Arrr, 'twas plunderin tha enemy's stronghold an killin them at will, when one o' the cowards ran fer his mystic hidey-hole. I turned meself about when tha chase was lost, but it seems me heels be touchin' the platform after all, an it struck me down in an instant with mystic fire.

Several deaths, from different games. All from games I just started playing today :P

-------------------------------

Got a quest to enter a neighbor's basement and kill these slime-like things. I'm thinking "No problem, it's only a level 1 quest (I assume) and I have a little girl by my side!"
Slime-like things. EVERYWHERE. Sure, most die in just a hit or two, but the two of us are getting swarmed from every side - even from areas we already cleared. Thankfully, my companion is pulling her weight, and I begin pushing forward down a long, narrow hallway, slaying creatures as I go. I get so caught up in the moment that I failed to realize just how close I was getting to death up until I actually died. Death message: "Ohgodwhat"

Newly spawned character enters a cave with pretty much nothing. First thing I find? A two-handed sword. I think to myself "Sweet, that should come in handy!".
I do battle with a couple of carnivorous plants, nothing major. Then I fight a kobold, who chops my right arm off. I punch him to death and then equip a balsa spear I found. A short time later I lose my other arm by getting stabbed by a large porcupine.
So now I'm traveling through the very first dungeon of the game (so far as I know) and I'm already armless. Thankfully, my character apparently has biceps of slade, as he begins to OHK everything he meets by kicking them (I blame the pair of bronze boots he found). Things begin going fine, and I'm starting to wonder if maybe I'll find a way to regrow my missing limbs...and that's when I lose a leg by trying to escape a spider web. Now I have to resort to biting everything, which leads to some interesting moments when I tore a jackal's throat out with my teeth. My character eventually just kinda keeled over, presumably from all the spider venom and bleeding wounds he was suffering.

Started out very well: maglight, a fully-automatic Glock, and two extra, fully-loaded magazines. I'm shooting sentry turrets and flying tasers left and right, and I even managed to find two audio tapes, but then I make a misstep and plummet five stories to my death.

In IVAN, just pick up your limbs. Go guess the rest.

Though it seems it does not work, if you got no arms it says you need 1 (paradox?). And if you got 1 arm it does not work :/

I was a powerful character. I have slain Jenny. I have traversed those cursed caves of gloom. I have a full suit of armor and a deathly looking spear along with a freed slave. I am a lawful character.

I am hungry. I am out of food. I am miles away from any viable source of food.

I think I had a pretty good run going, at least for my second character :/

Copper helmet. Steel boots. Leather gloves. Belt of Carrying. Ring of fire resistance, ring of Searching. Cloak of electricity resistance. Hard leather armor. Amulet of ESP. Meteoric iron two-handed sword with 8 ranks in large swords and 9 ranks with this sword in particular. Lots of food and scrolls. And then I just had to pick a fight with some giant mobile plant that I saw in a closed room via ESP. Got one arm critically wounded in the first attack, ran away. Several more carnivorous plants sprouted while my arm was still wounded, completely surrounding me. Since I couldn't use my sword, all I could do was punch futilely as they first ripped off one arm, then critically wounded and destroyed my torso.

Crusaded for Jerusalem, got the highest war effort after a single battle. Fatimids invaded for Jerusalem, where I had given my heir and his heir some land, so I could give it out later after I had converted it to Catholicism. They took the ducal tites, but not most of the county ones, so they were still there. Fatimids converted them to Islam. Cue Islamic Ireland. I'm guessing that decadence is calculated each month for every dynasty no matter if they have any people of a religion that actually uses the mechanic, so I had 100 decadence and Hashishins killed everyone. Them and Scotland.

Did not manage to escape a run-of-the-mill random encounter. They killed me swiftly in the second turn.

I had made it through the Underwater Tunnel, and had been sent to the Cave of Gloom to clear it out. I was going through a room, looking for stuff when BOOM! I stepped on a mine.

Checkpoint while I'm in the sights of two Nazi soldiers on the second-hardest difficulty. Ended quickly.
