[QUOTE="Scud-O, post: 261774, member: 6041"] [B]"You're NOT THERE!"[/B] our eleven ranger, arcane archer wannabe constantly interjects into conversations/transactions at which he's not present. he loves to try to search rooms that he isn't in or buy things from shops that he didn't enter with the rest of the group. we usually let him finish the first statement/question before yelling in unison at him. then that got boring, so we made a sign to hold up whenever he started in. [B]"is that (insert creature or character type) an elderly British farmer (insert creature of character type again)?"[/B] our DM is a wonderfully dramatic storyteller, moving around, mimicking the movements and attacks of NPCs and creatures during battles, describing rooms and battles in minute detail, really immersive stuff. BUT, almost ALL of his NPCs speak like elderly British farmers. he's really worked to overcome it and has been coming up with completely new and distinctive voices for characters for quite a while now. but last week he slipped up and made the Apothecary we visited an elderly British farmer guy. we razzed him a while and then moved on. an hour or so later, when a group of Ghouls attacked us and our DM was up mimicking their shuffling walk and gurgling moans, our Monk asked "Are those Ghouls elderly British farmer Ghouls?" there are many, many more, but my little fingers are tired from typing now.
