    “One” hit

    “Two” hit Pope: “Ouch!”

    “I fear the Pope has died!”

    “You can’t say things like that! You have to be sure!”

    It’s a silver hammer, so it could also check if the Pope is a werewolf.

    +3 to hit vs. Popes, Cardinals, and Bishops. On hit, Popes who are alive but playing dead must save vs. Fortitude or die.

    Hit him once. If he is silent, hit him again. If he is silent again, hit him again. If he remains silent, he is dead.

    Hit him once. If he shouts, you’ve got two more swings to make him stop.

    It was in a book of papal facts my very Catholic childhood friend had on the bus one time, so I buy it. One additional aspect I remember is that they call them by their Christian/given name when they hit them.

    my favourite fact is that “factoid” doesn’t mean “little fact” but is actually starting to mean that

      What does it actually mean?

      So it’s correctly labeled as a factoid then

        The -oid suffix is used to describe something that appears like something else, but is not that thing. An asteroid is something that looks like a star, but isn’t. A factoid is something that looks like a fact, but isn’t.

        I used to introduce my common-law partner as my “wifeoid.” She hated that but sometimes it is okay to put your own pleasure first.
