| JaiaDrottsingr08-26-06, 08:13 PM | 1. Constantly, the Half-Orc Barbarian saying to the barmaids, " where's the little girl's room, I'd like to watch you go." 2. Occasionally, the Half-Elf Bard w/ brain transferred to a Dire Woodpecker's body, singing in an impesonation of Eartha Kitt's voice, "If only, if only the woodpecker cries, the bark on the tree was as soft as the skies! While the wolf waits below, hungry and lonely, it cries to the moon, if only, if only." 3. Once. The Female druid saying, "You always say, there's a fork in the road. Why is it never a spoon?" 4. Once. The CE Human Monk saying, " Ohyeah. Before you let me join this Celebration or gathering or eternal birthday of yours, I should let you know, I mean since you're all good guys. I'm Evil." Ach-em... :ahem: |
| Bladesong08-28-06, 02:36 PM | 5 - I kept rebuilding my character in-game. That was pretty annoying, I think. However, I did enjoy the exasperated expression of the DM as I asked him to allow me to rebuild my character again. |
| Zeorth08-28-06, 04:10 PM | 6) Always facing incredible odds, and always dieing but never caring. 7) Drawing cheese-monkeys on character sheets (Don't Ask!) |
| Thinblade08-28-06, 04:23 PM | 8. Blowing up Lantan (manipulating half the Twisted Rune, a couple dozen Red Wizards, a Manshoon clone, and maybe twenty other wizards of power into a spell-battle-royale on the side of a dormant volcano might not have been the best idea...) |
| Kamekazou08-28-06, 06:15 PM | 9- Spilling salsa to imitate the molten lava heading toward his character. |
| Khaelieth08-28-06, 06:20 PM | 10. Not so stupid, more funny. Turn the party's dwarf's beard pink. Gnome in serious trouble. 11. Annoy wizards. Ends with silly, hairless barbarians. 12. Put on 3 cloaks of resistance. Class. 13. Being a dwarf. Silly blighters. |
| BrianCritchley08-28-06, 07:13 PM | 14: this isn't forgotten realms or even d&d but once disgusing yourself as supply deliverers to sneak into a secrect top security prison complex and then immediatly asking the guard for a run down on the security measures in place eneugh to provoke suspicion thus turning a sneaking avoiding conflict situation into a no holds barred conflcit with the stations entire defences :) |
| Grocery_Bag08-28-06, 10:26 PM | 15. My Lizardfolk Barbarian ate the halfling mayor of a town and got poisoned. That was pretty idiotic, I should have had one of the surviving townsfolk eat some first, but greed for slaves got the better of me. |
| Teh_username08-29-06, 12:07 AM | 15. My Lizardfolk Barbarian ate the halfling mayor of a town and got poisoned. That was pretty idiotic, I should have had one of the surviving townsfolk eat some first, but greed for slaves got the better of me. I like your style. Have you ever thought about working for the church of Selvetarm? (My vote goes to "inciting a riot by going on a 'decapitate-dead-peasants' spree in the middle of a village, with the justification that 'they might turn into zombies!'". Silly Kara-Turan émigré.) |
| kiesloth08-29-06, 10:36 AM | In a game i hosted in sea envinronment with 4 players: -the human barbarian lost his left foot by a shark, got blinded and had erotic activities with a gynospinx that lead to her death by rage... -the elf mage crashed his right arm and ended up trapped in a labyrinth full of shiit who eventually led in Skullport -the human rogue female, died in a battle with sahuagin and got ressurected later on inside a crumbling,from an earthquake, temple. She survived a little bit more to die at last from her own poisson arrows. -the gnome bard got away with it all. Amateur... |
| Gothdom08-30-06, 01:02 AM | 20- Overlooking a giants band from a ridge with my male elf ranger and a male mage (level 1) which annoyed every player by always being lame, so our fighter and my ranger threw him to his death and into the giants. 21- Dying because I used oil of impact on my blades hoping it would deal more damage... I lost my hands, my left arm and half my head splurting everyone else with my own blood... 22- Having a fighter who's always scared (cause fear cursed helm) and wets himself and the DM saying his armor is rusted at the crotch |
| Fabius Maximus08-30-06, 08:13 AM | Stepping into a very empty inn tended by an obviously insane dwarf wizard and ordering a cup of wine, after your mates all had beer. It's your own fault if you get fried by a fireball. Just don't draw your mates into the fray. |
| Ripe08-30-06, 08:26 AM | Casting an Age Creature spell followed by Fireball on a Red Dragon. |
| BrianCritchley08-30-06, 04:50 PM | ya know some of these stories sound more like idiot GM stories then idiot pc stories |
| Bladesong09-01-06, 10:41 AM | 20- Overlooking a giants band from a ridge with my male elf ranger and a male mage (level 1) which annoyed every player by always being lame, so our fighter and my ranger threw him to his death and into the giants. Just curious, how was he being lame? |
| Shiron Barbaros09-03-06, 01:53 PM | where to start... (i think the next one would be 25) 25. players stealing 5tons of salt for no reason at all. 26. three lvl 7 lizardfolk, roughly cause the destruction of all of waterdeep, they blow up a mountain melting large amounts of gold, then placing that gold in a bag of holding. the wizards from waterdeep come to check it out and try to kill them until they realize that a rather large piece of solid gold was coming their way...they all fail reflex saves and die. they went from level 7 - 46 in the second battle of the game. 27. The mummy was coming ever closer, its undead hands reaching out to grab and break the people before it. Shiron (me) decided to bluff the mummy into thinking he had just died of fear...success ...Nivek also wishing the mummy to believe him dead stabbed himself...success... that was a fun game. we left one guy to face the mummy and he still won. 28. (6 lvl 50 characters) the thief(nivek) was being very irretateing so i locked him away(as a player) in a place that noone else could have possibly gotten out of...he past me a second later sayin "man! demi-planes are hard to carry!..." (his character is like the best thief on the planet) i like players like these as long as im not the dm...which more often than not i seem to be dming when these things happen. |
| xlivid09-04-06, 10:12 AM | 29. We as a party where on a mission to create/summon the evil deity of Myrkul. Some Cleric (Faustus) of Jergal approached basicly telling us that he knew everything about us and our campaign. So we freaked out and didn't trust him.. Friends as we where OC trusted him, IC we tolerated him, but he had to get through a series of tests first since we didn't trust him. So the first test of trust was him walking in front of the party as we enter some evil dungeon. In some hallway gates close behind him and a deadly gas is released, choking the poor sod. FIN character #1. Since that they his PC is frequently in the top 3 ranks of our sessions DeathPools (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deathpool). He returned as a bard later on in that campaign. |
| selunatic239709-04-06, 10:58 PM | 30. While on a cloud castle filled with elven amazons my friends character Aaron the Ranger promptly cast a charm person spell on one of them. When he was caught by the party archmage [we were playing 1st edition ] Aaron the Ranger stood up and pointed his finger at the annoyed Archmage Flash [yeah, I know the names were lame but we were gaming back in the last century, please forgive us. ] and bellowed out "Faerie Fire!" I confirmed he had cast the 1st level druid spell by that name and told Flash...you are glowing violet. Aaron promptly bellowed out "Faerie Fire!" again. Flash just sat there for a second and then in a really bass voice full of attitude stated "Meteor Swarm!" The blast pretty much vaporized poor Aaron and made Flash much appreciated by the Amazons. [Just take your minds out of the gutter...all Flash wanted was a trade agreement involving white pearls used in 1st edition Identify spells (one 100gp pearl per casting) because Flash was a pretty mean pennypincher ] |
| ArnimThayer09-05-06, 12:24 AM | 31. The bard in our party took Perform (Insults), and irritates us in battle to (inspire courage) envoke a blood rage in the characters (standard bardic bonuses). This would be okay, but the player has to verbally role-play every insult uttered as combat inssues. Did I mention that she is a gnome, and does this while being carried in a backpack (like Yoda!) everywhere by the Barbarian character? "Turn around, you idiots! There's another one right behind you! Hey Ranger, can't you hit anything with that bow? My grandma's blind lover could shoot better..." |
| ShadezofDis09-05-06, 12:20 PM | 32. When presented before Tiamat to try and convince her to breath upon an artifact one of my PC's needed destroyed (it had his soul, bad draw on a deck of many things *g*) said PC decided to mouth off to Tiamat. This did have the benifit of having Tiamat use her breath weapons. . . 33. A pretty constant thing I have to deal with as a DM is having the pc's run out of town by angry locals. Either it's killing some city guards or raising undead in allies or burning down half the town, my pc's seem to enjoy leaving just ahead of the posse. 34. One of my own was after defeating a psionic lich (woohoo Darksun) I decided it'd be a great idea to follow one of the party rogues into an unexplored part of the lich's complex. . . 10 hp isn't enough to wander a lich's home, even if they are (at that moment) destroyed. 35. Another one of my own, never, NEVER, go near a 100+ male (nude by the by) gathering who are charmed by a succubus, further, NEVER mouth off to the _____ (oh boy I ran, and ran, and ran, probably the scarriest moment of that characters life. . . and yes, he was a swashbuckler, the irony is thick) |
| r4zor09-06-06, 10:28 AM | 36. LG, Human Monk of Ilmater summoned a riding horse inside a Wizard's Guild in Westgate just to check if the wizard Identified his newly found magic item correctly. 37. LG, Human Paladin 'borrowed' a saddle, removing it from a raven black horse with vicious red eyes. Than walked into a tavern sayin' 'Whose is this?' which got him into a lot of trouble: a Red Wizard Summoned a Wall of Fire right on him. Paladin just appologised and went to his room to have his beauty sleep. 38. Same Paladin as above: 'I cast(!) Aura of Courage on the door'...he never said why... 39. CE, Human Cleric of Cyric always burried himself before goin' to sleep...good thing I persuaded him NEVER to play a cleric again. |
| keldor09-08-06, 10:31 AM | My fighter Gargantuan Ironfist, famed for his immense size and 18 (96) strength gets into a fight on the deck of a small ship in a sea-faring adventure before we had even set out. Being of good alignment, and not wanting to kill anyone, he used his bare knuckles against his foe - a normal human sailor! GI landed a terrific punch on the guy's jaw at which the DM adjudicated that the sailor was hurled backwards some ten feet and over the side of the ship; he then fell some twenty feet onto (and through) a rowing boat tethered to the ship. The hapless chap did not re-surface! Opps!:embarrass In a later adventure, GI found a potion. After much sniffing and suspicious eyeing of the transparent contents the frustrated DM (my bro), who never liked GI since I played him so convincingly as extremely arrogant, convinced me that the potion wasn't poison - so I drank it. It was a potion of longevity; and since GI was twenty-one at the time, he promptly dwindled and shrunk to a small weedy eleven year old buried under a suit of plate mail. The brash, loud-mouthed GI, who seconds before had been a fearless warrior standing 6' 6" and weighing 255 lbs., had to be led, hand held, out of the dungeon to retire from play for two years. |

| VulcanStormwrath09-10-06, 02:17 AM | 1. Epic fighter removes his glove, dips his hand into flux slime while saying "water never hurt anyone". 2. New player chose to play a cannibalistic chaotic evil cleric in a party that included a half celestial paladin of St. Cuthbert.... he lasted until the end of the first combat. |
| keldor09-10-06, 08:27 PM | 2. New player chose to play a cannibalistic chaotic evil cleric in a party that included a half celestial paladin of St. Cuthbert.... he lasted until the end of the first combat. Yes, that was idiotic! What was that Paladin thinking, adventuring with an evil character? |
| JaiaDrottsingr09-12-06, 04:37 PM | 43. Creating a large party campaign with all characters derived from Futurama, Simpsons and Family Guy. No I didn't DM this. |
| Delzounblood09-12-06, 04:49 PM | Telling a psychotic venerable red dragon he has a major inferiority complex! That pretty much ended play that night, it was halfling kebabs all round!!:D |
| Garidas09-12-06, 05:24 PM | 44. One of the players (Evil Cleric) gets the idea to run into a lair filled with garganthuan black dragons and gets killed. Wizards ressurrects him, he runs back in again, after 4 hours of play to rescue the body and res him. 45. One of the players (same cleric) gets the idea to make a campfire on a wooden floor on the second floor of a inn. Run down, kill half of the peoples in the inn and run back up again to the campfire. He was burned alive. 46. Ever heard of a Halfling Knight!!!!, now you have, I made one. |
| Delzounblood09-12-06, 05:29 PM | A Halfling Knight!!!! Now that is idiotic! What was his mount a puppy?? |
| Fabius Maximus09-13-06, 07:46 AM | Now that is idiotic! What was his mount a puppy?? :D There are such animals as riding dogs and war ponies, you know? |
| Rei3249109-13-06, 10:21 PM | 48: Halfling rouge (lvl 3) watches in the shadows as a pit fiend prepares to sacrafice a male drow. DM: Ok, what do you do? Rouge:...I SNEAK ATTACK IT!:D Me:...:OMG! DM: You're not really THAT stupid...right? Rouge: No, really I sneak attack it! DM: Ok, the Pit fiend sees you, and decides to use you as a sacrafice instead. Rouge: :weep: |
| JaiaDrottsingr09-14-06, 05:14 PM | snip The number of people worthy to use the drow avy has gone back to three in my mind. I'm sorry NeaZur, but that's just disgusting. Euuuuuuurgghhh! Ack! AARP! :yuck: |
| Delzounblood09-17-06, 11:56 AM | :D There are such animals as riding dogs and war ponies, you know? Humor is a great universal langauge, except when it's explained.. |
| Karsus the Mad09-17-06, 12:00 PM | 49. A new player asked me if he had to roll dice to see whether he had to relieve himself and what the DC was.....:nonono: |
| Gnar_Almax09-21-06, 02:07 AM | 1. Tack Diggins CG Halfling Rogue.Stole every single doorknob in Dead Snows.... twice. 2. Ventured into Turlags Wood and set a fire. |
| Windeye09-22-06, 10:59 AM | 50. Druid: I search the door for a trap (we didn't have a rogue) DM:Roll... Ok you know that a trap is on the door. Druid:Ok I desable it DM:But you don't have the "desable device" skill.. Trap activates.. Druid: Oh, ****... |
| jackrabbit18709-23-06, 02:18 AM | 51. A Necromancer in our party who regenerates drinks a potion to see what it is. "It can't kill me. I regenerate". Next session we had a Lich Necromancer in our party. DM was too nice on that one =J. 52. DM sends us to the plane of NYC, New Years 2000. The Psionicist dissintegrated the ball in Times Square. Dumb on the part of the DM and the character. |
| JaiaDrottsingr09-23-06, 09:53 AM | Actually, the nuber should be: 56. In the infamous campaign that my players killed the Karsi in, my DMPC worshipped the Karsi, Elisstraee, and Gond at the same time. And he was a human monk. Man, the insane part was when my brother (who loves including Karsus in anything DnD related), who was DM'ing that session, made one of the NPC's say, "Kill, you must, the Karsee-Karsee-Karsi-Karseat. Puppet, am I." Then, he made the NPC cough "Yoda. Yoda." Like he was Gollum. We killed the NPC and broke out of character while in the wilderness. |
| GlimofOldForest09-24-06, 05:06 PM | 53. Accidently made to good of friends with Kork the Gay Orc and lets say that night when he was on watch, he wasnt watchin out for intruders. 54. Has a druid was on watch when i heard a sound, so i jumped into a bush thinkin oh maybe i can get a new animal companion (it was my first time playing) i got into a fight with the wrong end of the skunk and none of my companions came into a 20 foot radious of me the next two times we played. |

| Manshoon1309-24-06, 08:39 PM | 55. Pledging your alligance to bane when you are a follower of Cyric. 56. Causing Elimenster to battle Manshoon, Halaster Blackstaff and Manshoon. Halaster and Manshoon took over shadowdale. 57. Causing the destruction of the underdark. They found the netherese scrolls, and one of the spells was a massive attack spell. Anywho, the Pc's were battling a demon and one of the players used it to cause a huge part of the underdark to callopse. 58. When my Pc's thought to ressurect an anceint banished god long ago killed. He came back and brought about Toril's destrction. |
| Steropes09-25-06, 11:12 AM | 59.Fey'ri Assasine used dimensiondoor to try escaping to underdark. 1 000 feet straith down. He hitted to a hole and quick-mymmyfied him self. |
| brandonnolo09-25-06, 12:05 PM | 60. Walked into a temple of Tiamat, and slaughtered all the acolytes and high priest that were just wandering about (no questions asked!). Then read the high priests journal to find out that they were all priests of Io that had just cleansed the temple of the Tiamat worshipers themselves. So, we just took out a bunch of allies, thinking they were enemies! 61. My cleric just got done saving the party's butt by single-handedly downing both the beholder and the mind flayer band that was attacking us. Then, I proceed the the mind flayer's lair nicely adorned with a bookshelf and a nice tigerskin rug on the floor. Well, I stride right on over to that bookshelf to grab a book. Lo and behold, that stupid rug was a 100 ft. spiked pit trap. ouch. |
| JaiaDrottsingr09-25-06, 07:54 PM | Next Number should be 68! |
| Imzyr09-27-06, 08:25 AM | 68. I was DM'ing, the barbarian was cutting through an alleyway. A chamber pot was emptied onto his head. The player said "I go screaming down the street!" 69. I was playing a dwarf battlerager. We were in a large underground passage, when a red dragon came charging through the tunnel at us. I put oil of impact on my helm, and rushed to met him with a headbutt of doom! Yeah, didn't go real well... |
| Yakostovian09-28-06, 09:34 AM | #70. Character Sleeps with mayors daughter. She has a good enough time that she would like to see him again. She bothers the PC. He tells her to leave. She doesn't (thinking he is playing hard to get) He stabs her, "Just once, and not in a vital area" he tells me. She leaves, but brings the town guards with her. I immediatly told him to write Chaotic Evil on his character sheet (he had been Neutral/Undecided up to that point) |
| theartistformerlyknownas09-29-06, 03:42 AM | 71. My first character's last words... "So, why do they call you the silent lich?" |
| Aaron L10-02-06, 04:38 AM | Ok, well this is in Greyhawk and not the Realms, but it is memorable. I was running Temple of Elemental Evil back in 1E, my first attempt at DMing. Well, my one friend, lets call him D (for Dumbass) decides he wants to play a Paladin, and since I had just gotten Unearthed Arcana I said he could be a Cavalier-Paladin, I encouraged him to try it out. So he made up a Paladin who worshipped Pholtus (He of the Blinding Light) An albino who looked like Tom Petty and wore a cowboy hat (sigh) So, we get a bit into the module, and he suddenly decides (after two game sessions, that he doesnt like his character. Well, instead of waitng til they get back to town and having his character leave and bringing a new one in, he decides to stand up right after a fight in the moathouse, declaim in a loud voice "F**K PHOLTUS!" and slit his own throat. The rest of the party, characters and players both, were stunned into silence. The game kind of froze, and after a few minutes I just ended it for the night, everyone was too stunned to continue playing. Well, the next game night comes around. I was almost hesitant to have D come back, but he was a friend so I let let him in. He had a new character he wanted to play, his stock Chaotic Neutral dwarven Fighter (which he remade in every campaign of every DM since he started playing D&D. I think he called him Fudgehole or somethung like that.) He comes into the game, hooks up with the group, and follows them to the local merchants to buy some gear. These merchants were actually Assassins, and they were pretty seedy. They overcharged him on an axe, so instead of the axe he decided to buy some paint. He took the paint out and wrote (and I apologize for repeating this) "***** lair" on the outside wall of the shop, and came back in and said "you guys *****? It says so on your wall." Then he threw the bucket of paint at them. The two Assassin/merchants sent thier stable boy, a zero level human, to get him and bring him back to the shop so they could tell him off. As D's dwarf was running, this boy chased him down the street for a while, until D stopped, turned around, drew his axe, and planted it in the boys skull. The game paused, I told everyone I was taking a short break, and went outside for a smoke. After about 15 minutes I came back into the room to see everyone staring wide eyed at D, still not comprehending why he was doing all this. We started the game up again and the Lawful Good Ranger grabs D and pins him to the ground as the rest of the party ties him head to toe in 50 feet of rope (they specifically said they used all 50 feet :)) They take him to the Cleric of St Cuthbert, who immediately threw D in jail until they could hold trial. D couldnt understand what he had done wrong or why the rest of the party had captured him and turned him over to the authorities. After all, all he had done was kill a zero level human, he was a PC! I guess he thought he shouldnt have to deal with things like "consequences for his actions" and silly stuff like that. So, all the characters went back to the Inn of the Welcome Wench to sleep for the night. I asked D what he was doing and he said he wanted to break out of jail. I gave him a Bend Bars/Lift Gates roll to break the cell door, but he failed. So he went to sleep. Later that night the merchant/Assassins snuck into the jail; I gave D a Wisdom check to hear them enter (he failed) and they assassinated him quite handily. I ended the whole thing there and didnt run another game for 5 years. The last time I talked to him he still didnt think he had done anything wrong and we had been unfair to him and his character for putting him in jail. He claimed since he was Chaotic Neutral he should have been able to do anything he wanted since it was 'in character' and couldnt comprehend that being 'in character' isnt some kind of immunity from game world consequences, nor that he was making the other players uncomfortable by being a comlpletely annoying halfwit. But hes pretty much a burnt out stoner, so I dont hold his mental faculties in very high regard, and I dont associate with him any longer anyway. (I despise people who think having a Chaotic Neutral alignment is an excuse to be a complete psychotic ass, CN isnt insane. CN is about being more concerned with freedom than anything else, not about randomly deciding every action from round to round.) |
| Yakostovian10-02-06, 06:03 AM | 73. We were playtesting the Epic level handbook. One player made sure he had enough money to buy Ethereal full plate. He got seperated from the party, and used a spell to figure out where we were going. He decided to go ethereal and cut through the Ethereal plane to get there. DM: "There are creatures on the ethereal plane, and they can see you." PC: "Really? Maybe I should just 'pop out' " DM: "Are you sure you just want to 'pop out?' " (In a tone of concern) PC: "Yeah I'm sure. I'm just gonna 'pop out.' " DM: "Are you sure?" (Annoyed concern.) PC: "Yeah, I'm just gonna 'pop out.' " (I know what I'm doing tone) DM: "Ok. (DM rolls a secret number of dice) Uh-oh. John, what is your fort save?" PC: "+15" DM: "Roll it." PC: "S***" (Natural 1) DM: "Well, your corpse will be found when someone decides to cut down that tree" Shortest lived Epic-level-character ever. Creation Time: 1 hour, 12 minutes. Play Time: Just under 15 minutes. 74. We were playing an epic level campaign for a long time. The same player as above did not have an epic level character. He had been wanting to play a Great Red Wyrm dragon for sometime, and the DM really wanted to see how they could work in a party, so he allowed John to play as a great red wyrm dragon. We get to a combat encounter, and during it, the DM says the enemy wizard is casting Fireball. Everyone make a reflex save, DC 32. The DM assumed that J knew, that as a Red Dragon, he was immune to fire, and even if he wasn't, his spell resistance would probably protected him. He forgot, and immediatly grabbed the dice and said "i rolled a 32! Made it! BARELY!" He threw his hands up in the air, and made such a spectacle we could not contain ourselves. At first he was confused, and wondered what we were laughing about. Then he got it, and joined in on the laughter. A rules lawyer player then said that the Dragon should have crushed us in his attempt to avoid the fireball. The DM agreed. Everyone nearly died from being crushed by the dragon. |
| Lycan_Hunter_Corkie10-02-06, 10:56 PM | 75. my invisiable elf rogue with active airwalk spell goes to sneak up on some baddies. the dwarf barb jumps up and grabs on to my ankles and wont let go. so the cleric pulls out his crossbow with a wench on it and rope attched to the bolt and sinks it into his bum and proceedes to reel him in. |

That is far and away the most interesting feature I've every heard of for a crossbow. 76. This wasn't in my campaign but it's the greatest ever. The DM was describing something happening with a big mass of darkness. One fellow, playing a rogue (he liked rogues because of the many skill points they get; classic min/max-er), attacks some obvious enemies; then pulls out his crossbow and utters the now-famous (amongs us) phrase: "Second attack, on the darkness!" There he is, d20 in hand, rattling it about and we're all looking at him slack-jawed. He didn't quite realize what he had done. |

| CuttingTorch10-07-06, 10:30 PM | 77. 2nd ed. Characters obtain A Deck of Many Things, and after unsuccessfully trying to wish magic items for their party, the fighter gets frustrated and asks "Ok, How about a large weapon that deals massive damage?" I couldn't resist...............I dropped a 12 ton Kopesh right on top of the fighter. Death from massive dmg. From that point onward, they wouldn't touch anything that could possibly give them wishes. All of this because they tried to wish for another Deck. |

A friend of mine (playing a paladin) tried to convience DM that there's a one-handed d% sword somewhere in the world. Ah, those were the days... |
| yarethon10-10-06, 02:37 PM | 78- the party (5th level average) is trapped in a dead end inside a mountain by a band of ogres... After the rest of the group decided to stand all together to endure the incoming attack, the monk (3rd level character and the weakest of them all) decides to run ahead and stand alone in the face of 4 ogres charging ( believing he had enough high AC)... to the party dismay... ... He died in the first attack with a critical hit... 79- trapped in an interdimensinal space ( a house-like maze), the party had to solve a riddle to escape... this riddle in particular was set by a former priest of vecna ( was a greyhawk/planescape campaign)... the riddle had a mention to the lack of one hand and one eye by this deity, so an impatient character decided to cut his own arm ... he also tried to take out his own eye, but well... he died instead... |
| Bonzai10-10-06, 06:54 PM | Lol, reminds me of the infamous head of whats it story. |
| Garidas10-10-06, 07:02 PM | 80. A player playing a dwarf fighter gets the idea to go into a assassin guild and steal a treasure chest from them. Ohh, and yeah, the story ends like he gots a assassin guild wanting to kill him and a collosal red dragon after him. Yeah, he did steal from a red dragon too (He was level 4 or 5 when doing these things). |
| yarethon10-10-06, 07:18 PM | Lol, reminds me of the infamous head of whats it story. It also reminds me, but the player is new and probably does not know this story. Next time we'll try the head... maybe he will go for it. |
