[QUOTE="MavrickWeirdo, post: 99718, member: 107"] I recently dragged my family together to form a gaming group. (Siblings and Spouces) We have only had the first character-making session so far, but I thought I would share some of the Highlights from that. Player Question: Can I be an Albino Elf? DM: Fine, whatever. Player: Can I have an Orc Double-Axe? DM: You can [I]OWN[/I] one, if you want . But with your low strength I'm not sure you can lift it. Another player: I want a horse. DM: You can buy a horse. 2nd Player: But it says here that Feed for 1 day weighs 10 lbs. If the horse carries a couple of days feed then it won't have any room for me. Do horses really eat 10 lbs a day? DM: Don't worry about it. 3rd Player: Can I have soapmaking skill? DM: What? 3rd Player: Can I have soapmaking skill? I want my druid to make herbal soaps and ointments. DM: Fine, put it down as soaps and lotions. It will let you make minor non-magical lotions to help healing later on. 1st Player: Ooh a 10ft ladder is only 3cp. I think I'll get one. 4th Player (Me): What are you going to do with a 10ft ladder? 1st Player: It might come in handy. 4th Player: I can hear it now, a guardsman calling out "Stop him! The Albino Elf with the 10ft ladder!" 1st Player: Fine, well your smith will be pretty obvious carring around an anvil all the time. 4th Player: He doesn't have to carry an anvil all the time, the book says he can make weapons with just raw materials, artisan's tools, and a fire. DM: You can't make weapons without an Anvil. 4th Player: well, I probably have a small "traveling anvil" in my artisan's tools. DM: Well, ok, but you'll only be able to make small stuff like daggers and arrows on the traveling anvil. 4th Player: Fine. [/QUOTE]
