| megageek11-26-06, 10:01 PM | So this is basically a lis tof the stupidest campaign ideas ever! |
| Damior11-26-06, 10:08 PM | I hope mechmage doesnt look here. He wants to make a campaign with no magic, and only humans. pretty much fantasy-less fantasy |
| Crystal Monk11-26-06, 10:14 PM | 2: "welcome to the all-ooze campaign!" |
| megageek11-26-06, 10:15 PM | 3:The giant elder black puding rome an emperor(true story). |
| Drucilla_Rocks_my_Socks11-26-06, 10:20 PM | Where are yours? I'll get started: 4. Antrophomorphic dogs are performing racial purification on the poor and helpless kobolds. Legend tells of the great hero pun-pun who can stop them... 5. The busty elf princess has been captured. 6. The feyries have eyes and are watching, forging magic swords to attack the rabbits for destroying thier alfalfa...choose your side. 7. Get this, a techno-magic world where everyone plays middle class adolecent academics who play D&D...and their characters also play D&D! Isn't that sweet. 8. An evil deamon is forcing everyone to burst into song, and you must sing all your actions, plus sucessfully burst into song for a sucessfull attack. 9. Get this: We're on an airship, but somone brough snakes on it! 10. A group of mindflayers is planning to resurface and go to Wimbleton to dominate the tennis tournement. 11. A war is being waged between cats and commoners... 12. What if we based a campiegn off of the sisterhood of the travelling pants... 13. OK, our characters are satan worshipping emo kids who kill thier parents after playing too much D&D and we must find jesus (kind of a variation on #4) 14. What if we were the dice, and the dice were us. 15. The elven kingdom has been attacked by an army of orcs, deamons, and undead! Now the races of man and the dwarven kings must stand with them and fight! The only hope is the players, a group of exaulted chaotic good drow paladins who dual wield scimatars! |
| tsuyoshikentsu11-26-06, 10:25 PM | 9. Get this: We're on an airship, but somone brough snakes on it!Enough is enough! I have had it with these mother****** Snakes on a Plane jokes! |
| megageek11-26-06, 10:28 PM | The gnomes revolt against glarl glittergold because they want to be lawful evil. |
| CrossBlade11-26-06, 10:37 PM | All the alcohol in the tavern that the PCs meet in, has been stolen. |
| Roivas11-26-06, 10:44 PM | 17. Kool-Aid Man strikes! The player must stop his rampage. 18. The all commoner party vs. Orcus. 19. The players are tasked with finding the storyline by the king, a legendary artifact that can tell people what is going on in the world. 20. The heroes must assemble this living egg that has fallen from a nearby wall. 21. Protect the medium transport as it recklessly flies heldlong at the paragon great wyrm prismatic dragon. 22. The players win their oiwn dungeon in a gameshow complete with its own monsters, puzzles, and treasure. 23. All the players are awakened dogs who are trying to escape the chains of their masters. 24. Everyone plays the Tarrasque at the same time, they must act in unison to move properly, each player gets one or two appendages. 25. Find the fish! |
| Kobold_Avenger11-26-06, 11:05 PM | 17. 24. Everyone playsthe Tarrasque at the same time, they must act in unison to move properly, each player gets one or two appendages. LOL thats funny. 26. All the drow become CG because they think they are all CG |
| tsuyoshikentsu11-26-06, 11:22 PM | 21. Protect the medium transport as it recklessly flies heldlong at the paragon great wyrm prismatic dragon....Which then repeatedly yells at them for not protecting it, while the NPCs assigned to help you happily disregard everything you say and fly RIGHT INTO IT. What are you talking about? I love Rogue Squadron! |
| TheCrawlingSpleen11-26-06, 11:54 PM | 9. Get this: We're on an airship, but somone brough snakes on it! What are you talking about? That's the ultimate adventure idea! :rofl: |
| megageek11-27-06, 12:06 AM | A massive army of dominated, Tiefling Paladins, plans a massive assault on cheeseland, to please thier dominater, the Cheesemaster! |

| rudie11-27-06, 02:53 AM | 30. Base a campaign off of Happy Feet 31. Everything is a horrible pun. (magic missle is an enchanted bomb etc.) |
| angryman11-27-06, 02:53 AM | An evil vampire necromancer tries to take over the...something... Evil outsiders are planning an invasion of the prime material plane! Orc invasion! These aren't stupid, but if I see *ONE* more vampire NPC, I will stake the DM through the heart. |
| Dethro11-27-06, 02:58 AM | 32: A god called USSR is made entirely of ooze that turns everything it touches into evil ooze, and we the heroes destined to destroy it. Except, of course, that the kings and lords that send us on our way tell us that the payment is coming once we defeat USSR... Essentially sending us off empty-handed. Oh, and then we have to ride in a submarine and face off against each one of the lords of hell because the DM got the book a few weeks ago and wanted us to face them all... Despite us being only level 16.. And none of the lords know how to use their spells or spell-like abilities properly. |
| Raygenh11-27-06, 04:58 AM | 33. The entire world is under attack from a huge, menacing white balloon that makes weird noises when it bounces but has otherwise failed to prove it is at all a threat, nevertheless the PCs are the only ones in the world who don`t run with terror when it appears. |
| HerbalTea11-27-06, 09:53 AM | 34. The local town mayor has recently decided to take a shower in troll snot. After this, he decided to then pluck sixty seven thousand chickens and cover himself in their feathers. After renaming himself Snottagore, he crushed the skulls of every member of his town with a walking stick. After guffawing for seven moons, he ate his own left foot. Then he ripped out his right eye and fed it to his pet swan. He now resides in a large wooden box full of monkey blood. The PCs have heard rumours of the mad mayor but will be payed one thousand gold each if they completely ignore the place. |
| Drucilla_Rocks_my_Socks11-27-06, 07:00 PM | All the alcohol in the tavern that the PCs meet in, has been stolen. I actually had that as an adventure once...Second adventure, right after the PCs were hired to clear out some goblin caves that they were going to put the booze in (to hide it from the fuzz) 30. Base a campaign off of Happy Feet I wanna do that! I mean it has singing ghetto penguins...and feet...dosn't get much better than that! Anyways, I'll do afew more... 35. The city has outlawed all weapons, and everything that possibly be used as a weapon. Now street gangs of antroporphic rabbits duke it out with staplers and pillows. 36. A grivious sin has been committed. We must go back in time to prevent this horrible event from happening: in 1989 Jethro Tull was awarded "Best Hard Rock/Metal" in the grammy awards. While a wonderful band, they are not hard rock, and now the PCs must go back in time to change the past. 37. OK, how about instead of killing the orcs, we try to convince them to make them nice, though thereputic foot massage and herbal remadies. 38. All cleric Jim Jones Campiegn. 39. A campiegn based of of Pixar's Cars |

| darkdragonk11-28-06, 11:41 PM | Ok picture a campain where ou play amorphic turtles............... Forrgotten Realms (Eberron all the way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) a world where you learn you are acuallly controlled by middle aged geeks who have no lives and where your parents are books! a campain based of *insert stupid childrens show here* eg. Dora the Explorer A campain where you have to really do what your character (LOL "I,m whering boots of escaping!" |

| Bandolar Goldcrest11-30-06, 04:44 AM | a campain based of *insert stupid childrens show here* eg. Dora the Explorer I did something based on this. No one wants a Handy Haversack anymore since they have to sing the "Backpack" song from Dora the Explorer when they use it! |

| Sunic_Flames11-30-06, 08:15 AM | 11. A war is being waged between cats and commoners... Fluffy! :rofl: |
| Magetastic11-30-06, 11:06 AM | 47. (i think) the PCs have to fight their way out of the elemental plane of... snakes:P 48. after the PCs almost kill a plane obsessed BBEG panicked he activates all his plane study and travel gear at once, warping reality and mearging the planes of ravenloft with xanth together one of his portal devices opens and sucks the party into the new plane. Everthing is an evil pun the party has to find a way to unentangle the two planes. Half breeds are everywere and all the NPCs have some sort of natural magical ability. Possible plot hooks include. - The psycho path an evil path that insane things happen on and the party is attacked by pseudonatural creatures and aberrations often. - Arson Ick a huge posionous ooze living in a village sewer that somtimes sets a building on fire for no reason and slowly kills the villagers by poisoning the water supply. - an evil guy named Perver Ted is corrupting a city to commit ungoldy sickening acts most resent of which is kidnapping another villages children. This village asks the heros for help stop him and recover the children before he does somthing horrible to them. i thought it was pretty stupid. |
| megageek11-30-06, 10:25 PM | 49. The Cha 18 vampire spwan starts flirting with the pc's. |
| memberZ12-01-06, 04:46 PM | All commoners wear Cheese heads and pray to the uber god Gouda. The BBEG has just created and army weilding hot knives. |

| aotrscommander12-02-06, 07:40 PM | 31. Everything is a horrible pun. (magic missle is an enchanted bomb etc.) Actually, this happens in more or less all our games (including wargames), irrepective of rules or genera anyway... An evil vampire necromancer tries to take over the...something... These aren't stupid, but if I see *ONE* more vampire NPC, I will stake the DM through the heart. You'd like my games...Vampires are never anything but cannon-fodder. (Usually under the command of the far superior Liches...) The no-magic, no-supernatural campaign. Like, say, Stargate SG-1 D20...? 52: All the PCs are sheep. (My sister suggest this once. There was a resounding chorus on "No.") 53: Any game based on a reality television show. 54: Any game based on anything from Nickelodeon, with the possible exception of Invader Zim and Avatar. 55: All the characters are blind, deaf and crippled (and not psionic). 56: Any PC is a Vampire, Gungan or Ewok, unless they die in the first five minutes. 57: Any campaign where an Elf wields a greatsword... |
| tsuyoshikentsu12-02-06, 09:11 PM | 54: Any game based on anything from Nickelodeon, with the possible exception of Invader Zim and Avatar.You better be excluding Legends of the Hidden Temple and Are You Afraid of the Dark?. |
| Neo_Leviathan12-02-06, 09:24 PM | 58 - A game with completely unrestricted access to the Custom Magic Item Rules |
| aotrscommander12-02-06, 09:25 PM | You better be excluding Legends of the Hidden Temple and Are You Afraid of the Dark?. Not heard of the first one (maybe it hasn't made it to the UK?), entirely unimpressed by the second. (NB: There are other good shows Nickeodeon has done, but most of the rest would make pretty stupid campaigns, hence their inclusion! (I mean, a Spongebob campaign...even if some might think it a fun campaign, it's got be stupid by definition, right?) I could have said the same about Disney, with the exceptions of W.i.t.c.h and Kim Possible...) |
| megageek1212-03-06, 12:11 AM | I am the original poster, forgot pass and for some reason can't recover. #x: A campaign where dire sharks are pc races. |
| memberZ12-03-06, 12:22 AM | 60?) The party are snails, escargot actually. The the evil wizard named Emeril wants to put to much salt on them and go 'Bam' to the plane. 61?) Our current campaign thought : Metalocalypse, we play gestalt Bard/ x 's in the band dethklok playing metal and reaping mayhem across the realm. |
| YamiSouru12-03-06, 12:28 AM | 62)attempting to go through the Tomb of Horrors. 63 any campaign based of anime with VERY FEW exceptions |
| Durin41312-03-06, 01:26 AM | A campiagn where the ultimate goal of the PCs is to battle the players themselves.... Seriously though, a campaign to fight an incredibly evil being know as teh DM.... |
| Rhythmic12-03-06, 04:20 AM | 65/ Forcing players to go collect 6rings/diamonds/gems/crystals of power to stop some evil guy who just wants to destroy the world.... just because. |
| Tyusk12-03-06, 09:14 AM | "Get this: We're on an airship, but somone brough snakes on it!" that is freakin AWESOME, hahaha! |
| BeefotronX12-03-06, 02:05 PM | 66) The party is a collection of intelligent inanimate objects. Everyone must play a spellcaster or psionic type, and gets Still Spell for free. |
| megageek1212-03-06, 05:09 PM | That might a fun rolelaying adventure. |
| Amon_WinterfallIV12-04-06, 03:41 AM | 68. The XXX Campaign out of Nuck and BoEF. 68b. FATAL's campaign setting (Yikes!) 69. Good and Evil have turned out to be the same--the face of the "goodinator" is the birth of a new world order as both Angel and Devil converges to screw mortals. 70. A campaign played in a 2D world, where occupying a space means what it does literally, and so few tactically options are available. 71. McJob Campaign: Fix burgers using the D20 system! |
| InterSilva12-04-06, 05:04 AM | 30. Base a campaign off of Happy Feet 31. Everything is a horrible pun. (magic missle is an enchanted bomb etc.) Unless I'm really missing something, that's not a pun. 72. The entire party is a group of hip vampires with homosexual tendancies on a quest to start a nu-metal band and end the world. |

| dragonface7212-06-06, 09:25 PM | The patron god of the elves is missing! The elves have become dour and greedy (as opposed to jolly and generous) without his presents/presence. Who is behind it? The gnomes, jealous of the jolly old elf's proficiency with gadget-making? Treats, enraged that the annual festival uses trees as part of the celebration? Perhaps the dire reindeer have revolted against their age-old servitude. Maybe the god of the dwarves is angry because the elven holiday overshadows his own year end celebration. Whatever the cause, our heroes must rescue the god of the elves, or else the children of the world will be very disappointed. And time is running out!! |
| Sphyre12-06-06, 10:36 PM | Enough is enough! I have had it with these mother****** Snakes on a Plane jokes! Then he did his job of making a stupid campaign idea then. These weren't supposed to be witty or good campaign ideas :P |
| talkingbeatles12-07-06, 03:26 AM | You all start off as children in a fantasy city, you must make a character with your name and roughly your real life stats. :rolleyes: Dude... That sounds cool. I wanna use that. Seriously. |
| scienceman4712-07-06, 04:05 AM | 1. Circus seals hunger for the blood of the innocent, and only the gelatinous cube monastary has the chuzpah to stop em. 2. A deadly land where the people are donkies and dancing is the only weapon. Eeyore meets you got served meets west side story meets animal farm. 3. PCs stumble upon an ancient happy meal box that professes to lead to Mr. T's treasure trove of bottle caps and slim-fast. Are you the type to wield two sided chainsaws against the grimace? |
| Ocalus12-07-06, 11:16 AM | "Okay, so this campaign is going to be the epic story of you walking across the world to throw a ring into a volcano…" |

| ScottTheGM12-07-06, 03:12 PM | An evil princess has captured a virgin dragon and intends to eat it if the PCs cannot stop her! The initial plot hook comes in the form of shepherds everywhere being overrun with their flocks as the necessary mechanic for keeping the sheep population under control has been removed by this foul vixen!

| Seghan12-08-06, 10:25 PM | An adventuring party of 5 PC's must seek out the evil, miserly king of a faraway land. Upon finding him, each draws upon their own speciality to give said king the "queer eye", making him so fabulous that his disposition improves and he rules more benevolently. My human rouge would handle... fashion! |

| Animae_Draconum12-08-06, 11:37 PM | A campaign where the DM allows anything printed by WotC/dragon magazine.... |
| Delfedd12-08-06, 11:56 PM | Actually, i just sent a submission to Dungeon magazine. It's a proposition for the next Adventure Path. A quest which will bring the heroes from level one through level twenty Thrill as the players begin by discovering that all the candy being taken by the Dark Lord Licorice. Watch in amazement as they travel through the picturesque Candy Cane Forest, avoiding the mint Golem which lives there. The players will drool over the beautiful queen Frostine and Princess Lolly, who may help them along their quest. To reach King Kandy in his Candy Castle, the players must defeat Juilbex, Demon lord of slime, or "Gloppy." That's right. Candy Land, the Adventure path. |
| ShinoAburame12-09-06, 02:04 AM | Stupid campaign ideas? Hmm.. Chuck Norris has turned chaotic evil. And it's up to you to stop him! |
| Illithid_Tentacles12-09-06, 02:19 AM | "Okay, so this campaign is going to be the epic story of you walking across the world to throw a ring into a volcano…" Damn you, I was going to say that. Anyway... "There's this crazy albino guy wandering around, see, and he's got this great big g**d*** katana, and he's invincible, but you (points to random player) used to know him, back when he wasn't crazy, and he's been killing people and you have to go find him. Oh, and everybody who uses magic has to wear jewelry to use it, and each piece only allows you to use one type of spell, like a ring could let you use Cure Minor Wounds, Cure Light Wounds, and Cure Moderate Wounds, once you've leveled up enough, and if you lose it, you can't cast those spells anymore until you get a new one." (I will be very, very surprised if anyone honestly doesn't get that) |

(I will be very, very surprised if anyone honestly doesn't get that) But they... Those worthless creatures are stealing the Planet from Mother. My turn? In a far-away galaxy, the planet of Vheloria used to be inhabited by humans, elves, dwarves, halflings and all other "common races". But now, the evil Ralon Empire - consisting of orcs, goblinoids, drow and the like, ruled by emperor Khralos - has conquered this world, forcing a handful of survivors to escape into space. With the Ralon forces in hot pursuit, the Vhelorians are forced to use their Space-Time Energy Projector, sedning them back to prehistoric Earth. But the Ralons are thrown there with them, bringing the war to a new battleground. The Vhelorians use their benevolent magics to befriend the native dinosaurs (including the ones who actually lived many millions of years apart from each other), while the Ralons enslave them with their malevolent psionic technology. To better fight their opponents, both sides equip the dinosaurs with huge amounts of laser and weapon platforms, upon which people could ride, and attack one another. And so, the battle continues in a new place and time with... Terrible Lizard Knights! I dearly hope somebody gets that reference. |
