Also, and this is important.
Improv is part of everything.
Use the environment. Â Use anything mentioned. Â If you PLAN on using part of the environment, make sure it's there, already mentioned, or you mention it several posts back before making someone eat it.
Recent example: Hammer was talking with a lalafel about...something. Â He was nursing a bottle of high proof alchohol, slowly. Â During the course of the RP I made it clear the stuff could strip paint and was leaving a haze that burned blue where it hit flame. Â Flammable stuff.
Near the end of the conversation Hammer lets the lala keep talking, while be pulls a strip of cloth off his clothing, lets them keep talking. Â Stuffs the rag into the bottle non-chalantly. Â Keeps talking.
Shakes the bottle. Â Keeps talking. Â Lights the rag with the cigar he'd been posting about smoking the entire time, tosses the bottle into their arms, and stands back to see what happens.
Plan, plot, use what's at hand, but don't just pull a chair out of thin air or have handy dandy dinner knives around to stab someone with (Unless you're like...at dinner).
Know what your equipment is. Â Know what you're carrying. Know what you can use. Â Make sure people know it's coming, even if it's only after looking back and seeing "You set me up"
Don't use hammerspace to always have an answer.
