In the tomb of horrors, there is a door that summons a monster to attack the players if the players stab the door. This is apparently something that not only happens in Gary Gygax's campaigns, but happens often enough that he encoded it into one of the most famous dungeons of all time.

Noble honour just means they take responsibility if they knock anyone up, and they never lie about what they intend for a relationship to be. I could probably go through every set of tenets and give an idea of how every paladin is in bed.

Konsi will agree that when it comes to Razira, it's not just her smites that are divine, if you know what I'm saying.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. I will always be amazed that bards have the reputation and not paladins. They're charisma casters with a healing touch, an inspiring aura, and immunity to disease.

Did you think, though? I get that you didn't read the article, but you at least had to have read the other guy's comment that explained it to you already. I don't know why you insist on me telling you this information for the third time.

For what? The article is right there and someone already summed it up for you. If you're not going to engage with the basic subject of conversation, then leave the conversation. Especially if everyone else already left.

You didn't read the article, did you?

• It is possible, and he explained how in only 3 steps.
• He does not want the storyline intact. He recommends the opposite.
• He adapts to get a scenario, not a script. The finish line is the objective. The route doesn't matter.
• He referenced adapting Lord of the Rings in a previous article and linked to it, so you picked a bad example.

Everything else you said was just irrelevant.

It's the system for when you want to roleplay literally everything ever. And if they don't have a rule the story would need, they just figure one out.

I would recommend the podcast Film Reroll to anyone who wants to see this in action. They start from the point of the movie, then let dice rolls and in-character improv decisions reshape the story. That's how Jafar fell in love with Aladdin, Dorothy rained dragon fire upon the armies of Oz and James Bond died.

This is the worst timeline.

Does he deserve one, though? He hasn't done anything useful, he's just been standing next to a bench.

Oh, it absolutely is. Tradition for tradition sake leads to so many bad practices.

There is a HobbyDrama community, but it is rather lacking in content at the moment. !hobbydrama@lemmy.world

This is all stuff you'd have a reason to know in character when a setting includes something as impactful as the ability to use the dead as a witness. If the victim can be a witness, you need to either fool or silence the victim post-mortem.

I'm writing a murder mystery adventure in my spare time, so... Yeah, it came up.

1. Burn the body.
2. Kill a stranger.
3. Wear a disguise.
4. Hide the head.
5. Cast Speak With Dead yourself so nobody else can.

There are many ways to keep a witness from identifying you. You just need to be creative.

I don't know for certain if he deserves it or not, but this guy will always be known as the guy accused of using a buttplug to cheat at chess. There's no escaping it at this point.

There's actually a fun story about a guy that roleplayed taking a dump during a dungeon delve. It ended in disaster.

Nah, screw the law. Just stick within ethical limits and we're clear. If my bestie asked me to murder a dude, I would say no, but if she asked me to punch a cop, then it's cop punching time.
