    So, me and my very young cousin were spotlight characters in our uncle's D&D campaign, me being an Indiana Jones ranger type of guy, and him being a giant gorilla that is intelligent but will do anything for a sandwich.

    So we are facing these monsters that can squeeze into the smallest of places but otherwise are quite big, and spit acid. Well, Phil, the gorilla, is quite protective of me and when I got hit with acid, he went on a rampage. So he goes in and gets bit by one of the hundreds of mouths on the monsters body, to which my cousin states "I'm not a sandwich" and the table of quite older people die laughing as the gorilla goes into rage once more making a "knuckle sandwich" out of the monster and saying "Now you are the sandwich"

    To say the least I can't wait to travel back to them and play another campaign with them.

    So me, your average 7'2" Goliath Rogue with a +9 to sneak, along with a Dragonborn Paladin, a Halfling Bard, and a Gnomish Wizard are doing your normal escort mission. Get these two civilians from point A to point B. Well, on our way, we are stopped at a bridge by a man. So our Bard strolls right up, introduces himself, and the man immediately transforms into a werewolf. Now, any other time, this wouldn't be so bad. But the Bard has an insane fear of werewolves. So he does the only sane thing and goes invisible, tries to cast vicious mockery, then runs and hides in my bag. The werewolf, however, didn't want to fight yet, instead just wanting to negotiate to get one of the people we are escorting for his master. He also reveals he has a lot of backup, so attacking him is not an option.

    So I, being the sensible survivalist, also being the only neutral character in a good aligned party, try and negotiate our survival. After some talking, and a lot of hitting my bag to keep the Bard from casting attacks against him, we're not really getting anywhere. But the Bard is still talking and basically pisses him off. So he walks up, takes the person hes after, and walks back to the bridge. So the Bard lost us our only bargaining tool. I think it was about this time I decided to give up. So what I did was say something along the lines of "You got what you came here for, do whatever you want to them, I'm leaving" and proceeded across the bridge and towards our destination alone. Our Bard, however, decided to try and pull some heroics.

    So the werewolf and his crew, getting what they came here for, started to leave through the woods. The person they took slung over one of his bodyguards shoulders. Our Bard, still invisible, snuck up to them, using a spell to mask his scent, and cast invisibility on the person. However, this didnt do anything, as he could still feel her there. So, our DM, to demonstrate his reaction, showed how he was carrying her, like this

    and had the werewolf use his right hand to flip off whoever tried to free her, and we, the players, caught the slip and argued that if he did that, he would lose grip on her, so she managed to get away with help of the Bard making everything smell like Beef Jerky to confuse the werewolves.

    In the end we managed to get the people safely to their destination, so that was nice. Until the main villain, the werewolves boss, decided to destroy the town in order to get her anyways ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
