"Hi, I'm Ted.  Ted Nugent."  "Axelrod, Axelrod Rimthruster, glad to meet you."  "Helena, Helena Handbasket."  Angcuru looks at me and says "no, you can't do that."What's your opinion, is it fair for a DM to do this?  I'm gonna play the character as a dead-serious ranger the rest of the time; I just want to lighten up the mood a bit sometimes, and it does seem like it'd be appropriate to the character.</blockquote>
