Hmm, there have been so many that I have a hard time narrowing it down to one. Some of my favorites as a player include:

• When Aeduin threw himself into a pillar of fire to save someone (thus becoming the Smoke-Eye, changing from bard to Cleric of Occipitus)
• When Thelisn became a bodak PC and …

Most weeks it seems to feel like a 1. Every time I need a good roll the most, a 1 tends to come up. I think it’s a curse or something.

None. I love every single character I’ve ever played and would play any of them again if a reason came up to do so. Some are more of a favorite than others, but I’d play any of them at all.

I am perhaps overly fond of cursed items. As a DM, anyway. I find them amusing and when I DM, I have thrown quite a few of them at my adventurers. It’s never powerful cursed items, just little things that will cause mischief or annoy. My favorite, however, has to be the infamous Belt of Gender …

I don’t really give too much thought to mundane items. They are just the essentials that sit on your character sheet, barely noticed or acknowledged except on rare occasion. About the only common exception is rope. Every character I have ever created must have rope. Usually 100′ of silk rope if I …

As a player, one of my favorite magic items was a Tome of Evil that Delban picked up in Lord Soth’s castle in Ravenloft. It led him down a dark, dark path, quite literally. …

As a DM, I’m overly fond of Silence and Greater Dispel Magic. Nothing like making PC spellcasters …

Gnoll rangers. It’s a funny story. Well, OK, it wasn’t all that funny. You had to be there. Suffice it to say if the rest of your party is trapped behind an iron grate, don’t wander off to scout the area while they’re working to get through to your side. Just don’t do it. Don’t. Even if you’re a …

That’s a tough one, but I’d probably have to say the girallons. Nothing more terrifying than a 4 armed ape that can literally rip party members in half if they get a good grip. We had one encounter where just a couple of the things really beat the snot out of our party. It wasn’t fun.

Second …
