	The following is an interesting problem our GM dreamed up:

You have been stripped of all levels and gear. You have been placed
in the Abyss. Youe suddenly realize Orcus himself is coming down the
hallway to where you are. You now have the following options:

	1) Pick any 5 magic items from the DMG (INCLUDING artifacts).
	 
	2) You will have a surprise attack the first round, and you
	   will have initiative the second round.  After that, he 
	   gets to do whtever he sees fit.

	3) You can pick yourself to be a first level anything.

WHAT DO YOU DO ???

Points were awarded with regard to :

	1) Escape and survival.
	   Orcus is dead.

	2) Escape, but Orcus still lives.

 	3) You die, and Orcus dies.

	4) You die, Orcus lives.

	5) Style... did you make Orcus look bad in front of the
	   hometown fans??? (This is the most important).

Later, I'll submit some of the results of our attempts (two successes !).
