I haven't seen such a thread here, but I thought it belonged.
This is a place for everyone to put their stories of characters who unknowingly went with the worst possible course of action. That could be the player who has a knack for finding people who are more powerful than they seem, or stumbling into every trap in a dungeon. Heck, they could just chug every unidentified potion they see.
For example, I have a half-orc barbarian in one of my games. And everywhere he goes, every trap I have ever laid down, he's walked right through it with glee. When I filled a room with obviously poisonous gas, he waltzed right in there to scout it out. I made him make three fortitude saves before he collapsed! He even decided the best time to rob an innocent man was just in front of a LG paladin NPC they were supposed to meet.
Surprisingly, this character has not died yet.
So, does anyone else have stories of players who just seem to find the option that gets them in the most trouble?
