Editing RPG Lexica:YZ9 (section)

==Y==

;Yoink!: Short for "I like that idea so much I'm stealing it (for my game)". Origin: from the supposed sound of something being snatched away. Think back to saturday morning cartoons and you will know the sound.


;"You all meet in a tavern...": The "classic" (read: cliched) way to bring a [[party]] together in a fantasy game; often extended to other games as well.  Very nearly as cliche as the literary equivalent, "It was a dark and stormy night..."


;"You notice a ceiling fan.": When a character fails an observation or perception roll it is often that they notice the most unimportant thing in the room. Ex: "GM: OK, there's a small firearm near the bad guy, roll to see if you notice it." "PC: Oh, I failed the roll and got a 1." "GM: You notice a ceiling fan."
