Fuzzus said: Good lord, this post is active! I need to think about this whole brain-eating thi--no, you know what? We're in this game to have fun. If you guys want to do this stuff, we can certainly do it. Two things to consider, though: the person who eats the brain will likely become more powerful than the rest of the party (at least in the short term -- if anyone feels like this is unfair, I might just disallow it), and if you fail that fortitude roll, you will die. And sure, you can come back, but I feel like if you died from eating a dragon brain, you may come back..... wrong. We'll see what happens. ;) As for the rest of the rules and suggestions on the linked page, I'm going to avoid the ones on essence, tongue, and gallstones (let's just say Venomfang hadn't developed any yet), and while I don't like the eye-eating idea, I do like the idea of it being used to create a magical item with seeing properties. Maybe it'll be a spyglass, maybe it'll be a magnifying glass! We'll find out. ;) I almost want to eat the brain and fail the save just to see what'd happen after! ÒwÓ If you're worried about fairness and keeping the party balanced, I could take a shot at revising the effect-list so whoever eats the brain doesn't risk getting too much more powerful compared to the rest of the party? Like remove the xp gain, maybe split up the ability increases... But then again, the rewards should be balanced with the risk too...
