[QUOTE="Big Jake, post: 1691316, member: 19203"] I was a player. My character was a human fighter TANK... the DM watched as I rolled an 18 00!! (He said it was the first time he actually saw anyone roll a 00.) I had just arrived in Korea, December 1992, so we were playing 2 ed. The party had already completed the moathouse, so I missed that. (I have vague memories of a frog encounter in a game back in 1986... that might have be VoH, but I never knew the names of the adventures back then.) The most memorable experiences for me: I set off a trap that killed one of our rogues and the party magic-user. (No one got mad... I think they wanted new characters anyways.) So we split up their stuff, and I ended up with an evil-aligned intelligent longsword that fairly quickly turned me to evil (the only evil character I ever played). I almost got killed by a purple curtain thingy. The cleric prepared remove disease and saved my life (but not my left arm). I almost killed our party Kender, whom I affectionately called a midget elf... the player kept getting really mad at me, but he kept taking my stuff... I mean, he kept, um finding my things that I must have left unattended and could have been stolen by someone who meant to do us harm, and what a good thing that he happened to find it just sitting there (in my backpack, but don't change the subject) before anyone else did, so I should be more careful. Don't worry, you don't have to say thanks! Come to think of it, he role-played the Kender better than anyone else I've ever seen. [/QUOTE]
