This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Quote from: Erick WujcikAre you talking about Caine?

If so, I should point out that I find it most improbable that Caine was actually killed by Luke. More probable, Caine took advantage of the assassination attempt to revert to his old habits, and is again observing affairs from a distance, the Trump spread out before him.

Well, he sure fooled me....;)

I'm so embarrassed!  Falling for the same trick twice!:(

If I were ever to run a SSC (second series canon) game, I'd leave Caine dead... because it's much easier to scare people with a phantom.   People would always be wondering if Caine were really behind ... whatever.

Heh. That's a good one. I actually did that (run a SSC), and had got a Caine's son all worked up in a "Desperately looking for Susan" kind of shit. I never actually decided if the bloke was alive or really had croaked, but it was really funny. I think he (Caine) would eventually have come around.

In my campaign Random cut his own eyes out with a spoon. Do I get to give him tragic hero points for that? ;)
