The earth is not going to stop spinning on its axis as a consequence or anything...To me (and no offence), it just seems like running a lv20 character in a 1st lv game, and then boasting when you steamroll over the opposition. Yeah, there certainly is nothing stopping you from running your game in said manner, but that sure begs the question - why do you even bother?Dnd is a wargame first and foremost. The main aim of the game is to kill stuff and loot their belongings, and then somehow attempt to rationalize your own actions with some storytelling (in a nutshell). Basically, I just feel that if it is less of a tactical wargame, and more of an immersive, storytelling experience you are after, I believe there are easily better alternatives rather than dnd which would suit your purpose better. It is not so much that I am so totalitarian that I expect everyone else to play dnd the same way I do, but more that it seems that you would be missing out on a lot by not playing it the way the designers intended it be run.<img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" /></blockquote>
