Do I need to pass a WILL test to cut my own member or was

Of course it will take strength of will from your character to do such a thing so of course the DM is not pulling your leg. Many people like to avoid dice rolling in games since they feel it disrupt the flow of role-playing though, but that's more of a matter of how you decide to play the game then relating to the specific situation you're in. But the general rule is that it's up to the DM since that is the person doing almost all of the work setting up the game.

No, he's pulling your arm.

Should be Dexterity check really, manipulation with diminutive object is Dexterity thing.

>>53064770
Nope. Just anaesthetic and a solid reason. Saving throws are used to protect you against outside influences, not your own bad decision-making.

Should be CON check to see if you can endure a barely anesthetized amputation, bleeding out or passing out or going into shock are far more important having the will to cut your own arm because you may have the will but doesnt mean you are successful at the task, just means you are willing to do it.

The problem with making it a Will test is that mages get high will and fighters don't, and between those two, who's more likely to balk at the prospect of physical injury?

This is assuming the game is D&D, and not a system like many others where a character's willpower stat is based on whether they chose to strengthen it.

The pussy in the plate armour, that's who.

this

A wizard plays the long game, he knows that the pain will be fleeting and he can create some sort of unguent to grow his arm back later

depends on the setting
