This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Quote from: Christopher Brady;1031369That's also a question I ask.  Because if you're caught and you have a weapon?  You're killed on sight, usually, because they assume you're intent is murder.  If you don't, and are caught, they carry you off to prison, because all you planned is theft.

Depends on the time and place.  In England in the Middle Ages there was a special name for breaking into somebody's house to rob.  Don't remember it off the top of my head.  Weapon or no, you'll be hanged.
You should go to GaryCon.  Period.

The rules can\'t cure stupid, and the rules can\'t cure asshole.

Yes, you would be, but here's the thing.  Caught with a knife, they'd kill you on the spot.  Without a weapon, they'd wait till morning at the very least, which means a chance to escape.

I use the downtime activities for 5e released in Xanathar's and Unearthed Arcana, and made some of my own.

To encourage using it I also made Long Rests take a week, so that way they overlap.
Battle doesn\'t need a purpose; the battle is its own purpose. You don\'t ask why a plague spreads or a field burns. Don\'t ask why I fight.

There was an Unearthed Arcana article on this?  I missed that.
