[QUOTE="Baldurs_Underdark, post: 8122868, member: 6880355"] It's interesting that the first few people that replied to this thread very successfully hijacked this thread. So, here's an anecdote. Our party of three went into a town. We just purchased an important scroll to get rid of our curse, and we were in a safe place and a good mood. So, we did what most roleplayers do in that situation: We hit the pub (while having beers in real-life too). Encouraged by an enthusiastic barman (and a well-made menu with interesting ales & spirits to try, made by our DM - probably home[I]brew[/I] (get it?)), two out of the party of three started binge drinking. At some point, the DM made us roll a CON save to see if we were holding our drinks in. Natural one for the half-orc, natural two for the elf. The DM narrated that we went into a blackout and did not remember what happened next. He basically took over the characters and made us sing and scream in the streets and cause a great ruckus in the middle of the night. The halfling monk subsequently tried to save the [S]day[/S] night by tying a rope around us and dragging us out of town (city guards were happy to open the gates and let us out into the night). She then tied us to a tree and went to sleep herself. Next morning, we woke up, hung over, soiled and still tied to a tree. We missed our appointment with the local cleric and had to humbly apologize and wait another week to get rid of our curse. [/QUOTE]
