Always bothered me. Means that anyone who can't improv well is locked to low char characters.

Not with that attitude. When I dm id accept some uhm-ing, erm-ing fumbling players as buttery smooth talkers if they have the rolls.

So...you go to bed with them if they roll a 20? Irl?

Well, it was a joke...imagine ducking someone who said something cringe, just because they rolled a 20.

I guess who am I to say no?

I mean, my partner of 15 years started as a fling who accidentally lit himself on fire trying to do a party trick before I decided to sleep with him.

Fix what? He's always been great, haha.

The burns, did you fix the burns?

They weren't too bad, and they were on his other hand, so they didn't even get in the way later that night

Well playing dnd is a good low stakes way to improve.

Unless you are uncomfortable with the situation and it ruins the game for you, sure.

If roleplaying ruins the game for you, maybe a roleplaying game is not for you

There’s a major difference between “roll at least a 16 and you’ll have seduced the guard” and “seduce me to seduce the guard.”

Different people are comfortable with different things. If you’re fine seducing your DM, cool. But I certainly wouldn’t be.

Maybe charisma builds just aren't for you.
