The entire group is made up of various races, alignments and classes. I only remember the LG Paladin, as we were always fighting, even though we had both been compelled to complete the quest together.Approaching the end, we come across the BBEG's Second in Command, leading a large number of various henchbeings. It looks to be a long, protracted battle with a very doubtful outcome for us. But, being the snotty, arrogant Illrigger that I was, I call for a Parley. The DM, rather bemused, concedes the the SiC will meet me to parley, expecting me to surrender. Of course, I don't. Instead, I challenge the SiC to a duel, mano-a-mano. He agrees. We begin the battle. I win initiative. I call Head Shot.Best Natural 20 of my life. Especially with the Natural 100 (Slashing weapon - Opponent Decapitated) I rolled on the old Critical Hits & Fumbles Chart from another Best of Dragon issue.The look on my DM's face - priceless.   <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f60e.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":cool:" title="Cool    :cool:"  data-smilie="6"data-shortname=":cool:" /></blockquote>
