This thread is for people to brag about how their character's may have gone out. Was it the Paladin that held off a dozen hobgoblins while the rest of the party escaped? Were you the guy that got bull-rushed off a cliff? Was he the last hold out in a TPK?
I once read a story about a guy who kept making a wizard and getting killed in a dungeon. He said the game wasn't very much fun because it was him and his buddy and he kept dying.
Thats not what I am talking about.
I'm talking about cool deaths. Deaths that you remember. Deaths that really enhanced the game and gave the rest of the characters somthing to talk about and develop around.
But I DO love it when my character dies. It has the same feel for me as rolling that critical 20 that saves the day. Its actually exciting!
In my most recent group, I had a cleric of Cuthbert who in the hanging ship in the styes, went to check a door. While he is listening at the door, the rest of the party was outside, and silently three suhuagin rose up out of the pool behind him. He never had a chance. He got pinned to the door in one round. But that is not what made it great. It was the vengeance the party executed afterwards that really made it special. That and the DM did not pull any punches for my character being gung ho.
What was your coolest death?
