    * The most terrifying song known to all pirates is not "Murmaider"
    * Cannot help an NPC blow up folks another player spent last two games befriending, even if they're giant spiders.
    * Cannot fall asleep cleaning floors to endear an NPC to us.

    * There is no such thing as "telepathic whisper"

    *Baba Yaga may not make an appearance in Ravenloft offering a reward for killing Baba Lysaga just on grounds of being an annoying copycat who tries too hard to be creepy.
    **Nor would she simply do it herself if Koschei the Deathless wasn’t being even more annoying at the moment, having deliberately interrupted her trip to kill Lysaga with unspecified shenanigans, requiring her full attention be given to a potion she’s brewing.
    ***Nor is she powerful enough to just leave whenever she feels like it and straight-up ignore the Dark Powers.

    *The Mad Mage’s insanity does not extend to breaking the fourth wall.
    **Especially not to try to replace his existing statblock with that of an epic-level wizard.
    ***He especially has not succeeded in doing so in the past, only to regret it because the different mechanics for prior editions meant he couldn’t land an attack roll or pass a skill check and had a terrible armor class.

    *Must take the setting and intended tone at least somewhat seriously.
