Re: OOTS #1154 - The Discussion Thread
One of my favorite touches of Thor: Ragnarok-- and something I don't understand why Game of Thrones hasn't done, or really any other massive-Nordic-and-or-icy-weather-land battle scene in a movie has, to my recollection-- was the use of "The Immigrant Song" for an ass-kicking battle scene.

Re: OOTS #1154 - The Discussion Thread
Yay, long awaited weapon upgrade!
Nice twist to the prophecy too, making it about Durkon's choice to kick ass.

Oh, wow, YES. I was not expecting that. This is going to be so great.
The Greatest Threads Of GiantITP (in my opinion):
A story of the exact wrong way to run a campaign.
The best thread derailment of all time.

I love the message that opens the secret compartment
I wonder how the dwarves forgot a holy relic in their own templeIn memory of Evisceratus: he dreamed of a better world, but he lacked the class levels to make the dream come true.
Ridiculous monsters you won't take seriously even as they disembowel you

Re: OOTS #1154 - The Discussion Thread
Yeesh, I'm a dummy. When I first read Belkar's "Deep-V look", I thought he meant that Durkon, like V, was now opting for robes instead of armor. Then I re-read and realized just how much of Durkon's chest is exposed. Between that and his holy symbol, he looks ready for a night at the disco.

Re: OOTS #1154 - The Discussion Thread
Nice upgrade for Durkon. Just imagining Thor whispering "Loki sucks" in his ear!
Thanks Giant!

Re: OOTS #1154 - The Discussion Thread
I'm excited to see what kind of havoc Durkon will wreak with the hammer, but I also can't help but wonder if he's going to get an awesome upgrade to his armor.

Re: OOTS #1154 - The Discussion Thread
It's not Mjölnir.
I will bet 5 gold on Hammer of Thunderbolts though.
Hammer of Thunderbolts
This +3 Large returning warhammer deals 4d6 points of damage on any hit. Further, if the wielder wears a belt of giant strength and gauntlets of ogre power and he knows that the hammer is a hammer of thunderbolts (not just a +3 warhammer), the weapon can be used to full effect: It gains a total +5 enhancement bonus, allows all belt and gauntlet bonuses to stack (only when using this weapon), and strikes dead any giant upon whom it scores a hit (Fortitude DC 20 negates the death effect but not the damage).
When hurled, on a successful attack the hammer emits a great noise, like a clap of thunder, causing all creatures within 90 feet to be stunned for 1 round (Fortitude DC 15 negates). The hammer’s range increment is 30 feet.
Strong evocation, necromancy, and transmutation; CL 20th; Weight 15 lb.

All he needs is a spoon for up his nose, and he'd be a dancin' fool. (Zappa reference ....) Aye. Hiding in plain sight.
Not sure why the gloves would be silk? (In re a comment further up)
Thor would smash their heads with his mighty hammer Mjollnir. To wield this awesome weapon he needed iron gloves and a belt of strength. Mjollnir would return to Thor's hand after being thrown and was symbolic of lightning. Thor was foremost of the gods to the common man, who would call on him to ensure fertility, and widely worshiped.Avatar by linklele. How Teleport Worksa. Malifice (paraphrased):

Re: OOTS #1154 - The Discussion Thread
Darn, according to V, vampires are resistant to electicity. I hope liches aren’t.
Most likely it was kept a secret of the highest member of the Clergy. A secret weapon to only be used at the direst of time. And then one day everybody who knew were killed in a cave-in or some such and all mentions of the hammer were allegorical or thought to be allegorical.
Now I imagine a young Durkon having to write an essay on the symbolism of ‘the power of thunder lies under the feet of Thor’.Forum Wisdom
