Character Catchphrases

[demiurge1138]

Ever find yourself giving your character a catchphrase, either intentionally or accidentally?

My warlock character, Dr. Thanatos, found himself early in his career shooting open doors that nobody else wanted to touch. So I found myself quoting Invader ZIM, shooting open the door to "it's a good thing I exist!" And nobody ever caught that it was a quote. And it stuck. Every door opened or obstacle overcome by my eldritch blast inspired it.

My Sharn detective game, at least for a while, ended every session with a PC saying the line "all in a day's work for the Freelance Police!" Sometimes delivered by multiple characters, and once even mournfully, in a session ending with the funeral of a dead character. It was awesome.

What about yours?

Demiurge out.

 

[shilsen]

I think my cowardly shugenja's catchphrase probably is - "Not in the face!"

 

[Gold Roger]

In a postapocalyptic d20 game my policeman would always introduce himself as "Andrew O'Sullivan, NYPD." even though he had been frozen for thousand years and there was no New York to speak of anymore.

 

[BullMarkOne]

For my current improved feinting rogue: "'here, look at that!" said with a bad scottish accent.

He also has a running schtick with his named club: Ed, the shillelagh (yes I used the phb to check my spelling) whereby he often refers to Ed as if it were a person.

 

[Piratecat]

My half-orc firmly believes that most people only experience the world through four of the five senses. His catch phrase: "I lick it."

 

[JRRNeiklot]

My favorite, though admittedly stolen, phrase is "I'm your huckleberry."

 

[The_Gneech]

I have a rogue who is so cowardly that he is always considered to be "taking 10" on Hide unless I specify otherwise. Since he had +11 with Hide at the time, I just started saying "21" to indicate that he was hiding.

Of course, he's leveled up since then, so I now say "22." But you get the idea.

[Tinner]

My favorite, though admittedly stolen, phrase is "I'm your huckleberry."

I've heard that quote dozens of times, but I still have no idea of its original source.
Care to enlighten me?

Doc Holliday (played by Val Kilmer) in the movie Tombstone.

 

[Draethen Vontrair]

A character in a book i wrote had a catchphrase that went:

"Noone lives forever, Except me."


I later incorporated it to my character.
