Help! I Need Some Good RPG Clichés!
Hey folks...
One of the sources of humor in Frayed Knights is some good natured ribbing of old-school RPG conventions, classic situations, and clichés. As an example, while the pus-golem joke is pretty much stand-alone, it's also a little bit of a joke about 3rd edition D&D game books... every monster book seems to need to add some constructs, so they all include new golems made out of every substance imaginable.
So I'm looking for a few good jokes.
Rather, some silly elements from computer and "PnP" role-playing games to poke fun at. The weirdness in games that you just learned to ignore. Like... well, like this list here:

Do you have any others? If so, please post 'em. And then I'll see if the Frayed Knights can be made available for commentary...
Gripe about favorite clichés, conventions, and weirdness here!
Thanks in advance, everyone!
