[QUOTE="Moff_Tarkin, post: 1319098, member: 14175"] I had a little argument with my DM. I said he was making stuff up, he said it just worked out that way. I want some outside opinions. Our party has been having problems with this nilbog, if you don’t know what that is just consider it a nasty goblin. Anyway, we were traveling when our druid (in bird form) spots a large group of goblins coming toward us. Before they arrive I cast invisibility and use my wings of flying to fly 90 feet strait up. The first round of combat I cast fireball from 90 feet up, and on his turn, the invisible nilbog appears above me as he trows a net of snaring over me, toppling me to the ground (I survived by the way) I thought this attack was too perfect to be coincidence. The party has faced the nilbog many times before and he as never demonstrated the ability to fly. He just happened to be flying 90 feet above the combat. He just happened to be close enough to me to get above me and attack all on the first round. He just happened to have the perfect magical item to send a winged wizard to his doom. BTW, this net was an item he said he had taken out of an old book; he said that he couldn’t remember what it did exactly so he was making up the rules for it. I challenged him to show me the sheet with the nilbogs equipment, there is none, he is just winging it. Maybe I’m just seeing things, but this seems to fit into place a bit to perfectly, I think the DM was making up a cheesy way to get the flying wizard. Now I know a DM can say and do whatever he wants, but that’s not the issue here. I just want to know how other people view this scenario. [/QUOTE]
