What Lewa Can't Do in the BZPRPG

Recommended Posts

Please note that this actually has nothing to do with the BZPRPG, other than subject matter.

 

1. "Swag" is not an element.

2. A character's weapon of choice cannot be longer than the character is tall.

3. There is no Kanohi mask of Partying.

4. Under no circumstances am I to say the words "choo choo".

5. Sadly, I cannot name a character after myself.

6. "The Truffle Shuffle" is not a specialized combat maneuver.

7. Explosives are bad.

8. Thrown combustibles are bad.

9. Caustic grenades are bad.

10. Incendiary kunai are bad.

11. Fireworks are bad.

12. Bags of rocks are bad.

13. I cannot use the Kanohi mask of Stealth to turn on all the water faucets in a building and remain undetected.

14. My Matoran cannot best a Skadi in a fistfight, no matter how awesome that would be.

15. Dogs are not a playable species.

16. My characters are not skilled in napping.

17. Snipes do not exist, and I am not to go on a quest to search for them.

18. If I do find a Snipe, I am to kill it discreetly before it lays eggs. Preferably in the wilderness, next to a body of water.

19. I should avoid archers and Electricity Toa. Or Electricity Toa archers.

20. If I cooperate with another PC, I will not completely ruin their agendas in the most embarrassing ways possible.

Morally unambiguous.

Actually, no. Plots are an integral part of stories, even if they are subtly woven into the framework and can only be hinted at. There will always be a recurring theme through a story, and sometimes they allow the reader to make their own conclusions.

 

 

For sale: baby shoes, never worn.

For example, the above story is only six words, and has been attributed to Ernest Hemingway (there is no definite proof, however). At first, it seems as if there is no plot, but if one delves deeper, a reader can form their own conclusions. My opinion is that first-time parents had eagerly bought baby shoes for their upcoming baby, who was sadly stillborn when it came out into the wider world, forcing them to sell the shoes.

 

Common opinion, actually.

 

However, although your 'comedy' (well, more list of random things) does hint at matters that have occurred in the past, they are disconnected and disjointed, giving no sign of a plot.

 

Also, you misspelt Skakdi.
