I'm guessing Caliban is being coy here? If not, let's consider this:If 90% of adventures start the way you suggest, then WotC ( as well as every 3rd party publisher) could save some serious ink and pages with the adventure setup and just publish ONE SINGLE INTRO that applies to every adventure forward. That set up is so cliche it actually bothers me that someone would use it as a defense on this specific topic. But if we are going to go with how their anatomy doesnt fit the campaign:- Give it a high charisma, and there will be certain individuals who want to have "relations" (see Catherine the Great )- Who can earn gold by creating a "mechanical bull" entertainment in the not so cramped tavern- If the DM is going to be that much of an OCD nightmare that you will have to roll a Fort save, or they just narrate, that you randomly crap yourself, then you should probably quit right there, but if that's the only game in town, then you should probably insist that everybody make rolls, or that urination/defecation checks be mandatory: Hence, the Wizard is trying to get 8 hours of rest, well oops, your bladder disagrees, start over. Oh, you have been crawling around in the dungeon for a few hours, better make a roll, you might really need to take a dump as the evil high priest is about to make the sacrifice you were sent to stop.....Also, why the hell does anyone trust the mysterious stranger in the tavern. If it was me, I'd say lets take this guy out back and kill him, because since we are in cliche-land, there's a 50% chance that he is actually the bad guy in disguise trying to manipulate the party....or wait, maybe we could just hold him down under the centaur and make Intimidate checks (with a bonus) regarding the impending fecal consequences.....</blockquote>
