[QUOTE="Clay_More, post: 700477, member: 9813"] Well, I sometimes give them odd rewards that are a bit specific. The best reward I have ever given, that the players really loved, was when they stepped through a wish-gate. It didn't allow them to make any specific wishes, instead I chose a benefit for them that fitted their personalities and character. My wizard player, that had a non-magical staff he had used fifteen minutes to explain, a quarterstaff with a head shaped like a ice dragon. I made his staff magical, so that it could use it's dragon's head to cast a cone of cold once a week. My rogue/fighter gained the ability to see through polymorph, even that of natural polymorphs (his family had been killed by shapeshifters and he had been hunting them ever since). My half-orc cleric gained the ability to change self twice a day (since he had always complained about how humans always disliked him and tried to cheat him, thinking him dumb). The change self only allowed him to change into a human. My monk/sorcerer was healed of a terrible curse inflicted on him by a lich, a curse that made him unable of hiding. The fighter didn't want to go through the gate, since he is suspicious of magic, which I actually consider good roleplaying (since he heard that the others had gained beneficial things). Im thinking of something to reward him later for that roleplaying, perhaps an XP bonus. Tell me, by all means, how you got the idea. Its a cool critter ;) [/QUOTE]
