*Long stare's with a low voice "they won't find what's left of you when I'm finished".
*"My face is the last thing you'll ever see" then a grim smile.
*Look comically surprised and say "Wow, your still attacking me! No problem...I'll kill you".
*Hit the enemy with a melee or ranged weapon and say "That's strike one...you don't want me to get to Strike three...REALLY".
*With a growl say" Count your limbs now...they won't be there long".
* After taking a hit, spit blood and say "Now you've p#ssed me off...start countin the last seconds of your life".
* Throw your weapon into a display you scream "BY MY FATHERS, YOUR LIFE IS OVER THIS DAY".
*" I'm going to drive my fingers into your eyes and skull f##k you!!" (Not for the kids).
*After dropping one enemy, look to another "Your about to join him.....IN HELL."
* With a howl of rage, "Brutality is my aid, death my servant....you will meet both...NOW!!!"

Heh, but no. Usually my characters have a flair for the dramatic, so if they want to intimidate someone? They'll do something that's actually terrifying and then demand obedience.

Like my warlock who, when he was getting irritated at an evil king, started being a violent jerk so that all of the guards were near him trying to hold him down. He then used all of his dailies and encounters in the span of one round (readied action + standard action + action point + surprise round) to kill every single guard in the building. Then, looking slowly up at the king, saying "Now will you listen to what I have to say?" True story.

Or, just playing a sorcerer at all, if you want to intimidate someone, just blow up the nearest cottage.

It also helps that my talent for roleplaying terrifyingly angry characters is augmented by dark circles under my eyes, spiky hair and lots of practice sneering angrily.

But yeah. Actions speak louder than words.

Get down on one knee to look a kneeling prisoner in the eyes. "Now, I'm sorry my friends were so harsh with you, but please, all this unpleasantness can be over if you'd just tell us a bit of what we want to know."
