My PCs were recently seperated from the party's dog recently due to a
series of events. Last night one of the group's channelers was spying
on a group of trollocs, so I decided to place the dog in one of the
nearby sacks the trollocs had set aside for a midday meal. While the
dog started barking, the trollocs began arguing with eachother and
turned their back to the channeler. I thought this would have provided
ample time for him to snach the sack with arms of air and run off, but
instead he turned away and moved off, saying that he couldnt take on
that many trollocs at once.
Now Im in a predicament. The dog is like a mascott to the group, but the other PCs are pretty far away and I cant think of any reason why the trollocs wouldnt club the dog to death and eat it that night. I probably brought this on myself but still... can anyone think of some ways to save my puppy? |

Hmm... well, I suppose the trollocs COULD kill eachother. But since no
one is around to see it it'll look like doggy took on a whole pack of
trollocs by itself and won.

have a fade arrive and order the the trollocs to chase after the
players thus brining the puppy to the players and making the game more
interesting

maybe the dog did take on the pack of trollocs all by hisself.
maybe the dog, whilst initially a normal dog could have picked up some dark spawned creature to ride it as a host. a leech or something. the leech creature (i think i'll call it BOB) will enhance the dog's martial skills and hardiness. the dog with its abilities enhanced by BOB fought and killed the trollocs and escaped back to his friends. yeah i was bored -------------------- For Those About To Rock, We Salute You

but what is going to happen then?
The party discover the fact that BOB is attached to the dog and any attempt to remove the thing will cause the dog pain. the dog on the other hand likes the new found power of having BOB with him and will attck the party to defend BOB. i need to get out more ![]() -------------------- For Those About To Rock, We Salute You

Kill the dog, get a new one. Problem solved.
![]() Or, if you're not a fan of violence towards animals, you can have the sack rip, fall open, what have you, and the pooch runs like heck. Another idea is you can have it start to whine, you know that pathetic adorable noise all dogs make when they're upset or want something and it just melts your heart and you give in and give him that cheese doodle that you know he shouldn't have, and to thank you he pukes it up in several piles around the house while everyone is in pandemonium trying to get him outside, which by the time it happens, he's out of puke anyway, and then your dad asks why he puked, and there on one of the piles is a perfectly intact cheese doodle and your fingers are supsiciously coated in orange cheesey powder and your still holding the bag and then you get yelled at, and swear never to give your dog food again cause he's betrayed your generous nature, but then he makes that whiny noise the next day, and soon your giving him ruffles in clam dip since he won't eat it without dip, and the whole process starts over again, except this time he chewed the chip a little better. Anyway, if your group can resist the adorable and pathetic cry of a dog in need, you'd better get a new group, cause they are heartless.

We have a funny story in our group about our friend Amanda and how she
made a mage for a game that our friend john was playing. People in the
group kept jokingly telling amanda that john was going to make her take
the groups pack donkey as her familiar, a point that she got very upset
about. so when john showed up for the night, she made him promise that
she would not have to take the donkey as her familiar...which he agreed
to.
he then went and made the donkey one of the coolest creations ever. it had epic character levels. I guess that this is my vote for the super puppy. -------------------- Legends of Darkness Are Not Always Myths - An Ongoing experiment in writing/illustration/mythology

Personally, I wouldn't think it'd be inexcusable to have the puppy seen
in the VERY near future running down the street, and maybe the trollocs
could be chasing it, or maybe they just preferred not to be seen by the
villagers. Maybe there could be a bit of a story around the puppy.
Maybe it could be lucky. There's a bit of history behind Bel, why not
the puppy? Or, maybe the character who ditched it hears whimpering,
then yelping, and if that doesn't make him go back, sear his soul with
guilt and kill it.

Someone took my idea. I was going to say: The dog's barking attracts a
pack of wolves who, seeing another four-legs being threatened by twisted-ones on their turf rush in to slaughter the Trollocs. During the confusion the dog gets loose and mauls a few Trollocs of his own.
Thankfully I have a spare: There is a short scuffle between those going for eat-the-dog-now, and those saying save-it-to-flavor-a-later-meal. Once the Trollocs finish their version of the electoral process they start getting a cookpot ready to make dog-and-trolloc-stew. Then they start getting their fallen fellows ready for the cookpot they discover that one of them was hording some gold. A battle royale breaks out, because all Trollocs like shiny things. The sole survivor gets not only the gold, but dead fellow's dagger in his gut. Unsurprisingly he doesn't enjoy his winnings for very long. When discovered there is are the markings of a large brawl, dead Trollocs all over, a heaping bag of gold, and a dog still running around barking in a sack trying to get out of it. Ooooh, fun one: The Trolloc voting goes on as described above. But after the Trollocs have thrown their fellows who were saying "save it" into the pot and advance on the dog they are all stricken dead. For this is no ordinary dog, it is infact a ta'veren. This dog is more crucial to the turing of the Wheel than can be expressed! His fate is incredible, no mere Trolloc can harm him! ![]() Or more fun: They all erupt in flames. The dog can channel. Hee hee: Its super-dog! 6. The Trollocs go for the sad puppy eyes. 7. The dog really does kill them all. 8. Three words: Puss-in-Boots. -------------------- Honorary Paladin of the Lawful Naughty
