Famous Last Words 12/15: Drow or not… she’s just a woman
There are a number of common traits in this collection of famous last words. Drow are dangerous. Dragons are dangerous. Dwarves have no sense of humour. Kobolds are never as easy to kill as you think. Orcs do hunt in packs. Stormtroopers can hit you from there. If you’re talking about Cthulhu then it’s already […]
Famous Last Words 11/15: Is it supposed to do that?
One of the great side effects of collecting so many famous last words from so many gamers was that it was easy to notice how often we understood each others in-jokes and references. There’s a collective wisdom across so many games; from D&D, to Cthulhu to Warhammer, etc. I think it’s also fair to suggest […]

Famous Last Words 9/15: Can I eat this green slime?
Despite being called “Famous Last Words” some Wyrdlings took to submitting whole paragraphs of encounters. Sometimes these stories where popular and voted up by the community. Sometimes not. Let us know what you think! Some of the famous last words began “true story” – what’s with that? Surely none of these user generated contributions were […]

This re-post of Famous Last Words is ordered by total vote; with the better ones at the top. So does this mean we’ve only got the poorer contributions yet? Not necessary so; some of the famous last word contributions came in too late to pick up many votes. It’s also far to say some friends […]
Famous Last Words 7/15: The dragon is sleeping right?
At this point we’re sill less than halfway through the whole gallery of user submitted famous last words. The original list kept track of total votes as well as average votes. Since you can’t vote – we’ve deleted that – but the original contributor is still there. It’s also worth noting that the original input […]
Famous Last Words 6/15: I’m gonna sneak up on that beholder
I’ll admit that not all the famous last words submitted to GameWyrd made sense – some, for example, included re-occuring characters; pretty hard for a so-claimed famous last words! However, pretty much all of them were sumitted in the spirit in which site was intended; gamer humour, fun, easy and hastle free. Just because we’ve […]

Famous Last Words 4/15: What tha hell? There’s no such thing as a Death Glyph…
Parts of Geek Native are from an older, now retired, site called GameWyrd. This is one such part! Some of GameWyrd had to be retired when the site became Geek Native but “Famous Last Words” was worth saving. It wasn’t easy because I took a brute force approach to the transfer.
