[QUOTE="wolff96, post: 2415608, member: 342"] [b]Ooops...[/b] Well, since this thread is back from the grave, I might as well toss in one. ---------------------- In a recent Eberron campaign, we were transporting refugees by airship from one location to another. We were attacked in flight by raiders on griffin-back. They landed some fighter-types near the front of the ship as a decoy (all our fighters raced to the front) and then landed their main force (and the griffins) on the rear deck of the ship. While the mooks at the front tied up our main fighters, the real threat moved immediately to secure their objective -- a severely wounded paladin that was also being transported on the ship and would fetch a handsome ransom. The druid -- in his first session with the group -- cast Obscuring Mist on the rear portion of the ship. Consulting the wind tables and figuring the forward motion of the ship, the DM ruled that it would obscure the back part of the ship for three rounds. The druid then made a phenomenal listen check to pinpoint an enemy... and then tried to BULLRUSH THE ENEMY OFF THE SHIP. He missed the enemy wizard in the fog. So the DM allowed him to try and hit the giant griffon that was just behind the wizard... and he MISSED AGAIN. Then he was allowed a reflex save to stop before hitting the railing. Then he was allowed a save to keep from going OVER the railing. Then he was allowed a save to try and grab the railing as he was failing. Needless to say he failed all the saving throws and plummeted to his doom. We never did find the body... -------------------- From that point, whenever any character considers a foolish action, the joke around the table is that the character is preparing to bullrush someone.
