   For Magnus' short Martial Arts Tourney game world....

   Also, Magnus, if you could rerun your list of preferred world types, I'd be glad. I think I may try to stick to fiction book worlds for now (just cause) so Mischief is off the board (besides, I'm scared what you'd do in a world with that much chi and anime would have a lot of that.)

   When all you have is a hammer, your problems start to look like nails.
   ... It wouldn't be too bad. I'd focus the power mostly on crushing the big bad.

   Here's copy of my list.

   I like the Wizardry series by Rick Cook, It's about a expert computer programmer who is sent to a fantasy world, and then he discovers that he can manipulate magic like computer programs.
   I also like the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy series
   I like The Matrix, hacking reality to do kung fu is awesome in my opinion

   there are a few video game that I enjoyed immensely(if you want a description of them I can type one up or direct you to a few sites for them.)
   they are the Boktai series, Lunar Knights, Skies of Arcadia, and the Final Fantasy series

   I like some broad categories of movies: Zombie horror, b horror movies, action/comedy

   I also like anime and manga, so if you need more ideas for me just ask.

   ...there's not that many book...Just tell me if you need me to put more ideas down

   I liked it, I just thought Magnus would have no chance if he didn't use his Chi powers, and there weren't a lot of options that wouldn't be over the top to start,

   I was half-expecting it to turn into a psionic battle, with Magnus trying to use project emotion to make Spock angry and Spock trying to use psionic defenses.

   J, good points.

   K, well, after M. scared the Sawcuuth with M's plans to burn up with psi power, a psi-inhibiting drug got added to M's food.

   I don't have his character sheet, so I don't know his bias. I'd bet it the best way to do that is to either create an RS sitmod or an RS threshold; thus, with a 1@ target for the skill, he could possibly have a chance (depending on the success of the poisoning and whether that's how it was handled).

   Just saying, worth a shot.

   Let's see...
   The Dune series by Frank and Brain Herbert.
   Star Wars And Star Trek would be interesting.
   I would like some something with Steampunk or Magitek
   Dracula or Frankenstein.
   You could throw me into The World of Darkness setting.
   The setting for Exalted would be interesting too.
   Warhammer and Warhammer 40000
   Dungeons and Dragons(Spelljammer looks interesting)

   Your worlds that I would like to go to.
   The Plane of War
   The Pun Islands that Lucas went to.(Aquatica)
   The Magic Academy that Avahur went to.
   The Magic the Gathering world that Mentat went to.( I've played the game and read a book from the Kamigawa Block. I wouldn't mind if you sent me to the world from the books you read in the series.)
   The world where Malachai learn to control elementals
   The world of tall tale's that Malachai went to.
   The Mary Piper that Oak went to.

    Ravenloft also looks interesting. My chi use would be a bit wonky there.
    The world is saturated with undeath.(The dead can sometimes claw their way out of the ground without someone casting something.)

    Ravenloft is a world setting, that unless you play it, you just don't get it. Although Eric does have a lot of horror worlds to fill in the void. I can say, aside from one world, with the guy who stoke up my annoyance factor right off the bat, I enjoyed the places he sent me.
