    * I may not use calculus as a metaphor for anything in DnD. Even if I use it properly, the odds that the person I am talking to will pick up on it, understand it, and properly be able to use it themselves is too slim.

    *No matter how much it may have seemed like a "Good idea at the time", making a pact with a red dragon is not such. At best, I might be cursed with some major disability, and soul linked to a creature that is typically high up on the "Things to kill" list of adventurers and questing knights. At worst, I'm it's next meal.

    *Note To self: Werewolf Curse in Skyrim = Awesome. Werewolf Curse anywhere else= being hunted down and/or burned at the stake

    *No matter how much I shout words in Draconic, they won't give me any special powers.

    *Shooting a party member in the knee with an arrow is neither "funny" nor a solution to handling my party arguments

    * When the BBEG makes his 'we can rule together' speech/offer thing, the correct answer is not 'hmm, actually, that makes sense. OK then.'

    (Dark Heresy, where the plot was supposed to be that our Inquisitorial master had gone too far. Only when he explained his motives and actions, my character concluded that he was actually right and promptly betrayed the rest of the party)

    * I am no longer allowed to corrupt the paladin into worshipping Asmodeus through nought more than careful reasoning. No matter how funny it is.

    * If a fellow party member has fallen in a pit of acid, I am to get him out immediately, not wait to see if he asks for help. This applies even if I am evil and he is a paladin.

    (He was apparently attempting to redeem me by getting me to perform an unasked for act of charity. Just sat there in the acid, slowly dissolving, not saying a word. Eventually I got him out, but the ranger had to threaten me into doing it, so it didn't count)

    *My party cannot be a group of bards called the S men armed with rapiers just to give us the excuse to open every battle with "Lock S Foils in attack Position"

    ** he may not circumvent this by saying "Use the Mass x Accelleration"
