Our last one. Full on city invasion, party split up, Wyverns everywhere, land troopers attacking as well, A fierce General, 2 PC´s barely made it up again, collapsed buildings everywhere, mayhem. All improv and ToTM.

In the game, I took a tarot deck and started pulling cards. Soon they had the mission to take a fortress, started a Khone/Slaneesh cult with some guardsmen, took control of a frigate and smashed it against the fortress in a huge battle and an escape at the last second. Everybody had a blast

I'm in this picture. I've done one shots where literally the only prep I do is plopping some monsters onto a map and looking up stat blocks.

Love this question. The winged sessions people remember seem to be the ones where the GM follows whatever the players latch onto instead of the planned dungeon. Curious to read the answers here.

(2/2) But the barbarian PC managed to ace his cooking skill roll, and used his intimidation skill to get the entire party signed on as caterers. The NPC guards handled the bandit attack offscreen, and the players had a blast faking their way through the trip as caterers. It was all improv. 😁

@tabcreations.com The night before a wedding, a bunch of us were drinking margaritas and talking and somehow we came to talk about D&D, so I went: "You're standing in a field. Something weird is coming through the wheat towards you." We proceeded to play for the next 2 or 3 hours. Made up pretty […]

Strength is beautiful…

Almost every game. You can't predict chaos but you can go with the flow.

A cancelled session got short-noticed uncancelled. Off the cuff Reddit search turned up bear trap - a literal bear drops from the ceiling. A one-shot of awfully bad puns and jokes ensued in a brewery rivaling the PCs'. Villains were the likes of Hoptimus Prime and Robo Hop. Wonderfully ridiculous.

Reminds me of that meme where the players ask the GM if they have the whole world and lore thought out and the only thing the GM has is a hastily written post-it note that says "Sexy Goblin?"

@tabcreations.com It was a Star Wars game. A simultaneous bachelor party and bachelorette party on Ryloth for two beloved NPCs. (Every player had control of their own PC and an allied NPC of the opposite gender.) We flipped scenes back and forth. The lads went clubbing and freed animals from a […]

It was actually quite a lot of fun and presented interesting challenges for us all. It was a hell of a time though! 2/2

All of them (even with prep LOL)

Pandemic-era online D&D. I accidentally used a character token identical to one selected by a PC. And realised at the same time they did! Ensued an immediate long-lost brother has joined the dark side sub-plot line that continued until brother killed brother on a rain sodden Waterdeep roof.

An improv session of Dread where I just had the characters wake up naked in a huge hall with no memories where other seemingly lifeless people stored away and ended up being the beginning of a zombie apocalypse with the players being said zombies

That's my secret. I'm always winging it. I might prep a map here, some stat blocks there, but by and large? The session as a whole is improv, with some props from the prop bag to bring it all together.

I was at a con, and the GM disappeared before the session. We sat down and when it became apparent we were home alone, the table turned and looked at me. I had a title - Cats vs Goblins I riffed a 3h Fate Accelerated riot of a game, which I've ran twice since and am seriously considering publishing
