Tell us about these deaths... I wanna know where to expect trouble with my group.
(Disclaimer: Our TPK came against Aurathator in the playtest version of Rise of Tiamat. He used to be an ancient white, up against a 9th-level party. Now he's an adult white. So the results will likely vary. Many of the other deaths here occurred in a homebrewed dungeon I added.)
Here, in this icy cave, six adventurers went forth to confront a dragon.
San, the urbane male human barbarian from Calimport, who crept on rooftops and read the lips of his wife's enemies.
Xeera, the female elf ranger with a deadly eye for accuracy, who rode a pterodactyl to take down a younger white dragon in a previous adventure.
Floyd, the male human druid, who was the pterodactyl Xeera rode.
Flora, the female half-elf bard, a beauty and a singer.
Aveline, the female elf wizard, who nearly escaped up the rope out of the cave, but for the dragon's spells.
A male human cleric whose name I can't remember, who lacked healing spells but was fond of stoneshape.
The same male human cleric whose name I can't remember, after being the only member of the party resurrected, was later slain by a mummy lord's rotting touch. This time, he stayed down.
Much later, delving into the lich's dungeon (homebrewed)...
Borzin, a male dwarf barbarian, was dominated by the lich, then told to go through a planar gate. Which led to the Abyss.
Melvina, known as The Red Lady, a female human cleric came face to face with the lich, alone. She attacked him and missed. Then she was disintegrated.
