[QUOTE="Richards, post: 8918277, member: 508"] I did something a little bit similar years ago, running our initial D&D 3.0 campaign with my two sons. They were running a male human cleric and a female elf sorcerer, and they both got hit by a pair of variant nagas with venom-laced tail stingers. The venom caused them to hallucinate, so I kept taking away their D&D PC sheets and replacing them with sheets from the game we were (allegedly) [i]really[/i] playing. In turn, their PCs (in their minds) became: [LIST] [*]Harry Sullivan and Sarah Jane Smith encountering cybermats in a game of "Time Lords and Temporal Anomalies" [*]Simon Tam and River Tam being chased in a hospital in a game of "Rebels and Reavers" [*]Xander Harris and Buffy Summers fighting vampires in a graveyard in a game of "Slayers and Scoobies" [*]Fox Mulder and Dana Scully fighting a pyrokinetic in a warehouse of fireworks in a game of "X-Files and Extraterrestrials" [*]John Steed and Emma Peel fighting cybernauts in an office building in "Agents and Avengers" [*]Reed Richards (Mister Fantastic) and Susan Richards (Invisible Woman) fighting Doctor Doom in "Marvels and Menaces" [/LIST] In each case, it seemed as if they were waking up from a dream and this new reality was what was [i]really[/i] going on. Eventually, the hallucinogenic venom wore off and they found themselves back in the treasure room, where they were being partially swallowed by the nagas. But I had made up alternate PC sheets for each of the alternate versions of their PCs, which included a logo of the fake game in the corner. This had the advantage of using the same set of rules (D&D 3.0), just a continuing sequence of different settings. It was fun for one session, but I wouldn't have wanted it to have gone any further than that. Johnathan [/QUOTE]
