An actually helpful answer is that there is a creator on tiktok called offlain who makes a series of videos called "try not to get scared scariest stories". The series has a rotating cast of characters such as Mr teeth, the meatworm, evil knife guy, the fuck you guy, Jeffs the killer, and The Creature. The creature is a cow that the narrator is scared of. Here's a popular The Creature story: I am so excited for the movie, I exclaims with excitement. But little did I know it would be a feature, a creature feature. Featuring... The Creature."
We were playing blades in the dark, they were sneaking into the back of a warehouse to steal some blood while the rest of the party made a distraction out front, the dog was right there and he didn't think he'd be able to sneak past it. He could have stabbed it but chose not to I guess. Maybe he thought that would be more cruel?
That was how it worked in the playtest. The sidebar saying "pick a race you really are and pretend to be half the other race" is gone from the 2024 PHB. Rules as written, you can only be fully one race, this of course doesn't actually matter as the whole thing is imaginary bullshit but in organised play it'll sometimes come up.
One time I was just trying to do my money laundering restocking in GTA:O (iirc it was money laundering, it was whatever business you got when the game went free on epic games) and a guy on the flying motorbike killed me for no reason and it wasted a ton of time, eventually I killed him back and he spawned in the desert in front of me so I spawn killed him until he apologized.
I'm not saying what I did was right, I did it in the heat of the moment. But man, that game is really good at making you mad at people.
Is he stupid?
