What the SHIT, that wasn't happening when I was there. >_<

Edit: Googled it myself. -1 is the average for Whitehorse, the warmest city. I see what ya did there. <_<

I work outside, more than that, I spent last winter in the freaking Yukon because of work.

Becomes a little hard to appreciate the cold when it's 50 below outside and you're trying to hammer a rusted spike into a frozen hunk of wood with frostbitten hands. <_<

I'll take sweltering, nad-melting heat over that any day. o_o;

Well, at least you don't live in Canada, where every year you sit around with the quiet, grim expectation for that half of the year when all the green things go away and your world becomes a barren, inhospitable wasteland where water only appears as ice and snow, the very sky seeks to punish you for your hubris and affection for this thing called 'the Sun' and you can barely even blink for fear of your eyes freezing shut in the frigid cold, Haha!

Ha ha... haaa...

...I often drink myself to sleep so no one will see me cry.

You can instantly disintegrate someone with powerful lightning magic in many games/movies etc. You won't even have time to think WTF before your dust.@Sir Lurksalot

@Bishop

To this, I have a counter-argument using the same principal I noted above; The Hydromage clicks his tongue disapprovingly and the fluid between the hemispheres of your brain temporarily freezes, severing your corpus callosum. You now spend your days in a wheelchair and comfy robe trying and failing to work between the lines of a children's colouring book while raving something about the Croatian frappuccino conspiracy and weeing through a straw.

Yes, I like lightning. Every sane person likes lightning. But I like versatility more.

>Skilled hydromage sees your prowess with lightning. And the ego it fuels.
>His eyebrow twitches.
>Begins manipulating the fluid in your bowels, condensing them.
>Dons troll face.
>Makes you violently brown your pants every time he sees you try and cast a spell.

Beware the water benders. All the shit talk they take breeds a remarkable amount of spite.

Water is second only because of blood bending. I forgot what the other 2 elements were...

@Bishop

Reminds me, I used to have a character in an old D&D campaign who stumbled into a homebrew, water-based, spellsword cross-class by way of the DM's wild ideas. Mostly because I briefly mentioned to him how we brought in this monstrous contraption at work that rode on the back of a train and carved through steel and concrete with high-pressure water.

Next thing I know, my humble human fighter is spinning water over his arms like some kind of demented, high-powered drill and punching holes in people while making puns about fisting.

And this was before he figured out how to apply the same principal to his sword.

...I miss that character, he was way too much fun.
