    Whenever I played D&D we always carried a door with us in Dungeons.
    Very handy.
    Pit trap. Door over it
    Injured player, door stretcher
    Too loot, carry it on the door.
    Need to block a doorway. Erm, door?
    Had a new DM that told me I couldn't take the first door we came to.
    I pointed out that between a Dwarf and a Thief I'm sure that getting a door of its hinges...

    Suzi was the goblin.
    She was also under an employment contract to the wizard and you had to head to Freeport (Green Ronin Publishing, modified slightly) because under Freeport law all slaves were freed the moment they touched it's shores. Also it was the largest city that didn't hold any kind of speciest laws so a Minotaur or a goblin were as welcome as a halfing or a dwarf as long as they had money.
    The fourth player was Stephanie who I'm sure was the rogue because no one else was a rogue and Stephanie was still Stephanie.
    The gem had magical effects that meant when used for casting spells I rolled on two/three tables. One to determine what metamagic feat was put on the holder's spell, and one that determine what the other table would be. Because table two was just a list of every random table every published in an official 3.5 book other than wandering monster tables.
    Which is how she got a third arm (that she didn't control), and antlers, and how one time her eyeball shot out of her damn head and turned in to magic missiles that did max damage.
    As for the cultists who stole holy symbols I don't think you ever learned that in game other than that they worshiped a god of mischief. The Paladin left the party when she drew two cards from a Deck of Many Things and was reduced to level one but declared the new ruler of Freeport.
    Why was the deck there? Because one of the cultists was using it to play solitaire.
    Pro-tip for the Lazy Deity: Cults of Trickery don't need a reason if it makes things weird.
    ...
    I hope it's Reverse Dungeon next because I love the World's Greatest Trap although if the Witch Queen is who I think it is that's a good one, too.

      No lie, Stephanie always got the least interesting stories because her attitude that she was the main character in a solo computer RPG annoyed me so I deliberately put less focus on her. Whereas your attitude that you were the coolest character in an ensemble cast was rewarded because you were interesting for everyone at the table.
      Does this make me a bad person? No.
      Does this make me a bad GM? Yeah probably.
      That and my know crystallized hatred of any story that revolves around someone being the most important person in The Universe TO The Universe. I've really lost my taste for narcissism even in fiction.

    Captain I would love to make this character cannon in a dnd game I am currently running, with your permission of course. It is a game for new players who don't know that you can just have normal stuff to help with situations. With your permission I would love to give them "The Knapsack of Theo Bane" a simple bag of holding with the inscription "Hands off my stuff" on the main flap. When you reach into the sack and attempt to retrieve something you did not put in, there is a chance you will find what you are looking for. it this alright with you/would you want this done differently?

    • @CaptainXavier
      @CaptainXavier  3 года назад +1

      I dig it! Theobane is one word but other than that I dig it! Throw in an even smaller chance that instead of finding the item they need they take 1 pt of force damage (that feels like a slap on their hand) and 1 point of sonic damage as a booming voice from within the bag yells "I SAID HANDS OFF MY STUFF!" :P
