[QUOTE="Agent Oracle, post: 3103802, member: 40076"] As a PC, i have seen a grand total of ONE PC on PC death. I caused it. I was playing a questing knight searching for a magical beast (Backstory) I joined the party and explained my backstory to the party. The wizard (played by a 13 year old) said "There's no such monster!" I intoned, "Indeed there is! I've seen it with my own eyes!" The wizard said "No, you're wrong! I cast Magic Missile!" The GM looked dumbstruck. I did something awful, i hijacked the DM's power and said "Are you sure you, a low-level wizard, want to attack a friendly knight in heavy armor with a great big axe while within an arm's reach?" he said "Yes! and i do..." (roll) "4 points of damage!" "Alright. I step back five feet, draw my axe, and challenge the Wizard to a duel. I tell him to arm himself." The DM is still shocked. I explain to the player "I'm a knight, i have a code of honor that means i have to fight fairly, now, I'm giving your wizard a chance to arm himself before I attack him. Oh, and roll a will save please. It's not a big deal, but if you fail, it activates my special ability." The player rolls, and pases his will save. And then casts another magic missile at me for five points of damage. I'm hurting, so I do what comes naturally. I step forward, and hit him with my axe... and roll a natural 20. 3d8 + strength damage later, the wizard is very, very, very dead. and his player is pissed at me for having killed him. The GM has an NPC step up and resurrect the wizard. I slapped the wizard in manacles and explained that the guard of the next city would deal with him. [/QUOTE]
