I think itd be funny if as u traveled you ran into a very powerful looking party consisting of a mad mage with magic swirling around(if possible) him, and a bunch of heavily armored goons. When u ran into them the mage would yell something(havent thought of anything specific yet, just keep it quick and crazy <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> ) and than itd go into a a little in-game cutscene and the mage would try and cast a powerfull spell that fails and blows up him and his entire party into a 'so gory its silly' mess, at which point ur character would just respond 'Huh?' <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/badsmile2.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/devil.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />
Hmm reminds me of that crazy wizard family just outside Waterdeep, you know the one who's idea of a "Featherfall" spell is a lot of feathers to fall on, and the one who got attacked by an illithid (Mindflayer) so he polymorphed his bum with his brain (for the ppl who don't know Mindflayers use tentacles that are attached to their head to suck their enemies brain out) Imagine what they would suck with
that polymorph spell <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ouch.gif" alt="" />
