And could you hold off joining me up until I'm member 42?!?

- Jordan

He brings himself off his pedestral to join us.

i declair Jordan as number 42
welcome to the guild

That's not a pedestal - it's my shoes. Why do you think I trip so much?

[Trips.]

whadda 'ell is a phoson rifle?

ok...
someone get him some shoes form the stores...

I've made some exotic advances in particle physics. Doesn't seem to be much use when I'm surrounded by magic users, but basically it fires beams of a given cross-sectional area which intersect at a given distance, and any particles within the volume of space where the beams intersect find themselves annihilliated upon colliding with their respective antiparticles. For every particle in the region, its corresponding anti-particle is isolated from the quantum vacuum and juxtapositioned with it.

Unfortunately, there's a limitation on the maximum feasible beam radius - at a certain point for any given distance, the energy of annihillation becomes equal to the energy taken to produce the beam, so increasing the beam's radius is uneconomical except for very fine beams. However, it's still incredibly powerful for something so small.

(I'm assuming that if people can work outside physics at will, then it's perfectly legitimate for me to merely theorise to an insane degree. )

oh i just want people to use continuity
making up your own phisics is fine

*Enters*
People have been signing up without me? I dread to think what sort of -spit- maggots have been allowed to join in my absence.

- Jordan

hes the head of the inquisision... hes incharge of the torture

Acid Overrode, do you watch Hackers much?

You can get a beholder's eye at WOnko Incorporated, off of his page, I think...

But it can be restricted so you can't use it in the guild.


And learning magic is easy, just by a D&D book or AD&D game. And its got all the spells.

you can try.






it'll cost a bundle though, those things aren't cheap. the smaller ones'll be much less but they only cast one spell...

Hw atns the antimagic cone to combat peopel with magic.


Or course, then, once the magic is gone, you have to resort to kung fu stuff

or the fancy weaponry
