Munchkin: Difference between revisions

Line 52:
** Of course, ''his'' GM responded by dropping a mountain on him (which means that [[Rocks Fall, Everyone Dies]] is [[Older Than Feudalism]]?) and later using a cursed headband to effectively place him under control of a more sensible player. Bravo!
** Also, Sun Wukong's name in Japanese is very familiar to a lot of people with similar implications: [[Dragonball Z|Son Goku]].
* Also, not to be outdone, the [[Norse Mythology|Norse]] have an entire Pantheon of Munchkins. From Thor, who can't die unless he lets go his magic hammer (that he can't let go of){{verify}}, to Odin, who had some of the most epic lootz in all of mythology.
** Odin may very well be a literal munchkin god. He took a major flaw (ripping out his left eye) in order to get a huge bonus to his Wis and Int skills (drinking from the legendary Well of Mimir). He even got some nice animal familiars out of it, the ravens Huginn and Munin [[Genius Bonus|(thought and memory, respectively)]].
* Marduk. He first appears after every other god in his pantheon collectively fail to destroy Tiamat and destroys her singlehandedly for them. On the way, he loots the halos of every divine entity he kills, making him orders of magnitude more powerful than any other deity, and returns to the heavens to be made king of everything for eternity. The entire story reads like a terrible'' Dragon Ball Z'' [[Mary Sue]] fic.
