>want to make it easy on the dm to introduce me to the party
>tell dm that my only motivation right now is to earn enough money to buy a ship so I can continue my family’s business of selling ice

>we roll initiative and the order is fighter, monk, me then boars
>fighter says he wants to attack a boar
>dm says that he has not noticed them yet and needs to make a perception check if he wants to help

>the boars are gone and the dm says this would not have happened if we had a healer
>decide to try and track the boar so I can take them out from a distance
>roll a 8 on survival and the dm says they went south but I think they went north
> none of the other party members want to help me find them and as I am about to give up the dm says “didn’t you say he had a stormy personality? I don’t think that he would just let it go”

3/3
>the next day as traveling dm asks us to make another wis save

>monk points this out to me and I says I shout in rage and start getting closer
>monk says “eh it’s his problem” and watches from a distance
>fighter was never pointed it out and so does not know whats going on
>man In black pulls out a crossbow and takes a few pot shots at me
>most miss but just as I get in range to cast a spell he crits and I’m out
>dm says something about needing a healer again
>fail two death saves before the monk stabilizes me with a single medicine check
>I guess on page 197 of the payers hand book it says that all you need to stabilize another person is a dc 10 medicine check
>ask the dm if I can just die so I can roll up a cleric because there is no way that my character can trust his party members after this
>dm says with a dc 10 nobody is going to die. Ever.
>kept quiet for the rest of the session
The salt was real that day unsure if I want to even continue playing
>dm says with a dc 10 nobody is going to die. Ever.
The correct answer is "I borrow the fighter's sword and stab myself with it until I die." Then you get out your phone and play porn really loudly while everyone else tries to finish the session.
>stab myself until i'm at zero hp
>before I even have a chane to make a death save both the fighter and the monk would make a medicine check and stabilize me
This one isn't nearly as bad.
Everytime I try to play in my irl friendgroup (3.5) no-one ever communicates a plan of attack. just as an example.
>Party of 6 or 7 i dont fuckin know
>walk through cave
>like 20 goblins making a stew and fuckin around
>I see one that looks like a spellcaster
>"Hey everyone we should try to take care of-"
>Three barbarians scream I CHARGE THE STEW
>Shitty hour long fight happens where barbarians try to pour over this pot of stew end up burning themselves
>Spellcaster makes the situation worse
>I keep missing
I dont know what the rest of them were doing, just fuckin around making sure the barbarians dont die. IRL's always do this shit.
>I can't hit the spell
Repeat until -10. Your only action is "I stab myself until I die" until they let you die. Either they let you or the entire game becomes "Save the suicidal monk".
You could just say your character leaves and make a cleric.
Or just don't play with this retarded group. Are you playing in a school for slow kids?
worst and first session i was ever in
>join a discord server for one of the games i was playing at the time
>see a DnD channel, join and ask if there any games going because ive always wanted to play but never had a group
>guy messages me saying he has a spot
>4 other players at the start of new campaign 2 girls 2 guys (1 guy is me)
>dm explains surrounding "your all in a tavern sitting at opposite ends of the tavern, what do you do"
> Me: " ill get some ale".
>dm: "no u need to go meet the other players"
>player 1: "we have no reason to there is no quest nobody talking nothing happening"
>dm: "ok fine "you all sit down at the same table and start talking about the bandits that have been seen in this area lately" what do you do next?
Silence...
>player 2 "i guess we look for bandits?"
everybody agrees
>we all leave town in a cart and dm pipes up and goes "after 2 days of travel you realise you have no food and water but you are coming upto a dwarven fort."
>player 1: i guess we ask them for food
>dm: "the dwarves run out of the gates with full armor and spears at the ready and escort you inside, and they are attempting to put you in chains"
>everybody isnt phased, cant really do anything against 30 dwarves all heavily armed
>dm "the dwarves escort you to the yard and put you all in a pillory"
>me: "sooo why are we being arrested
>dm: "all 30 of the dwarves drop their pants and begin to rape you." you all take 3d6 dmg
we were all stunned one of the girls in the group instantly left and called him a "fucking creep" the other girl left as well saying "your a shit dm and im telling the discord server admin" and then left. me and the other player were just saying wtf and just left.
1/10 way of being introduced into dnd it gets a 1 because it made me want to find a better game and i found one on roll20 so im happy now
Your story just kept going...
Quit that group, the players, DM, system/how the groups reads the system, the setting and everything just sucks ultra cocks.
Leave it, find a better group. Dead cats would be better.
