My DM perma-killed my character in the first session.

We were playing our first session with Curse of Strahd. Strahd shows up and lets us know the lay of the land. Right when he turned to leave, my cocky human rogue Johnny Handsome threw a dagger at his back just to taunt him. Well, it fucking worked. Strahd teleported and decapitated him in one go.

Our cleric tried to heal me, but we were all level 1. There was nothing we could do. Johnny was dead. Everyone was shocked.

After Strahd left, my DM said there was laughter in the forest around us. It was a war forged jester with the soul of a serial killer: Jester #4. My actual character.

My DM and I had planned Johnny's death from the start. We told none of the other 5 players until after it happened, and they loved it. An amazing start to the session and all my DM's idea. I highly recommend going for this in your own games.

After 20 Sessions, My PC's Still Use Their "Magical" Crowbar

Early on in my campaign, my players found an area of concentrated druidic magic. They found out that when you placed items next to it, they'd become imbued with some power and become magical items. Well one of my PC's had a crowbar..

And I gave them it back as the, "Magical Crowbar of Heavy Lifting", and it allows you to use you to have advantage on your strength throws while using it. Yep. They do not know what a crowbar actually does, and I get a chuckle everytime they ask for or use the crowbar.

• Had someone call me out for proxies

Recently moved into a new area and joined up with the magic group in town, watched a few games to get a rough idea on power level. Sit down to a pod and am very open about the fact the deck I was using (cleric tribal) was 100% proxies. Everyone agrees it's fine and so we roll into the game everything is fine until like turn 6 when I drop a [[Smothering tithe]]. One of the players well call Dave, said "oh I didn't know you where proxying this kind of stuff".

I asked what he meant and in his opinion smothering tithe is to powerful for community out here and then suddenly everything I play is an issue.

Finish the game up and Dave ending up winning by a landslide made the comment "can't even keep up with proxies". Told him I'll play one of my decks with real cards if he wants but warned him it's pretty much a Cedh deck.

I proceed to walk through the pod in 4 turns. To which I got a "you got a lucky draw" Walk through them again at which point he got up and went to another pod and I went back to playing my proxied clerics.

Then heard him talking shit behind me about how I'm a pub stomper and not fun to play against.

Edit: I proxy decks that are lower power because I'll get bored of them in a few months and don't want to throw hundreds of dollars at something that I'll move on from.
