[QUOTE="Wombat, post: 5805972, member: 8447"] Back when I was running a 3.whatever comedy campaign, I had an NPC that my players developed a peculiar (...that is probably the best word for it...) fascination with. His name was Zimbastian. He was a gnome inventor who got in trouble with the Hobbit Mafia. He had a bad Peter Lorre accented voice, was usually deeply depressed, loved his Mommy, and just was an all around hard luck case. He was supposed to be a one-off character ... until the players decided to take him under their wing and save him. Now due to circumstances, by saving him the whole party was banished from the city ... which is where Zimbastian's Mommy lived ... and they couldn't take her with them ... so poor little Zimbastian was still alive, but could never see his Mommy again, and he ended up constantly whinging about it. But the party kept him around as a mascot and complaining good luck piece. That campaign was years ago. Somehow everyone from the gang still ends up talking about Zimbastian... [/QUOTE]
