We here a sharp scream from a back bedroom and rush there only to kill the cocatrice that had already turned the maid to Stone. Being a low level party we lacked the resources to correct that situation and were at a loss on how to break the news to the merchant. The priestess of Mystra smiles suddenly and says, 'I can handle this.' She marches right up to the merchant and informs him with a straight face and deadpan tone, 'Sir, I'm afraid your maid will now be decorating the courtyard.'----------Same game the Priest of Mystra found a ring of the ram. We were raiding a fortress, SWAT style. My fighter was breaking through the front door and making a ton of ruckus so the spellcasters and sneaky types could slip through an upper window. While I'm fighting for my life at the base of the tower, the Priestess saw a single ogre guard standing at the top of the stairs, watching the battle below. Three charges later the ogre is plummetting toward the bottom of the tower...where I am. I blink, think over my options for a moment, then asked, 'Can I make a save vs. falling ogre?' Save vs. Falling ogre became a campaign classic we used whenever we were in some ridiculous situation.----------We're playng Rifts: Africa as an incredibly powerful party trying to put an end to the Four Horseman. The Dragon and Cyberknight were scouting ahead and found a large tribe of natives to speak with. The dragons lands a goodly distance away and lets the Cyberknight walk up to parley. The Cyberknight strides up to these NPCs, strikes a heroic poses, and proclaims loudly, "Our Magick is Greater than Yours!" The npcs shrug and wander off. We /needed/ the information they were going to pass on and paid dearly for the lack of it. Everytime the Cyberknight saw fit to parley we'd taunt him with 'Our Magick is Greater than Yours!'---------My wife had a amusing if unintentional KODT moment in my Arcana Unearthed game. While she was on watch, Incorporeal Undead roll into camp. She sptted them coming and opted to wake up the party's giant warmain...by shooting him with her crossbow. Despite cries of dismay from the giant's player, I smile and tell her to roll to hit. Natural Twenty confirmed with a 19+. 11 points of damage later, the giant is cursing and jumping about with a bolt in his buttocks while trying to activate Chi Julud.</blockquote>
