In D&D, my monk attacks at +20/+20/+20/+15/+10/+5 and does upwards of 23 damage on average per hit, combined with an AC in the upper 30's.
In real life, despite the fact that I'm a fifth-degree black belt, I screw up "Trapping the Well" with my partner and send us both crashing to the ground with our legs tangled up while all the lower-belts look at their teachers and say, "Is that a secret black-belt move?"
In D&D, I have a Fort save of +12, combining Fort Good, Divine Grace, and a naturally high Constitution.
In real life, I get sinus infections if I'm off my allergy medication for more tha a few days.
In D&D, my powerful Diplomacy checks convince everyone that my way is the proper way.
