Now, that's enough in a sentence to start giggles. Imagine said hobbit trapped in a triangular room no more than 10' on a side. With a minor monster of some sort, the which I can no longer remember.He uses the wand. He rolls lightning bolt. Remember how lightning bolt bounced off walls back then? And was 60' long? I think he hit himself at least 4 times... We found his poor corpse hours later, fried to a crisp, with the monster dead at his feet. We left the wand there!Another scenario, in a much more recent campaign, involved a catfolk rogue diving into a cenote in a temple. At the bottom were two well-macerated bodies, held down only by the nets that had been thrown in with them when they were sacrificed. The player was totally baffled when I told him his character had to make multiple rolls to avoid being sickened, avoid drowning/choking in his own vomit, and then avoid catching a disease from exposing his (open!) wounds to the toxins in the water...</blockquote>
