[QUOTE="ChaosEvoker, post: 1986347, member: 27189"] As a player: Ah my very first character......Vorramion Xiloscient. He was converted from 2E into 3E. We were aobut lv 18 and we were trying to get some items that we were destined to have. Anyway the scene went something like this: DM: You see a gargantuan worm wrapped around the enourmous columns in this large room. It is a deep purple color with a pink underbelly, its mouth is filled with many a row of sharp teeth. It doesn't seem to notice your entrance Me: Alright knowldege(nature) to see what it is. DM: Alright go ahead. Me: I got a total of ## (some high number this was a long time ago) DM: Alright you remember that this is a Fiendworm. Me: Aww crap, this thing is like CR 24 or something like that. Well we have to go through here, might as well take the surprise attack. I'm shooting it with an arrow. DM: Roll your attack roll. Me: (20) YES!! (The DM is watching the rolls after this one) DM: Alright see if you verify. Me: (20) ....WOOT! Alright. (We are playing with an instant kill variant for only 3 20s in a row) DM: ....Alright rolls your instant kill check. Me: *not expecting too much* (20) ................................ DM: ..................... Everyone: ........................... DM: It....dies. Everyone: .......................... DM: *withotu words get the DMG opens it up and begins flipping though, we sit in silence waiting to see what he says* DM: ChaosEvoker (he used my name IRL here) you gain 14,750 XP. Everyone: ................. Belesarius: (yes the one that just joined) THAT WAS AWESOME! Me: YES!!!!! Everyone: *general amusement and celebration* Ah good times...fortunatly it ended well though the um level balance of the party was slightly off for a while, since I went to lv 19. (and was close to 20) BUt its not often that a lv 18 character instantly kills a CR 24 or higher monster. so there's my story.... [/QUOTE]
