[QUOTE="Wik, post: 4631191, member: 40177"] My personal favourite is when we were running a homebrew system (sort of Omega World d20 with d20 Apocalypse, with homemade classes and powers thrown in) set in a post-apocalyptic future. There were three PCs - a former raider mercenary who had a double-barrelled shotgun and a tough suit of carbon resin armour, a chain-smoking mechanic who was in love with his modded El Camino, and a tanned scout who had adopted Native American Customs wholesale (she would never shut up about them). The PCs had heard about a cursed area in the hills, said to be home to some excellent machine equipment - it used to be a mine shaft. So, they drive up, the scout in the lead. Scout gets jumped by Plague Zombies - think [i]28 Days Later[/i] - and tries to hold them at bay. The group has three plague zombie shots (they give you a second saving throw), but they know they can't get there in time. Not knowing if she's been hit or not, the mechanic takes out his machine gun and takes the crowd out - including the scout. But things get worse. More zombies start rushing out of the woods. The Warrior has already got out of the car to get to the bullet-ridden body of the scout when the zombies rush, and he's a little surprised to see the El Camino (with the zombie shots) pull away in a panic. Luckily, he is able to keep the two zombies that attack him away with some well-placed shotgun blasts. Not so lucky for the Mechanic. Two zombies jump on the back of the car, and another breaks through the windshield, bleeding profusely. The mechanic gets clawed. Multiple times. The warrior gets there, shotgun ready (and quite panicked by now). "The mechanic's arm is bloody, and he looks at you nervously" I say. "Did he make his save?" The warrior and mechanic ask at once (I make the saves in secret here, and I rolled... a 3 or something) "He begins to twitch uncontrollably" "I blast him in the head with my shotgun. At point blank." "But there are zombie shots in the ba-" the mechanic begins. "[i]At Point Blank[/i]". Fun times. [/QUOTE]
