I guess.The party was trapped in a narrow tunnel, the chamber beyond guarded by an angry five-headed hydra.  The passage was easily long enough to remain out of the beast's reach, but the party certainly wouldn't last forever... even though they had previously taken a beating in their first such encounter.  Finally, determined to attempt to lure the creature heads into reach one at a time if necessary, the party's axe-wielding giant and the litorian get to their feet and move toward the exit."Wait," the magister says, springing to his feet, his face alive with inspiration, "let me try something first."  The warriors paused to witness the wizard's forthcoming moment of genius.  With a muttered incantation and a wave of his staff, the magister conjures an electric monkey just within the tunnel entrance.  Without missing a beat, the monkey manages a single "ook" before one of the hydra's massive maws snatches it up with a critical hit and all that remains its a fading crackle of energy.Stunned, the table gets real quiet for all of two-and-a-half seconds before the player of the litorian turns toward the clever magister and growls, in a characteristic deadpan, "So, what's your next plan...?"Gales of laughter ensue....</blockquote>
