D&D lets you live out all kinds of fantasies, such as:
-Having everyone call you by your preferred name and gender
-Having a big group of friends who do everything together
-Making a reasonable wage as a freelancer
-Being able to murder the terrible leadership of your country
-Getting 8 hours of sleep
@jacethechicken Not to be pedantic, but tyrannicide and murder aren't necessarily the same thing. :)
@starbreaker @jacethechicken if a murderhobo does it it is automatically murder
@starbreaker @jacethechicken it's only tyrannycide if it comes from a specific region of France
Otherwise it's just sparkling murder
What's the EU going to do, hit me with a penalty that amounts to 2% of my annual revenue?
Let's see... nothing into nothing, carry the nothing...
@jacethechicken shit, you're right, I should just remind people that I only get my spells back from a full rest
@jacethechicken These are all legit points.
As a DM, it is my duty to ensure that the world is free of normalised bigotry, and has plenty of opportunities to resolve challenges in a variety of ways.
Also an interesting variety of peoples with practical and understandable (if not necessarily logical) agendas.
And occasionally push my players kink buttons, because I'm mean.
@wyrddrgn my current campaign is kinda a dreary place TBH -- it's basically a hypercapitalist hellscape modeled after the Wild West and Industrial Revolution, and all of my characters are pretty flawed at best. But in happier campaigns I deffo try to keep it Not Too Real lol
@jacethechicken When I GM warhammer 40k, it suddenly gets much less grim and much more LGBT positive.
But currently my Sunday D&D group are in a city which is pretty much monster ankh morpork. Ruled by a lich, a dragon, and a demon. And they're currently doing odd jobs for the hairless, tattooed, tabaxi woman who runs the bath house... who my wife's paladin has a serious blushy crush on.
@jacethechicken magic isn't real only because our culture prevents us from getting eight hours of restful sleep and replenishing our spell slots
@jacethechicken Now I wanna play D&D even more...
@jacethechicken
I will never not boost that
@jacethechicken and if you have a cleric, free healthcare
@jacethechicken I am too tired for this much truth, damn it!
I can't live out any of those fantasies cus I don't have freinds.
@jacethechicken
lmao to all of this
