[QUOTE="Fradak, post: 7284702, member: 6805410"] Completely out of subject, but I wanted to share the story with you. I just started to play rpg with my 4 years old boy and it was great 😉 In short: No rule, no dice, 1 DM - 1 player, wizard with elemental magic. Best parts: [B]DM[/B]: What's your character name? [B]Alex[/B]: Alexander The Great Wizard! (his name is Alexander IRL, as you could guess) After he killed some orcs raiders attacking a village: [B]DM[/B]: You follow their tracks back to their cave but there is a river blocking your path, what do you do? (expecting some ice spell, magical stone bridge, or fly, wings spell) [B]Alex[/B]: How did the orcs crossed it in the first place? [B]DM[/B]: (Shìt! You got me this time) Ok, you search and find their boat. In the orc cave: [B]DM[/B]: You enter the armory [B]Alex[/B]: I disguise myself into an orc and enter the next room. [B]DM[/B]: In the next room, the guards say : Hey! What are you doing here?" [B]Alex[/B]: I'm a guard, hum, guarding. [B]DM[/B]: "Fine, we'll go to sleep, you keep watching" [B]Alex[/B]: "Ok, sleep well." I enter the next room and close the door behind me. [B]DM[/B]: The Orc King is in front of you, "It's the king's room, guards can't enter here. Get out!" [B]Alex[/B]: I make a diversion and launch a fireball on him. "Look over there!" [B]DM[/B]: The king is burned but not dead. He attacks you with his axe. [B]Alex[/B]: I make a stone wall to protect me. [B]DM[/B]: Ok. You are now between a stone wall and a closed door with, on the other side, the awakened guards trying to enter. [B]Alex[/B]: I take off the handle so they can't enter. (This!) Later: [B]Dm[/B]: You cross the bridge. (bridge of Khazad-dûm style) [B]Alex[/B]: I wait for the orc and when they cross the bridge after me, I make a big wind to push them into the chasm. [B]DM[/B]: oO! I didn't expected much from him but I suppose it was a mistake. That's all folks (not really, but we have a game to run). Thank for reading. [/QUOTE]
