[QUOTE="Richards, post: 8396914, member: 508"] Kind of - in my last campaign, the very first adventure had the 1st-level PCs checking out a farmhouse and finding indications that yuan-ti had been there (they left shed skin in the barn where they killed the mule). Later adventures over the 20-level campaign had them encounter these three "sonic yuan-ti"; what they believed to be an incredibly underpowered aspect of Yeenoghu; a jackalope; a strange man with mental powers who had an invisible, flying worm as a riding mount; a humanoid construct devoted to the physical well-being of humans; and eventually a small girl who only spoke telepathically. It turned out all of these creatures had come through the same regularly-recurring rift in the fabric of reality connecting Oerth with Gamma Terra, the campaign world of the Gamma World game. The "sonic yuan-ti" were hissers (mutant snakes with humanoid torsos and arms); "Yeenoghu" was an ark (a 9-foot-tall humanoid dog-man); the jackalope was a hopper without that race's normal chameleon fur; the man with the invisible worm was a serf riding a blight; the humanoid construct was a medical android; and the little girl was a mutant serf. All of this was eventually made clear towards the end of the campaign, when the mutant girl led the PCs back to her home world to "rescue" six "superheroes" according to a precognitive prophecy she'd glimpsed - but which really entailed the PCs inheriting the combat armor and mechs of the superheroes and bringing them back to Oerth.
