[QUOTE="theemrys, post: 3023027, member: 25516"] We had one YEARS ago... 1e days... the party was decending into the depths and encountered a lich. They fought hard and won, but were sealed in a cavern with no way out. The player who normally played the cleric wasn' t there (running late), so one of the other players was playing that character that day. Deciding they were out of options, they called out to St. Cuthburt for divine intervention.. I rolled and got the 1%... St. Cuthburt himself arrives to the summons. The party begs and pleads to be freed from the cavern and the deity grants it, but puts a geas on each of them to tithe 50% of what they get from the adventure to his church. At this point, the party dwarf comes forward. This dwarf had a bad habit of mocking and assaulting the cleric in the party. He steps up and states "While you're here, can you identify these potions for me?" There was silence around the table... In the end, I laid a BUNCH of geas and quests on him so he could serve the church for a LONG LONG time... When the player arrived who plays the cleric, the others started to fill him in... His first reaction was that they should have just stayed and died instead of bothering his God... he was mortified! Then... they told him about the dwarf. I thought I'd nearly have a fight between players on hand... It was quite the memorable experience. [/QUOTE]
