You inspired me yesterday, so I had to share my side of things. Honestly, I’m a miserable DM. I tried it once and hated it. So I jump at the opportunity to tell it from the player’s point of view.

The choice of character does give the DM a clear sign of what the player wants to do.

Thanks for the post!

(BTW how do I refer to you in my posts?... I read your Bio, which is rather silent about your name, and calling you anything with Stupid in it makes me feel bad).
