Re: Things I'm Not Allowed To Do While Gaming
3510: I may not vary my halfling monk by just changing his hairstyle
3511: No, Foot hair is included in this, thank you for asking....
3512: My halfling monk is not allowed to be named Kaine
3513: Neither is he allowed to be named Carradine, David or anything else remembering of one of the two Kung Fu series...
3514: Kung Fu Hustle is not a good referrence for Monk action (I disagree strongly...)
3515: Neither is A Chinese Ghost Story I-III, Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, Hero, House of Flying Daggers or any other fantastic asian Martial Arts A- or B-movie I can come up that my DM probably doesn't know (The 36 chambers of the Shaolin are excluded from this, for some obscure reason called DM's fancy...).

Re: Things I'm Not Allowed To Do While Gaming
3516: In the continuing saga, "Whoops" is not sufficient apology for tossing down both ends of the escape rope.
3517: It is considered somewhat poor form to refer to your national leaders as "zombie bait" no matter what the situation is with the undead uprising.
3518: Confined spaces and glitterdust do not mix.
3519: When I am asked to split away from the main group and set a fire for the sole purpose of a distraction, it is henceforth assumed that there will be survivors when the rest of the party finds me.
3520: Not allowed to "yoink" the wizard during an incantation of any sort.
3521: Not allowed to cause greater risk to the party for the sake of dramatic tension no matter how well it worked for Elan.
3522: "Blast disks" from Heroes of Battle are no longer to be sent out as formal invitations.
3523: Not allowed to make a bomb consisting of an Otiluke's Resiliant Sphere and a decanter of endless water ever again.Last edited by Jade_Tarem; 2007-02-22 at 02:23 AM.

3531: Your drow fighter's warcry cannot be "Meat for the meat god!"
3531b: Even if it cracks the entire table up.
3532: If you must create for yourself a small army of undead to bolster the powers of your already demonstrably nigh invincible party... don't do it in front of the pope.
3533: If you've been given a cursed helmet to safely convey to another city, for god's sake don't give it to the half-ogre NPC that thinks clubbing himself in the fingers is a fun game. He will not keep it safe.
3534: If you find a nest containing a number of enormous eggs, your thought process probably should not be, "If we steal these eggs, the parents will come after us, and then we can kill and eat them."
3535: If you've just wasted about twenty minutes chasing down a random small child NPC just because she appeared in front of you, and if you need to drop her so you can run to the aid of the party members who are now being assaulted by orcs and screwed because you dragged half of the party into your wild goose chase, don't throw her to the ground, consequently breaking her arm and giving her a gangrenous injury that can't be magically cured because your DM insists on using a half-assed system.
3535b: If you DO do the above, you've already shown yourself to be something of a jerk, so don't waste an entire session's worth of everybody's time trying to get the injured little girl to a town where she can be healed. We know you don't really care about the little girl, let's just eat her to replace those supplies you depleted in one night.

3536: Your warforged does not have to state his emotes before speaking, nor is he a diplomat, made for the facilitation of communications.
3537: Your warforged will not refer to all humanoids as "meat bags".
3538: In fact, no warforged for you.
3539: Your elf paladin trying to bring order to chaotic elven society is a valid premise, but he would NOT kill the Chaotic Good King to achieve these ends.Vincent Omnia Veritas

3537: Especially when the target is being grappled by allied dragons in midair.
3538: We shall no longer send the LG fighter and his silver dragon to negotiate with demons.
3539: Just because the kobolds ride Dire Weasels is not a valid reason to mount the gnomes on Giant Space Hamsters. Especially not Wooly Rupert.

3941: I am no longer allowed to make a bard with +2 sunglasses and a +3 suit, who has ranks in Perform (sing) and Perform (dance). (Yes, I know those stats wouldn't actually exist, but I say they do, so nyah.)
3942: If I do so, he may only know songs that would be accurate for the time period.
3942b: I understand that if I ever sing "Sk8r Boi" again, the other players will kill me.
3943: I am not allowed to show flippant disregard of the rules, and justify it by saying "But I say they do, so nyah.".
3944: Even if I am the DM.

Re: Things I'm Not Allowed To Do While Gaming
Let me guess...
3947. In reference to 3941, I am also not allowed to wear a Japanese school outfit +4 and claim I'm from the Rokugan in order to imitate the same effect.
3948. I am not allowed to insert such a character as a major encounter should the players have the lack of foresight to allow me to GM.Last edited by Dairun Cates; 2007-02-23 at 11:45 AM.

Re: Things I'm Not Allowed To Do While Gaming
The mental image I have is not of a planet populated by tarrasques, but of a planet made of tarrasques... the entire surface is their carapaces, with some dirt which came from the elemental plane of earth, or made from dead trees (created by druids), etc. Occasionally, one will shift or die (they're all eating each other), opening a way into the interior of the planet of the tarrasques.
This would be an interesting place to play, for a game or two.The Cranky Gamer
