No idea if or exactly what sort of power it would trigger, but: "take me to the bonuslevel because i need an extralife" by pornophonique [link]http://www.jamendo.com/en/track/81741] i see trouble on my way deepest dungeons far away from my home i tell you i‘m in danger i tell you evil will arise take me hold me show me the bonus points, the golden coins i need an extralife i need an extralife jumpin‘, runnin‘ through an unreal land hiding, firing i can‘t stand them all alone so all alone i tell you i‘m in danger i tell you evil will arise take me hold me show me the bonus points, the golden coins i need an extralife i need an extralife -- "Remember, the truth is out there." —Johnny "It is?

Successful completion of the quest (the bonus level) will allow him to recover from the lethal effect. ---------------------------------------------------- "Anyone can be a winner if their definition of victory is flexible enough." - The DM of the Rings XXXV - Bob Schroeck - 12-18-2011 Finally got to hear this tonight. Hm. I remember a power called "Flashback" from a tabletop RPG -- can't remember which -- which might apply. So how about... if Doug plays this song all the way through a combat, if he's killed (or maybe just defeated), he flashes back to the beginning of the combat and can fight it again... but without a flashback. -- Bob --------- Then the horns kicked in... ...and my shoes began to squeak. - Salvage - 12-18-2011 If it only happens when he's killed, how would he find out? -- "Remember, the truth is out there." —Johnny "It is? Oh, I hope it doesn't maul anyone this time." —me - LynnInDenver - 12-18-2011 I'd say it would likely get played if Doug has absolutely no idea what he's about to face, and needs to do a reconnoiter before actually wading into a potential combat... and expects that he'll die or be defeated before he can make use of the information properly. -- "You know how parents tell you everything's going to fine, but you know they're lying to make you feel better? Everything's going to be fine." - The Doctor - classicdrogn - 12-18-2011 I'd go with the 'defeated' angle, I think - for one thing, it's a lot easier to come up with a situation that will let him discover what the song does if he only has to be defeated to have it take effect, rather than something unexpectedly getting so much of a drop on a career adventurer to actually kill him when he thinks he's in a place isolated and safe enough to be experimenting with new power songs. - CD -- "Anko, what you do in your free time is your own choice.
