Shapeshifters!

rocks fall and snooggums dies

DnD 3rd, was taking a break from being DM. Made a human rogue who was the half brother of another player’s half orc rogue. We had a plan to be kinda brutish thugs who used flanking for fun and profit, even had a good chit chat going as the very first session started.

First fight of the campaign about 30 minutes in, we come across an ogre. Getting our early initiatives my character and his half brother flank and put a little damage in, everyone else goes, then the ogre goes after me for doing the most damage.

Critical hit with almost max damage, doing double HP and killing my character outright on the first attack. I laughed and excused myself for a few,l saying to carry on. When I got back they asked if I wanted to undo it and the answer was no, I’d have another character ready to join part way through. They had a funeral and the half orc now had a vendetta against the bandits that had led us to the ogre!

My next character was a cheric of WeeJas who believed every action was fated using circular logic. A fantastic one two combo!

Stop using the parts that ask for ID except for ones that have a passing justification like government sites, banking, and utilities. I’m sure there will still be plenty of sites like the Fediverse that don’t request ID.

The 1 oz ones are for Fire Bolt, they are just trying to look tough.

Dip shit mods who care about down votes. I was banned for ‘Systemic down voting’ which is me down voting stuff I think should be down voted, like misinformation.

In game punishments are the worst for these kinds of issues, just talk to each other.

The DM came up with the plot hook and the players agreed to play, so the players need to put some effort into finding a reason to go along with the plot hook.

Suggestions on making the hook more engaging is an option too!

I keep losing my list :(

When all the characters are murder hobos it isn’t about being selfish, just how they approach the world. If everyone is on the same page, including the DM, that style can be a blast for everyone!

It is only an issue when people aren’t on the same page, then it can result in the things you mentioned.

Starting a fight with an undefeatable opponent does not guarantee a TPK. They could be swatted around a bit, learn a lesson, and move on. They could realize it immediately and handle the situation without violence. They could do lots of things.

You are right that the point is to offer them a chance to fuck around and find out, but that doesn’t always mean TPK.

That is why it is necessary to be on the same page about the expectations for the group.

What about the thing I said?

Law enforcement is known to use genetic ancestry, so either they are using other sites or just running the tests themselves instead of doing a formal request.

If we believe 23 and me, they have only recieved 11 data requests for 15 accounts and provided zero data to law enforcement.

That is a report on formal law enforcement requests for direct account information. Law enforcement is known to use genetic ancestry, so either they are using other sites or just running the tests themselves instead of doing a formal request.

I couldn’t find a case for suing companies, just defense requests to dismiss using the data in court but I might not be using the right search terms.

I always cast soup as a ritual so it doesn’t use a spell slot.

So kind of like Drunk History but with muppet dialogue instead of slurred speech?

If so, I’m sold.

I need an adult!
