Clearly math is satanic

And it doesn't even add up to the number of the beast!

Improv and math, gramma.

She may buy into hype but still thinks for herself

Could you imagine doing 666 damage in one turn? I’d be riding that high for weeks.

Perception check passed, grandma

D&D players aren't satanists. They're much worse. They're math addicts.

IMO, math is the work of the devil...

And then, In nomine satanis/Magna Veritasuse a D666

Good point, actually. Seems like these days, a lot of people wouldn't change their opinion after seeing what this grandma saw.

Speaking as a Satanist studying computational fluid dynamics...

Need a DM?

I guess it’s like saying gambling is just math. You should sit in on her next bingo session or trip to the Indian casino. except you’re not winning money.

A friend calls it "narrative gambling", because eventually we're all throwing dice and hoping it doesn't "ruin" us.

Exactly why I dislike D&D, it's more about combat and math. I prefer systems that are less math heavy and more narrative/roleplay focused.

Oh absolutely.

If god and religion demand faith over evidence, then clearly math and science, both of which derive from logic, must be the antithesis of god.

They're using Arabic numerals! It's obviously all a devilish ploy to subvert our pure Christian souls!

You should check out GURPS. Its a simpler system with universal campaigns (modern, fantasy, mech, dimension hopping, steampunk). The system is super easy. You start with 100 points to make your character. You can spend them on stats, skills, spells, and perks. You can even gain more points by taking quirks.

You roll 3d6 for everything. Your goal is to get under your skill number. Fireball of 13 needs to roll under 13. If its raining or something, your GM can choose to put a -4 on that. So now you need to roll under 9. Just simple addition and subtraction, but it works really well.

Weeks? More like decades.

These days, some people wouldn't even attempt to see the game with their own eyes and completely makes up their mind based on one FB post.
