As a companion to the Lamest Character Deaths, I'll ask this question:
What is the most memorable character death you can think of? Blaze of glory, unique circumstances, whatever made it memorable and talked about for years, share it with us. I'll start.
I had been playing with the same group for about 2 years and I decided to take a break from it. a couple months later I went to the game for a session... not to play, but just to see how the campaign was progressing. It was a fairly high level affair, and the session I attended just happened to be what was supposed to be the culmination of the campaign, in which the PCs had a showdown with an avatar of Set, which the DM asked me to RP.
Things were actually about evenly played. Both factions were managing to hold their own, until I (as the avatar) was able to dominate two of the PCs - which happened to be a paladin and a cleric or the same goddess, as well as sisters - and pitted them against each other. The ended up actually killing each other! With two of the strongest PCs out of the way, the rest of the party fell apart pretty badly, and the result was a TPK if memory serves correctly. But Set (me) derived such enjoyment from the two sisters that he animated their corpses and had them fight to the "death" again!
I still keep in contact with my old DM and he still mentions that game every once in a while. He almost asked me once to play every villain from that point on.
Your turn.
