RPG Lexica:DEF
D
E
F
- fine red mist
- What is said to be left of a character who has just taken an obscene amount of damage, much more than what was needed to kill him. As an example, a character who was right next to a large bomb when it went off could be said to have been "reduced to a fine red mist".
- ______-fu
- Skill in ______, especially if the approach to that could be said to come from extensive learning or training. Often used with pseudo-Zen sentence constructions, such as "My _____-fu is strong." to indicate a high level of skill.
- Origin: Generalization of the -fu in "kung-fu". (Note that this is actually wrong: according to Dictionary.com, it's the "kung" part that denotes skill.)
- Usage:
- GM: "How the hell did you manage to create a character this powerful at the starting level?"
- Player: "My chargen-fu is strong."
