Default Re: Unforgettable Moments

Nice stories. And, that's a great trick with the summoned troll!

I've written about other great moments on other threads. E.g. the time I set my own mummified hero on fire via an oversight, thus losing a major battle, since he was the only one leading the huge army of undead and demons which was supposed to wipe out miasmatic C'tis. I'd started him out in the middle of my devil brigade... oops. Or, the time Henric my cursed priest won the arena deathmatch, to go on to become a heroic melee combattant.

Just tonight, I had a memorable moment against Pythium. They kept casting Wrath of God even after I dispelled it, and the Last casting resisted my dispel so it must be rather strong, and I was having to live with it. While battling their armies on two fronts and having to suffer constant losses from lightning strikes, I sent my magic-item bedecked succubus Fanelle hunting for the caster. She eventually snuck her way to Pythium, and finally, tonight, she found Coriolanus the Arch Theurg Prophet, who wasn't at all interested in her dream games. He was a serious wizard with Fire 1, Air 4, Water 4, Astral 6, Holy 5, Quarterstaff, HP 24, Strength 21, Attack 21, Defense 21, MR 23, precision 19. He cast quickness. Fanelle swooped in and he staved her off (repel staff bonk for a bruise) and then smote her, destroying her magic shield, crippling her arm, and taking her from health 30 to 4. Then she gutted him with her magic sword and he exploded in a huge bath of holy flames... which fortunately didn't snuff her out. Whew! Nice job, Fanelle! The lightning is over!
