At the time, we had far too many quick thwaps that consisted of nothing
more than the same old ASCII art (these days, we have too few, IMHO...) so
I tried to steer things back to the way it was in the old days by turning
the thwap into a little story. I don't think it caught on :(

I prefer to have players roll for initiative, because that gives a chance
of characters acting in a different order from turn to turn. IMHO gets too
predictable if they know who goes first every turn.
