Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing IV: The Decanter of Endless Bad Ideas
***Am not allowed to have my orginal D&D character make a 4e character who happens to be the character indirectly controlling the original D&D character.
****Making an uninterrupted loop through the D&D editions in this manner casues the multiverse to implode and I am reduced to playing Risus as my only PnP RPG medium.

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing IV: The Decanter of Endless Bad Ideas
*If in any game where I have nothing under +25 in a social skill at lvl 9, I will not complain when the rest of the party attacks me without warning while I attempt to talk to them about "accidentally" using prestigitation to soil a party members hair while they sleep.
(The person in question was a girl who was playing a teenage royal half-sea-elf... not a good idea, especially when we hadn't had a good combat for an entire session)
**As the groups reputation builds I may not request "Open Negotiations" after asking the DM that my reputation would built as the "Silver Tongued Master of Persuasion" and expect not to be attacked on sight.

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing IV: The Decanter of Endless Bad Ideas
I find your lack of fourth-wall-breaking distrubing.
* In any campaign set in the real world in the present day, I may not have my character intrude upon the tabletop gaming session in which he is being played.
** I may not then start a conversation with "myself."
*** "I" am not then required to narrate my "character's" responses in this conversation, and so on.
**** Congratulations, you just divded the campaign by zero. Are you happy now?

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing IV: The Decanter of Endless Bad Ideas
* While it is all right for the Summoner to mercilessly abuse their summons as trap-springers, meatshields, and general damage sponges, Dretches still do not look like penguins, and do not address everyone as 'dood'.
Imagine if all real-world conversations were like internet D&D conversations...

My lizardfolk Dragonfire Adept may not be named Godzilla.
* Or Gojira
** He is also banned from ever drinking potions of Enlarge Person
*** Or using scrolls of Enlarge Person via UMD
**** No, no wands either, damn it.
***** Especially not in a halfling city.
****** Nor is he allowed to commission a magic item that causes anyone speaking within 100' of him to have their lips appear two seconds out of synch with their words.Last edited by Shpadoinkle; 2012-10-28 at 01:12 PM.

A certain player in my group is no longer allowed to:
* Have ideas
** Share these ideas with the rest of the party

**** Have a dagger that in one hit does more damage than the party fighter and barbarian both doing full attacks.
***** Possess, craft, or even know about, Lyres of Building
I am not allowed to:
* Accidentally make a gnomish Hitler

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing IV: The Decanter of Endless Bad Ideas
I am no longer allowed to ruin the game by accidentally "figuring out" the "plot twist" (which was actually lifted from an old movie) halfway through the first paragraph of the DM's introductory monologue in the first session.
* Especially if the plot twist happens to be lifted from Zardoz.
I may no longer convince other players to make dwarven wizards who happen to be twins and fistbump before every fight while shouting "Thunder Twin Powers, activate!"
*Even if it IS a Forgotten Realms campaign.
** ESPECIALLY if it's a Forgotten Realms campaign.Last edited by Shpadoinkle; 2012-10-28 at 08:40 PM.
