Mobbed to death during a lag spike yesterday.
Where? Boss cave In the Goblin Dungeon in the Hullacks. Never been there; so just satisfying my curiosity if it's a bad as has been recently written.
Now that's lame behaviour ...

Ok my lame death story. frc just came back online ,for like the 4th time. Remake oglier crackpot. Oglier, kronos,and some elf I don't remember make a day of adventure. Like all new chats we decide to end it by going in gg well and coming out kobold cave. We stock up sally forth and bravely face all manner of low level evil. We climb out of the pit spell less, portion less, kit less but victorious. We head to great gaunt to trade or spoils for ale, beer, a nights rest, beer, and some real armor and weapons. Dragging one busted leg behind oglier makes for the gate, ok n his very last hit point. Miss click a chicken, which moves to attack back. Ever so not bravely oglier runs for the gate, step though, chicken follows pecks me once, critical hit dead dead. Death by chicken in the gates off gg.

So, those of you who have met Tagnar Oathhammer, know he is very much a non-Dwarfy Dwarf. He still has some dwarf trais though, that I do, like being able to sort out stone architecture. So one day, he and others run across the maze off of the Bramblewood with the minotaurs. We make it all the way to end, with Devas and summons and all kinds of kiting shenanigans. The chests...are trapped. We have noone who can detrap. So, the Lathanderite Dwarf being the good self-sacrificing fellow he is, decides he'll open it. We have healing left, things'll be fine. He opens the first chest and drops to half HP from fire damage. We heal, he opens the second chest, and dies, from holy damage. The Cleric of the Morninglord was slain by holy damage from a trap surrounded by corpses of smited foes...

So, trying to keep in the spirit of my character I decided to find a lame death attempt myself. Remember to always chew your food, FRC.

Found this and thought it would be fun to add and see others add aswell.
This is old vault times. Galrog had just fought a battle down in the well in the gaunt and split up from his party. He went to the inn got a room as he was very wounded and had no healing potions nor kits left. When he rested his endurance potion left him... And he died from his wounds in that room.

So wonderful time again. I was doing the ogre bandits by Suzail, was doing Awesome!...Until my summons killed me with a fire ball. Was fighting the boss and his pet spider, Boss casts the spell to knock you down and summons cast fireball. 60 pts of fire damage! Summons killed Sy. From experience I know this game has its issues, but sure would be nice if the summons just attacked instead of stand there trying to cast a spell to kill the summoner. Just a thought!

That awkward death when the mutant cockroach spawns invisible and you have to try to fight something else nearby and hope you get through that one and into the invisiroach before you have to heal again...and just die anyway.
Hrm... :/

So I haven't been here long enough this time to have any memorable death stories, but I *definitely* have some memorable kill stories from my days working on the design & build team of other servers.
In one, I had created a young red dragon encounter (designed for levels 7-8 but theoretically completable by some competent 5's or 6's) where the dragon was scripted to fly up randomly and land behind whichever party member was the farthest away from him at takeoff to prevent the party from hiding behind the melee the entire time. I had strewn the lair with bone piles and what not... spent a ton of time on it and couldn't wait for the first batch of players to fight the dragon. The party walked into the lair and triggered the two dozen skeleton warriors to spawn from the bone piles I had strewn the lair with without realizing that some bone pile placeables have the event already scripted on them to spawn skeleton warriors (complete with damage resistance to normal weapons, expanded crit range, and big 2h weaps) whenever anyone gets too close. TPK before the dragon even flew in.
In another, I had created a necromancer encounter that had 3 placeables that, upon a PC entering the room, would begin spawning randomly chosen skellies and zombies - the effect being that the necromancer was creating a horde of minions from the piles of the dead. The design intent was that the PCs would prioritize destroying the placeables to cut off the flow of undead and then go after the necromancer, but in case they thought to go after the necromancer first, I had also scripted an OnDeath event for the necromancer to cause the corpse piles to self-destruct and stop more undead from spawning. In fact, the only scenario that I didn't account for was the one that happened. A TPK. The adventurers died, but since the placeables and necromancer were still intact, they just kept on producing undead...and more undead... and more undead. The real victims were the video cards of the next players entering the room. I'm sure if it had gone long enough it could've taken down the whole server.

Lame death, hmm? Alrighty, how's this for embarrassing?
I'd only been an online NWN player for a few months (many years RPGing though). A small server with a great community and I found myself promoted to DM. Something I'd noticed one of the other DMs doing to spice up dungeons (especially for the occasional solo player) was to place a sole monster in a major lair (e.g. a lone goblin in a goblin cave), bent over ... and a trap right before said goblin. The idea being to warn the player that random traps had been placed throughout the lair (too many players would just rush through an area they were familiar with "x spawns there, trap there, etc.")
You know where this is going right? Yep, only a week or so into my DMhood, I saw one of our regular players with a new character heading off alone. So, I set up a few surprises for him. Only, he avoided at least one of them - meaning the trap was never removed nor triggered.
Two days later and I am running a new character through that same lair. Need I go on (no, the server's area-clean scripts didn't affect traps)? *shamefaced grin*

I just died with my new character in the border quest area to the first goblin spawn, on the first attack roll of the battle (they won initiative), to a non-crit.... And then the fugue plane spat me out into Greatgaunt... so I didn't even get to pick my bonus languages!

Well, I decided to progress onward while waiting for a DM to sort out her languages: I started with the rats in the Regal Griffon basement, and died to the mutated cockroach. I decided to get some revenge by using alchemist fire to firebomb all the rats in the barn instead, which worked well, but then the rat mother got an attack of opportunity crit on me when I decided to top up my HP just to be safe after bombing them....
3 deaths in... This PC is cursed.

Armias was killed by his own water elemental a couple of weeks ago. I had to laugh about it.
