Depending on my mood, if a GM is actively trying to avoid using certain words, I will either A) find ways to insert said words into a conversation, or B) Find ways to make new 'safe' words 'unsafe'.

Naturally this requires a group used to mocking and joking with each other. Otherwise, much social awkwardness ensues.

I have to avoid saying "Night falls, and.." because one of my players will inevitably counter with "I get out of the way."

and hawk, i am making this

Not to be rude, but when you come to a board claiming to be a "noob" looking for advice, and then blatantly ignore the advice of the people you're asking, it doesn't help your position much.

I'll add my voice to the don't do it crowd though. It will be VERY unbalanced, and will put anyone playing the race at a serious disadvantage. +2 +2 -4 would be a much better option.

I remember running a horror-themed adventure once for some newer players where they were exploring an abandoned town. I'd randomly have them roll some perception checks, roll some dice behind the screen, and then say they didn't see anything. The one time there actually were a few shadow demons, they didn't see them =P

I'm kind of a jerk...
