However, I've used both the search bar in the red line and at the top of the forum, both yield zero results, regardless of what I put in. (Even results for words like "adventure" or "dungeon" yield nothing). |

I think you have the right idea with someone unable to see members of a certain race; that opens the door to the kind of player-driven, absurd interactions that fuel a comedic game session. |

During the course of the adventure the wand breaks and releases a wave of chaos into the house. This caused all kinds of havoc. Animals and paintings talking. Paintings spilling over into the real world. Suits of armor and houehold items animating and attacking. Areas of bizzare physics-reverse gravity, no gravity, reverse impact-the harder you hit the less damage you would do. Reverse attributes-18's turning into 3's etc.... Spells causing strange fx-applause out of nowhere, flowers springing from the casters sleeves. I had servants transform into anthropomorphic animal versions of themselves. Bowls of fruit begging for mercy.
There was more but that's all I can remember off the top of my head.
The kicker to the story was the person that hired them was an avatar of Calandis(my homebrew version of a demigod of chaos and mischief) Calandis was also quite mad and schizophrenic. The person who stole the wand in the first place was one of his other personalities. |

Sorry if I wasted your time. But here's an idea I might share with you from a table I recently DM'ed. Basically our current DM got tired of being a DM (and it later turned out he was running out of material) and we made a whole adventure up off the cuff and negotiated our own rules as we went along. "Hmm, moist... What an interesting marinade you used... |
