[QUOTE="BlackMoria, post: 3426088, member: 424"] I've rolled and seen rolled lots of '00' in my 30+ years of playing. In fact, for me, '00' isn't than uncommon, so remembering something memorable for a particular '00' roll is a stretch. I do remember one incident, with one of my players. 1E D&D with the System Shock rules. Don't remember the circumstances except that one the players had to make a system shock, deemed no biggie because his system shock was 99% and he failed only on 00. He rolled 00 and I told him he died. Boy, he was one unhappy camper. The party returned to civilization to have him raised and under the rules, you made a system shock to survive the raising attempt. Yep, you guessed it. The second 00 of the night. To say the player was pissed would be an understatement. I rolled up a uber intelligent sword once - 00 for intelligence potential and a subsequient 00, which meant the sword had a special purpose. It was one sweet blade - very powerful but with an arrogant, acerbic personality. After having the blade awhile and putting up with the constant acerbic mouthing of the blade, the party buried the blade under tons of rock! Now, how many players bury a +5 Defender sword with a buttload of abilities and powers and walk away. Priceless! [/QUOTE]
