This one happened just today in my new campaign. One of the PCs (lvl 3 Druid) found a flask full of red liquid. The flask feels warm to the touch, and the liquid seems to be boiling at a slow rate. Now, just after finding the flask (which is still in the druid's hand), a pair of hobgoblins burst...

It's not technically a "critical failure", but we rule that the more extreme the roll, the more extreme the results in that direction (although usually that means the description is cooler but with no effect on gameplay). In this case his rolls were bad enough to justify this, IMO.

I do my best. And my major talents lie in the direction of plot creation ;) .

Alright, how about this proposal: HIddukel asks them to take what seems to be a small, useless necklace from the apartments of a man's room as he sleeps (they don't know his identity) and place it in a wardrobe in the neighboring room. It turns out that the necklace was the only thing the owner...

The DM :p . But seriously, I think its good to let players revive their characters. After all, as has already been mentioned, the cost is huge, and the effort in getting from lvl 1 to level 7 or whatever is pretty big. It's not the same when all of a sudden you're presented with a new lvl 7...

What is the strangest campaign setting you've ever plated in, DMed for, or created? It can be published or homebrew. Strangest could mean "it all takes place on the Plane of Air" or "The earth is actually a giant floating cube which rotates around a black hole", or something else. I mean REALLY...

I second that

...why is this thread under "humor"?

The thread title is a real eyecatcher! This deserves to be stickied...such is my prayer to the moderators

What's the most fun individual encounter/combat you've ever had, and what made it so special? It can be something you played or something you DMed for, but let's hear the stories of the crazy, insane, awesome, combats. It could be great because of the situation, the monsters, or some HUGE...

Alright, I've showed the way I've personally always done it. After all, he is the mastermind of the whole thing, so he should be a smart in a lawful way. That's my reasoning, anyways

d5s are for finding the chances of the party's survival: THE D5: 1= totally screwed 2= no hope at all 3= I hope they have resurrection 4= dragon food 5 = not even time to despair 6= they have a moderate chance of survival

Mentally:Gnome (clever, pranking, creative, too curious for my own good) Physically: Human (come on...but really, I'm very tall and thin, stealthy, doesn't fit in other categories except elf) Class: not exactly sure, but I'm a duelist, arcane trickster, loremaster type of person, and lvl 25...

Yah, the important thing is that since in a devil's plan, EVERYTHING would have been pre-planned and completely set up, with dozens of fall-back plans (all planned over hundreds of years!), so you would have to make them ready for anything. They would have agents throughout the major cities and...

The oddest adventure (actually, a mini-arc, because we didn't have time) I ever DMed was when the characters were ALL transported to the ethereal plane without the magic to return, and had to somehow get their way back. There were some, very few, people who could see them and communicate with...

Mine is a demon/devil face with its maw wide open. It looked like...well, KrazyHades! And the SN is not supposed to be just dark "evil" hades. Hades was also the god of the fields of elysium (read: heaven). Yah. And then I'm kinda crazy :P.

Because the people you know who play them don't play them creatively! Druids are especially customizable. But do you mean between campaign settings and editions, or just between individual characters n the 3.5 edition?

You could deck them out in all SORTS of divine regalia. I'm thinking some more than weapons: rings, amulets, scrolls of IMMENSE power (even epic-level spells, for example). If you're REALLY evil (and I've done this...against a party of lvl 40s, though!) you could give them wands of miracle (but...

Woah, random comment, but Mara, did you get your SN from the Belgariad/Mallorean?

Tear range? As in he can rip limbs further away than his weapon can even reach!? I'm confused by the term.
