Generic (Totally Original) Fantasy Roleplay. Part III.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

I got killed by a gridbug....Yay for stupidity.

[Zaleramancer]

This will be the first death of many.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

It was my 26th death actually...I've been playing it all day.

[Zaleramancer]

So, how many dungeon levels have you gone down?

[Marvelous Miscreant]

Beats me...I've just been skimming text and pressing random keys most of the time. I'm not taking it seriously at all.

[Zaleramancer]

Has it been fun?

[Zaleramancer]

So.. recall the D&D game I was going to play?

My character is being mauled by a wolf.

This DM is without mercy.

[Mik_Hael]

stab he wulf in the eye and use it's confusion to sever the Larynx and I forget the name of the artery on the neck.

[Zaleramancer]

I can't.

My character is a squishy wizard.

The wolves have already knocked him off his horse, chomped on his hand and bit him.

And now one of them just started chewing on his face.

I guess he's functionally dead now.

[Zaleramancer]

Oh, and I tried casting a spell to let him fly away, but the wolves had already gotten to him.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

Meh...not so much.

[Zaleramancer]

Yeah.. There's a line between entertaining character deaths and just irritating ones.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

I was really playing it out of boredom more than anything.

[Mik_Hael]

Any team mates, if not, free up your mouth and cast fire ball on yourself, and before you burn to a crisp, fire shield or some other spell that prevents fire damage. With any luck the wolves will burst into flames or at least run off, and you'll just loose all of your hair and have a few secondary degree burns.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

I'm pretty sure that wouldn't work.....It would kill him even faster.

[Zaleramancer]

This is my character sheet.

The thing is, if I cast a spell without casting defensively (Which requires a concentration check that may fail and loose the spell), then the wolves get an attack of opportunity. All said attacks will likely hit me and kill me.

[Marvelous Miscreant]

With the amount of damage I'm sure he's suffered already, that fireball would just kill him. Besides, he said the wolf was eating his face and so he could not use his mouth.
