Aldry just wanted to enjoy a nice snooze when those bothersome adventurers came barging into her cave at an ungodly hour, screaming something about rescuing a princess. What's a dragon supposed to do under circumstances like that?
(A story inspired by the frustrations of being a Dungeon Master for far too long...)
Part 1 of the When You Dragon series.

*Nods* That's how I feel most nights I run a game.

very metta, they forgot two things: don't waist your action speaking unless you feel like you could succeed in persuasion or intimidation and the rule of cool is always in effect so the DM can do what they want. If the DM said "Role Initiative" after the first bite but the players kept arguing about turns I could see the DM counting that as their turn and giving the dragon another turn.

Well as a DM myself I always count talking as a free action. (Unless it just goes on WAY too long.) But I wasn't really trying to give an accurate depiction of a D&D game. It was more so just me writing something silly to vent my frustrations.

I understand that you were just going for something silly and that talking is normally a free action I was venting frustration I have not even as a DM but as a player when I've had my action planned but have to wait for other players that have spent minutes talking to the DM and another player's trying to decide on the most optimal move or arguing rules and I just need them to take there go so I can get to mine.

Dunno what they're complaining about re: dragon attacking first. What do they think initiative rolls are for?
