But i felt worst when he sent his fiendish werecrocodile cleic crusader ruby knight vindicator knight of the raven mindbendr to kill my character...I probabyl deserved it

    Now, monks on the other hand- they change alignment- they don't so much Fall as cease to be able to advance as monks, but close enough.

    How's a monk fall? Decide the fate of the world on the toss of a coin would be a possibility.

    A good parody resembles too closely what it is parodying, insofarasmuch it becomes what it is trying to parody.

    Actually, not being able to advance as a monk is usually a huge improvement.

    If you managed to make a Monk non-Lawful whilst he's using his Slow Fall ability, then he'd Fall in two ways at once.

    I, personally, can't wait until how to make Wonder Fall(s) comes up.

    Drop a Helm of Opposite Alignment on him! Since he's using Slow Fall, it'll fall faster than him, thus hitting him. It requires good aim, though.

    Grease is actually much better than Improved Trip, as Fighters generally have good Str, but poor reflex saves and balance checks.

    First, convince the player that the way he's running his fighter fits better with a paladin instead. Offer to let him/her retrain fighter levels to paladin levels. Pretend to be kind and understanding and acknowledge that the Paladin Code needs work. When the poor schmuck agrees, the next plot hook is "This child is fated to grow up as an Evil Overlord." Bam, fallen fighter... sorta.

    Also, in case anybody missed it:

    We're tired of threads about making paladins fall. Grown-up DMs work with their players, and don't try to antagonize them. We certainly don't need more than 1 thread every 2 months about it.

    Thank you.

    Pretty sure this isn't one.

    This is just a humorous thread mainly involving puns. (I support a well-hidden pit trap, by the way.)

    Also, this won't stop them; they're generally started by newbies, who haven't seen how often they occur yet, so anyone starting a new pallyfall thread won't be likely to have seen your imperative.

    I was trying to translate the intent of the thread.

    I actually think I was rather successful.

    Hence the "In case anyone missed it" line, of course. My apologize for coming off terse, I'd just gotten off a rather...unpleasant phone call.

    I think he meant to say you can't fall anymore when you're already at the bottom.

    Fighter falling, acording to what we see around the forums:
    -You picked your feats in a nonrandom way? YOU FALL!
    -You picked skills? YOU FALL!
    -You use tactics superior to those of a mindless zombie? YOU FALL!
    -You defeated an oponent? YOU FALL!
