The Dresden Files RPG Book Quote Scavenger Hunt
Douglas:
Since no one has given Deceit quote for Thomas here goes:
So let me get this straight. You want me to help save the girl, overthrow the dark lord, and defend the innocents terrorized by dark magice," I said. "And you want me to do it because you're my long-lost half brother, who needs somenone noble to stand beside him in a desperate battle for what's right."
He grimaced. "That phrasing has way more melodrama in it than I would have used."
"You've got to be kidding me. That's a really lame con."
"Give me some credit, Dresden," He sighed. "I know how to con. If you were really just another mark, I'd have come up with a better story."
-Blood Rites, Chapter 21, pg. 165-166
Another option:
"The night is young," I said. "Give me one good reason why I shouldn't kill you like the lying treacherous vampire sleaze you are?"
"Because you can trust me," he said. I want to help you.
I snorted. "Why the hell should I believe you?"
"You shouldn't." he said. "Don't. I'm a good liar. One of the best. I'm not asking ypou to believe me. Believe the circumstances. We have a common interest."
...and on the same page...
Michael shook his head. "He's a liar, Harry. I can tell just by being this close to him."
"Yes, yes, yes," Thomas said. I confess to it. But at the moment , it isn't part of my agenda to lie to anyone. I just want her back."
-Grave Peril, Chapter 31, pg. 294 (both quotes)
iago:
Fantastic; thanks for the follow-ups.
I'm thinking I also remember something in Grave Peril -- around the 300's in terms of page position -- with Lea riding a horse? Could someone track that down for me so I can grab it for the Survival skill?
mikeryan:
Survival, short and to the point. Rest of the time, she's pretty much just sitting there.
Grave Peril (Ch33)
"Lea laid a hand on her horse's neck, and the savage beast calmed."
phoenix avolon:
Survival (animal handling)
From Grave Peril chapter 21
“One of her hounds appeared out of the darkness, and crouched beside her, fastening its dark eyes upon me. She laid a fond hand upon its broad head and it shivered in pleasure.”
From Blood Rites (chapter 3)
“It was the insane little notched-eared pup. He ignored me, still growling, and started shaking his head back and forth violently. ‘Good thing we had a stowaway. Vamp might have gotten us both.”
From Grave Peril (chapter 7)
“But it didn’t feel right, to not have Mister run up to me and bowl my shins in greeting. That should have been enough to tip me off.”
To bad dress isn’t under a category, there are some really good quotes for that.

--- Quote from: Redwulf25_ci on February 24, 2007, 07:20:32 PM ---Two quotes for Driving (although it is a bit of an unconventional vehicle, but Survival doesn't seem quite apropriate either) if anyone has a better idea about what skill would be used to ride a reanimated T-rex through Chicago then you can use these quotes for that skill.
Dead Beat Chapter 39:
I didn't know this before, but as it turns out, Tyrannosaurs can really haul ass.
Dead Beat Chapter 39:
Here's something else I bet you didn't know about Tyrannosaurs: they don't corner well. The first time I tried to take a left, Sue swung wide, the enormous momentum of her body simply too much for even her muscles to lightly command. She swung up onto the sidewalk, crushed three parked cars under her feet, knocked over two light poles, kicked a compact car end over end to land on its roof, and broke every window on the first two floors of the building beside us as her tail lashed back and forth in an effort to counterbalance her body.
--- End quote ---
I think driving could be an alright suggestion for Sue ??? No, convection sounds a lot better. I hope my suggestions help but, I can't wait for the game.
