I wanted to share a story from a player perspective.
A long time ago my cousin and i had a D&D group that consisted of the two of us and many times we would resort to playing over the phone (before that fancy interwebs was what it is now) this story takes place around this time...
Now for the first half of this campaign i was playing a paladin that later became a black guard specializing in mounted combat, i had also taken to using the skulls of slain foes to create bombs with by filling their heads with black powder after sealing their eyes and nose with wax. (we were young and this made since at the time) I had happened upon a small village that had little to no defenses and was planning to stay the night when it happened.
out of the nights sky there came a roar, a roar so terrible it could only be... a blue dragon!!!!
Now my cousin had fully expected me to run with me knowing full well that i could not even think to slay such a foe at my current level and also lacking a party to back me up.
Quickly i sprang to action charging the blue wyrm as it plunged through a building i leaped upon the beast! (passing every check asked of me mind you) I scaled the head of the wyrm and struck the fuse of one of my bombs that i had hanging from my belt (most made from goblin skulls) and i shoved it as far down the dragons nose as my arm would allow before leaping from the wyrm and crashing through the roof of a near by shack.
Needless to say the dragons head exploded and the two of us so shocked at the luck of my rolls we jumped from our seats laughing and shouting cheers of preteen victory lol
