125. I can't have the dragon's treasure be "a crayon drawing by the dragon's son", defending this with "it's a treasure to the dragon."

Surviving drawings are especially precious to a dragon, given how easily wax melts and paper chars.

They're doing it wrong:

1) enchantment by deed. do you have any idea how much magic is in the picture?

2) Ransom the painting. Don't kill the dragon, steal the painting and get him to pay his treasure of intrinsic value.

Is the dragon some sort of middle manager in this world?

Any suspicious-looking cloud could actually be a disguised Flying Carpet upon which Mungo had mounted a heavy-duty Staff of Mind Control in a light ballista frame; the only defense against the Flying Mind Control Staff was a skullcap made of gold foil, which we were more than happy to sell to the other PCs at cost of materials plus a small markup to accommodate the labor that went into the manufacture...

The problem for the GM was that every time she tried to incorporate one of our creations in her game, we would abandon that particular sub-plot and come up with a new one. She finally gave up and just told us to cease and desist after my buddy (a dwarf sorcerer) and I (a half-orc bard) managed to create opposing religions inspired by differing interpretations of a mythological figure that we had based upon Elvis, then set them against each other in a religious war that split the party into fighting on opposing sides.

126. I am not to utterly confuse my D&D3.X GM by equipping my first level character using GURPS Low-Tech, which she does not own, instead of the D&D3.0 Arms and Equipment Guide, the 3.5 Player's Handbook, and Pathfinder's Ultimate Equipment.

126a. This goes double when I list things that she didn't even know existed, like the yurt and the hunga-munga.

126b. The character is also not to be better equipped than the rest of the party combined as a result.
