked over them all as cleanly as I wished, so my selection is limited. So, I guess if I had to risk being transported somewhere I'd go all out... maybe to Steerpike's Bizarrerie or something weird and fantastical.

I'd like to repeat Nomadic's question, just to get another response. It's a good question (I hope I'm not stepping out of bounds by doing this).

Elemental_Elf

I'd like to be transported to... Gosh Celtricia is nice... Steerpike's settings are a bit too crazy, Mare Eternus is a bit too cataclysm-prone for my taste... Savage Age is pretty cool but a bit too Greek... I'd stand out in Clockwork Jungle... Bronze Setting is a bit too primitive... Can I give a cop out answer and choose my setting of InnerSOL? It has space travel, mecha, America... Everything you need! :P

Same question (Nomadic's again) with the caveat that you cannot choose your own setting :)

LordVreeg

I'd be somewhat at home in the Cadaverous Earth.
Quite honestly.

Marvel or DC?

Marvel all the way. DC has too many 1 dimensional heroes for my tastes.

Who would win in a fight - Spider-Man or Bat-Man?
