[QUOTE="Three_Haligonians, post: 2000931, member: 19546"] [b]A blue pillow,[/b] My group has "Blue Pillows" : In which a player takes two totally coincedental pieces of information and creates a convoluted conspiracy theory. It came from one of my first serious campaigns, the party had just defeated some minions of the BBEG and started to loot the area, which was an abandoned nobles house. I described the treasure they found including a few gems resting on what I had said was a "blue satin pillow". A couple of sessions later, after they had defeated the BBEG and were in the next adventure, they defeated some more enemies and without thinking about it (It was weeks later) I said that part of the treasure (I think it was a magic item) was sitting on a blue pillow. One player (it's actually T of Three Haligonians if you want to mock her later) picked up on this and became convinced that it was all part of a conspiracy and that the original BBEG had returned as she started to look for more ways to connect what they were doing with what they had done until the other players talked her down. However, the "Blue Pillow" stuck and now whenever a player starts to make far-fetched connections, another will use it to get them to step back and try again. J from Three Haligonians [/QUOTE]
