* In ''Shadows'' you can visit a temple where worshipers are meditating on Ao. You can take a test where you must answer a riddle. Your answer is apparently '''so''' profound the worshipers assume ''you'' are Ao, and start begging you for wisdom and guidance and give you gifts as shows of loyalty to you. You have the option of going along with it or telling them to knock it off.
* In ''Shadows'' you can find a Shield Guardian golem fighting enemies. Defeating them and talking to it invites one of the most hilarious examples of InsaneTrollLogic ever.

* One that you'll usually only encounter if you mess up in the module editor: if you attempt to spawn something and get the res-ref wrong, the game will make a badger. This can lead to events where the henchman you built spontaneously decides to explore a new career as a mustelid because you screwed up while coding his level-up conversation.

** To survive the icy wastelands in Chapter 3, you need to use mildly explosive Velox Berries to ignite fires strong enough to survive the cold long enough for you to warm up. Usually you can use between one and three, but scavenge enough at a time and you have the option to use ''20'' berries. The result is a huge explosion of fire that instantly kills you. SchmuckBait at its best.

** Ask it where there is treasure, and it grows confused, as it doesn't recognize the word. When you clarify treasure is "something valuable," it tells you [[MathematiciansAnswer the master is valuable, and he's right over there]].



** A magnificent bit of SelfDeprication, Deekin and Sharwyn discuss the "books" they each wrote about their adventures, "Neverwinter Nights" and "Shadows of the Undrentide." Sharwyn says she liked "Shadows" but found the second chapter too rushed after a promising start. Deekin admits he was running a lot for that part, and offers to tell Sharwyn the problems with her book; Sharwyn scoffs there ''are'' no problems with her book. Deekin just snarks "is you joking?"
