[QUOTE="Glutton, post: 782128, member: 3549"] What's the worst player killing in a single session you've done as a DM? My worst in a while was yesterday, when the munchkin iajitsu using (not in OA, nor was the PC from an Asian setting) 9th level rogue/some PrC/PALADIN thought he could charge an advanced chuul and iajitsu it. He died 2 rounds later, then the chuul killed the hill giant NPC named Zeus, and the party night hag ran away, and the chuul took Bane the elven bard prisoner and forced him into servitude for a week. He also took most of the party's equipment (roughly 60,000 gp of stuff) and went off to start his own organization in the big city Now there's a chuul with the equipment of 2 9th level PCs and pretty high ECL NPC running a business with at least 2 powerful undead (the 2 dead party members) serving him. Yikes. The player of the dead PC rolled a wizard as his new PC. The wizard saw a bodak and died, even though its DC wasn't exactly deadly. (19, a little more than average due to Ability Focus and some extra HD; they still died in 3 hits to the munchkin fighter and BARD) 2 PC dead, same player. In the next encounter the fighter got touched by 2 spectres and almost died (due to ECL templates, has only 5 HD) BTW, in the previous game a PC managed to get killed by a (huge) zombie when the 7 party members were fighting 8 such zombies (EL 9 encounter, party level= 11 due to numbers and higher level NPCs) Maybe the players should all become devoted defenders of one another... What about you? [/QUOTE]
