Back in 4e I had a human fighter who was always drunk. Well he had a once per encounter ability sort of thing that allowed him to basically attack twice as one action. Well since my character was drunk I decided (with permission from my DM) to do two attack tools for it. The first was a nat 20 "you cleave the goblin's head right off" second roll......nat 1 "as you spin around to hit the second goblin you're thrown off balance and cleave the goblin's spearhead instead" turns out those goblins only had spears so he became the most useless goblin in the encounter.
Answer Greyhobbit13's question: What PC race would you like to be in real life, and why?
Well for me there are two answers to that question. 1) Dragonborn or just Dragon cause dragons are amazing and my secret want to be one is strong. 2) Half elf because longer life spans an well ....they have good looks instead of looking like a stressed raptor all the time.
The most jaw dropping epic kill scene you ever witnessed? As a PC, DM or even Spectator.

It would have to be a boss kill from a Critical Role episode. But it's so hard to pick just one. Ryshan? The Briarwoods? Kvarn? Sandor? Technically not a kill but both fights with Kern were pretty epic.
What is the story behind your introduction to D&D or table top RPG's?
In Middle School, we had several after class extracurricular programs called "8th Hour." One of these was a Roleplayers Club and was hosted by my 7th grade math teacher. I had played pseudo-RPGs at that point like Hero Quest (the board game, the Sierra PC game of the same name wasn't out yet) but hadn't done any true roleplaying. We played the Lord of the Rings RPG, in which I rolled a Dwarven warrior, and our first combat took like 3 sessions because we were so clueless.
(any? Okay...) I would be a God, because, JUST THINK ABOUT IT!
What Elemental Plane (Fire, Air, Water, Earth) would you rather dive into?
I meant the core classes (from the PHB), but I like the ingenuity.
Man, earth all the way. Earth.
What elemntal plane would ou least want to go to?
Dang it I posted to late again. I would rather dance with a cockatrice. A nice slow waltz or--NO! THE ARGENTINIAN TANGO! That is now the top of my bucket list. Tango with a cockatrice.

Which card would you want to draw from the Deck of Many Things (I don't know how to hyperlink, look it up in the Items Section) that contains ONLY negative effects?

What is your favorite shop on the Citadel?
Everytime I go to the citadel my first stop is the candy shop man. Guilty pleasures.
If you could be any D&D race IRL, what would it be?
Do not expect people to be smart, but do not allow them to be stupid. If there is one thing I have learned it is this.

My Mountain Dwarf Fighter, from the Peaks of Winter Play by Post. I'm very proud of him. Thanks to VillainTheory for backstory inspiration.

Air - The exhilaration of falling forever without a care in the world would be too tempting.
Would you rather... Dance with a cockatrice OR Snuggle with a Basilisk

Luck Blade. But it's pretty OP.
Which super hero are you most like and why?
Peter Pan. I refuse to accept the inevitable.

I would love to visit prehistory and see what our stone age ancestors really lived like, maybe meet some neanderthals.
would you like to see a 5E compatible version of Gamma World?

Yes - 5th edition of any sci-fi setting would be amazing honestly.

I love all my children equally....uh, I mean, I use Forgotten Relams mostly, but I love Mystara and Greyhawk. I can't think of any that I don't like.
Is there a setting that you would refuse to play in? (published or just a popular genra that irks you)
geek dad with 3 geek kids
Middle Earth. It deserves to be left alone and anything anyone tries to do to better it will fail. You can't make perfect better.
If you could jump into any painting (Blue's Clues Style) which painting would you choose?

Most I can think of are too violent or dull. Maybe one of the M.C. Escher drawings with the stairs.
Have you ever played d&d with siblings or other relatives?
geek dad with 3 geek kids
No. (lol)

Eurayle, the -2 saving throw card, seems like the best bet. I don't make a lot of saving throws lol
What popular TV show do you think would make a good backdrop for a d&d adventure?
