This is the difference between a DM and a great DM. Rules are there for a reason, but they should never stand in the way of fun. The DM is not a referee, he/she is also playing the game and having fun.

[@Defiring]

@@kharnthebetrayer8251 Lol depends, there is this French Table top show called "aventure", and like, the players always do the most random stuff, so the story completely changed from what was originally intended and the DM had to change all the maps and the like due to one 100 Nat too many, but it was great.

I mean it's like how people in most fantasy universes don't worship the gods who they've seen. Thor is flying around on earth and almost nobody actually prays to him, yet catholicism is still going strong on earth 616 (well a bit less strong now that krakoa defeated death but still).

[@Steve-xo5pq]

​@@apersonwhomayormaynotexist9868 that might be true in comics (idk I don't read comics) but that's definitely not true in most fantasy/fictional settings. The idea of a pantheon of God's that have limited ability to interfere in the material world, yet are very much real and present is a common trope in fantasy. In the forgotten realms, everybody knows the gods exist and they have even had avatars that take human form and DO directly interact with the material plane, yet people still worship them. Or how about the Elder Scrolls universe? Pretty similar situation and again, worshipping the divines is a big deal in Tamriel.

Completely inaccurate. We don't follow any rules for acronyms as seen with SCUBA. The creator said it's jif.
