[QUOTE="Halivar, post: 4436754, member: 9327"] The setting: The Seventh Layer of Hell, in the citadel of Black Bulvaie, a blackguard of indeterminate level (I never did find out) with a sentient "evil unholy avenger". The backstory: My character (a Ftr10/planar champion 6 from MotP), in a one-on-one session outside the group, has been captured while trying to get his hands on a sentient holy avenger to give another party member as a birthday present. The character's and the player's Wisdom scores are pretty low. Having personally cut-down the citadel's half-dragon guards and many of its draconic guardians, Black Bulvaie decides to replenish his guards by way of my own character's stock. The humiliation factor for my character (and for me) is pretty high, as my defiant monologue is ignored and cut short, and my character is... for lack of a better term... raped by some dragons. (ANGER.... RISING.... CAN'T.... CONTROL....) The next session, the rest of the party springs me (and calls me an idiot), and we march off to face Black Bulvaie in his inner sanctum. THE CROWNING MOMENT OF AWESOME: DM: Black Bulvaie stands there, with his shimmering black blade. "Fools," he says, "Tiamat will--" Me: I run up and sunder his blade. DM: What? Hold on, wait a second. Me: No. I'm letting him finish his monologue. I'm running up and sundering his weapon. DM: Huh? Oh, well, roll initiative. Me: 27. DM: *scratches head* Umm... you're [I]sundering[/I] it? How does that even work? *Everyone looks up a never-before-used rule* DM: Alright, now you know this things got bonuses out the butt right? Me: Ok... *rolls dice* will a 45 hit it? DM: *rolls eyes* Yes. Roll for damage. Me: *rolls dice* *adds bonuses for 5 minutes* Over 150 damage. How much do I need? DM: *slaps face* Me: Hey, unarmed attacks provoke, right? It is my Crowning D&D Moment of Awesome. My character comes back from humiliation and pwns the BBEG before the first round of combat. [/QUOTE]
