[QUOTE="wallshot, post: 258502, member: 759"] [b]The Valant End to Kerrik the Drunk[/b] so we are fighting a dragon. its red. we were asleep when it attacked. we (the players) were saying prayers for our characters. The party wizard still had some spells memorized that he hadn't used. My ranger was able to get to his bow. The cleric or tempus had armor he could summon to him. The sorcerer had unused spells. That left Kerrik, an outtawork soldier who was prone to drink heavily. After many rounds, Im outta arrows, cleric is low on HP, sorc is outta spells. Kerrik was relatively untouched as the dragon had spent little time on the ground, preferring to unleash magic on us from the air, along with the BW every 4 rounds or so. Kerrik looks at the wizard and asks what spells he has left. Wizard replies he only has a few cantrips and a teleport that he can use to get us all outtathere. Kerrik judges the distance to the airborn dragon and says, "Teleport me up there." Our jaws hit the floor. The wizard teleports himself and Kerrik up to the dragon and Kerrik is on the dragons back hacking away. Dragon starts to plummet to the ground, we think it is going to crash. As it is descending, it rolls over to crush Kerrik. Kerrik rears back to take what he knows is the last swing of his life. Suddenly his sword becomes sheathed in a halo of freezing cold energy as Kerrik crits the Red. Dragon dies and the weight of it crushes poor Kerrik into the ground, leaving a giant crater in the earth. DM ruled that we could resurrect him as his sole had found true happiness in the last moments of life. The elves in the area constructed a crystal tower to the memory of The Valiant End to Kerrik the Drunk. I never wanted to play a bard so bad in my life after witnessing that. [/QUOTE]
