Cass: [as Silence and Luster are being taken by a Death Demon] Why don't I get a save?
Lodge: It's a Death Demon. It's fear aura is too strong. You *can't* roll a successful save.
Cass: Incorrect.
Lodge: What's your willpower save?
Cass: Plue nine.
Lodge: The DC to beat his aura is 32. You would need to role a 23, on a twenty-sided die in order to succeed. Now, I don't have a math degree. But that's impossible.
Cass: [holds up his d20] A natural twenty is an automatic success no matter the circumstances.
Lodge: You still have only a five percent chance of rolling that twenty.
Cass: Can I make the roll? I mean it's in the rules. Or is it okay if we play by the rules?
[Cass rolls his d20 and it lands on a one: automatic failure]
Lodge: Ooooooohhh! Oh, fumble! That means you're *completely* compelled and *I* get to control your character until you snap out of it!
[Cass angrily gives Lodge his character sheet]
Lodge: Since we're playing by the rules, I know you don't mind.
Cass: Oh, shut up, Kevin.
