Amongst a party of grave adventurers was one human. This was only a few hours ago. The human wore the most moronic grin, I mean deeply, almost inconsiderately stupid. Our encounter ran thus:
Me: So you'd like to follow your friends here into, what was it? The Crypt of Utter and Complete Darkness, and Earnest Blackness, No Light Whatsoever, Really, Very Dark Down There? That Crypt?
Human: Yessir.
Me: And your friends here are aware that you are human?
Human: Yessir.
Me: Good. And they are also aware that, while humans are indeed a very capable species with many useful qualities, they are, in fact, not adapted to seeing in the dark?
Human: They need me to heal them sir. I'm a cleric.
Me: I see. Right. Have you ever heard the term 'guinea pig?'
Human: Little furry things sir?
Me: How about 'patsy'?
Human: Had a cousin called Patricia, sir.
Not wishing to condemn this ninny to no doubt a horrible and very unseeable death, I told him to get his hands on Essence of Crystalline Lens, mix that with any Salts, and thereby produce an Elixir of Darkvision. The human's grin widened noticeably.
Human: That'll be good, only I'm scared of spiders, so I might leave off until we get to the not-spidery bit of the crypt.
I'm sure he'll be fine.
