Mysterious death

[nothingtosee]

Hi,

Wondering if this is normal or I hit a bug.
Discovered a place that people in the know will recognise from the log between spoiler tags.
Found a portal, didn't take it. Passed through a door, got hit by a trap twice (see everything about it in the log), saw some critters, decided to take the portal after all (note the 20 seconds between hitting the trap the second time and the actual death), went back the same way, tripped on presumably a trap that I passed over just fine before and find nothing in the log about the trap, at all. Just that I died. "Someone killed Leriel Siamyn". WTF?!?

Did you have some form of enhancement whose duration may have expired, such as an endurance spell or potion? If you did, then the drop in hit points can cause a character to die suddenly, and the system won’t give you a message stating this has happened.

[nothingtosee]

I might have had an endurance potion active at the time, but at full health before stepping on the first trap. The neg energy trap may have lowered CON, but after the hitting the trap the second time, the health bar was down maybe 10 or 20 percent.
I also mentioned hitting a mysterious trap, because I distinctively remember the spike trap animation.
Maybe there is something about that place that's intentional, just no initiative roll, no save, no nothing seems a bit like raining random death.

There are no-save instant-death traps in that dungeon. Not a bug.

To not make your life harder fluffy, I had a similar run of the place with valkan, where valkan died randomly in the room with the offerings while alamor was rping his respects to the god, spike animations shot out of the ground doing not damage but insta killing him from full health down to nothing. This happened a 2nd time down after opening up the way down, while again waiting on Alamor later on where Valkan was insta-gibbed randomly while standing still. There are traps like this there, but I think they may be miss firing as I know some traps started doing when EE first came out.

[nothingtosee]

Yes, I have a feeling something has happened to bounding boxes in EE. Leriel fell into a certain hole in an orog floor when he wasn't all that close to the trap.

Ariran sometimes crosses transitions she isn't even close to.
