We started out playing on a system that’s in beta (DC20) using a scenario where the players could wind up intentionally or unintentionally winding up in another reality (I want to try out a lot of different systems).

One of the players had a vision of a future where basically she killed the whole party, but while she knew this was her party, she didn’t recognize them. I threw this in to eventually use in one of the other realties.

Cut to a few months later and DC20 was changing a bit too much for us so we switched to 5e to wait for the beta-ness to settle. I gave the players the opportunity to change their characters up if they wanted, and made the switchover by using a five room dungeon in the form of a dream sequence.

At the end, everyone was their new 5e character except the one who had the vision because she loves her character so much. At the end of the dream sequence, I told her that as she looked around at her party, she saw the faces in her vision and subsequent nightmares. I wound up looking like a master strategist.
