[QUOTE="Telperion, post: 1767717, member: 15711"] The things that you described aren't all about roleplaying. Eating, taking care of your mount and stuff like that are more about upkeep than roleplaying. However: if he isn't allowing you to sell items you have crafted (such as deerskins, bearskins, etc.) then this is something to complaing about. If you do not have any skill in curing hides and such stuff then there's a good chance no one really wants to buy your stuff. Without skill any real skill it isn't likely you are producing quality stuff. As to the getting things wrong part: where does it say that vampires do not turn to ashes when the instant they hit 0 hitpoints? Where does it say that werewolves do not frequent graveyards? Even if such information was printed somewhere your DM can change any and all parts of the game if he feels like it. If you feel that you need something from the general items section in the PHB aks your DM the following: is it assumed that you are carrying all the "necessary" stuff that you need on your adventures? It could simply be that your DM doesn't want to burden you with upkeep. Personally I demand that my players keep track of every trail ration and arrow they carry, but that's just me. There are a whole lot of things that characters can spend their money on. Should your DM feel that common items aren't important enough to merit attention there's a section in the DMG that talks about static upkeep. For example: if you are living by eating average food, using average lodging (when available) and using average tools then there's a sum of money you remove from your funds once per month, week, etc. That way you get the feeling you are consuming resources, although you don't have to worry about the actual upkeep. Personally I think you should talk about these things with your DM and see what he thinks about them. [/QUOTE]
