Roleplaying GamesThe all-purpose forum for general advice or system-independent (or multi-system) discussion. Come discuss adventure plots, gamemastering dilemmas, or player advice here. For ruleset-specific discussions, see the subforums.
To avoid harming the sanity of the DM I can no longer:
* Cast flesh to stone on a annoying Druid
** Cast Rock to mud on a Druid statue
*** Scoop mud into little ceramic pots
**** Plant tree's in individual ceramic pots
***** Claim that I have helped them become one with nature

Even if I am the Lord of the area we are in, my barbarian with 5 charisma still has to have the party Bard write my speeches.
If I am the party Bard, someone else has to write my speeches still.

* If the game system does explicitly have the souls of the powerful ferried from their body by the Grim Reaper, I may not bluff him into believeing I'm still alive after dying
** Nor can I bluff him itno believeing the other guy is dead
*** The annoying halfling party member is right out
* If the game we're playing requires each character to have a rival, my rival may not be any of the following; imaginary, a housecat, a great wyrm black dragon polymorphed into a housecat, the person who killed my father, may father, my evil self, the DM
** I may not forget who my rival is and thus, upon meeting him, dismiss him as a random mook
*** Even if he did fall in one turn.

* I'm no longer allowed to have an Elan Swordsage named Sean Connery with a katana.
** Even Especially if it is an anachronism.
*** Warblade is right out.

**** Levelling up does not involve decapitation of fellow party members.
***** Or any form of [lightning] based spell cast on myself.
Also,
* I am not allowed to chain-gate solars in order to provide Latin chanting soundtracks for the party's battles.
* I am not permitted to cast Stand on the enemy's blackguards just so I can say "The Dark Knight Rises".

*Creating sheets for famous characters is a hobby, not a job.
**Players will not be expected to use these.
***Dieing in an avalanche of Dr. Who character sheets will be what's coming to me.

If the fresh level 1 party looks at what has just happened and the resulting 'obvious explanation' involves more than a dozen double crosses, four triple crosses, and someone they aren't even sure how many times that guy has betrayed people, my DM license will be revoked.

Changing class to Dragonfire Adept won't give me a pass on this one.

** Especially if I'm NOT a Bard
*** If I try this and I AM a Bard, the others may point out that I can only play one instrument at a time, so all the music with more than just one instrument shouldn't be played
**** I may not see this as a challenge.

I may not make up the plot as I go along in such a game. It must have everything down in DM notes so that I can prove that's really what was happening.
*I may however, write so horribly they can't read it.
