[QUOTE="Eosin the Red, post: 1398192, member: 168"] The party cleric ALWAYS had protection from elements - fire and was for all purposes immune to fire. In the midst of a hairy adventure he happened to be standing in the middle of four other players essentially at the mid point of a square. I had 2 creatures who had a nasty fire breath in a line [Lightining bolt with Energy substution or something] and a fairly powerful wizard who was dropping a nice juicy fireball on the PCs. This was gonna hurt everyone at least a little but I had two rogues who more than likely were going to save for no damage two fighter types with insane hitpoints and the cleric who was immune to fire - So being the DM that I am, I busted a move on the PCs, moved into position and got everyone with 2 or the 3 attacks except for the Cleric who got all three attacks. Ummm....He had just finished telling the party [while I was snacking] that he had decided to stop with the insane levels of fire protection, in fact he did not even have ANY resistance to fire up. Wow, failed one of the saves...OK, total is 117 points of damage. ME: I bet even a few of that got through your resistance? Cleric Player: Yep, some of it did. Table: snicker....snicker....snicker.... ME: What? Cleric Player: I am at -29 hit points. ME: How in the world are you that low? Explanations follow..... ME: "Gee, sorry. You want to use my d6s for the new character?" Accidental death....it can happen. EDIT: Whooooooopssss. That was killed a player, not killed a character....Sorry. Nope, I haven't been killing players lately. [/QUOTE]
