(Even though the stuff like melting puppy dogs still freaks me out as well.)261.) The PCs lose time. They seem to be running out of supplies faster than they thought. Seem to be standing in the midst of battle while they were previously camping. They are not all losing time at once, some members can recall having detailed conversations with the ones that have lost time, which could have spanned any given amount of time, minutes, hours, days.262.) Similar to the one above. The PCs finally make it home after accomplishing the task they went to the Mournland for. They spend some time at home, recounting their events, talking with friends, having a decent meal, when they slowly realize that they aren't really home, they never made it home. Little things are different, like people not remembering them, or their favorite pub closing down for no reason, or people they know to be dead they share a casual conversation with. When the feeling of wrongness hits them, they immediately snap back to reality, not knowing how that happened. It doesn't have to happen while they sleep either, just suddenly, they are standing, in the Mournland, weeping, screaming... "This can't be happening!" Roll a sanity check!263.) Slow, droning music starts to play over the terrain, a dirge, slowly building... slowly making you sad, or angry, reminding you of how much you hate the other PCs... Why did you come here? It was all the wizard's idea, right? You hate the wizard, and his superiority complex. A well placed dagger in his neck should do the trick. (wizard is killed by the rogue) Music still plays... Why did you come here? It was all the paladin's idea, right? You hate the paladin and all his hypocrisy...</blockquote>
