[QUOTE="Mal Malenkirk, post: 5386991, member: 834"] Back in the glorious 2nd edition day, I loved using the random magic item table. That's how my PCs landed a knife +3 at level 4 during a Dragonlance campaign. A knife, not a dagger! It was their most potent magic for a long time and was put to many hilarious use. It was lost duing plane traveling mishaps. It has then resurfaced in every single Dragonlance campaign I have run (and I ran many). Always as a knife (1d3!) never a dagger, even if the edition I was running had no knifes. The players called it 'The Butter knife' because it cuts everything like butter. And I can't count the number of conversation we had trying to determine under what circumstances someone might want to enchant cutlery. Another running gag is that whenever, in whatever system, the PCs need a guide and find a guy named 'Gerard', they know they are going to get completely lost. Every time. DM: You found a guide. Looks like a capable man and he leads you into the mountains toward castle Grimm. PC: ''What's your name, dude?'' NPC:''Gerard.'' Players OOC: Aaawww man... We're Never reaching castle Grimm, right? You didn't feel like running a dungeon and we are doing a wilderness adventure instead?''¸ DM: Yep. [/QUOTE]
