The two of us left the castle as the only survivors in the party.  We did not finish the adventure.As a DM my most memorable fight is in Dragon Lance.  There was an NPC that joined the party named serinda or something.    She was an elf magic-user or F/MU, I can't remember which.  What I do remember is she had a wand of fireballs and regularly miscalcualted and fireballed party members, including herself.   Pretty much if the fight started getting tough at all she would let loose.   Well  she cast a fireball inside a ship that was not big enough to even contain it.  She centered it on an enemy that was at the time 10 feet from her.  The ship sank (I think it had to sink in the story any way) and basically that is the last thing the party remembered before waking up on the ocean floor.   I can just remember one of the PCs being SO, SO angry when I said serinda pulls out her wand of fireballs.</blockquote>
