[QUOTE="Glade Riven, post: 5473289, member: 86468"] I ran a little roadside bit I call "The Feastinghouse of Mad Thom." [I]As you round the bend, you see a wooden hall up on a nearby hill with sounds of merry making coming from within. As you knock upon the door, you are invited into the hall to join in the celebration. A jolly fat little man at the head of the table invites you to sit down and eat, while musical instruments appear to play themselves in the background.[/I] In short, the hall was filled with fairies. Eating the food made people sleepy, and the next day, those who ate the food found themselves changed into goblins. Complete with stat change. There were a bunch of checks to see whether or not there was an issue. As there was a rather common bard song about the Feastinghouse of Mad Thom, that was the first check. A save to notice "hey, there's something odd here," a save to avoid falling asleep, a save to see if you wake up before they cast permanancy on you... The Bard and the (lawful stupid, played to the hilt) Paladin wised up, everyone else ate, fell asleep, and became goblins. The bard roleplayed the fay into not casting permanancy, 3/4 of the party was turned into goblins for 24 hours. It was the first time I pre-rolled for character so that I could have a bit of narrative flow, but the bard could have stopped the whole thing at any time. [/QUOTE]
