Message: <blockquote data-quote="NiTessine" data-source="post: 222366" data-attributes="member: 475">I've never run a character long enough for him to die, actually. I've always been the DM.But, let me recount the tales of those four tattered, burnt, bloodstained character sheets on my door.First, there is Turandar, an elven fighter from the days of 2E. I ran that game to a bunch of people in a mental hospital, and this player showed it a big more clearly. He was insulting, and disruptive to the game. So, a four-armed sahuagin stuck him through the back with a trident. Later, his head got smashed, and he was resurrected as a zombie, and chopped to pieces, and thrown in the Rauvin. A long story.Then, there is the esteemed Bright Mage and engineer Azholf Stolf, from a 3E Warhammer campaign. He poked the wrong body, and the ghast that it was throated him.Gurnik Gurnisson, a dwarf barbarian from the same campaign, paid the price for stubbornness. He stood his ground against some thirty zombies, and their insane leader. Stupid, stupid, dead.Then, finally, there is Thielf, the halfling rogue, played by my little brother, a terrible pest. The rest of the party convinced him to get a sword off a suspicious corpse coated in yellow mushrooms. Now, you know what happened. A few rounds later, his Con score was -6.There are others, whose character sheets were archived, or given to their owners as memorabilia.Hodalh and Talindra, a human monk and an elven druidess, were another two casualties of the Warhammer campaign, slain by a freak portal accident (one of the players wanted to start a new character and the other never showed up in games).Speartip, a RuneQuest character, fell in an icy river. Three rounds and lots of bad rolls later, she had drowned.</blockquote>
