Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing IV: The Decanter of Endless Bad Ideas
This made me laugh. A lot.
My players aren't the brightest bag of hammers--
- Not allowed to take on a 10,000 elf army single handedly.
- Not allowed to assume elven armies are only composed of level 1 fighters.
- Not allowed to assume elven armies don't carry wizards with see invisibility.
- Not allowed to assume elven armies will not have anyone in their ranks employing magical weapons of any kind; and another thing, don't ignore the two pages of world fluff that elven archers are fabled for being able to hit a moving target from 500 feet against the wind, especially when the odds calculated that only 5% of those archers in that army hitting you still amount to fifty archers and the reason they hit you was because that 5% represents the group that rolled a 20 on their attack roll.
- ...Not allowed to assume the DM won't kill you for being dumb.

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing IV: The Decanter of Endless Bad Ideas
* If I attempt something that stops the game dead for 2 hours or longer while the DM looks up/makes up the rules for resolving such an action, I may safely assume that such action will be banned for all PCs in the future. Yes, even if the DM eventually gets tired of pulling his hair out and allows it to work this time because it's just faster.

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing IV: The Decanter of Endless Bad Ideas
*I may no longer create mildly insane characters
**Said mildly crazy characters cannot gain magical powers from head trauma unlocking magical genetics
***I may most certainly not begin to worship a rock that hit said characters head as the god known as James
****Under no circumstances am I to derail the plot in order to establish a Church of James.
*****Especially if its successful, and the aforementioned character starts to acquire followers.
*I may not push the barbarian down four flights of stairs. This is generally considered impolite.
**Casting defensive buffs beforehand does not counter act the pushing down the stairs act.
***I am not to complain when my character ends up with broken legs.

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing IV: The Decanter of Endless Bad Ideas
Why not? this seems rather interesting that you managed to get anything banned from that, you could probably re-create everything Barring the Makuta-Mata Nui battle in E6. The makuta species is already replicable as gnomes, and the only schools even so being used were Evocation, Illusion, and Conjuration.

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing IV: The Decanter of Endless Bad Ideas
Claiming that the only rules for broken legs are Optional rules that the DM never said we were using will get d4's thrown at me, particularly if this is my argument for why I can still run after a tree fell on my legs.
Asking if the tree was made of Evil Cold Iron will cause the DM to 'remember' a species of sacred trees used by adventurers to make wooden weapons capable of bypassing DR/Evil and Cold Iron.
Asking if the tree is a projectile weapon, and therefore protected from by Protection From Arrows, will render the tree a Gargantuan-sized sacred-tree-of-evil weapon wielded by the DM.
Asking if, since this tree is now a melee weapon that I clearly saw coming, I can use an Immediate Action to Abrupt Jaunt will make it a Vorpal weapon. Damage type restrictions be damned.
Pointing out to the DM that I have both Fire Shield and Holocaust Cloak up, and asking if I should roll for damage on both of them, will get the Druid casting Call Lightning on the tree next to my Jade Phoenix Mage to direct the next bolt at me.
Evading that bolt withAbrupt Jaunt,Leaping Flame, ANY Immediate action at my disposal will get me banned from playing a Jade Phoenix Mage.Avatar courtesy of Ceika.

* The backstory to the campaign may not in any way involve Haruhi Suzumiya discovering her powers.
** I may not use this as an excuse to completely change the plot, setting, genre, game system, and/or assumed laws of physics each session, even if that's exactly what she would do.

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing IV: The Decanter of Endless Bad Ideas
actually, Bohrok are horde of Deathless if we are keeping to mechanics. They are evolved Av-Matoran*.
the significant problem with the Bionicle universe is that every Toa/PC has an artifact weapon and an artifact helmet, or at least legacy items
*clockwork horrors are more an attempt to depict Grey goo in DnD, not a group designed to strip the camo from a giant robotLast edited by toapat; 2012-12-04 at 01:28 PM.

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing IV: The Decanter of Endless Bad Ideas
...ouch.
As DM, I'm no longer allowed to:
- Create an NPC to hit on my significant other (As the party fighter, she responded to his pickup line by bench-pressing him).
- Create a BBEG who has a flair for a dramatic entrance (My players always kill the moment with lame jokes).
- Create a treasure map that's embedded in a diamond (PCs nearly sold it off for spare change and then didn't actually look at it for a month).

In a similar vein:
*My Warforged may not be painted blue and have a wand of magic missile implanted in its arm.
**Going on adventures to defeat other Warforged and gain their special abilities is right out.
***If the above do occur, my Warforged's color does not change when I change special abilities.
****Armor upgrades are not found in capsules, and speed dash is not provided by any boots I may find, enchanted or otherwise.
