[QUOTE="Daniel Knight, post: 8609, member: 1113"] Okay… this occurred during the Beneath the Twisted Tower adventure that came with the 2nd Forgotten Realms box set. I was DM. [B]DM:[/B] Okay, you come into a small sweltering cavern with a large bubbling crystal clear pool dominating its centre. There is a stone bridge spanning from one side to the other, but it glistens with moisture caused by the condensation of the pool’s heat. [B]Player 1:[/B] Oooh! I’m a half dragon, I’m immune to natural heat… I jump into the pool and swim to the other side ignoring the bridge. [B]DM:[/B] Cool. You jump in and easily make it to the other side. Your clothes are now sopping wet though. [B]Player 2:[/B] Hey cool. I’m a half aquatic-elf, I’ll dive in too! [I](Players all stare at Player 2)[/I] [B]DM:[/B] Perhaps you didn’t hear me when I was describing the room… [B]Player 2:[/B] Nah, I heard you. I’m half aquatic so I dive in. [B]DM:[/B] Look, are really sure about this? I don’t think you’ve thought this through… [I](Player 2 looks at the other players staring at him as if he’s mad)[/I] [B]Player 2:[/B] So, do I make it to the other side? [B]DM:[/B] Walking across the platform? [B]Player 2:[/B] No swimming! Have you been listening to me at all? [B]Player 1:[/B] Sigh… I jump back in and fish his body out. What items did he have?
