These are all great. I'm laughing at my desk at work reading through this thread!

It seems like most of us have had some fun while encountering Shayliss:

The elf sorcerer in my group, Destin, thinks himself quite the charmer and casanova. So when Shayliss approached him he quickly saw through the "rat problem" cover and eagerly made his way to the shop with her.

We decided to roll play how the whole scene went down and when Shayliss threw him to the floor and climbed on top I asked him to roll (FORT if I remember correctly) to see how well he performed:

Nat 1.

It turned out that he quickly "messed his robes", confusing and upsetting Shayliss. This unpleasant turn of events compounded when Vin made his way downstairs into the mess. Having done such a poor job romantically the two would-be lovers were still fully clothed. This allowed Destin to weasel his way out of the situation by making some skin-of-the-teeth bluff and diplomacy saves.

Vin has since harboured a suspicion of Destin, and Shayliss avoids eye contact, both of which make for a very fun reminder of the whole situation as the group spends time in Sandpoint.

Traps that is, not spoilers.

I think it'd be neat to have a place to mention all the funny/random things that have happened in the campaign. Whether it is from a terrible/awesome roll, or just something the characters did in combat or roleplayed.

My group is all brand new players, currently level 4 in Thistletop. They make their way down to the bottom level and into the room with the projection of Karzoug. No one speaks Thassilonian so they examine the room looking for a switch. This goes on for quite some time before they realize the messaeg is just repeating.

After a while of frustrated searching one of the players realizes the image seems to be giving a speech to an audience. The player says, "My character begins clapping." He says it as though he had solved a riddle and then begins clapping in real life at the table. The other players look at him for a moment before joining in the applause until they were all clapping loudly.

The image of their characters standing in a dungeon clapping at a spectral image while my friends were actually clapping in real life had me doubled over in laughter.
