    When asked how to cope with depression:
    1. Get fifty feet of Horse-Hair rope, a handgun with no bullets, a goat, and a straight-razor that's honed and sharpened as close as it gets and has never cut human skin.
    2. Then, while reciting the prayer to Yog-Sothoth penned on the eighth page of the fifth chapter of the Necronomicon, sacrifice the goat by tying it up with the rope in sucha way that the knot forms a pentagram at it's back and slitting its throat with the razor.
    3. Baptize the hand-gun in the goat's blood while it's still warm, then sell it on Craigslist for five thousand dollars twice the combined cost of the rope, gun, razor, and goat--explain exactly what you did in the description.
    4. Use the profits to buy yourself something nice to take your mind off your troubles.

    Is not the answer they were looking for.

    *Asmodeus should not be the Big Good / Reasonable Authority Figure of the campaign.
    **Even if it does make some degree of sense due to the BBEG having a plan to harness/steal a significant portion of the power and divinity of Tharizdun that might actually work (or might blow up in his face in one of several horrible ways, most of which would also prove troublesome to the multiverse or at least Oerth, the worst of which being to free Tharizdun from his prison entirely), and Asmodeus having a vested interest in that not happening.

    Actually, that sounds like a great campaign idea, and it also makes a good premise for a large number of tieflings and warlocks.

    Complete Soundrel included hidden blades, one of which was the instrument blade.

    As written it was meand for Lutes and the like, and I no longer have the book, but I believe RAW the actual instrument didn't matter. I believe the blade itself counted as a dagger, although it might have been a shortsword.

    I actually quite liked the hidden blades, there were a nice selection and most of them used dagger stats, so a Rogue/Fighter could take Weapon Specialisation (Dagger), and have a bunch of places to hide a quickly deployed weapon. I kind of wish 5e would give rules for them, as it would definitely make me consider playing a Rogue (maybe Rogue/Bard).

    Playing a bagpipe is a minimum dc23, takes a Full round action during which a 5-foot step MUST be taken. Because it's harder to hit a moving target.

    *May not claim to be a “hacker” if my character can’t code, can’t crack passwords, and can’t hotwire anything.
    **Really good deception and intimidation skills, some miniature surveillance bugs that can be surreptitiously attached to a computer to record everything someone does on it, a set of boltcutters, a crowbar, a combat knife, shaped-charge explosives, an assault rifle with an underbarrel shotgun attachment, and breaching-rounds for the underbarrel shotgun are not a substitute for computer and electronic engineering skills.
    ***Even if I can get a password or open a door quite effectively with some combination of the above.

    *My GURPS character may not put all 100 starting points into the explosives skill and the wealth to purchase very large amounts of explosives.
    **Especially if I’m playing a corporate cop.

    Of course not!

    You need fifty points of Disadvantages to make sure you have the maximum amount of explosives. I recommend Impulsiveness (Self Control 6) and Pyromania (Self Control 6) as a good start.


    * Friend Computer likes me. However they do not like like me, and suggesting they do is treason.
