We've been switching DMs per module in the War Of The Burning Sky Campaign. This has actually been kinda fun, but its also raised a few issues. (I probably should break this off into a new thread). Anyways, the first DM gave his own character a freaking dragon. Ugh. Well, when it came to be my turn to DM I let him know that I wasn't going to let this dragon overly affect combat. He just smiled. I kow what he was thinking. I really hate to take something away from a player once they have it, just seems like bad form and all that. So in various combats where this player tried to use his dragon, he had problems with getting his wings caught in an overhead canopy once, and also got mired down in quicksand another time. I think the player figured it out because he's not tried to use the dragon in combat since then. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> Anyways, to the point about the bugbear. This same DM allowed the bugbear player to have a Vorpal weapon, just adjusting its attack bonus to +2, which is appropriate for our level (8). However, he did nothing for the special effect. Now I'm DM'ing this module, and I actually got to look up Vorpal and realized that our 8th level Bugbear was using a lev30 item! At best, following guidelines, this shouldn't have been available until lev26, IMHO. So the next session, since I hate to take anything back, I'm gonna rule that it stays at +2 prof., and that in Heroic level, it will only allow -1- damage dice re-roll if its maxed instead of every dice. Then at Paragon, he can have 2 dice rerolls, then 3 at epic, and finally, the full benefit at lev26, which is where he normally would have gotten it.Oh, and we put the first DM naked in the swamp for 3 days, chained up, with a sign that says "Free food - tastes just like chicken!"...   <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" />Does this sound pretty fair to everyone? Thanks.</blockquote>
