Quick Request of Aid.
I have a City where there is two sectors, one which is know as the Imperial Quarter. Where all the Nobles and Wealthy folk live, and the Old Quarter. Artisans, the Poor and so forth.
There is a Bridge that connects the two Quarters over a River. I was wanting to make it so that the Imperial Quarter sometimes puts bans on things entering that part of the city. My first introduction had only really a D4 like table of it.
1- Wealth Standard
2- Weapons
3- Animals
4- Nothing

Kinda boring. I felt that they are a little more eccentric then that and was aiming at at least 20 different things that they could ban from the Quarter.
Some I have an idea about are, Colour of clothing, Music, Race, Events, Attitudes

 Anyone got any ideas.

Hairstyles! Small change! People with tattoos! Magicians or certain types of mage. Certain kinds of food. Goods made in another country. Poor people. Unmarried women. Married women.

Left shoes, helmets and hats, glasses, booze, wood, bronze...

[Rolan7]

Speckled eggs, blue ribbons but not green, and most importantly touching love stories (Fallen London reference).

Wigs, and any other element of a disguise (as in, literally no makeup.  Or quality clothes).
Amethyst.  Diamonds with too many facets, IE not sharp enough.
Wine older than a certain vintage.
Newspapers/pamphlets directed at the wealthy.  Things the Old Quarter shouldn't be reading.
slade

cats and parrots are fined, dogs are fine.

Any books with a greater than average usage of the letter "T".

[SOLDIER First]

Poor people!

[highmax28]

Having certain colors of a rival house/city on?

Looking at bridge guards the wrong way. That's suspicious behavior, possibly even the mark of cultists.

EDIT: Follow up, anyone who doesn't worship the quarters gods as their patron diety. Religious tests preferably in the form of a riddle.

[Egan_BW]

Anyone with an odd number of eyelash hairs.

[scriver]

Bad weather! Smelly spell ingredients! Harsh tones! Tragic backstories! Severed left feet! Pork chops! Unsanctified water! Godly idols of the wrong gods! Several kinds of geese in the same flock! Any animal used as mounts smaller than Large size! Lanterns without blue coloured glass! Pornographic wood carvings! Three-wheeled carriages! UNWASHED MASSES!

Starting to wonder if I should even be playing tabletop games. Doubt I'd be able to find a new group; these guys are pretty much my only friends. But Hell, are these characters ever obnoxious.

One's some third-party Samurai that seems stupidly powerful. And refuses to talk intelligibly with us. Has some English to Japanese speech app on his phone, and we have no idea what's going on. The app's high-pitched speech is annoying though.

Another is being a rampaging, obnoxious Orc. Same sort I've complained about in this thread months ago. Except when the character miraculously becomes some sort of high-class aristocratic supergenius.

The player got into an argument with me and another player because we wouldn't play characters he made for us to play. Whose roles were pretty much just to sit there and worship the Orc.

A few players were making some extreme sexual comments towards the only girl in the group.

I've got a headache from all the screaming at the table today.

If you don't mind play-by-post and non-DnD, I have a free slot

Seriously though, if your group is that bad it may be time to look elsewhere.

EDIT: If there are any reasonable players maybe you could split off and do your own thing? Surely you aren't the only unhappy player?

[Egan_BW]

Screw those guys, just go down to the FG&RP board and play with uuuuusssssssss.

[Sirus]

At this point...yeah, I'm thinking playing online might be your best bet. Sounds like your real-life group(s?) are just way too toxic to be enjoyable.

[scriver]

Was the screaming because you called out the gm on the changes he claimed was as written?
