[QUOTE="drakhe, post: 212740, member: 4930"] [b]Some more heroics[/b] How about these: One campaign, I was playing one part of a woodelf twin. We were the last survivors of our tribe (massacered by Zhentarim) So one time we had to run fast being chased by a hunting party with warhounds and all. My sister/twin decides to try and hide in a tree (being wood-elf and all) but does so in plain view of our persuers. Naturaly the three HUGE warhounds are barking up the tree. To try and get herself out of the situation, she gets out her rope, throws it towards another tree and swings tarzan like ... or so she tried. Off course she falls to the ground (the rope didn't even have a noose or a loop or somethin) and gets COMPLETE ripped to bits by the warhounds. (point of note, this was our very first session of a new campaign!) In that same campaign, I also get to do my silly bit. Imagine a wizards tower WITH THE DOOR OPEN ! Since I was a rogue/sorcerer, I wanted to talk the wizard into teaching me some stuff. So silly me wanders off into the tower (rest of the party getting themselves installed in the local inn) and snoop arround.

So there's no harm in touching the mirror right ? Well, Ishkla Waterbirch is still running after that dog inside the mirror Or me again in another campaign (this time Warhammer) I play a scrawny, puny, skinny fellow that has a habit of stooping.
