[QUOTE="MinscFan, post: 337313, member: 3354"] D&D is a flexible game, maybe more so now that we have a fairly well developed d20 edition. Things that happen DO NOT ALWAYS have to fall within the rules of the game -- with some caveats. If the characters witness a spell that summons hoards of demons and that event is used to set the plot line or advance them to next portion of the adventure -- so be it. IF they are interested in how it was done, you've now got another hook to use for a later adventure. If an enemy NPC casts it to get rid of the players during a fight, then you have a potential mutiny on your hands. While there is always that "rule #1" paragraph in the DMG, throwing things at your PCs that they could not themselves achieve-- through hard work, research, training, or good roleplaying -- is a no-no and then I would disagree with doing it as a DM and as a player.
