* Good-aligned rivers and evil bugs don't mix. Especially if said bugs are on me and I jump in said river. xD
** Same with good-aligned rivers and our chaotic evil duskblade.
* I may not jump at our paladin's face. It ends up in our DM fudging the rolls so that he brings his shield up in time so that I get knocked out by it, and lose all memory. And then get manipulated by our rogue. >.>

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing III: I May Not Iron Heart Surge Rule Zero
That's not fair. I didn't fudge any rolls, and everyone agreed with the idea of your amnesia, which wasn't even my idea... It was the other players. I simply agreed that it was getting very out of hand.
FTR, that was also the first roll he succeeded against your jumping at him. Please don't take your irl problems to the forums it's offensive. Thankyou in advance.

* The party will not base their decision to pick a party leader on whose background leaves the biggest possibility for high XP plot hooks.
* The party leader is not allowed to invoke "naming rights". Of anything or anyone.
* The city guards are not racially profiling the halfling.
* If my wizard's spell list was chosen simply to create a funny acrostic, the other PCs are allowed to beat him for 20 seconds each.
* I will not spend half a hour quoting Hamlet every time my PC must make a saving throw versus poison.Anachronism will never high-light the folly of my convictions!

*Any and all female characters I make are henceforth forbidden to take ranks in the following skills: Bluff, Diplomacy, Sleight of Hand, Stealth, Perform, and Profession.
**In addition, any and all female casters as described above are forbidden to utilize the following spells: Prestidigitation, Mage Hand, Ventriloquism, Dancing Lights, Disguise Self, Alter Self, and Acid Splash. This list may or may not expand.
***Having a starting Charisma exceeding the teens at level 1 does not work around the above rules, but rather results in stricter enforcement.

* If we are playing a first age Exalted game, not to find two of every animal, herd them onto a boat, and then beat the **** out of them and call it a zoo.
*Cannot repeat the same trick in the second age, as a Sidereal, using Lunars.
*I will be lauded for doing the same to every Wyld creature, but I can only do it once, thanks.
*My Sidereal is not G-man.
*My Infernal who THINKS he's a sidereal is not Slenderman.
*...There are no longer suits in creation.
*Just because both of them prominently involve green suns, doesn’t mean Homestuck is canon in Exalted.
*My Infernal was never a troll, and he's never heard of a hemospectum...
*...He may be already here but Malfeas isn't Lord English either...
*...And you do NOT work for "He who Lives in His Cue-Ball!'

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing III: I May Not Iron Heart Surge Rule Zero
What? That's the kind of character you WOULD want in a political intruge game. Give it to a child that is often near an enemy ruler, political opponent, etc. And there, sitting right with the child, and by extension, the ruler, you have the perfect spy.
Or, you know, a portable bodyguard for an allied ruler that the child wants to take with them.Open the lid and snatch a homebrewed treat from Cookie's Jar

*Okay you know what? No more mindrape!
Most people see a half orc and and think barbarian warrior. Me on the other hand? I think secondary trap handler and magic item tester. Also I'm not allowed to trick the next level one wizard into starting a fist fight with a house cat no matter how annoying he is.
Yes I know it's sarcasm. It's a joke. Pale green is for snarking

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing III: I May Not Iron Heart Surge Rule Zero
*points at thread in Other Systems*
A few things. You know the sun? Yeah, it's actually a giant glowing battle station. Isidoros is a pretty cool guy if you can get him to take a form that won't destroy everything just by standing there. Adorjan is bat**** insane. Malfeas is REALLY ANGRY, but if you can calm him down, he's not such a bad guy. The Unconquered Sun is a prick who ordered some guys to kill his creators so that they would stop making his job harder and he could play games in the Jade Pleasure Dome. Solars can be anything from superpowered Hitler to Beowulf to Asakura Yoh (I know because Shaman King is influencing my latest character). Infernals can be anything from superpowered Hitler to Beowulf to Asakura Yoh, and even more since they have powers beyond "jump really high, punch super hard, speak really inspiring words". Abyssals are goths with superpowers, and almost all their powers are directed at killing things. Lunars are shapeshifters, who have a totem animal they can turn into and can take more forms by eating the hearts of creatures. Unlike other exalts, Lunars start castelessm and if they don't get the silver tattoos, they might eventually turn into a chimera. Lunars are also bondmates to the Solars, paired when the exaltations were created, so one Lunar shares eternal brohood/love (depending on whether they're the same or different genders) with one Solar. Alchemicals are communist cyborgs from another world. Dragon-Blooded are like the elemental benders in Avatar: The Last Airbender, except there's currently about ten thousand of them and they run the world, with this jaw-dropping beauty of a Dragon-Blooded nobody knows the name of running the world (she disappeared five years ago). In Exalted, there is no "good" and "evil", there is only "better" and "worse", and it'sprettyreallyalmost entirely subjective. Except for the Dragon's Shadow/Ebon Dragon, he's definitely "worse".Last edited by Hiro Protagonest; 2012-03-13 at 07:30 PM.

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing III: I May Not Iron Heart Surge Rule Zero
*If the DM tells me he's planning a pirate-themed game, I may safely assume he would like my character to be more Pirates of the Carribean and less One Piece.
*Just because my unarmed swordsage does not need any gear at level 1 is not an excuse to spend all of my starting gold on booze.
**Even if my character is a dwarf.
*Under no circumstances am I to base any part of my character on any aspect of Old Man Henderson.Last edited by Alabenson; 2012-03-13 at 10:19 PM.

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing III: I May Not Iron Heart Surge Rule Zero
It does, but you have to tread the world, searching for the 300 most attractive women in it.
Wait, does that make it better or worse? Well, it makes it better and harder, so you won't complete the goal within 150 days of wandering through a metropolis and seducing girls.Avatar of George the Dragon Slayer, from the upcoming Indivisible!

**Even Mulan.
***Especially Mulan.
As DM.
* I make not make the party encounter any form of spider themed monster if they include one player who is Arachnophobia out of character.
* Especially if it's a none combat encounter.
*Having the spider drop down from it's Web, start singing "I like to move it move it, I like to move it move it." in a bad Jamaican accent while moon-walking a circle around the party is absolutely out.
**So is having the party leave the Arachnophobia players high Cha bard a note as there leaving saying "Come back any time." If he offered no violence to the party and clearly wasn't doing in any manner that can be construed as an actual danger to the character.
All of the above actually happened this week at an IRL gaming session I was DMing. In my defense, I didn't know we had an Arachnophobic player in the group till after she freaked out from the note. (She was freaking out before hand but she does that from time to time for reasons as yet not explained so I didn't think it important. )"I Burn!"
