[QUOTE="Piratecat, post: 5239224, member: 2"] Similarly, my rogue Dranko's old rules from Sagiro's ongoing campaign (pretty much stolen directly from Dylrath, now that I think about it.) 1. Don’t tell the guard you’re going to go with him. 2. Avoid stealing stupid things. 3. No socks in the icebox. 4. Half-orcs do NOT eat quiche. 5. Too many rats can nibble the halfling. Rat-fishing and rat sausages will never be popular. 6. Avoid the evil baker. 7. Don’t hit the monster with a bush. 8. A frontal assault is the fastest way to die. 9. Always club the mage first. <Note: party members wish the word “evil” inserted here.> 10. Heal first, chase and fight second. 11. Look at the ceiling. Yes, now! 12. Sigils are icky. Don’t read them. 13. Bad things come in big boxes. 14. Tie down the rope before jumping ship. 15. Look under the altar, or under whatever is heaviest. 16. Don’t leap the monster. Yes, even this time. 17. When given freedom, take it. 18. If you seal a room shut, search it first. 19. Don’t sass the archmage or the assassin. 20. Look both ways before crossing the carriage-way. 21. Everything is funnier with a monkey. 22. Everything is our fault. 23. Ask for stuff. You never know. 24. I take the one on the left; Morningstar gets the one on the right. 25. Three choices: “subtle”, “unsubtle”, and “stupid.” 26. Low expectations make for a happy half-orc. 27. Don’t kill your best friends by mistake. 28. Please refraining from taunting the dire bear. 29. Let Ernie offer condolences to the newly bereaved. 30. Armor makes a lousy pillow, but beholders make a worse alarm clock 31. Never sleep alone in a 10’ x 10’ room 32. Lizards are sneaky. Don’t trust them. [/QUOTE]
