Hi friends! I recently came across an interesting topic in D&D that I wanted to share with you all: creative use of items. For example, a rope can become not only a tool, but also a trap or a weapon. In one of the games I played, a mage dissolved a grate with acid instead of attacking. Have you ever had any unexpected situations with items? I'd love to hear about them!

I love White Wolf games for this reason. Many other reasons too but this is a fun one. Like playing VTM, it's super easy to get caught up in all the pseudo-Victorian drama of the vampires and then suddenly panic when the vamp hunter eschews his wooden stakes and garlic and instead shows up with a flamethrower. It's modern times out here baby. Like shit, I just spent two hours walking across town because I forgot our setting is set in fucking 1998 and I can just call a taxi.
