I had an NPC who had been cursed with an antimagic field, and left bleeding out of her guts. My plan was to have the PCs head out to a known source of intense life magic to get enough power to overwhelm the antimagic and heal her. I had a whole metaplot hook set up where they'd run into lots of stuff that will matter later in the campaign, wherein the PCs would have to team up with unsavory allies in order to get what they needed fast enough to save their friend.Instead, they went the A-Team approach, got all their allies to pool resources together, and used a much closer and safer source of intense radiant energy, combined with a couple magic items they'd found to create a sort of lens. Or arcane sunglasses. Basically, with a bit of roleplaying, ingenuity, and skill checks, they blew up two magic items in order to tint one type of magic into another, and use that to heal her.So time to find a new way to hook the party into the metaplot, but hey, they blew up their own magic items to save an NPC. How cool is that?</blockquote>
