Message: <blockquote data-quote="Gwaihir" data-source="post: 2221325" data-attributes="member: 14487">I was the DM for this one about 5 years ago.In a large dungeon crawl the players found a staff that was essentially a staff of power for clerics, flame strike, holy word, ressurrection etc. six or so functions, the party doesn't know what the staff does, but the six command words were engraved on the staff.During the course of this adventure they managed to kill the BBEG, an evil priest whose death somehow figured in a prophecy for all the PCs being healed of some mysterious disease they all had contracted. After killing him they decided to continue to explore and loot the dungeon.During this time, One of the characters, who the party had entrusted with the staff stayed with the body of the BBEG and proceded to try to test the staff, He used several of the healing functions on himself, but being healthy had no result, so finally he saysI touch the priests body and say the third command word.Ressurection. I about died myslelf. The BBEG killed him, took the staff and ran out of the dungeon.The same player had a 3rd level dwarf fighter attack a keep full of Goblins (100+) by himself because he figured he could only be hit with a natural 20. But we had just changed to 3E and several Goblins had fighter & monk levels.</blockquote>
