For those that don't know, Sorcerer Kings/Queens are some of the most powerful people on Athas.We somehow alerted her that we were there and she appeared near us in the room. Rather than run, or try to talk, or beg for our lives, the Half-Giant PC takes a swing at her with his Greataxe and manages to roll a natural 20.Although he got excited about it and thought he was badass, I groaned and luckily had the next initiative. So my Fighter/Thief tumbled past her and ran out the door to get as far from the group as he could.On her turn, she cast Chain Lightening and hit everyone except for me. The Halfling died instantly, the Half Giant lost an incredible amount of hitpoints and no longer thought he was badass, and I thanked my lucky stars that I had a good initiative because I would have died. We were then teleported out of the room by someone else and never did get our gear back.The Half-Giant was my characters best friend, and I had to remind him again how much of a bonehead he is. He got incredibly paranoid and tattooed his face thinking he was disguising himself because he knew he would be a wanted man.</blockquote>
