(My D&D group is currently looking at one of the players rebuilding his character to a spellcaster from his fighting/teleporting role. This would leave my character as the only warrior/meatshield, but he is a pretty good one. So I wrote the following. Think along the lines of the prelude to the Dead Bishop [on the landing] Monty Python sketch for the bold parts)

Evil Caster 1: "We will kill these squishy spellcasters with ease!"
Evil Caster 2: "Yes, but first we have to kill Mister Meatshield. How about we send our minions to fight him?"

One combat with Mister Meatshield and pureed minions, later.

EC1: "Our minions proved ineffective against Mister Meatshield."
EC2: "We should cast spells on him. Spells work well on meatshields."

Three rounds of spells evaded and beaten by Mettle, later.

EC1: "Why is Mister Meatshield still standing??"
EC2: "Wait, why don't we try to hire him to be our meatshield?"
EC1: "What, and be a party full of casters protected by only one meatshield? Don't be ridicul-urk!" *dies from a sword slash from Mister Meatshield*
EC2: "Quickened Teleport! You haven't seen the last of me, Mister Meatshield-"
Squishy Spellcaster, interjecting: "Oh yes we have - Quickened Dispel Magic to counterspell!"
EC2: "Curses, foiled ag-urk!" *also dies from a sword slash from Mister Meatshield*
