[QUOTE="Kanegrundar, post: 2220304, member: 3913"] Back in the early days of 3E, I wrote a monster called an Abiku. They were fiends that would convice children to commit unspeakable acts of violence (usually against their parents or siblings). Well, the party was getting close to discovering what was going on in the campaign, to I sent a bunch of controlled, psychotic children after the party. They didn't want to attack, but the kids kept attacking. It wasn't pretty. Then there was the modern game I played in in which we were a group of mercs sent into the jungles of Vietnam to discover the whereabouts of a pharmacutical research team. One of the researchers was a sorcerer that found a site that had an inactive gate to a realm of nightmares. We didn't stop him before he opened the gate, and then ran when he did. As we ran, we came to an area filled with cobwebs. One NPC was suddenly pulled up into the canopy. We heard screams and then silence. Right as we're about to leave, a cocoon falls to the ground. One player goes up to it, to see if maybe the NPC was still alive, but right as he was about to cut away the webbing, the body bursts open and hundreds of cat-sized spiders poured out. Being an arachnaphobe (both in RL and with my character) my action was to run like a bat out of heck! That session actually gave me nightmares that night. Kane [/QUOTE]
