[QUOTE="Mudhen, post: 6472732, member: 6787770"] I just had to share this write up from one of the players in my group. I have cleaned up the language for young ears. I tell you my group is reckless to say the least, but see if this sounds like a typical gaming session in your house, and if it is not then you are not playing the worlds best RPG game right!!! (that's my opinion) Also as a DM I have to be on my toes always trying to get these guys out of sticky situations and TPK's I remember things a bit differently: The party entered the crypts, but Devora wisely advised against touching anything. 'Cuz she's wiser than everyone. Then everyone who is not nearly as smart as Devora teleports to the Room of Certain Death. Feeling bad, because she knows they will die without her, she follows them. She was able to guess the correct rune to push, because she's in tight with the gods. Room of Certain Death: Four stoned adventurers, Stedd hanging back (because he's being played by Bad Azz Paul at this point) avoids the stonage, Devora busts out the mirror and defeats what's probably the biggest threat in the dungeon with one move. Owned it! Stedd and Sarius defeat the flesh golem after Devora bravely steps up and tanks, soaking mega-damage. Party get's mostly un-stoned and we soldier on. Can you guess what the biggest threat was? Room of Obvious Death: It's simple. Two stone trolls looking like they want to kill everyone, and a lever with a big sign over it saying "don't pull me or you're screwed." Phoebe races for the lever, because she's Phoebe, and condemns us to our fate. Pretty sure I overheard her say "If Stedd's gonna die, he's gonna die" before doing it. Fortunately we have Garland, a sorcerer with a ton of fire magic. Sadly, his broken magic backfires and he spends the next ten rounds blowing bubbles and chucking random patches from his robe of useless items at the trolls. Dogs? Check. Pit? Check. Lantern? Check. Bag of Planters peanuts? Check. So our main weapon is neutered. Phoebe has some inspiration (not in game terms) and says, I'ma light this guy up with my lantern, but I'm all busy beating my drum to inspire you guys, so someone grab it from me. Sarius is like - please, I have sharp weapons that don't do nothing to these trolls and I'm gonna hack away futiley to see if maybe they suddenly stop regenerating. Again Devora saves the day, by smashing the lantern out of Pheoebe's hand and lighting the wall on fire behind the troll. She totally meant to do that so we could set up a one-two punch of the troll being pushed into the wall and burning up. I forget who did the pushing, it's not that important. Oh yeah, prior to do this, Stedd got his face bitten off. Blood was everywhere and he was blinded with blood.
