Of course not.

That's wht NPCs are for.

Load the party up with a few Red-Shirts, and let the bullets fly ... or phasers ... or flaming arrows ... or fire-balls ... or whatever.


Captain Kirk : "Spock, this mysterious new planet we have encountered. I want to lead an away team."
Spock: "Captain, I advise against it. Long-range sensors have determined there are precisely 3 ways to die on this planet."
Captain Kirk: "Very well, then, Spock. You, me, and ~three~ security guards will beam down to the surface."

Guess who is going to die ...

158) When I GM, I may not launch into the "I am constant as the Northern Star" speech if a player challenges my decision.

I did that once. He was a munchkin so I made a "Twarf".

It was a dwarf/troll crossbreed that got all of the ST of a troll (I don't really remember how high it was, but it was the max allowed strength in the game) powered by FP/sec. Also Regen with a FP/regen point/Sec. He had really neat stuff, but I could survive it, then 1 shot him with a hit to the skull.

cool, my character that was made for ******* off our munchkin was a much more stupider and obnoxious version of his character, and it wasn't just because he was a munchkin, he would make the same damn character over and over again, an elven wizard or as close as a version he could make in the game, and he would always use this character to attack his party members just because they where in the way of his magic spells. So I made a character that was essentially a parody of the character, I wouldn't cast area spells where other PCs were but every chance that I could get I would throw a fireball at him when there were any enemies near him. Suffice it to say, he was ******.

160) I'm no longer allowed to use Bluff skill to convince another PC he is a woman trapped in a man's body.

161) Even if I have Animal Empathy, and the text says I can use Influence skills on animals, I can't use Sex Appeal on a goat. I'll have to use the Technical Grappling rules to have my way with it.

162) Nor am I allowed to have my way with goats.
