My favorite spice was when we were doing good old Seer (Sand Cavern Quest, for you elitists) and Wiggyboy shows up.

He decided it'd be a good idea to have an group of Ysinode illithids assault the boss in there. So please picture this: we fight and run our way through speedy creepy zombies while illithids encroach upon us from behind with a small army.

When we finally thought we got away from them, Wiggy decides that infinitely (almost) respawning Umberhulk guardians would be a fun spice to drop on us.

Wiggyboy spice is the funnest. But bring an umbrella...

Quote from: Gippy;126602I like the mechanical challenge of DM's spicing with massive amounts of creatures, propagating the need to go wild on consumables, just so that you can look like a total badass.

<-- This.

The part where the DMs materialize 10,000 gold to be devided evenly by the party.  Or did you want real spice?

In reality I always love it when they posses NPCs so we can RP with them, always fun.

Agreed, random moments (such as the Governor walking around for some fresh air (I was so expecting a sniper to hit him)), or just making the NPC's start shouting "The Spirit Sings!"


Actually, my favorite spice was the Wild Orcs 1 fowl up (misspell intended ;) ). It turned into WWIII as the PC population fought back 1000+ orcs (we must of depleted most of the Orc's strength at this point with THAT victory, they don't breed like ants. . . I think). It was nice we got some GP at the end, for our troubles.

A spice on kobolds, with a kobold illusionist creating an illusion of gnome slaves, under which, there was a trap, trying to buy their freedom.

And, in the end, after the slaughter, ONE kobold ran down from the hill, screaming: "Im a survivor."

I fell of my chair.


Another one was on trogs, with one of the trog shamans fireball roasting one of his own, and the whole monologue he made to him.



Yet another one was on Vrazdn, with goblin necromancers etc, lots of barricades, a goblin-suicide-bomber running at us to blow himself and us up, and then, due to our team getting more into hunting down a member of our party, which turned out to be a werecat, failing in completing the quest, as Lord Vrazdn simply sneaked out :D


And yet another one, thumbs up to Nuke, was the plot with the 'Little Girl." To avoid spoilers, I'll just say, it was totally awesome.


And the most ever hilarious, wasn't really a spice, but a random encounter on one of the first of my days on EfU:A.

What better there is to give two thirsty dwarves..... than a sleeping, drunk giant, and DOZENS of ale bottles?

I haven't been playing for a while, but I'll chime in.

Back in EFU, the rag tag crew of under supplied, and low on wisdom characters of the Golden Doubloons decided to attack the goblin keep.

Two DM posessed Goblins had us running for cover before we ever got there with traps, lobbing acid/fire/laughing gas at us and hiding.

So hilariously one sided against two goblins lol.
