The cleric was walking through a forest when he heard a loud explosion. Upon investigation, he quickly uncovered the ruins of a large tower he couldn't remember seeing there before. He decided to search the rubble for anything worth looting. At that point, I told the wizard to start rolling to see if he would stabilise.

I seem to have started up another round of this game on facebook. An Australian friend posted a baby echidna, thinking it was a baby platypus. Seems like we know each other's countries better than we know our own, as he informed me that at least his country didn't invent deep-fried sticks of butter, something I'd never heard of before.

I checked because I was pretty sure it wasn't what I thought it was and it's not what I thought it was. So never mind.

Just went through and figured out which ones haven't been guessed (or at least, haven't been acknowledged) yet. They are:
