PC Name:Lucius Vorenus (Paladin 6th)
Adventure: Hall of Harsh Reflections (D7)
Catalyst: Beat down (HP damage)
After seeing his companion (HalfOrc Barb. 7th) go down our hero summoned his mount (being on the starting shore and the Barb. being on the far shore next to the door)(mever mind summoning a mount in a warehouse.(I let it slide)) and rode his mount through the swords and pikes and axes and spears and etc. to the far shore (his mount near death) leaped off his horse and poured a healing potion down the Barb.'s throat. The next round he took four hits from two Ivisable Stalkers. One hit being a critical (47 hits). On his next turn Lucius pulled another potion from his backpack and poured it down the Barb.'s throat provoking an attack of Opp. from both Stalkers. On the stalkers turn they pummeled him to death. His last words were "I forgot to heal myself" (P.S. the Stalkers pummeled his horse to death after he expired to add insult to injury(or death) and the Barb. was almost killed as he reached for another potion of healing from Lucius's dead corpse)

PC Name:Abel Horawitz (Dwrf. Wiz. 4)
Adenture: 3FoE
Location: Labyrinth of Vecna
Catalyst: Wrong Place at the wrong time
Having defeated one group of Kenkus the party ventured further into the Labyrinth. They were quickly engaged by a pair of Dire Weasels. Abel took up a position behind BOTH fighters, but unbeknowst to him another group of Kenkus came through a secret passage behinde him. The first Kenku got off a shot and rolled a crit kill (We use a slaying critical rule: 20,20, confirm hit/rolled in front of players after the first 20) Death by crossbow bolt!

Heh, I had the same problem. I made up a metal called "Gehenna Mithral"(+2, double crit. dam.). It must be "Hell forged" ie. it must be taken to the Plane of Gehenna and forged in "Hell" fire. The Paladin in my group wanted to make a long sword out of it, sooo, I had Eligos summon a major demon to take it to Gehenna and have it forged. Unfortunatly for the Paladin he saw part of the exchange (a virgin for the metal to be forged). He is now in prayers... (but still hoping to get his sword)

hmm, I jut put the treasure for the encounter in one chest and had the other ones empty. The snare traps were bypassed by Hishka (being the only lizard folk left alive) so she could save the eggs. The party did live up there word this time.

Lots of good stuff. My players Bluffed there way in by bringing supplies form Smenk. They took out Hextor's side in two forays. They left the mines and came back with more supplies the next day. (25 bluff on a natural 20). They went to the Grimlocks next. I allowed them to camp on the cliff top before they went down the cliff, but after they had defeated the grims and left the mine to regroup and rest in town I had a group of Kenkus come out and guard the elevator. (because there were no Hexorites guards and there was an over flowing mound of supplies in the Dark Cathedral. (One less group in the maze, but I upped the difficulty to a higher level party as per the side bar). I also added an extra Ebon Aspect after the first.

Well, your party of adventurers sounds like mine (Kill 'em all). I tried my damnist to get two lizardmen to run away after they killed the one with the kyus worm in him, but they hunted them down and killed them. (They didn't get 10 ft. out of the room). The Dragon egg (which they were goning to loot) I had them make balance checks every ten feet. Eventualy one of them failed and "Oops, you dropped it!"
