[QUOTE="Stormsparrow, post: 4758539, member: 83170"] Just last week, our party, composed of an incredibly varied and disfunctional lot of characters, stumbled upon the lair of a green dragon. The dragon seemed more than happy to barter with us and was cheerfully asking us what shiny things we might trade for macguffin in question. Unfortunately, our stab happy Paladin decides to take a poke at the poor dragon leading to a fight that should have resulted in a TPK. Somehow we make it through with only one casualty and a badly wounded rogue. Our cleric makes an attempt to heal him, only to critically fail and push him into a lake of acid. Wracked by guilt, he jumps in after him, forgetting that he doesn't know how to swim. While this is going on, the bard gets upset with the paladin and decides to convince my antisocial warlock that he is plotting against us. When the cleric, having failed to save our rogue, pulls himself from the acid water, he is greeted with the sight of his two party members murdering the paladin in cold blood. The bard, who has gone completely insane, then forces my warlock to put on a suspect necklace which subsequently possesses him with astral spirits. My warlock murders his two remaining companions, but only after desperately attempting to tear the necklace from his chest while screaming "I'm so sorry!" The cleric was his only friend. So everyone died and now my warlock is the villain of the next campaign. It was supposed to be a dungeon crawl. [/QUOTE]
