[QUOTE="Mac Callum, post: 1398958, member: 17035"] Sure, once or twice. Give me a break, I was in highschool. The only "really bad" PC killing though was once in conspiracy with one of my players. All the other players had really gotten on our nerves (don't ask me how - I don't really remember now. Something to do with being cocky, wise-asses). Anyhow, the two of us conspired to kill off the rest in one night. It didn't happen all at once. 2d.E, Ravenloft - 1. Three werewolves attacked and while the "big" werewolf was distracting the party the other two grabbed the cleric and ran off with him. They ate him. 2. A 'trap' at the entrance of the castle dropped a iron portacullis (sp?) on a player with a three-tonne stone holding it down. Under 2d Combat & Tactics it was a "torso-critical; impaled." They couldn't lift it off him and left him to bleed. 3. Acid trap. Iron gate locked into position over you, so you were drowning in acid. 4. Wraith trap. A wraith that kills creates a new wraith, but they were stuck in the room too, so quite a few wraiths were in there by the time the PC fighter found it. 16 I think .... 5. Last PC jumped from a guard tower, fleeing zombies, into the river. He swam to a boat in the middle of the river. River Vistani, lead by a CE witch that drank the blood of the innocent to power her magic. And that was that. Like I said, I was 15 and they pissed me off. 10 years later I can see it wasn't the most mature way to handle the situation... That was the only time I killed them all (or even any of them) of purpose though. Mostly they managed to kill themselves quite well, without my help. Like the time the Aasimaar Paladin used his [I]Holy Word[/I] 1/week to stun all the other PCs unconscious in the last fight with the BBEG. The BBEG was B & B enough to only be [I]slowed[/I]... Or the time a reflecting lightning bolt was cast in a 10x15 room. Mmmm .... 20d6 is no fun when your 5th level. Yup, those were the days... [/QUOTE]
