[QUOTE="rexartur, post: 2105624, member: 3258"] [b]Volunatry disband[/b] Voluntary disband -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Possible Spoiler Alert!!!!!!!! Not exactly a voluntary TPK, but I was running a group though the old Temple of Elemental Evil (converted to 3.0, at the time). They had this great concept of being performers (strongman, acrobat, geek, etc.), but motivation to explore was a bit of a hassle. Their name? Frog in a Frog Productions. This was applied after a battle near the moathouse with some giant frogs. One of the frogs swallowed a party member, and a second, hungry and not bright frog, swallowed the first frog (I think he crit missed his target or some such thing.) Anywho, on to the Temple proper.
