Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing IV: The Decanter of Endless Bad Ideas
*My Werewolf Cleric was NOT given the following instructions:
"First of all, you will eat all the bodies."
"The Second step is to swallow all creation."
For those that don't get it, and I really only expect French Metalers to get it, it's a reference to Wolf Down the Earth by Gojira, a French heavy metal band.Open the lid and snatch a homebrewed treat from Cookie's Jar

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing IV: The Decanter of Endless Bad Ideas
I must have an odd DM. This would result in much laughter and extra XP for thinking obliquely and with style. Of course, this is the same person who get’s giddy when we can outthink the baddies. And loves the theatrical engagement.
* When the rogue takes on the master thief mano-a-mano Jackie Chan style, the appropriate response is to start the popcorn and relax, but no meta allowed. This includes shouting suggestions from the sidelines when you are required to be otherwise occupied.
** Clapping when the rogue wins after 30+ rounds is acceptable, however. (Seriously, we lost count between the serving tray discus attack and the chandelier dive to the ledge of the second story window. I am not exaggerating.)Last edited by Kalrany; 2012-10-10 at 02:09 PM. Reason: one misspell -- one! Geh!
78% of all DM's start their first campaign in a tavern. If you're among the 22% who didn't, copy and paste this into your signature and tell us where you DID begin.The players were attacked individually on the road on the way to town by werewolves. To survive, they had to team up then and there without knowing anything about eachother (literally -- all character sheets were completed without other players' knowledge).

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing IV: The Decanter of Endless Bad Ideas
As a DM:
*I should determine ahead of time what sort of party the players want to play.
*Failing that, I should at least make clear what sort of characters will work best in the (homebrewed) setting.
*Not to be disappointed when I get a group of well-thought-out, excellently roleplayed characters instead of the murderhobos I tailored the setting for.
*Not to keep the combat encounters the same despite a somewhat lower level of combat competence than they were designed for. >.> No matter how tempting it may be.
*Not to get disappointed when they try to talk their way through /every/ /single/ /encounter/, including the ones with dumb (in the literal sense of the word) beasts.

(No I'm not even kidding, at level 5 they get the ability "consume sins" which just requires you to maintain physical contact for a number of minutes equal to the target's HD. Given how long sex lasts, it's entirely plausible for you to redeem the big bad by sleeping with him)[/QUOTE]

Yelling "SUCK BOLT V LIZARD" at an adult black dragon is generally a bad idea.

*"...but it'll be fine because I can outrun them..." should not be the main reason behind your alignment. I dont care what that alignment is, you just got it veto'd.

Please take everything I say with a grain of salt. Unless we're arguing about alignment. In which case, you're wrong.

* DnD (or a similar game like Pathfinder) and Paranoia do not mix.
** If they were to mix, the decision to mix them would be made by the DM, not a player like me.

How do you manage a Paranoia game that survives an entire session? Hell we play Paranoia planning to only go one night at this point.

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing IV: The Decanter of Endless Bad Ideas
A) First and Last are not mutually exclusive terms.
B) It's possible but the role-playing requirements are HEAVY. You have to go in with a seriously machiavellian mind-set and an eye toward keeping your pawns (read; the other pc's) alive so you can continue to make use of them.
Finding an entire group that's even capable of having the right mindset and roleplaying chops is probably more difficult than keeping the game together once you do.I am not seaweed. That's a B.

* I am not allowed to play natural lychantropes anymore.
* I am not allowed to play barbarians anymore.
* I am most certainly not allowed to play werewolf barbarians anymore.
** Especially not with the Lesser Animal Totem rage power.
*** Soloing a CR 4 encounter as an ECL 3 character is just bad form.
