[QUOTE="Man in the Funny Hat, post: 3815153, member: 32740"] First time I (or the DM) ever played the game we were playing out a tavern brawl that spilled into the streets. One NPC pulled out a wand of Fireballs. The DM looked up the effects and said, "It CAN'T do THAT much damage! NOTHING would survive in the entire area of effect!" He then proceeded to houserule a series of damage rings where only the individual at the center took full damage. Each 5' ring beyond that took a lower number of dice of damage - in addition to getting your save for half. It would be a while before he'd realize that 1st level NPC's should not be using wands of Fireballs. Most of my own "preconceived notion" errors are just mispronouncing a few words I'd never seen before because unlike some people I actually pay attention. :) [/QUOTE]
