[QUOTE="Mephistopheles, post: 1898451, member: 4460"] Excellent. This could lead to some instant laughs and ensuing DM beatings with just one roll. Player: "I spent 12 hours writing a background for my new character, Manus McManus. I have his physical appearance described right down to the detail of the whisker sprouting mole in his right armpit. I have personality traits, aspirations, fears and desires. I have his rather eccentric wardrobe planned out for each day of the week. I know what his favourite meal is and how he prefers his beer warm rather than cold. I know Manus better than I know myself." DM: "That's great! Now there's just one thing we need to do before Manus is ready for play. Roll a d10 for me." Player: "Ok, sure." *rolls d10* "I got a 1. What's that for?" DM: *thinks 1d10-1 means 0 lives for Manus* "Hmm, hand me Manus's character sheet along with that sharp slice of mango on your plate. I have some bad news..." [/QUOTE]
