Pope Says he’s feeling better now…
+5 damage and THAC0 against undead (Pope)
you know it’s an ancient artifact when it uses THAC0
The hammer is in fact eight feet long.
They’re making really sure.
“One” hit
“Two” hit Pope: “Ouch!”
…
…
“What do we do now?” “Just hit harder, it’s a self-solving problem”
“Three” smash Pope: “OUCH!!!”
…
…
“Now what?”
Is it to make sure, or is it to make sure?
The MitreSmiter 9000. Puts all doubt to rest.
They should abstain from the hammer this time round. Zombie pope is the 2025 twist no-one would see coming.
“I fear the Pope has died!”
“You can’t say things like that! You have to be sure!”
*wham-“Ack!!” wham wham
“OK, I’m sure the pope is dead.”
It’s a silver hammer, so it could also check if the Pope is a werewolf.
“The Pope was bitten by a wolf while going out for a shit. Somebody call Maxwell!”
Can’t let that happen again.
…again?
The events inspired the band Powerwolf.
Check the bathroom window for finger prints.
Hit him once. If he is silent, hit him again. If he is silent again, hit him again. If he remains silent, he is dead.
Hit him once. If he shouts, you’ve got two more swings to make him stop.
+3 to hit vs. Popes, Cardinals, and Bishops. On hit, Popes who are alive but playing dead must save vs. Fortitude or die.
I have one of these on my coffee table that’s decoration. Found it just laying in some room when I visited the Vatican in the 90s. Weird.
It gives +5 to-hit and damage, +2d6 holy damage, +5 to carpentry skill, and can only be equipped by Catholics. It deals double damage to lycanthropes.
Yeah, but the lawful evil alignment restriction, fuck that.
may we have a photo?
Silas? Is that you?
What about the holy hand grenade?
First shalt thou take out the Holy Hammer. Then, shalt thou strike three times, no more, no less.
Three shalt be the number thou shalt strike, and the number of the striking shall be three. Four shalt thou not strike, nor either strike thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out.
Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, thy pope shall snuff it.
Gotta love The Book of Armaments.
It even used to be in Warhammer 40k as wargear for the Space Marine chapter Black Templars. Special hand grenades called Holy Orbs of Antioch
HAAAALELUJAH
Live your life such that they have to verify your death
my favourite fact is that “factoid” doesn’t mean “little fact” but is actually starting to mean that
What does it actually mean?
Edit: Nevermind, @[email protected] already answered.
In this case it seems to fit pretty well.
