[QUOTE="Kae'Yoss, post: 2977508, member: 4134"] I knew that one. Our druid used it a couple of times. Since he started with 18 con (lucky bastard rolled 2 18's*), it wasn't easy breaking his concentration, so the spell would usually fire off (and most of the time, the other guy had no SR). Switch creeping doom with finger of death or power word kill and the story's golden again. I remember something I first thought was stupid: My party went through City of the Spider Queen, and found that fiend caged in a circle (for the resident archmage to extort for favours. The fiend launches into his best sales pitch, promising them everything if they let him go (while not intending to give them anything but death). I was just saying something like "Let me go and I give you whatever you want" and I just hear "I'd like to order something." I think my face fell off my head! Turns out that one player thought this a great time to call pizza delivery... *after the campaign ended, I almost begged the DM to use point buy. I said: "that character was dominating like there's no tomorrow. Nothing against the player - he was a great player - but it should be more even." DM refused. Guess who was next in line to have 2 18s for his character. The funniest part: It was 20Modern, so increasing stats wasn't. After that, we used point buy :D [/QUOTE]
