Roleplaying + Dinosaurs
“Ok, so the gelatinous cube is in front of you, taking up almost all of the hallway. You can see the mad wizard behind it, because it’s partially see-through, and he’s waving his arms and appears to be casting a spell. Everyone’s rolled initiative? Good, ok. Grusk is up first; what do you do?”
“Um, I guess I’ll charge the cube and swing my axe.”
“Ok, you’ll be moving for the next turn. Myron the Magnificent, you’re up. What do you do?”
“I cast Summon Dinosaur!”
“Miles… I keep telling you. You don’t have a Summon Dinosaur spell.”
“Look, I wrote up the stats and everything. Right here. I cast it.”
“It’s not in the standard book of spells!”
“Sherri, just let him cast it. This fight is going to take for-eeeeever as it is.”
“Fine. Fine. Ok, gimme that. All right. Roll.”
“It’s a critical!”
“Are you kidding me? Let me see those dice. Shit. Ok… so…”
“The dinosaur sweeps its rending jaws and claws through the gelatinous cube and knocks the mad wizard prone.”
“Ugh. Fine. Fine. Roll damage… right, well that’s that.”
“Are any of the rest of us going to get to go?”
“This dinosaur has a really high dex. I really should have nerfed these stats. Ok, so, the cube is now goo on the floor and the wizard is cackling on the ground.”
“The dinosaur charges forward to eat the wizard!”
“The dinosaur has already taken its action, and so have you. The other players get a chance to go, too. Ok, Chris, uh, I mean, Christoph the Golden, you’re up.”
“So… do paladins get to summon dinosaurs too? I think my God might be pretty into it. I know I am.”
