Suddenly you see the red glow of a Fireball further ahead in the forest, and you suspect your friend, Malex the Magnificent, is in trouble.Player 1: Blue.DM: What?Player 1: I reskinned my Fireballs to be blue last week, remember.DM: Oh, right. You see the blue glow, and you *know* it is your friend Malex who is in trouble. What do you do?Player 2: I ride towards the fire.DM: Right, Sir Bedrev wheels his trusty warhorse around, and...Player 2: Dragon!DM: What?! No, it was a fireball...Player 2: No, I decided to reskin my warhorse as a dragon. It's more cool to ride a dragon than a stupid old horse.Player 1: You cannot be riding a dragon, we are not high enough level for that.Player 2: Look, if *she* can reskin that war-axe we found into a mace because it fits her miniature better, then I can reskin my horse into a dragon. It's just a dragon with the same stats as a horse.Player 1: Look, a dragon can fly and breathe for damage...Player 2: Oh, but Binky is a good boy, he won't do any of those things, I promise.DM: (Sighs) Look, we'll talk about this later - you have a magician to rescue.Player 2: Right!Player 1: ( Reluctantly) Right.DM: Az'tor, I guess you start teleporting towards the fire too?Player 3: No, I fly.DM: (Sighs deeper.) Don't tell me, you've reskinned your teleport move as flight?Player 3: No, I merely use the Boots of Flying I just bought for our last reward... hey, why are you looking so funnily at me?</blockquote>
