[QUOTE="Wycen, post: 5669480, member: 13732"] If we've ever missed a dragon hoard it was because the risk wasn't worth the reward or something like that. We killed some of Tiamat's consorts and going after the hoard seemed like a bad idea. But in a game I ran, the players forgot an artifact. It was my own fault for borrowing the campaign of somebody else, who was now a player while I played in his sandbox. One of the campaign rules was "if you die it takes more than a spell and expensive component to bring a character back to life". But I didn't want myself and the group to worry about character death as much, especially since it was a high level game. So as a reward in the first battle I threw in a torc which acted like an Amulet of Life Protection (this was 3E). I told the wizard Identify would not identify an artifact and expected Legend Lore or something else would be the first activity for the next session. Well, that never happened and I once made an oblique reference to it, but still they never remembered. I should have just shoved the whole death is near permanent thing, but oh well. [/QUOTE]
