Comment Hi Chris,
I originally got into D&D years ago after listening to the podcasts of you DMing for the Penny Arcade guys, Wil Wheaton and Scott Kurtz. Been completely hooked ever since and I wanted to say thanks for giving me the inspiration to DM my own games! I will be starting Curse of Strahd with my players as soon as it comes out we are really excited about it.
My question is what is your favorite twist/surprise that you have ever pulled on a group of PCs throughout a long campaign that really had them shocked?Wow, good question. Hmmmm … I once had a villain catch the party by surprise on a balcony. The characters were badly beat up, and their defeat seemed likely. The villain won initiative and, on its turn, delivered a brief monologue that was interrupted when part of the balcony collapsed. The villain fell to its death, allowing the party to escape. My players were quite surprised.from discussion AMA with Chris Perkins (Today at 10:30 AM PST).
