Fun Facts: What's been missing

[Ry]

Do you remember when your players kind of outsmarted you, kind of bent the rules to do it, and you let them get away with it? Or when a player remembered something you said off-hand, and managed to turn it into something that saved the party?

I love those times. They feel smart, and the level of immersion just can't be beat.

So how can we make that happen? With fun facts!

Facts like:

Manticore droppings are peuce coloured, and they use their droppings to insult one another's territory. Manticores will make sure to destroy any peuce-colored objects in or near their lairs.

Or: The Bellguards' faction badge is an almond-shaped ruby. The secret is, that these badges are so hard to forge that almost no one ever does... so they don't get much scrutiny when presented.

Do you know what I mean?

First I thought what a boring thread; but then you started getting excited about Manticore droppings. Hey I'm in! Got any other facts about droppings for other monsters? My group is always interested in discussing topics like this, you wouldn't believe how much they are into this. It would be that much more fun if those discussions could actually be used for purposes of the game.

I, too, would like to discuss leavings.
