In the first campaign I played in college my cleric was killed in the first twenty minutes of the first session as follows:DM: You see a ruined tower.Me: I go inside.DM: There's a staircase leading down.Me: I walk dowstairs.DM: As you turn the corner at the bottom of the stairs a huge rat leaps out of the shadows onto your chest, tears into your flesh, burrows up your throat and bursts out of your face. You're dead! As if I needed that last part clarified. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f631.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":eek:" title="Eek!    :eek:"  data-smilie="9"data-shortname=":eek:" /> Me: Uh... Aren't you supposed to roll dice or something first?DM: No. You're just dead.Me: I'm pretty sure you're supposed to roll something... you know, initiative, an attack roll, a damage roll... something.DM: *picks up a handful of dice, drops them onto the table without looking at them* You're just dead.Me: *meekly* I had chain mailDM: *shrugs*Me: Oookay... Later everyone. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f615.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":confused:" title="Confused    :confused:"  data-smilie="5"data-shortname=":confused:" /> Sufice it to say I never played with him again. I Chalk it up as a learning experience. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /> Even a decade later though "You're just dead" has become a running joke of sorts in our group whenever any PCs dies unexpectedly from lots of damage, a trap, ect.</blockquote>
