[QUOTE="Dausuul, post: 7420178, member: 58197"] I once ran a campaign in which the world was locked in an arcane Cold War between the evil elvish empire, full of intrigue and dark magic, and the gnomish republic with their Iron Legion of golems. The orcs were a race of paladins, the dwarves were nomads, the halflings had a continent-spanning crime network, and the humans were a fading race out of legend. That was the campaign where one of the players began pretending to receive magical messages from a wizard named Kraelgor Draco. The player would pass me a note saying he wanted to talk in private, we'd go in the other room, and discuss some random thing for a bit; then he'd come back and announce that Kraelgor Draco had sent him another vision. He got the party going on quests and NPCs all over the world dancing to the tune of this completely imaginary archmage. For a while he was pretty much dictating the course of the campaign.
