[QUOTE="Dannyalcatraz, post: 5101565, member: 19675"] Alright- this is a thread devoted to sharing the funny things that happen when we're playing RPGs. It could be the results of unlikely die rolls, funny quips- in or out of character- or what have you. I'll start with one that happened in our last session. Our party was searching a torture chamber when we encountered a Mohrg- we released it from an iron maiden in which it had been trapped.* The Mohrg lept out and grappled the human fighter standing in front of the iron maiden, paralyzing him with its first strike. My Geomancer failed to turn it while the Dwarf Fighter moved into position to hit it, and the rest of the party maneuvered to help out their stricken comrade. It didn't fight back- it just grappled the fighter. Just as the Mohrg was about to die from the party's assault, it flung the motionless fighter into the iron maiden and slammed it shut. At this point, I said "And he's so tough, he didn't flinch- not a quiver! And he didn't even make a noise, either!" (Laughter ensued.) After we defeated the Mohrg, we began to search. The Wizard's player said, "I search the iron maiden- what do I find?" Before the DM could respond, I replied, "Well, there's a human fighter in there..." (Laughter ensued, and after I was called "something anatomical" by the fighter's player, more laughter ensued.) * In all fairness, we had figured it was some kind of undead, but were not clear on the details...we just wanted whatever magic it had and figured we could take whatever. This anecdote brought to you by [I]GREED[/I], one of the Seven Deadly Sins! [/QUOTE]
