Iron DM Ingredients -- semi-open call! (No Wicht or Rune!)

[Pielorinho]

Wicht and Rune, shoo! Go away!

We're reaching the final stretch of the Fall Iron DM Tournament, and I've got a request for ingredients.

Basically, the two folks who lost in the semifinals are competing for third place, and I'd like to get ingredients for their bout from ENWorld.

Priority on ingredient-gathering will go to participants in the tournament -- specifically, Wulf Ratbane, Nemmerle (who's already sent me his ingredient), Dave Turner, Cool Hand Luke, Nifft, Macbeth, and Mythago. However, if other people have ideas, post them here, and if I don't get enough entries from the tournament's contestants, I'll take ones from an open call.

Each person post only one ingredient, please, and make the ingredient in keeping with the style of other ingredients in this and other Iron DM tournaments.

Thanks!
Daniel

Thanks, and keep 'em coming, folks! Some things I'd like to see:

* A location or two
* An object or two
* A theme (heresy, devotion, revenge, etc.) or two
* An intangible (sunshine, flawed symmetry, forgotten tongue, etc.) or two.

We're good on characters for now.

Post before 5:30 pm!

Hmmmm, this is an interesting oportunity, so let me get my suggestion in:

Divine Intervention

and, if for some reason that won't work (it is kind of a wacky ingredeint), here's some others to consider:

the King's Ghost (I wonder if they would figure out whose idea that was?)
A sports match
Insanity
Cursed Anything(No curses, remember?)
Non Sequiter
Death Incarnate


I realize these are alot of ideas, My favorites are probably Divine Intervention (too easy to use badly) and Non Sequiter (aren't most Iron DM entries non sequiters?), but Death Incarnate and a Sports match also work. It's all up to the judge...

I'll use Divine Intervention; Thanks!

[Nifft]

* Calm before the storm

All right, so far we've got:
Awakened Elephant (courtesy of Nemmerle)
Rat Bastard (courtesy of Wulf)
Divine Intervention (courtesy of Macbeth)
Calm before the storm (courtesy of Nifft)

and as an alternate,
Smiling Doppelganger (courtesy of Piratecat).

One or two more, and we're good to go! Especially sought: a location and an object.

Location?
