Mh isn't it smacking each other with books, the heavier the better? There take some Tolstoj! Taste my Tolkien! Except with Eorzean authors. Actually, T'lamila would really think it means that, eh....

Its not just smacking though, with the breadth of most libraries, the projectile method seems to serve well.

Theres also using them as traps around tight corners, stacking the heavier tomes on the edges of shelves so they fall in the others hunt ect.

I'll admit, sometimes my teaching gets a bit dull and I know working my students too hard can make them stir crazy so once a moon or so to let them wind down is handy.
Uhm should really organize survival sessions with this method you know...I mean in RP, out of game it looks like you do already Tongue

Oh its all in character, The Ossuary is frequently left open, so when i'm not wandering Thanalan with the few of them, we like to speak there.

I would never dream of using RL literature is such a way, and even IC I make my students promise no use of Thaumaturgy to prevent damaging the books.

I used to work right across from this arcade when I was 17 and they had a Fist of the North Star punching game where there were 6 punchy things (those soft padded mat glove things) that could pop up at random times and you had to punch them. At the end of every boss they would all pop up and you had to do the "Atatatatatata" attack lol; was lots of fun. 

In regards to book fighting...When I was leveling scholar on Denn I found an iron book around level 30 that was literally the size of a Lalafell torso...So in theory...you could probably have an actual book fight.

Edit: I found it!!!!!

Chat room RP was awesome. I got my online RP start on a site called TTR

Shame I have no thaumaturge chars, shame. Also, I still have to learn how to take out a quote from quote...this forum confuses me.

Also, all my first rps were play by chat too, not AOL chatrooms but still chat system browser lands. Sure that leaves imagination a big role, eh.
