[QUOTE="Stalker0, post: 8299343, member: 5889"] Tons. Just last night we had a big one. So when the big villain was revealed (this was a one shot game), he threw down the corpse of his nemesis, one of the previous heroes from the last one shot I ran. During the fight (which was in a high up clock tower), one of the party members turned the body into a ghoul. Well I couldn't have it be just any ghoul (as it was a former player character), so it was the undead form of the hero back to action! The main villain was tossed into a cloudkill, and the ghoul leaped after him. Just as the villain was moving to get out, the ghoul managed to grapple him (using the house rule), pulling him back in the cloud. A round later, as the villain had gotten further beat up, a big hole in the wall had opened up. The villain was about to throw down, so the Hero Ghoul pulled him cinematically up to his face, shouted out "I'll meet you in hell!" and hurled them both through the hole and off the ledge (using the half move rule of grappling). Hero and Villain died together, with rip roaring applause! [/QUOTE]
