Message: <blockquote data-quote="wlmartin" data-source="post: 5620358" data-attributes="member: 6679380">Everyone has a moment in D&D they remember that sticks out more than others.Mine is split between either1 : My High School D&D Group had a house rule that when a player dropped to 0 HP regardless of if they died or were revived, they would suffer a maiming. The maiming was something damaging that happened to their body that had an effect on them from that moment on. Each player (and the DM) would pick an effect and the die would roll, whereever it landed the effect stuck. Such effects included "Lost an eye, -1 to hit" or "Now a unic, -1 charisma" .. as the PC involved you also had a stake and could have your roll be something like "Now has a terrible scar that looks like the holy symbol of his religion, +1 to all rolls to do with Cleric Spells"I always found a way to get to 0 hp more than anyone else so it came up for me more than anything but this was always a fun moment in the session when we got to roll for maiming2 : My wizard PC (again in High School) rolled for his familar. He did it at a time when one of the more experienced players took over from our DM as a guest DM (our DM was the German Teacher, an adult!). We encountered a baby white dragon and the guest DM decided that this white dragon was now my familiar!!It was very funny going into to town with a white dragon as a pet, I made some extra coin by selling his poo to the local farms but ultimately since it would have been massively game breaking once it started to mature, as well as 100% unrealistic he got swapped out for a wolf. Regardless, I owned my very own White Dragon - not many people can say that.I would have to say the 2nd one is more memorable but the 1st one was equally as fun as it really brought the group together.What is yours?</blockquote>
