[QUOTE="Hypersmurf, post: 736929, member: 1656"] Zob the Fighter was potentially the unluckiest character I've ever met. In 1E, you didn't lose a level for being raised... it was always a point of Con. Zob started at level 1 with 18 Con. By the time I left the group (shifted cities), his Con was 10. (That Ring of Regeneration was - literally - a godsend...) ---- There was the night the player had to pop out to work for a couple of hours during a session. "Look after Zob for me," he told us. When he returned, he asked how things were going. "Um... you died." "Oh." "Um... twice." ---- There was the time the horde of ghouls had paralyzed everyone else in the party, and were moving in on Zob. Zob looked at the odds, and broke his Wand of Fireballs, releasing all the charges. Eventually, thanks to his Ring, Zob woke up. A few days of sifting through charred corpses later, he'd managed to bring everyone else back... ---- There was the time the demon saw Zob using his Boots of Levitation. "Why don't we head up there where all these other people won't get in the way of our fight?" the demon Suggested. Zob's Wisdom was terrible, and he failed his save. "Sure!" he agreed. The demon could fly and fight just fine. Zob, trying to levitate and swing his sword, found things going badly for him. Party to the rescue! The ranger fired a +4 arrow. The magic-user cast [i]Lightning Bolt[/i]. The monk threw a [i]javelin of lightning[/i]. The dwarf released a lightning bolt from his magic warhammer. The ranger hit Zob. The demon was immune to electricity; Zob wasn't. Oops. ---- Oddly enough, when his Ring of Regeneration got Disjoined at the end of that adventure, Zob stopped dying... -Hyp. [/QUOTE]
