Just decided to tell some of my outlandish and awesome tails of D&D adventures mind you some of the details are a little hazy.
The earliest recollection of adventures which I was running mind you, this was the first time we were playing dungeons and dragons it think it was third edition. Anyway the group I was playing with consisted of 1 human cleric, 1 fighter i can't remember the race something reducibly strong, 1 drawf paladin 1 halfling bard and 1 elf theif.
The first thing I did I stuck their asses in a haunted inn, well actually they had to make their way to the inn through hordes of undead. Anyway they made their way in the inn to find it pitch black and stench of death, so I made that the starecase was out with an infinite hole. The players are searching the area trying to find a way up.
The cleric made the suggestion to throw him up the stairwell with the help of the pali and fighter, something I never thought they'd think of. So I rolled my dice and he makes it, and from now on that's what they do, ledge they can't get to they throw the cleric, there's a daemon they have to fight they throw the cleric.
The guy playing the cleric I'm calling him Tom came to the conclusion that it was the worst thing to suggest because through out the campein they chuck his fucking ass at everything they find, windows, locked doors anything you can think of.
Half way through the campein they fight a devil, well not really a fight after three rounds he curses he group and runs. What the curse was is that they randomly turning to animals. I made a quest to find a genie and remove the curse, now this is hilarious because Tom he got his revenge because the genie grants only one wish that's all. So they summon the genie and right a way Tom runs up and ask the genie for a deck of everything.
Now what the deck of everything is, is a deck of 20 or 21 cards that consists of half good and half bad results like your soul gets cast eh void or you inherit a castle and a large sum of gold. So Tom gets the deck of everything and the genie vanishes right there everyone's jaw drops with murderous looks on their faces. At the same time they draw their weapons and attack Tom. Tom won the iniative and draws half the deck throwing out cards be hind him. Now drawing half the deck he had a pretty good chance to fuck himself up but now this lucky son of a bitch draws half the deck the first card was he's invisible for a round, then he's gets the castle, then he teleports 500 miles to the north. Now right there the other players there not giving up there finding this motherfucker and killing him, the last card for Tom was the void card so his soul gets cast way and dies. The rest of the party finds Tom's lifeless corpse and completely mutilates this body leavening nothing there. Tom was just laughing his ass off the whole time.
Anyway that's my first time running a D&D campien lesson learned NEVER FUCK WITH THE CLERIC

A few things, had someone get their soul sucked away to the nine hells that way. We got his soul back but he came back in the body of a girl. (DM fucking with him and not letting the negative part of the card to be undone and not negative) Second, my unconcious body was thrown at a door to open it. A door no one could open after rolling 20+ times. So they are like hell with it, we throw the theif's body at the door. (i'm the party leader who went down last battle to 3 orges at level 1-2 party) yeaaaaah. Guess what? I frinkin opened the door with my roll as almost dead body. That rogue is still alive to this day, and yes his name is Zilfer. <.< I also did an unbelievable you need a 20 to pull this off, then rolled maximum damage on an explosive arrow on the very edge of my shortbow's range. Knocked out a fuckin' wizard that had killed four of my party members. He fell 60 feet down but was lucky enough to cast feather fall. He'll die one day....

Last year I officially retired my long lasting character a level 18 Assassin, now my assassin is not the typical kill maniac an assassin is. If you ever heard of Gary Gygax then you know what's in stored. If not here's brief run down what his modules are like. Have a stack of character sheets ready because you will die a lot.
Anyway we decided to run Castle Grey Hawk, now what Castle Grey Hawk is it's basically a wizard that transcends into this world makes movies based off the D&D world.
This is where I'm not sure if Castle Greyhawk is meant to be a comedy or to be serious, I assume it's a comedy. I'm looking through the mosters there's a Beholder, Mindlayer, Thor no kidding
Now into the matter at hand, Greyhawk was unrelentless everything wanted you dead in Greyhawk there was an encounter were you fight Thor, yes fucking Thor. When you arrive in his dressing room he immedialy tosses his hammer at you which impossible to dodge mind you.
You also fight the cast of Star Trek, and their fucking impossible to fight too we lost 3 guys in the fight I somehow lived but only barley.
After everything our DM said ok you made it through Greyhawk your basically gods.
Later on I'll discuss some of my bags of dirty tricks

I'd like to be an assassin just cus..... it's just one of those "badass" things you think of when you think assassin. 3e however says you need to kill an innocent for no other reason than joining and be Evil on top of it. Zilfer just doesn't swing that way . I play him ambidexteritied, two weapon fighting / master of sneak attacking the best I can however. After 2 years of playing DnD he's still only level 7. (half that time is DMing) but you can still imagine how slow we level. Btw Deck of Many things, I've only ever drawn maybe twice and never gotten lynched so . Everyone else has horrible luck xD. Haha! >.> My level 7 Thief however is now the "Lord of Shadowdale" How does Zilfer always have the "of shadows" or something, so i've decided he's going to be a Shadowblade. Fitting I think for a Lord of Shadowdale. Just have to remember not to piss Elminister off in his home. xD

assassins are awesome but honestly they work a bit better in 4e, mostly you don't half to kill innocents.
I find any excuse to bluff, because you can be creative, hell my bard strip down to his tunic, painted himself in green paint wit ha feather bowa and walked right in the front door of a keep. Who the fuck is going to stop some stop in green pain wearing a feather bowa.
for the deck of many things (thanks for correcting me on that) never put that it a game, also never put in wishes. Players with fuck over other players.
also posted on Lok

If want all the orcs in the world to be gone. Transform those Orc's into something different. If they want someone dead, turn them... Undead. xD Many wishes can be twisted if taken literal or used with a little bit of imagination. Give them an Evil Genie sometime, see what happens! XD

Well been some time since I updated this mostly because I couldn't remember any interesting Dungeons and Dragons stories until now.
THOU SHALT NOT FUCK WITH THE LADY OF PAIN
Now before I go into this one you have to understand what the lady of pain is and where shes from. There's a DND campaign called planechase or scape one of those two. Now what it is, is basiclly the afterlife where you have all the alignments rainging from lawful good to chaotic evil where lawful good is mount Olympus and chaotic evil are the nine hells. Picture this as a pizza and each slice are the alignment planes where travailing between them could takes hours or days.
Now in the center is an infante spire and that's where the lady of pain is. Shes the guardian of his spire and if you mess with her she'll even kill you or maze in a unbeatable maze. If you see her run run the fuck away don't wave, to even look at her close as many doors as you can.
Well I had a player who decided to fuck with her doing everything he can to try to get mazed, dudes lucky I didn't decide to kill him. the player decided to play a minatour so once I mazed him he boasted on about minatours can't be lost in a maze. Now I had no idea if that was true or not but for the sake of convince I waved it an ok and the guy got out. When I done I read though several of my DND books trying to find this he couldn't pulls that shit out of his ass in case I called him out on it, the dude had to do some research. I looked at every book I had and found the entry of minatours in an old ADND book and it says not clearly mind you "minatours can not be disoriented in a maze."
The next session I did I mazed him again this time in a infinite hallway that doesn't end.
Moale of the story Don't fuck with the Lady of Pain, she's just one of few gods or really powerful beings that you can't kill. I'll later on go into further depth of Planescape and what it is.

If ya want some dnd stories, I'm sure zil and I can entertain you for a while. Most of them are a little rediculous, but *shrug* it could be worse. We have about 3 years of gaming to our name, but none of our characters have had to hang up their cloaks.
If your up for a story or two, just drop a message. otherwise, I'll leave ya to your stories.=p

Well I said in my last post I'll go into further detail what Plainscape, and the Lady of Pain now that I think about it.
Now what plainscape is picture that what if all religions were perfectly valid and that they talk to each other, so every lawful good god especially live on mount Olympus, you also have the abyss where all the chaotic evil gods live. Theres even an adventure called dead gods where you go to the astral plain where gods go when they die. Religion plays a huge role in plainscape where morality is one of the most important aspects. There's a war with chaotic evil and lawful evil are wagging war with each other called the blood war one wants to oppress them under one iron fist and the other just wants destruction for destruction sake and the thing is if one side is to win everyone else loses because they would focus their attention on everyone else.
Back to the Lady of Pain the lady of pain lives on top of an infinite spire called sigil in the center of plainscape. Sigil is the realm of doors and the lady of pain controls it all these doors could lead anywhere and be opened by anything, if your character has a pulse which now everyone in sigil has like Mordrons, or if your character is blond, or if your character carries a stick of beef jerky in his pocket you can never know and that's the DM's way of waving anything.
You people might be wandering what the lady of pain looks like, well she's a lady with blades around her neck, you may see her walking down the streets of sigil or floating over see is in a sense a godess, If you see her RUN... FUCKING RUN close as many doors behind you don't look at her don't talk to her oh god don't talk to her turn tail and run and hope to god she didn't see you.
She is the ultimate gate keeper of sigil and has the power to keep other gods from entering, think about that the lady of pain has the power to not let gods entering sigil. The lady of pain is not a godess in the sense that nobody worshipers her, nothing pisses her off more that people worshiping her, if you worship her or preach her go gospel, she kill you if your lucky and by being the ultimate gate keeper she can maze you she'll shove your ass in a virtually impossible maze.
I hope that summarizes the lady of pain and plainscape and the thing I love about her is two things one they never stated her and two it's the DM's way of saying Nope.

Botch-O-Mania
This is a little more recent involving Wizards of the Coats Encounters set they've been putting out for 4E, Now as an Assassin in the 4E character creation they are fucking overpowered even at level 1, they start with an insane Base Attack, have crazy damage output, plus they could tack on an extra D6 to their damage (up to four with their shroud ability) as well as high defenses, they can effectively solo a boss.
Now at this DND encounters was the 8th season called the Elder Elemental Eye set in the forgotten realms, The Elder Elemental Eye and sees the return of the Abyssal Plague to D&D Encounters. Now me playing an Assassin and being the only one in the party with any real damage output could not hit anything the whole season, mind you this season went on for ten weeks, one game a week. I was rolling on 1's (auto-miss) and 2's with the occasional 3 and 4 and I had a +11 to hit. It was brutal I just spent the whole season in the corner playing with my crossbow.
