[QUOTE="Kahuna Burger, post: 3424908, member: 8439"] The hostage encounter or the saving with Close Wounds? Due partly to the in and out of character belief that the area we were in should have been free of people, partly to the fact that the hostage was a priest of Herionious (sp?) and we felt would not necassarily [b]want[/b] to be saved in exchange for a murderer running free and doing more damage (assuming the hostage was real) and partly due to an entirely player based crankyness at being sufficiently jerked around with enemies we can never quite defeat due to DM or module fiat, we charged and attacked the illusionist, sadly leading to the hostages death. It's OK, it turned out he was a cultist who could have gotten most of us killed anyway... :p After I discovered the spell I should have had, and started preparing it, we fought a floatsam ooze, which was smashing our highest hp fighter into a fine pulp. The Close Wounds kept him alive long enough for the reckless cleric and swashbuckler to leap headlong into the ooze and take turns smiting it... [/QUOTE]
