Only one character made it out of that adventure alive and that was the half-orc Morn Swampass. Morn had got the mummy rot though and time was not on his side - they were deep in the jungles of Xen'drik south of Stormreach and it would be days by elemental-powered riverboat to get back to town.Morn died on the fore of the boat, put there as nobody wanted to be near him, before they could reach Stormreach. At that time, I was a little less accepting of TPKs than I am now and offered a number of solutions that I could present to help the character avoid this fate.The player said that it was honestly such a memorable death that he didn't want my help. And so Morn died. They were successful in their adventure though and I think that's what made the difference.</blockquote>
