[QUOTE="MerricB, post: 1533114, member: 3586"] G'day, Herremann! :) Ah... hoist by your own characters. Sounds familiar to a PC in my campaign. :) Her heroism (and death wish) is similar to a PC I occasionally play. It's not exactly smart, but it's enjoyable to play. Indeed - and I quite agree. Playing stupidly heroic characters didn't help, but you were unfairly doomed from the start. (I still think your Wizard could have gotten away, thanks to your [i]expeditious retreat[/i] spell... it's called that for a reason, perhaps? ;)) One of the real tricks in playing with a Killer DM is to recognise what they are. Then, whenever things look slightly bad, assume they're really bad and run for it. Safer that way. :P How long have you been playing with that DM? Cheers! [/QUOTE]
