Imporant safety note: tigers in Pathfinder are very, very dangerous. Just ask Xanfire, elven evoker, and Vilhelm, half-orc monk. They were brought to bloody ruin in the Dragon's Delve.

Mogrum, Half-Orc Archivist Wizard

His quest for immortality was cut short by a swarm of scorpions while he was admiring his new sand schooner :C

Also the tank brilliantly ran away as obviously the Orc is a Tank right? nevermind the wizard part

Hell he was probably going to kill himself if was asked "What do you mean you don't have armor?" or told to "take out his sword and fight" one more damn time

Goodbye Kalael, elven evoked. That advanced, poisonous grick on the ceiling didn't have anything against you. It was just hungry.

I played in a D20 modern game a few months back, where a fellow PC committed suicide after two blue worm things had burrowed into his leg. He was about to go into negative hit points and decided that he wouldn't let such lowly critters do him in.

He told the GM that he was going to shoot himself in the head and use his double tap feat to fire two rounds.

After an appropriate "Wait, ...what?" moment, the and every other player reassuring him that unless the critters rolled high he could still be saved, the GM told him to roll damage, and be sure to include that extra die from double tap.

We still tease him because after the game all of the rest if the players insisted that we figured out if he would have lived, so we all rolled dice and he would have been saved right in the nick of time.

Our annual Halloween Cthulhu game ran a bit long. Ended with a TPK of all four investigators. And anyone who tells you I was the one that inadvertently completed the ritual that summoned a Great Old One is a damn dirty liar.

Was Rob the DM ?

 

[Plane Sailing]

Heh!

No, I was the DM. Rob was playing a Fighter with an 18 Con. min-maxers would laugh at his 14 Str, but my goodness he was survival itself!

Octo

He was a warlord-cleric hybrid built around wisdom, and was supposed to be a character that made it all the way through Gardmore with no changes (I change characters a lot)

Instead he did nto even get there. He died in a preliminary adventure (Dungeon Delve lvl 7) that was supposed to provide the first card.

He got trapped in a field of necromantic energy, and the darbarian (a new plauyer) teleported through a wall to try out his breaching armor, leaving me facing the field, the Ogre Mage and two undead ogre zombies. Going form 8 to 0 healing surges in two rounds, he did not make the 3rd.

And the Dragon's Delve devours two more souls. Trinity, female gnome (comedic) bard and Killroy, human fighter, were butchered while under the effects of magical sleep by corrupted Satyrs.

To be fair to the fallen, it was perhaps the worst day of rolling ever: many fumbles, constant failed saves, minimal damage, etc...
