If we dwell on the past, we don't have to worry about the future.   ;)

What of the people who killed the people who killed the people who killed him? What if they're still around?

No, they drop stuff if they get hurt enough too AFAIK

You sure? I believe nervous injuries (the spine) can cause everything below that point to no longer function.

That would explain the dropped crossbow and the falling over.  Looks to me like an interesting but misinterpreted gamelog.

Maybe, but I don't think the guard did it.

Yea, thats why I said it may have been misinterpreted.  It could have been anything from a kobold to a goblin.  That thought about guards of different religions sounds possible too, what with the civil war and all that happens when goblins kill their demon lord.

Edit:I'm only a dabbling speller.

As a test, someone should get a bow and shoot one arrow above their own position.  Just to see what will happen.

*you can't hit yourself/teammates.
*if npc is hit in the nervous part, he may drop weapon/shield/whatever he is holding
*if the npc is killed he can drop weapon/shield/whatever he is holding upon death
^- Tested.

I just did it.  It landed, undamaged, on my square.  That's it, I didn't get hurt.

Stop feeding trolls. They give stupid fakes back which make myths.

Do not feed the trolls.

All fear the displeasure of Dark! For years adventurers have been wantonly attacking him in moments of boredom, dwarves have been foiling his plans to obfuscate the subterranean depths with their accursed dark-vision, and the humans have used fire to hold back his shadowy embrace. But no more! Soon we will all feel his wrath, and not even the God of Blood will be able to withstand his mighty power, for even he will constantly stub his toes against doorstops, chairs and other various furniture that we mere mortal weaklings rely upon to make our lives bearable!  The sun will go out, and all will be plunged into the never ending nocturnal gloom forever cursed to painfully slam their pedantic digits for all of eternity!
