Well, now it is

ah yes, ROG

Loved seeing them back in the 1990s

The average person has one testicle, so who knows?

Asking someone to write fantasy without putting their own lived experience into the writing would be counterproductive anyway. Good characters should have a little bit of yourself in them

I know you kid, but rolling without the DM asking you to is a dick move and a faux pas at a table. You really shouldn’t do that. Same thing happened with Critical Role and the “roll for scry” moment. It puts the DM in a position where they might have to confront you, deny you the roll and sour a moment. It puts pressure on them to allow you to do something, which players often abuse - someone spins a tale of doing a quadruple backflip, landing on someone’s head, attacking and bumping the dude into lava, rolls before the DM can say “there is no lava nearby but…” and puts them in a really awkward situation, especially with high rolls.

What an interesting position. So, ultimately, you feel that, if you can’t personally shatter the laws of reality and time, then you don’t have “agency”? I literally cannot even imagine trying to DM for you. I feel so sorry for your past DMs. The story’s either collaborative, or it’s not, and it seems you are just completely unwilling to collaborate within the confines of a given world. You don’t want to play RPGs, you just want to write fanfiction.

Gotta get the pommel engraved with some ancient runes that spell out BMF. 🤌

A shoutout to a much loved player character in one of the other connected campaigns on our ForeverDM’s Discord

I’d say it’s an Oath of Devotion, but this being a rogue, it’s Oath of Redemption.

They being the culture. Hence the funny looks!

The original Boblin comic did have the party interrogating him for an hour, but it wasn’t out of suspicion. https://i.imgur.com/KEgaxr0.png

That’s just the intro cutscene of a metal gear or splinter cell game.

also worth noting that fallout originally used GURPS before switching for copyright reasons

My favorite move there when someone points out thing that contradict is to say, “Yes. That’s what you were told.” Imply there’s something mysterious to uncover about why those facts don’t gel. Ðis is how a lot of Elder Scrolls lore works

Totally fair. Every table is different.

I’ve learned that NPCs should have the bare minimum of background necessary for my sessions. If the players like the NPC, it they become useful later on, that’s when I start fleshing them out. Of course, the NPC needs to survive long enough for that to happen.

Oh. I see. I thought the washing had something to do with her being a beholder.
