I agree completely.
*If a campaign begins with a mob of skeletons attacking civilians, I am supposed to kill the skeletons with minimum civilian casualties, not vice versa.
*I am not to prepare only fire-based spells when we are attacking the temple of the goddess of fire.

*This also applies to toasters, and I am not to use one as a meteor hammer.
* Unless it's made of starmetal, cannot use meteors as hammers either.
* While we have already gone over the wielding of natural weapons, it is nerveless appropriate to say that our mouse-guards EPCIALLAY cannot take advantage of this.
*Our cleric cannot be multidenominational.
* The flying spagetti monster is not part of the pantheon.
* Neither is Vesta.
* Especially if you take the domains 'hearth and home' and twist them into the single domain "arson."
*Sun wukong may be part of A pantheon, but you still can't worship him.

*I may only say "For Mako" or "For Lu Ten" once per session, and we will immediately adjourn to mourn individually.

why would the cleric not heal you if you're a rogue? seems rather an odd sentiment, and counter productive too :smallconfused:

He likes casting lots of different spells which is odd and we have a couple of other people who can and will heal so it doesn't matter all that much. My rogue just doesn't trust the other party members as much.

On that note, I'm gonna post a few of my own, although they may/may not be you are supposed to do in exalted.
*Cannot perform the Creation-slaying Oblvion kick on the basis of the idea that if I do it, the deathlords can't.
*Cannot cure the great curse with any of the following: sufficiently advanced medical treatment, sufficiently advanced martial arts, or sufficiently advanced lovemaking.
**It goes without saying that this applies to sufficiently advanced basket-weaving, too.
*** Cannot attempt to get around this my making a charm for a bright-slap, allowing the use of both sufficiently advanced medicine and marital arts at the same time.
**** “Tying the offending solar to a wall, while giving them a freezing-cold shower and repeatedly applying a cricket-bat to their gronch” is not sufficiently advanced, or even advanced, medicine.
*Even if a sidereal, cannot literally kick reason to the curb.
*Even if you are a courtier focusing on social charms, exaltations of any kind will not be handed out for sexual acts so perverse that it makes the god’s heads tilt.
*Not to create a perfectly saintly and noble character who made an infernal pact wtih the ebon dragon for the sole purpose of rubbing it in his face.
**Even if it is a REALLY impressive **** move, it will still make me acquire torment.
*Not to bite the hand that exalted me.
*Cannot force the neverborn to reincarnate by nailing them to the wheel of reincarnation.
**Even if I somehow grab ALL of the gods at once and ram them into a wall reputedly, cannot force Yu-Shan to create a mechanic allowing the Neverborn to reincarnate.
*** Repeating the same trick with the Yozis and Malfeas, while cathartic, will not help.
* Cannot hit a corpse so hard that they come back to life.
**This will not work with the Neverborn either.
*There is no Fus-Roh-Dah charm, and the dragonborn aren’t that kind of dragonborn.
* Cannot explain to the dragon-blooded that technically, the Green Sun princes ARE demons possessing a human shape, and that they should kill THEM, and leave solars/lunars well enough alone.
**Cannot do this while carrying an infernal exalted in my left hand and using him as an prop.

Why didn't I think of that!?

But Infernals are awesome! They're called the rockstars of Hell! Plus, they're more like the primordials than the demons, since essence 10 Infernals ARE primordials. They can make armies out of nothing and become infinitely big.

Well, this is assuming I'm playing an Anathema and that it's before we start restoring the government and getting everything cleared about the Anathema. Including the facts that we're supposed to lord over the dragon-blooded and eventually go insane (which is why my characters want to restore the government as a republic, and then leave to wander so they can't become blinded to the mortal's lives).
Maybe I should've said "I may not rescue the Scarlet Empress solely so I can lay her".
