The Dresden Files RPG Book Quote Scavenger Hunt
ponbern:
i can only think of two at the moment(mainly becuz my cousin stole them all, stupid cousin in traction >:(), and im suprised no one else said it.
Rapport-
"Are you always a wiseass?"
"No, sometimes I'm asleep."
and
"Who the hell are you?"
"I the hell am harry"
iago:
Hey guys, if the quotes don't have book titles I can double check 'em in, they'll be a little tough to include...
I'm loving these later additions though.
Karevala:
Deceit
I kept my duck blind of a smile in place, and mouthed appropriately polite phrases in the right spots. My cheeks had already started hurting. (Death Masks, chap 19, page 197)
Deceit
(I know this next one is too long; I'm sure parts could be dropped.)
Then I reached into my pocket and dropped a quarter on the floor near him. "There's a pay phone on the other side of the parking lot, past a patch of broken glass. You'd better get yourself an ambulance." I turned and walked out the door without looking back. ...text omitted...
The Russian grinned. "Was that a quarter you gave Cassius?" "Yeah." "For the phone?" "Yeah."
Michael noted, " Phone calls cost more than that now."
(Death Masks, chap 28, pages 301-302)
Discipline
The lights and the noise made it a little difficult to keep my concentration, and I felt the spell I'd woven around me wobble. I closed my eyes for a second, until I had it stabilized again. (Death Masks, chap 1, page 1)
Discipline?
There are things you can't walk away from. Not if you want to live with yourself afterward.
(Death Masks, chap 14, page 145)
Endurance
The cold grew more intense, more painful, I couldn't escape it. I panicked, thrashing wildly, dull pain flaring in my bound limbs, and away into numbness under the cold.
(Death Masks, chap 21, page 228)
and a little later.
I didn't have much energy. After a few minutes, I hung panting and hurting and too tired to struggle any more, the water only getting colder, bound limbs screaming. I hurt, but figured the pain couldn't get any worse. A few hours went by and showed me how wrong I was.
(Death Masks, chap 21, page 228)
Fists
Benn didn't give us any warning. She just moved, fast and hard, stepping toward Murphy. There was a quick blur of motion. Murphy's hands got there before the blow landed, and she turned, somehow levering Benn's weight off from her legs and slamming the grey-maned woman into a wall.
(Fool Moon, chap 2, page 20)
Intimidation I like the childishness in this one.
"Hi, " I said in a loud voice, and stepped up to my door. I towered over Blandman. And I had a great big gun in my hand, even if I did keep it pointed down at the floor. "I'm Harry Dresden." (Death Masks, chap 4, page 42)
Intimidation or possibly Contacts
"Ventas servitas," I hissed, nice and dramatic, and threw some will at the door. Sudden wind slammed it shut right in front of his eyes. He squeaked, and backed up several paces, staring at the door, then whirling to face me.
I used the remnants of the same spell to push out a chair opposite me. "Sit down Morty, I've got a few questions." (Grave Peril, chap 10, page 83)
Talandar:
Might
Michael had gone to his wife and crouched down beside her. He got his arms underneath her and lifted her as though she were a basket of laundry. Like I said before, Michael's buff.
From Grave Peril, Chapter 21
Karevala:
Here are more quotes. I just can't seem to stop myself.
Alertness This one is hilarious. I hope it holds up out of context.
Thomas's senses evidently didn't compete with mine, because the Black Court vampire was up to its shoulders in the Beetle before he choked out a startled, "Holy crap!"
(Blood Rites chap 3, page 21)
Investigation?
Think. If I were an arrogant, psychotic demon-collaborating terrorist out to trigger an apocalypse, where would I be?
(Death Masks, chap 31, page 331)
Athletics or even Fists
I made like a ballplayer, slid in feet first, and planted the heel of my boot squarely on the end of the demon's nose. I'm not heavily built, but I'm most of a head taller than six feet, and no one ever thought I was a lightweight. I kicked the demon hard enough to make it screech and veer off.
(Blood Rites chap 1, page 2)
Craftsmanship
I'd done some makeshift repairs with several one-by-sixes, some hanger wire, some cheap padding from the camping section at Wal-Mart, and a lot of duct tape. It gave the car a real postmodern look: By which I meant that it looked like something fashioned from the wreckage of a major nuclear exchange.
(Blood Rites, chap 1, page 11)
Lore
People don't believe in the supernatural these days. Supernatural things are scary. It's much more comfortable to rest secure in the knowledge that no one can reach out with magic and quietly kill you.
(Death Masks, chap 1, page 3)
Might
I was about halfway there when something ripped the steel doors off the school inward, against the swing of the hinges. A loud low bellow erupted from inside the building, and then a Kong-sized version of the chimp-demons came stomping out of the doorway.
(Blood Rites, chap 1, page 4)
