Had to roll a dexterity save-- natural 20 +7 acrobatics check WITH disadvantage (rolled double 20s... wtf are the chances of that, 1/400?) Swung up onto his neck in a spiral motion, grabbed him by the horns, and toppled him over. The dwarf in our game (also drunk) shouted "THAT STILL ONLY COUNTS AS ONE!"

Seabutcher 07/30/17 7:49:09 PM #12:	My heavily min-maxed half-Orc half-Horse all-Barbarian has a lot of wacky antics himself. Like the time I ate a whole bunch of magical pies made from children. Why would I care if I eat human meat? I'm not human. Anyway, the whole thing ended up with my character spending a night on some kind of insane LSD trip that allowed him to fully comprehend the nature of the universe, and woke up with a temporary bonus to INT (something along the lines of +10) and started speaking like an upper-class English gentleman for a while instead of just screaming and grunting. Staying in character and sticking to the "chaotic neutral is my entire personality" angle has so far forced me to at some point injure every other member of the party (one of which I damn near murdered in a drunken rage because I couldn't see through her disguise). --- I am a certified Magic: The Gathering judge.
