He shot me with an arrow and had just leveled from 2 to 3 while I was still 1st, so I had no means of reciprocity that did not involve getting my butt handed to me...no means save genocide, that is! >:-)
so did you coup de grace him/them in his/their sleep?
It should also be mentioned that he was attempting to double-cross the rest of the party when I out-double-crossed him...and the rest of the party. All for three wishes, baby!
love this post! Good to have you back on the boards Greg!

They had made some super secret pact to set off the trap in the cavern to fry the rest of us while they "shared" the wish-granting treasure. Unfortunately for Skeeter, Greg double-crossed him. I had suspected foul play and had already retreated out of the cavern and down the tunnel a bit. It might not have been far enough to escape the resultant explosion. Bill puts nasty traps in his dungeons! (As if that's news...)
~ninja'd by Greg!
Just the first example in that year of why I'll never be able to game with Greg again. At the every next Con, the next month, I sat in a "company only" game with a few people.
Me dead, first encounter, less than 20 minutes in, by a black dragon(?). Was not fun.

Greg, I wrote the 2002 D&D Open at GenCon, and the original version of the final encounter with the Gargantuan Red Dragon was so deadly, the guy running the tournament leveled the whole encounter down and took out the surprise attack from the Dragon.
I think you and the other FGG guys would've been proud of the design.
And, on another note, Bill mentioned a FGG kickstarter starting next week on the City State of the Invincible Overlord Kickstarter comments. I wonder what...
"we are running one starting next week for our next hardcover--JG and DF can post on it--I have no burn about that. I fact--I'll probably endorse both. Its a small community. We need to support each other!"

Bill stole the top reward on that KS ~ now adding Dwarf Lord to his many titles! :p

Which is going to be awesome when he gets the book, so I can call him the "Dwarf King" at cons lol
Now, if I could only get him to grow a beard, but Momma Frog might kill me
Yeah I've previously had the beard removal ultimatum too!
I'm quite partial to The God~King of the Dwarf~Frogs :D
Yes, but us dwarves do!

Funny the way this discussion has turned; in my TT game last night, the party wizard got turned into a frog by stealing the eyes from the statue in the courtyard of the Cloister of the Frog God. Failed his save, poof, turned into a frog.
Still kept his intellect, so he thought about it a bit, then decided to touch the gem again to see if it would reverse the transmutation. Poof, different type of frog, and this time he lost his mind, too.
Wizard gone....but now there is a frog in the Cloister with buff-as-Hell legs (he was a dwarf wizard), and a little green goatee.
I think thats going to make it into a book somewhere lol
They're going off to the main road to see if they can find a caravan with a couple of merc guards that want to seek their fame and fortune! :-)

Im thinking he'll show up as a familiar to someone, quite powerful, maybe in the Tunnels of Terror????
Your players are going to kill you when you run this for them.
Coming from you Bill, that is scary!!!
