Anybody out there know any DMs that are "Wish Lawyers?" For those not in the know, I'll elaborate.

A Wish Lawyer holds you to the letter whenever your mage casts the "Wish" spell (9th level, I'm not too sure). For example, if you say "I wish I had a huge diamond in my hand," the diamond appears...INSIDE YOUR FREAKING HAND! You must now have your diamond surgically removed and your hand reconstructed. Nice.

Another example was wishing for a million platinum pieces to appear. They appeared...above the character. He took 1 hit point for every coin that brained him, and died under the onslaught of greed.

And yet another idiot forgot to wish for eternal youth ALONG WITH eternal life. He's a 700 year old mage who can't move because of arthritis and other conditions of aging. I'd be surprised if he remembered where he kept his spellbook!

FYI, I never participated in these, or any other, sessions of D&D. I hate the structure, and I like to play games my own way...

So cast another Wish!  I mean, you can't if you're dead, but the 700-year-old mage has no excuse for not Wishing away his arthritis.

EVIL WISH  LAWYER-NESS

I've only been in one D&D campaign...and that's about how it went. Although, the wish I made saved my life, even if it knocked me out for a few minutes. Out of 10 PC's that were there, less than half survived: me, the DM, and the DM's girlfriend, and maybe someone else. He decided that everyone else was leveling too fast for his taste...so he sent in a big ass dragon.

I think it's about time someone linked to this little story.

Congrats on level 15, KTK!

This is some serious thread necro, and I apologize.  I was just sifting through all the old tabletop RP related threads, for no particular reason.

Interestingly, one of my Shadowrun players, our elven Maya shaman, is going into a gunfight on Sunday's run that may or may not get her into gunfights with other players, while her character's in like, late second trimester at this point.  It's the Tlaloc's Pox run from Emergence; a bioweapons sample has dropped into the ghetto from orbit and everyone goes to fight for it.  This character hates Aztechnology so much she's willing to go into a fight while pregnant as fuck to make sure the Azzies don't save face by coming up with the prize (it was originally their bioweapon).

Man, my char LOVES her Aztechnology rocket launcher. It's the bastards at Renraku that were after. lol

I've never played D&D honestly, but I do read just about any books about the Drow. I loved Eilistraee. I'm so mad they did what they did to her when they rebooted Llolth. That was the one deity I gave a shit about except for Mystra and that Goddess has had just about the same done to her.

Shame on you, editors.

Seconded!
