The Ice Bucket Challenge - Pathfinder Style


Homebrew and House Rules


So, my D&D group was nominated for the ice bucket challenge by someone who used to play with us. We will most likely do the actual ice bucket challenge together and we are already going to donate to ALS research, but since I am the current GM, I thought I might do some sort of in-game ice bucket challenge for the party, as I have found that fun quirks like that are what make a campaign memorable.

So, I'm looking for ideas. We are running WotR and the party is currently clearing out Citadel Drezen. The most obvious options would be a water elemental or a white dragon for the cold. Or perhaps an actual ice bucket trap. One thing I'm considering is an ability or consequence that partially paralyzes the victims, since that would most closely resemble the symptoms of ALS.

Thoughts? Ideas? Out of the box suggestions?

I like the idea of using an ice bucket trap as an in-game call back to your group's participation in the ice bucket challenge. It could be something as silly as just a bucket of icewater propped against the top of a door, or maybe a bucket full of alchemist's ice.
