[QUOTE="Grogg of the North, post: 6082091, member: 6682960"] @[I][B][U][URL="http://www.enworld.org/forum/member.php?u=6705473"]NuSair[/URL][/U][/B][/I] If you take a look at the BoED, it talks about playing an exalted character and one thing it talks about is how an Exalted character would never willingly trade their exalted status to accomplish X. Sometimes the PCs may gear up for a doomed last stand and blindly ignore the door marked "Exit". If he's asking for things that violate the spirit of the vow, such as "borrowing" a magic cloak or trying to wear hide armor then I would make it pretty clear that the next time he tries that he's going to get some serious repercussions. It has always been my experience that when a character has something like VoP they need to roleplay part of it. Like what they do with the wealth they get from adventuring. Do they donate to a church? Feed the hungry? Spend it on having people raised from the dead? @[I][B][U][URL="http://www.enworld.org/forum/member.php?u=4679"]Loren Pechtel[/URL][/U][/B][/I] I've always treated it as Vow of Poverty, not Vow of Stupidity. If your VoP character is making a trek across the desert on a religious pilgrimage, then there is no reason why he shouldn't be able to bring enough water to reach the next oasis despite the text saying you can only have enough for one day.
