My players like imagining insane cruelty ahead of them. I say three words, then sit there looking like this for five minutes as I listen to them write their own doom.

I usually don't do the terrible things they imagine.

sometimes i just roll dice randomly :)

for fun :)

i always make that face when i do

DM Ron when the players try to argue with his interpretation of the rules:
