Fighter: So uhhhhh... you gotta pretty neat weapon there.
Artificer: Thanks, designed "Ol Buzzy" myself!
Fighter: Mind if I give her a go?
Artificer: Sure, but you need any pointers?
Fighter: Naaaaaw, I can figure it out.
Artificer: *To the DM* CAN he figure it out?
DM: *To fighter* ...roll me a wisdom check.
Fighter: *Nat 1*
DM, Artificer, and Fighter in unison: Hoo boy.
[A picture of a man starting a chainsaw while the blade is placed between his legs, resting on his crotch.]
This is still pretty dumb, but as long as the chainsaw’s clutch isn’t somehow stuck engaged, then just starting the saw won’t spin the blades
Seems kinda like pointing an "unloaded" gun at yourself.
For the purposes of safety, always assume the gun is loaded...and always assume a chains will be engaged.
"As long as the safety is off it isn't really dangerous to give your kid a gun" 8 times out of 10 this will turn out fine, 1 times out of 10 you get a hole in your house, and 1 times out of 10 someone gets shot 🤷♂️
