Question: "Did you win?"
Reply: "There are no winners or losers in D&D. Only survivors and bodies. I survived."

Delemental said:You know, years ago I played in a long Basic D&D campaign. In that game you could advance until you became a minor god, then advance in the divine pantheon (the Immortal rules). According to my DM at the time, once you got to the pinnacle of immortal power, you could choose to be reincarnated as a normal person, and begin play again as a 1st-level character, with no memory of your previous life. If you could successfully go through this cycle three times, then ultrapowerful beings known as the "Old Ones" (probably something like Ao from Forgotten Realms) would come and take your character away to become one of them.
This was always described as "winning at D&D".![]()
