I recently got this one, I said "Are you kidding me? Am I really playing someone /this/ incompetent?"
So, my new bard character, who has no idea whatsoever of fighting, or even half of real life (the part that people kill each other daily in the Rising Sun), was trying to pry out a story from someone who said she had to hide, when a dark, unnamed figure suddenly approaches and starts lamenting.
Of course, my bard was so scared she fell off her chair, asking /what the heck/ the mysterious figure was trying to do.
He said "Telling you a story, you wanted me to". Nonono, I answered, I asked my companion here to tell me a story.
Somehow, this upsets the unnamed, who proceeds to mutter about Zaros and how he eats "Our kind" (Humans). Of course, my bard goes all "PANIC! A Vampyre in the Inn".... And tries to hit him in the head with her lute.
Of course, being a battlehardened vampyre, he catches it in one hand, grumbling vile threats at the poor bard. She tries to kick him to give back the lute, wich he had caught, and gets her leg caught too. So she eventually screams for help from the White Knights that were just passing through.

Lucky she survived, but the entire idea of a bard attacking a fully armed Vampyre with a /lute/ was so hilarious I almost fell off my chair half of the time.
My existence is debatable, but likely.
