I always use the line "Anybody who would cheat at D&D is too pathetic for me to play with," and that usually nips it in the bud.The only off-chance of cheating we have is a girl who roles before her turn, and the other DM in our group definately doesn't like it. I may ask her, from now on, to role during her turn and not before, but it speeds up her round so much! Plus, she does roll in the open, even if it's early, so someone who pays attention can see how well she does.But, yeah, cheating is just....lame. Come on. You're telling a story. A failure by a hero who "should be able to do it" is just a plot device waiting to happen -- don't take that away. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
