> Any stories about letting players get away with something impressive at a cost?
Transcript:
> Discord: Might as well go for the full set while I'm here, right? Gotta collect 'em all!
> DM: So you're going to try pulling all the Elements?
> Discord GM: As long as it remains an effective way to keep their pony bearers off-guard, certainly!
> Twilight Sparkle: Okay, no. This nonsense has got to stop. Can I roll Arcana to protect us all from this effect?
> DM: Yes, though doing so may compromise the illusory glamour you're holding up.
> Discord GM: Pardon?
> Twilight Sparkle: Acceptable! <roll>
> SFX: (FLASH!) (BWOM)
> DM: Discord, for just a moment, you notice Twilight's body flickering.
> Discord GM: … Ohhh-hohoho! Is that so?
