Discovering that my poor, long-suffering non-starter PC wizard, Alec - who had several hours of impotent terror trying to make it as a Wizard in Neverwinter and Hilltop - had finally found his true calling and power in Waterdeep. With a repertoire of spells and a cache of magic either scrounged from Undermountain or purchased from shops, he's finally getting his own back on the world at large.

"THIS is for that god-damn Academy!" *bzzap* "THIS is for those damn sonic traps!" *kaboom* "And THIS is for that EVIL £&""^£^$& Intellect Devourer..."

EDIT: Alec's an Invoker(Evoker?). This might explain why he's both rubbish at low level (no conjurations) and chock-full woth spells that go bzzap and kaboom.

The other momentous event was my cheerful Paladin, Tancred, battling evil and slaying all manner of foes during Shadows of Undrentide to unearth - at one point - a Holy Avenger. I imagined light streaming through cracks in the wall, bathing the young knight in a holy radiance, with choral music in the background, as he drew it forth - very much an 'Excalibur' moment, there.
