* All "refluffing" must now be preapproved by the entire table before the session begins no matter how official and "it's written in the book" the refluffing is.
** No. Not even if I provide page references, web comic examples, and developer tweets.

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing XII: A Thousand-Yard Stare is not Permiss
* If my fighter encounters a cursed item that turns him female, the proper response is not threatening to track down whoever set it out and make them female 'the old-fashioned way'.
** If, furthermore, said cursed item is going to cause him/her to give birth to... armoured, magic-eating, rat-sized quadrupedal... things... in about two months, it probably deserves more consideration than 'find a pit trap to give birth into later'.

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing XII: A Thousand-Yard Stare is not Permiss
*If I'm a wizard, I should not buff myself to be a better fighter than the fighter, or summon 4 extra fighters.
*As a Hexblade Warlock or Tomelock with Booming Blade and Shillelagh, I should not buff myself with Armor of Agathys, and then proceed to engage in a 1v1 melee fight with the local warewolf that terorises the village, only to have him running away from me crying for mercy.
*I will no logner fireball a Hag and her hoard of zombies when she threatens my group, before she has her evil moment.
*I should not become Colosal and stomp on the BBEG of the game the first time I meet him, leaving him dead and then have my pal disintergrating his body, as he was supposed to beat us for dramatic tension.
*I shall not play an evil necromancer in a party full of goody-two-shoes. And, if I do, I should know better than having "if I raise them as undead we can be a happy party" as my character goal
*Murdering someone just because he has a collection of demon-worshiping stuff in his home or laughs maniacly anouncing that the evil of this land will kill us all is no excuse and does not stand in court. It's still murder-hobo behaviour, just with extra steps.

* Being under a curse is only negative ECL if the curse affects you.
** Requesting a curse of "-6 to all perform(dance) checks" and then challenging enemies to dance-offs before fighting to the death with conventional weapons doesn't count.

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing XII: A Thousand-Yard Stare is not Permiss
*Pokemon and Cyberpunk don't mix.
**Can't do a game about people who were combined with pokemon against their will by a corrupt megacorp that owns the league
***A party that consists of a cyborg whose grafts were created by retro engineering various steel type and "living object pokemon," a man whose limbs were replaced with modified symbiotic Beldoms that assimilate more and more of his biomass as they evolve and fuse with each other, a girl who got the detective Pikachu treatment with a ghastly, and three people forcibly mutated into human/pokemon hybrids—one an Evee, one a Slugma, and one a Magikarp—can not possibly work as a group.
****it's hard to take down a megacorp when half the party likes the mods they were given.
*****Can't just decide "screw society, I'm gonna live as a Pokemon out in the wilderness"
******Must not ignore that most people would think being part Pokemon is cool and that the PCs would probably be celebrities... and the Mgacorp's tech would make a fortune.
*******Cannot go on a long rant about how a human/Magikarp hybrid, combined properly, would be the ultimate amphibious super soldier even ignoring the potential for a human to harness the power of Gyarados.
********Cannot ignore the "only four moves at a time rule."
*********As always, PCs are expected to be wearing pants.I also answer to Bookmark and Shadow Claw.

.....I'd like a full transcript of that session, sounds like quite an experience And how do magikarp super soldiers work, killer splashes?
Also, the overall concept sounds like it might still work, taking into account that being (part) pokémon is generally seen as awesome so long as you can still talk and stuff.

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing XII: A Thousand-Yard Stare is not Permiss
1: It's a hypothetical situation.
2: Magikarp are probably the most successful species of pokemon, in a (Darwinian) evolutionary sense.
They are found as native wild pokemon in every region except Orre(which has no native pokemon and very few wild pokemon) and in every or almost every body of water in that region. Salt water, fresh water, clean water, water that is polluted all to hell. Magikarp might be useless in a fight, but they're noted to be exceptionally hardy.
They are noted to be able to use splash many times over the course of years to climb mountains(note: "splash" is "jump" in the original. That's why it's a normal type move) which implies that they can spend an extended period of time out of water. Between that and the pollution comment, it means that that it's likely that they need very little food, can eat almost anything, or both.
And they're almost always the most common spawn in lakes, rivers, ponds, and such with it being noted in the Pokedex that they reproduce like crazy.
And they don't have natural predators: There's a single mention of Magikarp ding when stranded on land and their corpses being scavenged but being as they are mostly scale and bone it's logical that most animals wouldn't bother unless they had a steel jaw and a lead stomach.
While Magikarp gets a few decent TMs... It's more about adding that heartiness to a humanoid body type that can, you know, be taught how to swim instead of relying on underdeveloped swim muscles. Perfect for amphibious assaults: No need for breathing apparatuses and who would be guarding a lake or river that's too polluted for anything but a "useless" pokemon to live in? Most would see it as a natural defenseI also answer to Bookmark and Shadow Claw.

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing XII: A Thousand-Yard Stare is not Permiss
I mean militarily speaking, knowing that Gyarados is the result of magikarp evolving, there is no reason NOT to go around grabbing up all the magikarp you can because they are so plentiful and seemingly useless and just putting them through a harsh training regimen to turn as many of them into gyarados trained to fight for the military. The military's starting position when it comes to anyone outside of it is to assume they're useless for combat until they've been put through the boot camp ringer anyways, and as long as you figure out the method that works to make them willingly evolve into a gyarados soldier loyal to your cause, they can just repeatedly catch whatever random magikarp they find as recruitment. so really, any pokemon navy worth its salt has at least one gyarados boot camp somewhere for that kind of thing.
