| You mean I shouldn't be sipping from strange bottles?
Bah! That's crazy talk. I always leap from building to building on my way across town, dive off cliffs into the shallow waters below. Track animals through the woods (actually I've had to do that with my dog before), and let's not forget defending my home from hordes of orcs. Of course most of that was after I sampled a strange bottle to see if it was some kind of potion.[:P] | |

I thought healing was blue ... the soapy water dumbo drank was pink ... which could explain a lot [)] | | | |

| I think in real life I would have a hard time killing anybody for any reason. My PCs frequently kill people just because the DM put them in the wrong spot at the wrong time [:D]
edit [but i guess that falls under the ethical moral question which you said you didn't want. sorry i didn't read if that carefully the first time]
how about sleeping in the woods for weeks at a time | |

Both good points.
The killing one is especially true (I'm a very non-violent person), however I have to wonder some times. Basically, the only intelligent race on the earth is humans (yes yes, dolphins, etc but let's leave them be for a moment). I have to wonder how different things would be if there was an actual malevolent race of furry guys bent on demon summoning 24/7. Perhaps I'd be a little more inclined towards violence than I am now.

| I used to be amused that I wouldn't kill a mosquito if it landed on me and bit me, but in D&D I often play highly skilled fighters, "killing machines" if you will.
Another thing my charcaters do, travel everywhere (even across nation) by foot. | |

| I played a monk in a previous campaign, a grappler, and I have to tell you, that in real life, I'd think long and hard before I went up and bearhugged some of the stuff that my monk did.
Attempting to pin a filthy, diseased, rotting corpses that happen to be animated and evil? Are you kidding me, just going to funerals creeps me out.
Punching an ooze? I get scared when I have to take the hair out of the drain.
Grappling the ferocious, but ever-unwashed Gnoll Berserker. Um, I won't even go near a stray dog that's in the water, much less a flee-ridden mangey mut that's covered in dirt.
Heh.

| I'm a nice guy, but I've played at least one probably-too-zealous-bodyguard.
Yeah, you know I like you guys. What? Lich is casting a spell at the cleric? I jump in front and take it!
Champion of Talos is aiming his bow at our mage? Egads! Knock that mage out of the way and take the arrow!
But then, one of my favorite PCs ... Hugh. Imagine if you will that this was back in the 1st and 2nd edition days where you couldn't safely mix potions at the same time. Hugh was an Elf Thief/Magic User (with a dex of 9 or something stupid like that), mostly so he could swipe potions from the party. And Hugh, well, he was a passable supporting spellcaster (more utility than firepower), but often found that he needed chemical assistance. Hugh would (at least once per session) drink a potion and chase it with another potion.
Luckily Hugh had a nice cast of supporting clerics who could put him back together again when / if he blew up, etc. He did end up with some nice permanent abilities (and one or two very ... annoying ... ones).
I don't think I'm that crazy or stupid. | |

| Heh, in game, I would probably ignore my alignment and go wreak some royal havoc at my previous place of employment. I know there'd be a few people on the "terminate with EXTREME prejudice" list because they truly deserve it. But, I digress... maybe.... [}:)]
Real Life? I have to live with dreams of "drawing and quartering" them. I'm not a destructive person (except against inanimate objects. They annoy me to the point of, "HULK SMASH!"). [xx(] | |

Well, we opened it and it kind of smelled like paint thinner. But no, we didn't sample it... :) Later on we thought about some of the things mentioned in this thread as well - taking hits for other characters, and, most notably, jumping off cliffs since the damage wouldn't kill you... (maximum falling damage! :) ) | |

Or hold person on the snotty person who asks for vegetarian when its clear the waitstaff are up to their ears,
"go get chicken"
"eat chicken"
"eat more chicken"
Then give them a Gaes to get the "vegetarian" alignment back, involving the serving of every snotty vegetarian in the universe...see if they still want their old alignment back
Sorry, I actually have nothing against vegetarians, I just have something against the ones who think that that gives them the right to inconvience about a half-dozen overworked people over a hunk of deceased bird in a sandwich. | |

| He he, I'd put it in the perspective of... "Oh look a dark, scary looking cave. Creepy sounds and oh look! Is that dried blood? Sure we're all mediocre skilled whatnots, who cares! Let's go exploring!"
Give me a trained spelunker, a well armed squad of Marines, some jumbo Hollywood spotlights and a fifth of rum and sure I'll go :) | |
You see! There ARE others out there just like me. What? Why are laughing? | |

When we play we often start goofing around, wisecracking and getting off track, until someone reminds us that we ought to be playing, by saying "let's get back to reality"... [:D] | |

| The problem with me for this question is I have to think "Okay, which PC"...if it was Barrelbreak (my battlerager (well, as close as you were allowed in LC)) and his skunks, he would be chopping away singing "I met a kobold one day, and then I killed him and his sisters and his cousins and his aunts and his....(etc, etc, etc)" while my half-drow priestess of Denier/Monk/Loremaster would probably adopt them and raise them as priests and teach them to read and write. Then we have Lord Harvinder Rasquell Grimm who would probably let his loiness have dinner. And I could go on and on and on...
