so if I roll a 20, does that mean I pay the least or the most? And is a 1 a good roll or bad?

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Depends if you're still playing Second Edition.
On which note, I just preordered my 4th Ed rule books. And saved a bunch of money on my car insurance by threatening my agent with a golf club.

I might have to try this method.

Hey, I have something coming up in my Eberron game I thought I'd solicit ideas for. I'm sending them into the Mournland when they're about fourth level, there to know fear and despair in boundless measure. As part of the experience, I want each of them to suffer vivid nightmares. Problem is, I have seven players, so I need seven nightmares, and I need good ones. I have a couple already planned, but I was wondering if anyone here has some good ideas for a one-page or so nightmare narrative.

It's almost midnight here, so I won't go into detail yet, but I'll post about them tomorrow.

Yeah, post some details about the characters in question, and I'll kick out some ideas. I love coming up with symbolic nightmares.

Coding and Sleeping
Five nightmares.
1. Cleric dreams that he accidentally goes to the tavern naked.
2. Mage dreams that he totally forgets about his spell test.
3. Fighter dreams that only after confronting a gang of annoyed bugbears does he realize he left all of his weapons at home.
4. Bard dreams that all of his teeth crumble and fall out.
5. Thief dreams that three steps before a sure backstab on a totally unsuspecting lich his entire outfit suddenly consists of nothing but cowbells.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

This would explain so much about my so-called "stealth" skills.
