[QUOTE="ppaladin123, post: 4670443, member: 60923"] In a game I was running last year, my players encountered a group of "entombers" and ghouls. One of the guys, who was playing a rogue already low on HP, decided to attempt to tumble past all of them even though the other players warned him that he stood almost no chance of succeeding. He failed to meet the sky-high DC (of course) and provoked three attacks of opportunity. The first infected him with ghoul fever, the second killed him outright, and the third (against his body coasting through the air) embedded him 6ft underground (one of the entomber's special abilities). The other players spent a good 10 minutes laughing at him and then decided to simply leave his corpse to reaniminate as a ghoul forever trapped in a rather-tight grave (they weren't playing a particularly honorable bunch).
