How do you handle wishes in your campaign? Do you have any good stories about the use of wishes in your campaign?

Im pretty easy on wishes. I only give them out about every IRL 5 years or so. I usually know more or less what they are going to do w it. he worse mishap w them was when one of thee paladin's wished fo the Holy Sword "Hope"(he knew it was a +7 Holy Sword). The bad prat is Hope had been ascended to godhood and the wish made a sword out of him again, yikes!

I say give 'em exactly what they ask for, no twists, and see what happens! Consequences, maybe, but no twists.

Typically if the wish is being used altruistically, say to return a lost level or bring a character back to life I let it slide. If they wish for an item or ability I'll gauge how greedy it sounds compared to rest of party and adjudge accordingly. In these cases I require the wish to be exactly worded and I'll mess with play if they are vague.

I like wishes, warn the players ahead of time and then the greedy players will have to live with the consequences of being greedy and hasty.

If wishes were horses, beggars would ride. Wishes should be like women of noble character - rare.
