[QUOTE="CWD, post: 257998, member: 665"] Minor spoilers. Best death? Years ago we were playing a silly OD&D module, Quest for the Heartstone. The big bad villain, a thief, is cornered on the edge of a cliff with the artifact the PCs need to retrieve (the heartstone natch). Luckily the thief has a flying carpet, so he hops on and starts to escape. The group's solmanic knight (we were playing it as a Dragonlance game) does a running jump off the cliff and knocks the escaping thief off the carpet. They both fall hundreds of feet to their deaths. The rest of the party climbs down the cliff, retrieves the artifact from the wreckage, and buries the knight at the base (I ruled the body was too badly damaged to raise). Most heroic thing I've ever seen a PC do. Might I add they didn't even loot the corpse? Dumbest deaths? Just a few months ago I was running RttToEE. The party was fighting a dragon. The party was hurt, but the dragon took more of a beating, so it turned and ran down the hall to escape. The party chased it down the hall. I stared at the map and realized they were all in a line behind it, chasing it down the NARROW passage. The dragon looks over its shoulder, smiles, turns and breathes. TPK. [/QUOTE]
