GM: You're in a cave, being chased by evil vampire bats. There's a giant chasm ahead of you. You can't fly or levitate fast enough, assuming you even had the ability.
EX: Crap. I'm an earth elf. Let's fill in that chasm. Oh, lady of the earth, who hast not blessed me recently... Oh pleasepleaseplease, I could REALLY use some help right now!!!
GM: *rolls* Congratulations, she hears your prayer!
EX: Yay! Now what...
GM: Well, you might only be level 4, but you've managed to cast a level 18 spell!
EX: Whaa??? But how?
GM: She liked your style.
EX: Wait... liked? Past tense? What spell did I just cast?
GM: *evil grin* Earthquake, of course. The whole cave just collapsed on top of the party.
EX: D'oh!
GM: Don't worry. Your goddess clearly liked you enough to help you cast the spell. I'm sure you'll have a good home in... wherever it is dead Earth Elves go. Come on, time to make a new character...
