The Gamers: Dorkness Rising2008

Cass:
[as Silence and Luster are being taken by a Death Demon] Why don't I get a save?

Lodge:
It's a Death Demon. It's fear aura is too strong. You *can't* roll a successful save.

Cass:
Incorrect.

Lodge:
What's your willpower save?

Cass:
Plue nine.

Lodge:
The DC to beat his aura is 32. You would need to role a 23, on a twenty-sided die in order to succeed. Now, I don't have a math degree. But that's impossible.

Cass:
[holds up his d20] A natural twenty is an automatic success no matter the circumstances.

Lodge:
You still have only a five percent chance of rolling that twenty.

Cass:
Can I make the roll? I mean it's in the rules. Or is it okay if we play by the rules?

[Cass rolls his d20 and it lands on a one:
automatic failure]

Lodge:
Ooooooohhh! Oh, fumble! That means you're *completely* compelled and *I* get to control your character until you snap out of it!

[Cass angrily gives Lodge his character sheet]

Lodge:
Since we're playing by the rules, I know you don't mind.

Cass:
Oh, shut up, Kevin.
