Fun fact, they already do! Even more estrogen in you is locally converted (aromatized) from testosterone.

As for why is it easier to use external estrogen sources rather than make your body produced more of it, I have no idea. Biology makes no sense ๐Ÿ™ƒ

Perpetual mana machine? Magical power MLM? Cultist cooperative?

either way I'm in

I love collective storytelling elements as a gm, hate them as a player though -- I wanna relax, pretend to be a person and explore the world, not think about what makes a better story.

Blades in the dark which has a similar thing (I think) is fun but not in a usual carefree manner.

Ironsworn in gm-less mode is an extreme version of that

Im not really asking from a power-dynamics standpoint, more as a narrative tool. As a gm I change the world to make what I see as a better story (no cheating necessary I'm literally the universe).

Like, if the players do an ambush of BBE and (according to the rules) one-shot 'em, he'd have a shielding amulet leaving him heavily maimed but alive. Not cause how dare you kill my beautiful npc, it's just kinda anticlimactic otherwise. (Unless the ambush was a huge challenge in itself. Then we're good, murder away)

But maybe dnd crowd agrees that stat blocks are implicit part of the game and changing them is cheating idk

I haven't played much dnd, do people expect stat blocks to be fixed? Like, is meta knowledge such a part of the game that its a dick move for gm to change it?

Person on the left is calculating every move and winning battles so the other one can be a careless goober (also they're dating)

Transgender scientist Friedrich Nietzsche invented a time machine and went back to 19th century to kill god. And I love it for him.
