[QUOTE="kenada, post: 8606831, member: 70468"] "thief has a death wish" There were two times during the session where I thought the thief was going to get everyone killed. The first time, he kept wanting to sneak down into the statue garden to get a better look at the “iron bull” (a D&D gorgon). Even after a robed figure came out (which was a classical gorgon), he still seemed keen on getting closer. The barbarian talked him down from his crazy plan, and they eventually withdrew after the figure went back inside. The second time was when they were breaking camp. The morning after camping, the party found evidence that tigers had been snooping around their camp during the night. The thief decided he wanted to kill* the tigers for his goal that session (to fell a fell beast), so he threw a ration to them to lure them out and intended to shoot them with his bow. On their turn, the barbarian lead the horses and wagon (where the thief was sitting) away while the tigers were distracted. [HR][/HR] * I’m running a B/X-based homebrew system. The thief has 15 hp. The tigers have 6 HD. The party also had a barbarian and a cleric. Everyone was 4th level, and the system makes characters more capable than their B/X counterparts, but it still would have been ugly. The first scenario would have almost certainly ended with a thief statue added to the garden. [/QUOTE]
