Here's one for you DM's that want a slightly funny scene, about near death. The players are approaching an area of recent battle when they spot a soldier laying on the ground dying. If the players get close, the solider ask them to bury their corpse after they finally pass. If the players agree the solider will lye there, waiting to die. (if the players check up on the solider while they lie there, the solider will say 'nope not dead yet') After about two hours of just sitting their waiting to die, the solider will ask the players to take them to the hospital, cause 'I'm not dying today'. If the players proceed to do this, the solider will give the party a nifty full-blade, since the soldier will no longer be able to use it.
