the WHEAT MAN of KOS

Sometimes, in the red wheat fields of Kos, where the hills loom and bones slowly moulder, you can find the Wheat Man lurking.
It is well-known that sighting the Wheat-Man is a sign of good fortune.  To represent this, any member of a party sighting the Wheat-Man gains a bonus of +1 to any attack, ability check or saving throw that would otherwise have failed by a single point.  In such cases, the DM should merely state that the character was successful despite being one point shy.
If you attack the Wheat-Man, you will surely never see him again.

  1. Love this. D&D needs more of this type of mythic stuff instead of always mechanics and combat...

  2. thanks man! the mechanical bonus idea was actually stolen from the good-luck bear at the beginning of Stonehell by Michael Curtis(i forget the bear's name). the Wheat Man was my idea, and i got the picture from a post on monsterbrains.blogspot.com
