Message: <blockquote data-quote="Tsyr" data-source="post: 153160" data-attributes="member: 354">A few RL years ago, our DM ran an adventure that was actualy quite touching. Our characters defeated a major threat to the world, but died in the proccess. We were actualy wiped out before we completed our task to but one man, a cleric, who prayed to his god for the ability to complete the mission. It worked, sort of. We were all raised temporarily, and finished what we had to do, but the cleric died in the casting of the "spell". When we were done, the god the cleric worshiped came down and explained we were given only a brief respit from death. The god then opened a portal for each of us to our respective afterlife, and we were allowed to just walk in... a heros rest. We left a message, in the form of a magic-mouth type spell from the mage, and each left one physical item behind as a marker of our final resting place, since we physicly entered the afterlife. We have been playing a game set in that world for some time now, set about 600 years in the future of the old game. Our characters are all legends now, with bardic songs wrote about their "final battle"... all of which false, no one witnessed our final battle, but that's besides the point. Well, our current party had been hired to investigate some strange goings-on in some ruins to the south, and after some undead-butt-kicking, we explored the ruins. In a colapsed chamber, we found a bastard sword, a battle axe, a bow, a talisman, and a spellbook. The items our old characters had left behind.We also found the magic mouth. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" />All of the items are minor artifacts now. I actualy have my old characters weapon, and I'm not terribly happy about that... My old character was a paladin of the god of suffering... lawful evil, but not in the baby-killing way, more in the fatalistic and depressive sort of way. My character was not happy to die in the first place... not ready, basicly, he had a son he wanted to see grow up... and my sword is sentient. With my old personality. And its trying to take over my character. And I have no in-game knowledge of this, only meta game, so I can't just throw it away.D'oh.It's still very cool though.</blockquote>
