First Post
Hello, everyone. I'm hoping to get at least one of these posts out per week. We play Pathfinder for those who are wondering!
In each in every one of our campaigns, someone dies. Usually in horribly pathetic ways. Let's get started!
10.) Puddledeath
I've noticed something kind of funny about barbarians. They usually either die in amazingly epic ways, or incredibly stupid ways. With our friend Noah, who constantly plays barbarians, there never seems to be an inbetween. In this particular scenario, he was trudging along with the rest of us through an underground cavern, filled about ankle deep with water. It was treated as rough terrain and that was that, no one expected anything from it.
Anyway, we're just walking along, looking for the hovel of a cultist, when we hear a strange clicking (Thanks to a nifty perception check by our resident sorcerer). Confused, we stop. After a lengthy series of 'Are you making that noise?', 'No, are you?' style interactions, a horde of crabs jump out of the water.
Yup. Just straight up crabs. We laugh and start disposing of them. One by one. Two by two. Dozen by dozen?! After ten minutes out of game, we're desperate. We've run out of splash weapons and spells, and our hitpoints are dangerously low. No matter what we do, they just keep coming!
Finally, we decide, screw it, we're out. So we begin running, and the barbarian steps on some algae. The algae is treated as grease for that square, and he falls flat on his face. As this happens, he takes one more hit from a crab and goes unconscious, and starts drowning. We don't know what the hell to do, being super low on health and resources, and decide to just book it.
And thus ends the tale of Alleira, the woefully fated barbarian.
Alright, folks, that ends the first post! There will be 1-3 more tomorrow, so stay tuned!
