Popular Post Girot Posted August 27, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted August 27, 2013 (edited) DISCLAIMER: Yes, I made this all up after seeing Buglips's painted Well of Chaos. This is meant to be broken and thus fun. Any holes or loose ends you discover feel free to mend on your own. Excuse me while I go order 7 more wells. The Party Discovers: “The Well of Legends” Once per session, while dungeon diving, when a PC rolls a 20 on a search check, part of the floor crumbles away into an abyss and a Well of Legends emerges. It remains until someone, or something, takes from it. Each Well has one ‘use’. It can be consumed at the well itself or bottled. If bottled/or used on the spot the Well sinks back into the abyss and the floor restores itself. Consumption, skin contact, and blood transmission (injection or a coated blade) are known means of ‘use’. Roll 1d6 to determine the Well type. If the PC has knowledge they may choose the effect. If they don’t they roll 1d3 after use to determine effect. 1 Well of Blood (Red) = Restore full HP AND cure all diseases(including incurable ones) OR restore one severed limb OR dunk head of dead guy to resurrect (head must be attached) 2 Well of Ether (Blue) = Fully restore all of your Points Pools (all types) OR spells/spell-like abilities/special abilities/etc “for the day” OR remove one curse of your choice. 3 Fount of Wellness (Yellow) = Remove ALL Status Effects, OR all negatives levels, OR all ability score damage to one ability score 4 The Necrowell (Purple) = Gain the Undead Template OR Remove the Undead Template (affected creature is restored to full life with full health using their origin race. If no origin race the Undead simply turns to ash and blows away) OR Cause Instant Death (no saves, no getting out of it, you are dead). 5 Gaia Spring (Green/Overgrown with vegetation) = Permanently Gain: Control Plants (Su 1/day/level) OR Wild Shape (Su – see Druid for details – use Character Level) OR an Animal Companion (Vermin or Animal only). 6 Well of Knowledge (creamy/sparkly water with book bobbing in it) = Go up one level (gain exactly enough XP to reach next level). OR gain Omniscient (Su 1/day): you may roll an Intelligence check on ANY knowledge check regardless of subcategory OR Gain any one feat, regardless of prerequisites. 7 Well of Greed (filled with treasure) 1d4 regardless of knowledge = Roll 1d4, 1d6, 1d8, 1d10, 1d12, 1d20, and 1d% and multiply them in reverse order. The well spews the resultant total in gold coins into the space the fountain spawned in. OR the well consumes ALL of your wealth and personal possessions regardless of location OR a Wondrous Item emerges from the coins (GM rolls this item up to keep it random) OR a Cursed Item emerges from the coins (GM rolls this item up to keep it random). 8 Well of Chaos (black) 1d6 regardless of knowledge = You are banished to another plane of existence OR You are banished to another planet in your solar system OR You are banished to another game system OR You cause an out-of-season solar eclipse and become Michael Bolton OR You summon a creature/character from another plane of existence (first thing to pop in your head) OR You summon a creature/character from another game system (first thing that pops into your head) Edited September 21, 2013 by Girot 23 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator OneBoot Posted August 28, 2013 Moderator Share Posted August 28, 2013 The Well of Chaos is hilarious, I love including a different game system. Having a mecha drop into the middle of a Pathfinder game could get interesting really fast. Huzzah! --OneBoot :D 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Last Knight Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 It's the beverage version of a Deck of Many Things. This could end badly... 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just in case you couldn't find a purpose for that gorilla with a chaingun for an arm. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxfire Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 I like the 'first thing to pop into their head'. I'd run that as 'Nothing happens'. Then wait till they said something, either in character or not and it would show up fairly soon. Good times :D 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having a mecha drop into the middle of a Pathfinder game could get interesting really fast. Huzzah! --OneBoot :D Ah this brings back memories of play-testing our groups first home-brew game system. While clearing a dungeon we ran into a 40K Dreadnaught. Pretty sure we went through at least a dozen PPKs (partial party kills; at least one character survived to be able to form another group to try, try again). I miss those care-free high school days. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spencerjohn Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 Excellent! Reminds me of all the shrines in Diablo. Will definitely use this. First thing that pops into your head. Yeah that was a great part in Ghostbusters and would be hilarious with a group of players. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
