Okay a little bit of context here, it is a long tradition in our D&D group to give newcomers one “Wish of the Gods” that allows them to alter one thing about the entire for each person. One time a player skipped a sea serpant battle by using his “Wish of the Gods”. But that is not important this is. By the way this was a homebrew campaign and the final boss battle. Everything had been built up to this.

DM: A head of you stands the Minotaur Warlock, Grawn. He signals you are allowed to go first.

OOC Paladin: WAIT! I want to use my wish!

OOC DM: What wish?

OOC Paladin: My “Wish of the Gods”.

DM: No, you used it and you don’t have another.

OOC Paladin: No I didn’t! Check the sheet.

DM: Okay. I just did and Paladin had not used her wish yet. So go a head.

IC Paladin: GODS HEAR MY PLEA AND GRANT MY WISH! I WISH GRAWN AND I WERE BEST FRIENDS AND ALL HE HAD DONE WAS TO FIND ME AGAIN!

DM: No. No. Noninonononooooooo!!!!
(At this point the DM had thrown stuff around) Okay. Grawn looks closely at the Paladin opposing him. She looked like his friend he had lost years ago. In fact it was her! He was so happy he stopped being evil and went made a living picking fucking daisies! THERE! ARE YOU HAPPY PALADIN!? I HAF SPENT MONTHS ANTICIPATING THIS!!!

Needless to say a new rule was made so nobody could so that again.
