You know you're in trouble when you get to the table and your character is a special snowflake, but your GM has a shirt that says, "you are not a special snowflake!"

My group just played 6-3, The Technic Siege and we ran into this dilemma. More accurately my friend and i fretted over this more than the GM thought we should.

After a certain fight...:
We had a very fun game that got real silly. after the fight in the warehouse we had captured the mage and the alchemist (Ezren's fireball nearly one shotted the girl). Both were stable but unconscious. the party decided to wake up the mage girl for interrogation. They left the alchemist to us. My friend was a neutral inquisitor and I was lvl 7 pregen Ezren. what we decided was that we had to kill him in a way that would cover our tracks. so, with Ezren's +15 Linguistics skill i wrote a suicide note, while my friend set up a rope and a noose. we healed him back to consciousness to cover up the gashing wounds, then we shoved him off the crates and let him hang. All of this was done very quietly in the background while our LG Cleric made a bargain with the mage who lived.

One last thing. our suicide note essentially said "I am taking my own life out of shame for my failure to fight off the Aspis Consortium. they stole everything and are also after the book." It was a running joke throughout our game. we kept trying to convince people we were apart of the AC and failed miserably. but we all kept it up anyway. to the point of yelling, "for the Aspis Consortium!" as our battle cry.

tl;dr
My friend and I hung a near dead prisoner from the ceiling, and I (as Ezren) wrote a very clever suicide note. All this was done stealthily while the LG Cleric's back was turned.

...halfway through the scenario you realize that the PC that your PC was hitting on is the GM's wife's character. No matter how you look at it, its weird.

I am not allowed to have the rogue go first down the dungeon corridor. even if his player is new and needs to learn things the hard way.

I am not allowed to have an AC of 16 as the front line fighter. even if parade armor fits my characters back story.

I am not allowed to kill Uori for being a jerk. Even if he is mad because i didnt give him that stupid cloak.

I am not allowed to hide loot from my allies.

i am not allowed to use a glaive as a diplomatic tool.

I am no longer allowed to play an intoxicated alchemist who mixes all his drinks with alcohol.

In a home game i made an NPC dwarf brewer named Alefell who did this. Hard cider was CLW, Stout was remove disease, etc. The 10 con Gnome got drunk trying to heal himself.

Your OCD min/maxer friend is still mad at you for playing a fighter with a positive Cha score.
OMG that is so annoying, My gunslinger has a +1 in INT. Why? So I couldd speak Elvish for her background. I dont care if I didnt dumb any stats. She is well rounded in general and you guys where happy when I talked the 7 thugs from killing us out of it.

Right?? I'm also going to put points into my wizard's cha, and give him the trait for diplomacy. I am far too gregarious of a person to dump that stat.

Your fighter with 12 Cha is forced to play the "face" because the person playing the summoner wont ever talk.

Your OCD min/maxer friend is still mad at you for playing a fighter with a positive Cha score.

Why does everyone in the west dance while they fight?!

A real man just charges on through with the strength of a raging fire!

False.

Lets get down to business. Dervishes are middle eastern. By my understanding they are a kind of Muslim mystic. Similar to the charismatic or Pentecostal Christian. The whirling dance is a form of worship to the Sufi Dervishes.(says the theology major, with the force of a great typhoon!).

Port Godless, exact same scene. I should mention that this game happened in a private residence...

** spoiler omitted **

After the potential enemy encounter had walked off, the NPC turns to the cavalier and says "that was some fast talking, my friend. I'm impressed." The cavalier looks back at him (and the cavalier's player looks at our table) and says with a completely straight face: "Well, the more you know a man the easier it is to be gay with him."

You sir, made me laugh.

EDIT
Actually, everything with Kyras and Liran is hi-larious. They need their own chronicle.
