To get a more accurate gauge on character reactions to this, what you need to do is use props. When you mention that a monster's treasure is lodged inside of a turd, what you need to do is place a large, steaming turd on the table. Observe the reactions of the players. If you, personally, cannot stand this idea, use a realistic-looking rubber one, but lodge a tasty candy treat within it...and see if any of the players attempt to extract it.

Remember: Props always make for a more entertaining session.

Okay, let's make this just a touch more palatable. Oatmeal and food coloring are your friends Make up some very stiff oatmeal, dyed brown. Looks awful, but is completely non-nasty in reality.

I have run Paranoia far, far too many times...

reminds me of my days in an enteric lab.

I'm going to have to use that with my dragons.

"At this age dragons start hunting. In medieval times careless knights sometimes ended up on the menu, and dragons of this age were in the habit of ingesting everything, producing what became known as, 'chainballs'. Wads of chainmail and other objects that had to be coughed up since they couldn't go through the G.I. tract.

"Even today dragons this young tend to eat too fast, and in their eagerness tend to forgot what they were taught by their parent or parents.The resulting regurgitated mess is refered to as a, 'chainball".

In the words of many a player, "Never give a GM ideas."

Oh, this is so stolen.
Makes for a great starter idea also. "Where did this ball of metal come from anyway?"

Would you care to see the stats on Daern's Instant Outhouse?

I'd care to see that, and a whole lot MORE of your "Orczes" adventure - the one you promised to write up and send me sometime, oh great gung-master.

Cautiously, the adventurers creep through the dark shadowy lair of Zurifax, the Blue Dragon....

"HURGH...HURGH..."

"what's that noise?"

"HURGH...HURGH..."

"I don't know..."

"HURGH... HACK!" *bang*bangbangbang*rattlerattle*

i have some real in the trenches horror stories from my days in a clinical/research lab if you want them.

they involve vaccine trials with cholera, e.coli, typhoid, and dysentery.

i was/am the King of PooP.

That'd be "gong", not gung. And, as illustrated by this thread, I'm far from the "master".

But I'll see if I can't put together the Orcz info for you sometime. At worst, I'll hand it to you in person at NCGDIII.
