POE: You descend down the dark, shadowed stairs into a crypt. The smell of rat feces is pungent and the floors are covered with the bones of small animals whose species you cannot identify…
UGLYDOG: I want to look at the bones and see if I can chew on one!
POE: You trigger a trap and a the skeleton of an ogre rises from the ground. Abima, it’s your turn.
ABIMA: sighs. I want to stab him with my sword.
ICE BAT: You have to roll to see if you hit him.
ABIMA: I’m standing right next to him! What do you mean I ‘have to see if I hit him’?”
POE: It’s part of the game.
ABIMA: This is dumb. rolls his 20-sided die. 18.
POE: Plus your modifiers…that makes it 25. You hit.
ABIMA: OF course I hit! I’m standing RIGHT NEXT TO HIM!
UGLYDOG: Roll to see how much damage you do!
ABIMA: I’M STANDING RIGHT NEXT TO HIM! rolls his 4-sided die. 1.
POE: You graze him, but it’s a hit.
ABIMA: I graze him? I GRAZE him???!!! I'm standing RIGHT NEXT TO HIM! This game is stupid.
MOXY: Whoa! You guys are NERDS!
