[QUOTE="Croaker, post: 539696, member: 2964"] DM: An army of ten thousand orcs blankets the slopes of Helm's Deep, their hundreds of torches shedding a fell l-- PC2: Yadda yadda yadda...enough flavor text. Let's get to the hacking! PC3: What? There's orcs? I can't see! >several rounds of arrow storms later...< DM: A big, mostly naked orc with a sparkly torch is running towards the wall. PC1: Uh-oh! An NPC with a description! Shoot him! PC3: Weren't there like, 2,000 orcs with torches? What's so special about this one? PC2: I blast him! Twang twang twang!!! (rolls) Hah! A threat! (rolls again) Crit! Take that, running man! 51 points! PC3: I mean, what's so special about this one? Is he gonna start the Orcolympics? DM: (panicking) Umm, he staggers slightly, but keeps running. PC1: Doesn't he have to make a save against death from massive damage? PC2: Don't worry, what with Rapid Shot and my Twangmaster Orcslaying Longbow of Speed +12, I have, like, 3 more shots. (rolls, and rolls some more) Hot dang! Two more crits!! You're going down, orc-boy! 54 and 61, that's 115 points! PC3: I mean, what's so special about this one torch? How sparkly is it? And come to think of it, didn't you say it was raining? How are all these torches still burning? PC1: Shut up, dwarf! It's vital that we stop this one, because this is the one the DM described! Don't forget, that two more saves against massive damage. DM: (flustered and angry) Well, he makes all three saves, and despite having three arrows buried to the feathers in neck, he's setting a new record for the 100 yard dash!
