Some great ...Thanks for joining in, too, C'nor. Some great ideas there even if a couple are more detailed than I intended. I'll make your fourth one into two separate entries on the list, because they don't have to be used together even though they can.<br /><br />But I especially love the knitting one.

A new supply must be procured.<br /><br />An institute of magical learning has vanished from sight, but can still be bumped into. In addition, about 30% of all conversations will be lost due to the chiming of a clock which makes silence instead of noise.<br /><br />The party requires a virgin sacrifice for some reason. If the Paladin has not taken vows of chastity, re-roll.C'nor (Outermost_Toe)https://www.blogger.com/profile/01580315916281876117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-272065689635265568.post-69890511872124718642011-01-28T12:17:11.006-05:002011-01-28T12:17:11.006-05:00Ooo, good ones!
