Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing II: Stop Making The DM Cry
Have you ever tried to actually hurt someone who can take 10 on tumble and pass DC 60 checks? Jump isn't so bad, but tumble gets.... fun. :D

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing II: Stop Making The DM Cry
59. "More minions" is not the solution to every problem. Even if they seem to be able to solve everything.
61. I may not have an Advanced Half-Dragon Vampiric Fiendish Lich Dire Narwhal as my animal companion.
62. I may not use Stoneskin and Tenser's Transformation to show up our fighter. It would make him sad.

65. I may not bury the paladins' armor while she's asleep
66. I may not use prestidigitation to soil the paladin's armor at any time.
67. I may not...okay look, it's not my fault if the paladin takes off her armor every night and has no ranks in sense motive.
edit: changed the numbers to match because I got ninjaed.

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing II: Stop Making The DM Cry
Not as ketchup, but I'm betting it'd make a great hot sauce.
69: Not allowed to call our indentured followers redshirts, mooks, or cannon fodder, even if their only purpose is to serve a ablative armor until the PCs can batter down the enemy's defenses.
70: Not allowed to shoot the Sidereal Exalted when the scene being described is unknown to our characters, taking place in the past, and on a different plane of existence.

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing II: Stop Making The DM Cry
71. No matter how smug, obfustacing, and condescending the intelligent major artifact is, it is inadvisable to pretend to wipe my butt with it. Even if it lacks the power to kill me, directly or indirectly, it is still aware of its surroundings and will carry a grudge.
In the end, it deliberately chose not save me from certain death the next time I was in peril, so that character died. Totally worth it, though.Last edited by Notreallyhere77; 2011-07-12 at 04:53 PM.

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing II: Stop Making The DM Cry

70. I may not persuade a bunch of wizards under my command to make an airship in a medieval setting
71. I may not persuade a bunch of wizards under my command to make an airship then a bunch of bombs to put on it in a medieval setting.

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing II: Stop Making The DM Cry
74. When asked what my idea to defeating the BBEG is I can no longer answer with "Wake up Tharizdun".
edit: On that note
75. When facing a cult which aims to summon a demon to this realm I can no longer choose to beat them to it as my solution.Last edited by Sipex; 2011-07-12 at 03:56 PM.

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing II: Stop Making The DM Cry
79. When playing as a mummy who is disguised with a hat of disguise, informing the other party members is a MUST.
80. Not allowed to get angry when the party starts attacking said mummy in the middle of battle, just because he removed his hat of disguise and paralyzed half the party and 2 of the dire sharks we were fighting.
81. Jumping into the water when your swim speed is 2.5 feet (due to being a mummy and being slowed) is NOT a good idea.
EDIT: Fixed numbering

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing II: Stop Making The DM Cry
83. I am not allowed to kill an Iron Colossus in one round by hitting it 11 times in a row with Avalanche of Blades. While at the center of an antimagic field, of course.
84. I am not allowed to question why my weasel familiar (named Captain Morgan) always smells of alcohol, nor question why I can never find him when I need him to do something.

85. When encountering a door, my first answer shouldn't always be a Pick/Ax
86. Even if the door is trapped in such a way that our rogue can't disarm it.Titles, Achievements, and Quotes of HonorSpoilerInfernal Teamworker - City of Shadows Wondering if anyone is still checking this...

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing II: Stop Making The DM Cry
89: I am not allowed to introduce our DM to stinking cloud.
90: I am not allowed to reset every trap (and set new ones) in the dungeon while my party is in it and leave because they stole an item that had magically enchanted my character to "desire it above all else."I think I just had an evilgasm!

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing II: Stop Making The DM Cry
95. I may not use cee-fractional strikes to eliminate the Necron base on the planet I'm trying to save.
96. I may not use kinetic strikes on said Necron base either.
97. In fact, I may not use any sort of orbital strike except for the weapons on our starship.
98. And no, I may not place engines underneath the powerful force field surrounding the Necron base and launch it into the local sun.
Cracking the planetary crust isn't that bad a thing, right?
