Just wanted to say for the record that, in the year of our lord 2021, I came up with a Legend of Zelda-inspired D&D one-shot where you had to pass three trials to escape the underworld. The final trial, the Trial of Wisdom, had you meet a princess in a tower guarded by a dragon, who begs you to slay the evil dragon and free her. The twist is that the princess in the tower was actually a disguise put in place by an evil sorceress, and the dragon was the actual princess, who had sealed away the sorceress and who was granted the form of a dragon so she could keep her locked away forever.

Anyway I’ve never been able to run the one-shot and now I never will be again. Even though I came up with it first. Thanks, Tears of the Kingdom.

#me.txt #totk spoilers #it's not a very inspired twist tbf. I could refine it #like in this age i think it's more common to subvert the princess in the tower trope than play it straight #but originally i didn't see the point #at any rate #it doesn't matter if the players suspect (and even if they did ... isn't that still wisdom?)#but rather it plays off the idea that Insight checks are wisdom-based #dnd adventures #i GUESS #i came up with dragon zelda a year ago! send me royalties nintendo!#tbf the idea was based off of botw (again: zelda-inspired) so i can see where our trains of thoughts converged
