    *Not allowed to suggest that the entire team is made up of Harpoon-wielding fighters just so we can harpoon any enemy and hold them at bay in the middle of the room.

    *May no longer make any projectile with the exploding property.
    *This goes double when tied in with the Exit Wound property.
    *May not place both of these on a harpoon and expect it to explode, pass through the target, explode again on the next target (etc) and also remain embedded in all those who were hit, allowing me to pull them around.

    By RAW, I think it would. Nonsense, but still.

    Personally, I think Exit Wound or Exploding would be fine on their own.

    "Spiders gonna spide" is not an acceptable justification for anything your Drow will ever do.

    In fact, no variation of that is to ever be uttered again.

    Exit Wound by itself is just fine. Exploding, however, can have some… complications.

    *May not use Exploding weapons in a bar, tavern, inn, brewery, flour mill, or other area with potentially explosive fuel.

    * If a party member's backstory contains any variation of "May/will only marry/sleep with someone who defeats her in single combat," I may not contrive for my own character to knock her out in the first session for some unrelated reason and then be oblivious to her advances for the rest of the campaign.

    * If I do attempt the above, the party member in question reserves the right to go completely, intolerably tsundere on me.

    *I may not make the Empath/Liberator cry when she talks to my Pokémon.

    Adendum - Even if she needs to realize that good trainers' Pokémon don't like their trainers being accused of being abusive.

    *If I succeed in doing so, she has the right to free any Pokémon who have a loyalty of 1 that I have.

    a. I also have the right to fight her if this happens. Try to keep it non-leathal.

    b. If she dies in an accident during the ensuing fight, burning the body in front of her Pokémon is in poor taste. Or any other way of post humurous desecration. Yes, that includes any method of soul destruction.

    Scion game. My friends and I were fighting a bad who was apparently immune to damage. We were supposed to run. But we had dubbed ourselves "Team Bad@$$, and we don't run. Incidentally, being immune to damage doesn't mean being immune to grappling. I was playing a hand-to-hand specialist (Scion of Sun Wukong) my friends were playing scions of John Henry (LOTS of strength) and Amaterasu (ability to fly).

    We hatched a plan: I would grapple the S.O.B. then strong guy would pick me up (picking up the bad guy along with me) then the flight guy would pick all of us up and fly as high as he could. Then Flight guy would throw us, Strong guy would throw me and the bad guy, and I throw the bad guy into the sun (or at least into orbit). Even if he was immune to our attacks, there was no way he could survive hard vacuum.

    Our storyteller grinned for awhile, then peaked at our character sheets and blanched, apparently realizing that we could, in fact, carry out our plan. He then declared that he wouldn't allow this, and then declared that we had somehow disabled him, and that we had gotten away, calling it a "moral victory" to appease us.


    *My friends and I are no longer allowed to plan strategies with each other.
