Ebonfang: (Bill.Defranza@suntrust.com)
Werewolf, Werewolf, the Apocalypse
CAUSE OF DEATH: As alpha wolf, I was leading the pack in wolf form through dense jungle. I botch a spot check to notice the sheer cliff I'm running towards at full speed and sail right over it and fall about 400 feet to a splattery landing. Falling isn't aggravated damage, so I just need a few minutes to regenerate. Just as I'm well enough to stand again (with like, 1 life unit), I'm ambushed by 5 fomori, and torn apart before my pack can rescue me.
EPITAPH: Adding new meaning to "out of the frying pan and into the fire".
'Echo': 'Echo' Beckett (http://www.aleagames.co.uk)
Male Dwarf, D&D
CAUSE OF DEATH: On the first day of my new character, I was bitten by a werewolf, and was due to become one in seven days. However, the only way I could be cured was to reach a temple 24 days away. To fix the problem, my comrades set on me...
EPITAPH: Ashes to Ashes, Dust to Dust, The newbie was bitten, and sadly he lost.
Ed-R-MRO: Murray Keir (mjk@maths.uq.edu.au)
Male Free Enterpriser, Paranoia
CAUSE OF DEATH: We needed to go to another section to get rid of some rats. I put a small nuclear device I was given into another team member's backpack, set the timer and ran away. I complained to the Computer that a PC had an illegal device. I was ordered to go and arrest this person. Thinking I was a fair distance away, I walked slowly back. The blast radius was actually several kilometres. We did manage to get rid of the rats (and half the complex).
EPITAPH: Never use weapons without knowing their capabilities.
Edge: Joseph Rollins (rollins@tdstelme.net)
Male Fighter/magic-user L18, AD&D
CAUSE OF DEATH: Due to great stupidity casting a spell on a mirror, thinking that was the Evil wizard Morganwrath. Actually it was himself.
EPITAPH: Oops, wrong wizard...argggggg!
Eliander: Chigbo Ikejiani (shadowdancer@telusplanet.net)
Male Human Ley Line Walker, Rifts
CAUSE OF DEATH: Starship crash due to fellow crew member telekinetically ripping out engines.
EPITAPH: He wasn't picky enough, for once.
El Diablo Toasta: Josh Herron
Male Flaming Super Hero Crouton, Tales from the Floating Vagabond
CAUSE OF DEATH: Entire group was told to leave the building by a number of heavily armed guards. Toasta didn't listen. *Poof* Broken into crumbs.
EPITAPH: "I hide in the corner." .. (GM) "Your a piece of flying, flaming, bread product and you try to hide in the corner?" .. "He doesn't know that he's easy to spot."
Evil Chick: Rich Mitchell (bloodcat@99main.com)
Female Super powered Seductress, Heroes Unlimited
CAUSE OF DEATH: Our main hero was smitten with the evil chick, and the other player was mostly just drooling. I knew that justice had to be done, and this woman must die. Now, my 1st level mage could not kill her with any spell. Lightning bolts? But a scratch. Fire Walls? Nothing. So my alien mage lady from a high gravity planet cast paralyze on her foe, then walked up to her and cut her head off with a big bowie knife. I don't think we were supposed to have been able to kill her.
EPITAPH: Her looks were beautiful to all men. I am a woman. The arterial spray going where your head was supposed to be is much prettier to me.
Felix: Johnny Metal
Male Half-Elven Rogue, D&D 3.0
CAUSE OF DEATH: Felix was in a duel with a huge-ass Orc Fighter. He shot a crossbow bolt at the Orc, which the Orc caught and then used to stab poor Felix to death.
EPITAPH: In memory of Felix. [...There, we buried you, now stop haunting us! You can roll up a new character next week!]
Ferrill Quickblade: (http://members.tripod.com/~D_Little/)
Male Mutated Ferret, Gamma World 2e
CAUSE OF DEATH: Ferrill and party get into an ambush. Ferrill is hit in the head by a metal rock, but nothing happens. Once the fight is over, Ferrill decides that he wants to try to find that metal rock and see if he can figure it out. He finds it! Ferrill sniffs it, then he takes his sword out and pokes it! (BAD move!) Bartok sees his friend sniff a rock and poke it with his sword, wondering, "What in the heck is he doing with that rock?" When suddenly, a bright flash and explosion occurs! Where Ferrill was standing is now a perfectly formed circular bowl in the ground. Ferrill had disappeared! Ferrill was the victim of a photon grenade. (http://members.tripod.com/~D_Little/Games/GW/Death.htm)
EPITAPH: Bartok: "Curiosity killed the cat..Uh, I mean ferret".
Fiske: Mitch (the player's name) Jo (my name) (catwoman_147@hotmail.com)
Male Human Mage, AD&D
CAUSE OF DEATH: He was chaotic neutral. He also loved combat spells, but he was only first level. So, when he saw that group of peasants coming home from a hard days' work, he couldn't resist. He cast stone fist and charged. He also missed, and the farmers killed him with their pitchforks. On the first blow.
EPITAPH: The player- "I rolled that?!"
Frealaf: D&D Guy (D&Dguy@aol.com)
Male Wild Elf Ranger, D&D
CAUSE OF DEATH: Was underwater, polymorphed into a Sahuagin. His cover was blown while fighting real Sahuagin. When they retreated, he gave chase down a hallway he thought led to a safe exit...and instead became a (momentarily) living pin-cushion when the room turned out to be a barracks - the spears of 20+ sea devils hitting him at once...
EPITAPH: Just the look on the players faces - silently miming "Oooouch"
Frank Zentri: Matt (no address)
Male Hardware/ Mechanical, Heroes Unlimited revised
CAUSE OF DEATH: During a car chase, Frank had spent all of his ammo, oil slicks, missles, and more. His car was shot up bad. He dispatched a motorcycle with the car door. Frank had forgotten to remove his hand from the car door (picky gm). The trauma caused him to lose control of the vehicle and go off a bridge. Frank had forgotten to put on his seatbelt.
EPITAPH: How are we supposed to get home now? We loved that car!
Fred-R-DED-1: Jason F Murphy (no address)
Male, Commie Mutant Traitor, Paranoia
CAUSE OF DEATH: This character was my brother Andrew's, and he died a true Paranoia death! The party was stuck in some sewers and began to get quite ill. As Medical Officer, Fred distributed pills to the other players, then contacted the Computer for further instructions. He was asked "what colour were the pills?" "Blue. Ohmigosh! I'm a traitor!" He then put a hole through his head with a laser.
EPITAPH: He died with his [smoking] boots on!
Fredrick Harthrawn: John McGlothlan (junk@buildingalife.net)
Male Human Priest, Torg the Possibility Wars
CAUSE OF DEATH: Fredrick's group realized they had no offensive power against a ten story attacking metaloid. Fredrick called to his god for Realized Wrath. The clouds formed and lightning struck the beast twice before it finally fell. To Fredrick's surprise, a large spear protruded from his stomach. During his slow fall to the floor Fredrick turned and saw the three orc riders that rode around the building to avoid being seen, laughing at his dying corpse.
EPITAPH: To the Stormers I leave my book, may it bring you hope and love.
Gabriel Wagner: Draco Bloodglitter (draco@nconnect.net)
Male Antiquarian, Revelation (www.happynebula.com)
CAUSE OF DEATH: With his recent "procurement" of a rocket launcher Gabriel decided to blow up a bar. The first shot went off without a hitch. The second shot jammed in the barrel. Needless to say, it blew up. So did the rocket on Gabriel's back. So did the car next to him. Oops.
EPITAPH: Me: I rolled a one. GM: You know what happened. Me: What about the extra rocket? And the car? GM: Well, you got away with one. Then you got greedy.
Gabrielle (Gabby): Crystal Frasier (no address)
Female Elven Wandering Inventor (Warrior/Mage/Thief), AD&D
CAUSE OF DEATH: While on watch, Gabrielle spotted a wizard and his minions headed towards to party. She tries to scream to wake everyone up, only to discover the mage had centered a Silence spell on her. She threw a rock to wake them up an instant before he centered Darkness on her as well. Realizing the party was within range of the spells, she ran her spear through his rib cage before he could cast anything else. Unfortunately, her teammates had no way of knowing this between the darkness and the silence, so the mage cast a fireball to kill the enemy centering it (where else) on the center of the black sphere. The bard backed him up with an 11th level Flaming Hands spell. The dwarf threw in his help by doubling the blast (and damage). The saving throws for my magic objects and the mage's they all fail and explode. The only thing left was a 30-ft crater.
EPITAPH: I really hate you guys
Garak: Luke MacLaren (no address)
Male Kobold Thief, AD&D
CAUSE OF DEATH: Garak was chewed to death by a giant beaver (no joke). He was frightened by the site of such a large creaure and jumped into the arms of the fighter, who promptly threw him into the angry beavers path.
EPITAPH: Garak the cowardly will not be missed by anyone who know him. Although his thieving skills saved his "friends" many times, they still could not get past the fact that he hadn't bathed, ever. But he will be truely missed by the man who played him.
Gaven: Simon Foucher
Male Warrior (dwarf), AD&D
CAUSE OF DEATH: The level 1 party was in an old sewage system when they heard the sound of a troll coming. They decided to hide in the shadows and hoped the enemy would just walk by. When the troll came, it walked right passed them but suddenly stopped, sniffing. Everybody already realised what happened. Gaven, trying to be funny, had kept 100 smoked herring in his back pack...well...I'm sure they made a nice sidedish for a troll as he ate 'round Gaven's bones.
EPITAPH: "Next time, go for the canned goods."
Gil Abrax: No name
Merc, Noir
CAUSE OF DEATH: In an attempt to clear his name from a wrongful death charge, Gil sought to find the single witness that could clear his name. He found the witness...and unknowingly beat him up in a bar fight. He was fried the following day.
EPITAPH: The mug that you punch today could be the hand that helps you tomorrow.
Glorg: Michael Layte (mlayte@nf.sympatico.ca)
Male Gromman Fighter, AD&D
CAUSE OF DEATH: He and the adventuring group were attacked by a Roc on a narrow mountain trail. Being of great brawn and very very little brains, he was sure he could drag Roc down to the ground with shear strength... Well he didn't get a chance to find out how mistaken he was, because when he tryed to leap onto the roc's legs he totally missed and fell the 600 feet to the ground.
EPITAPH: "Come here you big turk-eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!"
Gorkill Underthroat: Randy Ping (randy_ping@webtv.net)
Duergar Dwarf ,Figter\Smuggler, AD&D 2nd Ed.
CAUSE OF DEATH: Never, and I mean never, tell your party to betray the Red Dragon and his Drow Buddies that hired you to steal the hoop that controls the Sphere of Anihilation. A poisoned dagger awaits your spine.
EPITAPH: Poor, poor STUPID Gorkill. (Idiot!)
GrayLeaf: Donovan Colbert (no address)
Male, Elven Fighter/MU, AD&D
CAUSE OF DEATH: Hopelessly outclassed by an ancient white dragon, we were fleeing as GrayLeaf turned to confront the Dragon. The rest of the party cast Passwall and GrayLeaf cast a Wall of Ice as the Dragon reared to use it's breath-weapon. Over his shoulder, Elidor saw GrayLeaf disintigrate in a spray of dragon-breath and shattered ice.
EPITAPH: Also an epilouge - In disgust the player tore his sheet to shreds and threw it into the fireplace.
Gegor Dragovich: Dave Hall (azaneal@hotmail.com)
Male Baali vampire, Vampire the Masquerade
CAUSE OF DEATH: Vampire troup was chaseing a group of changelings for the prince . went through a portal and fell in a moat of holy water trying to storm a fairy lords keep.
EPITAPH: Oh f***! 30 levels aggravated damage!
Gregory Starr: M. Nash (LN411@aol.com)
Male, Ship's Scanner Technician, Traveller
CAUSE OF DEATH: After being convinced by a spy disguised as a missionary to eliminate a fellow player character who had by all appearances lost his mind, Starr was overcome with remorse and terror at what the other player-characters would do to him when they came back to the ship, and shot himself. The spy's "humanitarian aid" was actually a crate of low-end weapons intended to start a civil war.
EPITAPH: Kindly humanitarians rarely are, you stupid git!!
Guarrand Montbank: Big Dave (bigdave285@yahoo.com)
Male Torg Monk (Lv 4), D&D 3rd ed
CAUSE OF DEATH: Fighting an "evil cave-worm" from the pool of water the party arrived from (underwater entrance), Guarrand decides to use some of his "special monk moves" (hey... he has an INT of 8). He decides to use an Improved Unarmed Strike in combignation with Stunning Attack... and rolls a critical failure, hitting himself. Then rolled another 1 attempting to remain concious. Despite the fact that the rest of the party easily dispatched the worm, it wasnt fast enough to save poor Guarrand from drowning.
EPITAPH: "Oh yea?... Watch This!"
