Note; this is the same campaign as the one where my rogue went on some murder shenanigans.
Our party has just encountered an ancient green dragon and…it did not go well. Long story short, my rogue is dead, our barbarian is dead, our fighter is dead, and our sorcerer and paladin only survived because the sorcerer managed to run and slap down a circle of teleportation and between him and the pally, save two of our corpses. Enter the agonizing about which two to save.
Our barbarian, OOC; “No take them I swear it’s okay.”
Our pally; “Dude are you sure?“
Barbarian; “Yeah. It’s okay. You won’t be able to resurrect me anyway.” (Turns to DM) “Because I want to haunt the dragon.“
(Beat)
DM; “What.”
All of us, OOC: “What.”
Barbarian; “I want to linger as a vengeful spirit to haunt the dragon.“
DM; ”….um. Okay. Tell you what, roll a constitution and a charisma check.“
Barbarian (does) “26 and a 21”
DM; “Holy shit. Okay. You haunt the dragon. Any particular goals for your unlife?”
Barbarian; “I want to be the most annoying angry ghost that has ever been a pain in his giant green ass. I’m going to throw things at him when he’s trying to sleep. Moan loudly at dramatic moments. Rattle his treasure. Whisper insults in his ears. The whole fucking deal. I want to be an absolute dick, and to drive him slowly insane."
DM; (Slow grin). ”Done. You now haunt the dragon as an angry poltergeist.“
Barbarian; (Satisfied nod.)
The rest of us, OOC; "Holy shit."
