Message: <blockquote data-quote="(contact)" data-source="post: 445402" data-attributes="member: 41">A Current Accounting of the Quick and the Dead.Those Who Struggle On: - Aelniir, a human paladin of Pelor, loved by all for his sunny personality and his gigantic sword. - C’min, an elven rogue and linguist, cunning opponent of Evil. - Fräs, a long-suffering cat, bound against her will into the service of that self-important conjurer Jespo, Fräs undermines Jespo’s confidence at every turn. - Gnomer, a gnomish cleric of Garl Glittergold, famed for his feisty temper. - Heydricus, a handsome and rugged sorcerer who has recently discovered that he possesses a righteous zeal to Kick Evil Ass. - Jespo Crim, an anemic human conjurer, given to quarreling with his foul-tempered familiar Fräs. - Prisantha, a stunningly beautiful half-elven enchantress, given to deep thinking and mental manipulations. - Ren-Qi, a female elven monk, she is a silent and deadly force . . . well, okay, she’s just silent.  Except when she’s complaining about Jespo.  Or the food, or the weather . . .The Honored Dead (in order of demise): - Whistlin' Pippin Jumpscreek, an industrious and much loved halfling rogue, bludgeoned to death by doppelgangers, then eviscerated.  (Or vice-versa, later witnesses could not say for sure.) - Esril, an Almorian expatriate, human fighter and lay follower of Kelanen Sword Saint, buried in a closed coffin thanks to Laereth and his staff of striking. - Reysnole, a half-elven druid and lover of gentle things, perished from one too many unnatural openings in his torso. - Aelniir, a crusading cleric of Tritherion, slain by dragon-breath outside the Moathouse.  (And of course the withering volley of arrows he took outside the moathouse, and technically you have to hand this one to Lareth’s henchmen, even though they aren’t even named in the story, because they stabbed him so many times). - Ahlana, a crafty yet cowardly cleric of Boccob and devoted wizardess, shot in the back by assassins as she took her Last Sip. - Gnomishic, a wizard and rogue, rended limbs-from-torso by devils. - Isuld, Esril's protégé and unfortunate recipient of an unrequested decapitation via beholder. - Suhe, a former jester turned monk, disappeared under mysterious circumstances. - Tisha, a gentle and shy wizardess with a taste for invocations, made headless with a blunt instrument by ogres. - Lady Amyryth, a human paladin, slain by the succubus posing as the Lady Anne. - Lucius Maturin, a human rogue and “inquisitor”, rendered into an Evil but very devout paste by giants. - Sister Keriann Croller (“It’s Keriann!”), a staunch (if elderly) nun of St. Cuthbert, vaporized from the shoulders up by giants. - Daniere, a human fighter, voted “Least likely to be remembered over drinks by her former adventuring companions”, killed by something or other right around the time Sister Keriann died.  Or did she die with Egil?  No, no, we gave her masterwork arrows to Egil, so she must have died with Little Leaf against the giants.  Was she the tall one? - Little Leaf, a forest elf of unusually sour disposition, perished when his skeleton was rendered suddenly dysfunctional, due to a sudden and massive blunt trauma. - Rose, human ranger, details withheld at the request of her surviving family. - Anton Flamehair, human invoker, killed by his adventuring companion and oldest friend in an unfortunate friendly-fortress-fire incident. - Egil, a human fighter, could not outrun the entire Army of Evil.</blockquote>
