[QUOTE="STARP_JVP, post: 2497389, member: 31580"] I'm just curious if anybody here has played D&D, or some other RPG, while either drunk, stoned or otherwise impaired. If so, what humourous stories lie in your experience? I don't drink or do drugs (GEEK!) but I know folks who do, some of whom are gamers too. One friend of mine gathered together with his gaming group, all of whom had been at the jimmies for several hours. It was [i]Dark Sun[/i], and my friend was playing a Mull (half-dwarf). He decided to go hunting, armed with only a greatsword. He chased a bull (I think) through the wilderness for two whole hours of game time, with the majority of the action consisting of repetitive dice-rolling. All players were glued to the table, watching each dice roll with fascination. For two hours this kept up, before the DM decided to end it and orchestrated a fight with the bull, which the Mull won. This exercise, which in a normal game would have consumed about two minutes, took over two hours in this particular instance. And nobody got bored. Another time, the same friend was stoned and playing [i]Alternity. [/i]In the game, the PCs decided to play D&D, with one PC serving as the DM, so they had a game within a game. They briefly had a game within a game within a game as one of the PC's PC's decided to have the PC PCs play a role-playing game. So you have the real GM, playing an NPC with a D&D PC who is playing another GM. After a while they got so confused and sat there laughing for about three hours. I am not making this up. [/QUOTE]
