So, anons, what kind of shit did your former/current DMs tried to pull? Any sort of confusing, spergy, creepy or cringey shit allowed.
Mine story:
>DM promises political campaign in a developed fantasy world, basically War of Roses with magic
>Sounds fun
>Start reading lore, pumped
>Notice there are, like, 6 elven kingdoms
>Ask DM if having six elven races is really necessary
>"uhm, ACKCHUALLY they are all one elven race, just six different kingdoms"
>mfw
>try to explain to him this makes no fucking sense, he's adamant it does
>fuck it, fine, i'm gonna be playing dwarf regardless
>Go over dwarven lore
>It's a balkanized clusterfuck
>what the fuck
>DM explains it's a succession dispute gone awry
>Now instead of having a certain race to play as i have to slog through dwarven clan relations
>Tell DM it's easier to make every clan a different dwarven sub-race
>He gets upset for some reason
Not sure if i should go back, but probably will, just to see how terrible it will get with no clear distinction within races.
Just think OP, instead of spending the time creating this post, you could have tried finding an actual group to play with.

>Meet some wizard in the middle of a dungeon
>Has a whole fuckload of artifacts and magic weapons aropund for some reason
>No, he's not going to let you have them
>No, you can't steal them
>Fighting him would be a "bad idea" because of course he's better than us in every way
>Literally there just to be a cocktease
Fuck you Jerry. I know you're reading this.

OP You seem angry. How do different elven kingdoms for the same race not make sense? There would literally be dozens of ways to justify and explain this.

That's a pretty standard happening in any standard medieval-fantasy simulator RPG.

OP is attempting humor derived from the trope of "every demihuman race has exactly one kingdom".

That completely went over my head then. Thanks!
