Famous last words of heroes

[dave_o]

4th level fighter as the party waited for a dragon as it came out of it's cave-lair so they could sneak inside and nab the treasure: "I jump on it's back"
Rest of PCs & me(DM): "You..what?"
Player: "I jump on it's back, screaming 'DIE!'"
Dragon and PCs watch the fighter fall to his death.

"I bet you didn't know I could fly, did yAAAAIIIEEeee..." As flying wizard gets tagged by a dispel from opposing wizard on a narrow cliff pass.

Actually, Drim Soigrim (my Rogue 11/Guild Thief 2) stabbed a green dragon to death, hanging on it's back.

Of course, it was grounded by a few wizards, and was taken by surprise.

But still. He's a halfling!

Don't worry, trolls aren't dangerous!

No, that's Trogdor the Churninator, he gives us butter every week or so.

Monk : I do a flying kick at the gelatinous cube!

Holding rod of wonders : I wonder what this button does!

Cthulhu Shmuthulu!

 

[Henry]

Actually, my most famous last words were:

"My name is Nils Stavanger of Stavanger Province, Kingdom of Danemark, born in the common year 1921. My father was Hrothli Stavanger..."

These words were being spoken as my character was stripping himself of all his magic arms and armor, in preparation for detonating the magical fire bomb that was to destroy the castle of Lord Dracula, allied with the Axis powers.

Can you guess why?

"Hey guys!!! Watch this!!!"

 

[maddman75]

My bladesinger to an evil lich whose minions had been terrorizing the local town

"Recant your evil ways and dark gods, and agree to serve me for a hundred years and a day, and I will let you live."

The Lich said - Finger of Death

The d20 said "2"

I ripped by sheet in half (tradition in our group). The DM, without even looking up from his notes "That didn't sound good."

Player: I grab torch and boldly step inside.

- Tomb of Horrors victim #1.

Player: Bah! It's gotta be an illusion.

- Various modules, same result.

Player: (after the requisite amount of soul-searching) I... I pick a card!

- Deck of Many things, and players who never learn.

Player: I attack!

- Newbie error #1 when playing IMCs.



A'koss.

 

[Squire James]

"I pick the lich's pocket."
"There's only two kobolds, and they're carrying a chest!"
"Ha! I only need a 2 to save against that!"
"Don't bother healing me... I still have plenty of hit points."

 

[Hand of Evil]

We should have went with plan B...

Breathweapon, the wizard said nothing about breathweapon!

Sure we will take damage but just how much damage do you think a trap like that can do... Player to the party as they were looking over the chessboard trap!

 

[NewbyDM]

"Uh oh" - end quote.

Chaaaaaaaaaarrgeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!....*squat*

 

[Allanon]

"I use my Rod of Wonder!!!" - said by the Gnomish Transmuter while a Black Knight charged him... wel at least we could bury him on a grassy field
