[QUOTE="Cedric, post: 855050, member: 2044"] I'll just second those saying that they've gotten emotional in games before. There have been a few times, when someone either came through or didn't make it through in a tense situation that myself or other members of the group have gotten emotional. It goes both ways though...once our entire group, except for me, the thief, was down and bleeding on the ground. They were all at anywhere from -2 to -6 hps. The only opponent left alive was a Vrock (2nd ed game). I didn't have a weapon that would hurt it, so my thief picked up two weapons he was not proficient with off the ground. A few rounds went by to no avail...and I was down to just one hp...and we knew the Vrock was hurt bad, but he wasn't yet at the edge of death...like I was. Well...I won initiative and rolled to hit...I rolled a 20, which is actually what I needed to hit the Vrock, because of my non-proficiency penalty. We cheered some..but the gm confirmed that I could not kill it in one hit, so I did damage, it was close to max damage. Then I rolled again to hit with my off hand. Once more...I rolled a 20, this time I did enough damage to put it down and immediately started binding wounds. Now that was an emotional moment.... Cedric [/QUOTE]
