[QUOTE="James Gasik, post: 9385546, member: 6877472"] Oof, that xp value for permanently killing her. Sounds super high, right?. So, [I]Queen of the Demonweb[/I] Pits is a level 10-14 adventure (average party 12 according to the adventure, with at least one Thief and two Clerics, and "well-balanced" with regards to Fighters and Magic-Users.*) Consulting my 1e PHB, that means that a level 12 Thief, who is the only survivor of a successful [B]godslaying[/B], only gets enough xp to go up about 0.56 of a level (level 12-13 requiring 220,000 xp). Sure, the treasure (Q x5, R, X x3) probably covers the rest, but yikes. Kill a God permanently, don't even gain a level of experience! At level 12! *Amusingly, there's a note that each character should have "magic items appropriate to the level of experience"- which to my knowledge, no metric for this actually exists beyond possibly pages 101-102 of the Fiend Folio, which came out a year after Q1).
