From the "Freudian slip" department

My worst happened one summer when I was DMing on the beach, for a group consisting partly of women, who happened to be wearing their swimsuits. If you ever find yourself in such a situation, try and keep your mind on the game. I failed to do so, and during combat with a dragon, I asked one player to roll her "save vs. Breast Weapons."

I don't know which of us was more embarrassed.
 



When I was a teenager, with yon raging hormones, I fancied myself a writer and used to write stories where I was the buxom damsel in distress in various teenage movies (the one in question being a Sean Astin film called "Toy Soldiers.") Anyway, of course I used to write in sex scenes, not knowing squat about sex, but I wrote it in anyway. I had one that I'd written and cut into a small booklet, and I'd tucked it into my DMG before moving overseas.

Cut to a year later when a female friend and I set up a D&D group with 3 big, burly, hot Marines. Being a ditsy chick, I naturally gave my DMG to the Marine who agreed to DM... yeah ... you see where this is going.

First session ... this big beautiful man pulls out the DMG and says "I found this, uh, dream or something that someone wrote down?" Holy crap. Was that embarrassing. Of course, my female friend, knowing me pretty well, found it hysterically funny. The Marine was kind enough to just hand it to me and not say anything else, but I don't think he and I ever had another one-on-one conversation. Ever. I wouldn't be surprised if there were a copy floating around the Marine House, though :P

Ok...D&D on the beach. I think we have a winner for the most geeky thing I've ever read, and I have done some geeky things. (Hands over trophy to AuraSeer).

Secondly, I willing fail my saves vs. Breast Weapons. WILLINGLY.

Nonsense. It's summer, the weather is fine, why play in the house?

I'd happily play in my back yard if several of the other people in my group could control their colorful language better, or at least the volume at which they use it. I don't need them teaching the neighbor's children a whole new set of vocabular words. As is, I sometimes have to threaten to close the windows on them when we are inside.
