[QUOTE="cidak, post: 1255168, member: 15493"] To set the scene. D20, Evil campaign, set in Middle Earth. Four of us travelling through the underdark to the surface. DM brutally murdered a PC the week before (two assassins attacked during the surprise round - rest of the party was 3 rounds away). The party morning the loss turns in the dead PC's head to be the reward that was out for him. (hey...we are evil) This week 3 + one new PC come across a plant that is able to restore life and regenerate lost limbs. Party thinks cool, that'll come in handy. BTW we are level 2 and 3. Later headless, dead PC arrives to drive off a Werewolf dogging the party. Party thinks....we could restore old member, regenerate miss bits and keep the gold from the reward. WIN! The party gives the plant to the headless undead. The undead consumes the plant by crushing it and shoving it down it's throat and comes back to life....sort of. Still smells of death, has no head and is able to communicate via a rasping gurgling in his throat. Each member of the party looks at the other...pauses...and attacks, hacking the thing to bits. Our DM must have spent ages setting the sequence of events, it was all typed up, the raised character had all sorts of new powers and it worked...for about 20 seconds. Oh well, back to the drawing board. [/QUOTE]
