What would YOU do for a Klondike ba....

...er I mean Experience Level?

A friend and I are in a bi-weekly D&D game, where the other players are two or three levels ahead of us. However, this group has a long standing arrangement that ANY player can instantly be raised one level IF they go outside to the sidewalk, and howl like a wolf for thirty seconds straight.

Well, I was a 2nd level character, and at the end of the session just made 3rd, and the GM had made a single fatal mistake in his plan...

I HAVE NO SHAME!

I was out the door, coaxing and convincing my friend to join me (I'd have done it alone, but he needed the experience level ) and then jumped up on the wall in front of the sidewalk, then on top of the pedestal that sands on either side of the parking lot entrance. With the other players giggling and laughing away, we began.

ARRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!

To be honest, I reveled in it! Yeah the people on the street either looked at us like we were crazy, or didn't look at us at all but moved noticeably faster, but I howled and howled like a madman, and I enjoyed it

And now I'm 4th level Now the GM has to think of something even MORE embarassing the next time a player wants to catch up with the pack in EPs.


So what would YOU do for an extra Experience Level?

Hmm....that does sound like fun...

I'm not sure I'd do it, but it sounds like fun...

I'd wrestle a non-declawed cat into a wastebasket.

OK, I'll bite...WHY a wastebasket?

I have the "Peeps for Eeps" program: eat a stale Peep from a previous Easter, get an undefined amount of experience points. The older the Peep, the more xp gained.

Last year a battle went poorly, and a player ended up eating one that was more than two years old just to hedge his bets.

My standing house rule is: Buy the DM a new car, your character is automatically level 20. I've never had any takers.

What kind of an area do you live in? If your neighbors found out why you were howling, they might have cause for concern.

Evil! Evil I say!!! (pass the Peeps please )

If you wrestled my cat (who is not declawed) barehanded, that definitely deserves a level, if not more. Bad kitty!

No one's tried to rules-lawyer by bringing a few Hot Wheels?

Make that, "... into the toilet..." and you got yourself a level.

See, if you were a real RBDM, you'd make the players *pay* XP *not* to have to eat one. Those things are disgusting and nasty when they are fresh....

You be quiet, Rodrigo!

Peeps are the world's most perfect food ...
