        That's an idea for 2017.

            We have at least two DnD GameMasters - @scottalanmiller and @JaredBusch

            However, I'm sure @JaredBusch would be just happy to send a (insert Level 7 monster name here) that will take out half the campaign.

              This could be combined with IT Finance or as a compliment to IT finance. The role-playing aspect could be very powerful. Especially if we had some real world examples from the community.

                (insert fanfare): Virtualization Hardware Refresh Approved!

                You've reached level 2. The gods are certainly smiling on you. Your strength increased by one, your stamina increased by 3, your charisma increased by 3, your wisdom increases by 2.

                You have 1048576 XP required to reach level 3.

                  We could role a D20 to determine the manager's reaction to your presentation based on your charisma score.

                    Where a roll of 20 he just picks you up and throws you out of his office?

                      Or a roll of 1.

                        A low roll would be a good reaction IMO.

                        Manager rolls a D20, gets 1, "You don't get yelled, idea accepted"

                          You've never played DnD I'm guessing?

                            @coliver I have, but I'm also assuming the manager has to play. 🙂

                              Nah, in DnD a roll of 20 is a critical success, which almost always succeeds, whereas a roll of 1 is a critical failure and always fails.

                                As the manager would be an NPC of sorts where high rolls he gets to destroy you.

                                  But if it is based on your charisma score you would roll the die and add you charisma... wow. You know what nevermind I just realized I'm arguing DnD on a public forum.

                                      This made me giggle, but yeah, you're right, although if the roll was a mid roll, the DM would probably roll as the NPC manager to see if you were effective.

                                        This would be a contested roll, your CHA vs his WIS

                                          Also great for people new to role playing as an added bonus.
