[QUOTE="Hussar, post: 2554589, member: 22779"] One of my fav's occured recently. While looting the home of a fairly powerful mage who was thankfully not at home, the party decided to grab what they had and leg it. Unfortunately, they weren't quick enough and got caught by the demonic Skiver (Scarred Lands critter - think demonic scorpion) guarding the wizzie's back yard. They dance with the skiver a for a few rounds then decide that discretion is the better part of valour. However, not quick enough, the party rogue foolishly stays one round too long in the hopes of "finishing off this bag of xp". Skiver attacks. Double crit stinger attack, critical claw attack, hitting claw attack totally about 60ish points of damage... to the wounded rogue with 9 hit points. I described the scene as similar to the death of Bishop in Aliens. Little bits o' thief all over the landscape. To this day, "Pulling a Trey" is synonomous in my group with spectacular character death. [/QUOTE]
