Now this Sucks

[maddman75]

Can't believe I missed the million.

Levers. MUST PULL LEVERS!

You can put a lever in a dungeon with a sign over it that says "PULL LEVER FOR TRAP" and someone will have to pull it. I've tested this theory with good results.

As others have said, this turn of events seems reasonable to me. Splitting off on your own in a dungeon setting is a less-than-intelligent course of action. Doubly so if you start pulling levers in what is obviously a trap. What causes you to say that it sucks?

Momentary hijack -- hey, Green Slime! I got your email, but my email back to you bounced. Please drop me a line with your current email address, if you don't mind.

Thanks. Back to the thread!

Please tell me this campaign started as "A Samurai, A Psychic and a Ninja Necromancer walk into a bar".

Ninjas and Pirates vs. Vikings and Cannibals. Who wins?

Nodwick never answered that question for me.

As for the rest of it. Levers are there to be pulled. Buttons pushed. The bauble lifted off of the display. The gong to be rung, the candle to be lit and the bell to be rang. It's D&D, not an Archological Dig simulation.

Never split off from the rest of your party in a dungeon no matter how many scoobie snacks are offered!

You haven't met Crothian, have you?

Never ALWAYS split off from the rest of your party in a dungeon no matter how many scoobie snacks are offered!

IamTheTest I will gladly send you one million dollars, but first I need you to send me a mere $5000 for fees to transfer the money out of my Nigerian bank.

Please tell me what you think of this

It sounds like a classic 1e dungeon to me (and classic 1e dungeon crawling behaviour too)

Cheers

Please tell me what you think of this because on one hand it kinda was a stupid decision, but I ended up being a really good thing so here's what happened well the group was trying to get into this tower that was protected by a force feild all the around it like a bubble but they were told of a hidden entrence under it so they went in and it was an old school dungeon and they were about half way through when they came to a room. The room was filled with junk and ruble, there was a tunnel dug across the back of the room and the tunnel kept going in bolth ways the ninja necromancer and psychic wanted to go down the tunnel and the samurai wanted to search the room the rest of the group left down the tunnel but the samurai searched the room. As the group got a little ways down the tunnel the samurai found a secret door and he went in. The group got to the end of the tunnel and found two owl bears and started fighting them as they did, the samurai found a way down to a lower level he went down and found a room with two force feilds that seperated the room into three sections and he would have to lower bolth force feilds to get to the hall on the other side of the room in each section there was a lever so he pulls the first lever and the first force feild drops he walks in and has a bad feeling about this but pulls the next lever anyway the first force feild pops back up and these sprinklers come out of the ceiling and start spraying acid. The samurai starts to panick and pushes the lever back up but nothing happens he take 4 points of damage so he stars looking for another way out but there wasn't 4 more points he starts to search the walls for any way out as he takes 4 more points of damage. But as he was looking around he found a secret lever up near the ceiling, but about this time the level of acid has gotten a little above knee high and he takes 11 points of damage because he is walking through acid so he pulls the lever and the second force wall droped and the sprinklers stoped the acid washed out the samurai relived walked down the hall and found a door that he didn't have the key too so he just sat there and rested. Well in a little bit the rest of the party got down the the room with the force walls and they sent the ninja in so he pulled the lever and the acid started spraying but the rest of the party pulled the first lever so it droped the first force wall and the acid stoped well this goes on for the next few mins and finaly the samurai walked back and pulled the threrd lever and droped the second force feild so the group could get past and then they opend the door with the key they got before and continued on with the game please let me know what you think with that thank you.

Breathe man, breathe! You're going to pass out!

Welcome to the forums, looks like you had a good time, but please break up your narrative a wee bit, it makes it much more likely that people will read it.

Most DM's have favorite moments of saving a game from becoming a complete disaster, so we know how you feel.
