[QUOTE="Labmonkey-XL, post: 697851, member: 6927"] Inspired by a thread on RPG.net, I decided to find out what your shortest lived Characters stories are. This doesnt count for CoC d20 characters since we know why they are short lived. I'll go with mine first: A GM asked us to make a level 5 Character for a homebrew setting of his. I made a level 5 Paladin. The first session started with 4 of us, a level 5 Sorceror, a 5th level Half-Orc barbarian, a 5th level monk, and my 5th level Paladin. We were wandering through the forest on a dark and stormy night, and a hurricane was brewing. A fellow traveler told us to head for the nearest shelter because this forest was filled with evil at night. So we came across an Inn with a bartender, his daughter, a couple of traveling knights, and a two wandering drunkards. We had a couple drinks until a werewolf busted through the front door, and all of us, with the help of the knights quickly dispatched it. A halfling who was one of the drunkards said he saw more of them coming out of the woods, so we barricaded the broken door and windows with the tables. I realised I left my mount outside, and had to go bring him back into the Inn. Nobody would go with me. So i thought well i'll run outside real quick untie him and bring him back in. I walk outside and everything was fine, no sign of werewolves. I ran to where my Mount was tied up, and as I untied him i heard growling nearby. I lit my torch in the stables, only to see i was sorrounded by 5 werewolves. I lasted 2 rounds. :( Total creation time: 45 minutes Total play time: 20 minutes [/QUOTE]
