[Russ Taylor]

"Hold my ale while I do this!"

[Mathias Pitheld]

Don't worry, I've got a plan.

Also: It's only DC 10...

[Aardvark Barbarian]

They were in a very old issue of Dragon (like 15+ years ago I'm sure)from what I remember as I have old issues of Dragon that had more sent in by readers of the original.

My favorites were:

"Maybe it's intellegent. I'm gonna try and talk to it."
and
"No problem, it's just another Gas Spore."

(for anyone that doesn't know, the Gas Spore was a monster that looked like a beholder, but was just, well, a floating gas filled ...spore)

[Bill Lumberg]

"They're just kobolds."

[GM Wulfson]

The famous last words of Socrates:

"I drank what?"

Chris Knight (Val Klmer) from Real Genius

[Sphen86]

Dude, it's an animal. I can totally calm it down. Besides, it's not like it has rabies or something.....

He was right, it didn't have rabies. It had something worse.

[PlungingForward]

"What does this button do?"

"Hold on, guys - before we leave I'm gonna stick my head in the green carving's mouth and see if we missed anything."

[Mario Podeschi]

"Looks clear."

[roccojr]

"Its 3am.... time to do something stupid." - thus activating a Sepia Snake Sigil...

Just before a TPK of a 6th level party

"Demi-lich, that means it is less than a lich, we can take on that"

(a demi-lich is a CR 23 creature)

[Aardvark Barbarian]

"No problem, I can only fail on a 1"

[Misery]

"I don't see a duck."

"Dwarves are taking me drinking!"

"We should dress up as zombies and scare the paladin." (he cost them some money on a job)

"I climb down the rope!" (he never tied the other end off >_<)

I think you might win.

[feytharn]

"I shoot with my grappling gun and climb up the Rancor"
Yes, that really happened in a Star Wars Game I ran...

[Chubbs McGee]

Old Dragon magazine article on Famous Last Words:

The wizard player turns to his party and says, "Guys, if you killed my character, you'd have enough experience to level..."

I think that was how it went. It was a really, really, really old article!

But with your fast metabolism you can always eat another one.

"I bet I can seduce her, and wrap her around my little finger..."

"That Succubus looks so hot!"

"You can't hurt me. I drank a Potion of Invulnerability." (Was Potion of Invisibility, player couldn't read).

"What are the odds someone is going to fireball me while carrying all this blackpowder?"

[Andrew Besso]

"How can this not end well?"

(Said sarcastically - the player was anticipating trouble...)

"They're undead. $#!*@@" (WIzard with about one hitpoint who had just done a color spray. Kinda my fault.)

[Threeshades]

"I go back two squares and throw a dagger" - rogue with low HP standing 1 square distance from a Boneclaw

[Ambrosia Slaad]

{holds up seemingly dead critter:} "Look, it ain't even cut up or bloody or nothin'!"

(Apologies to Jeff Foxworthy)

[Larry Lichman]

This one still comes up in our gaming group, even after 3+ years:

Flynn the Great (my 3rd level Rogue in the Age of Worms AP) after failing his save from a Bodak's death gaze:

"That was rude."

[Midnightoker]

"I use my standard action to heal myself with the wand and then I use my move to fly straight up" -- Player

"you mean the wand you gave to him?" -- DM

[Dragonborn3]

"Don't worry, it's just a pseudodragon..."

[W E Ray]

"Hey Pit Fiend, your momma's a Marilith!"

"Don't worry, that Golem won't survive my Sneak Attack damage; he'll be toast before he gets his turn in initiative."

[Torillan]

"I wonder what this does..."

[Gandal]

Think this is happened to all of us sooner or later, but it is always nasty ; my wizzy in the old edition on D&D when Saves were still Death ray/poison - Wands- Paralysis/petrify- Breath weapon-Spells/rods/staff

"don't worry, with my bonuses i can only fail this save on a natural "1""

[Pual]

In a game of Blockmania i said something along the lines "well if i somehow roll less than 7 on 5d6 my block collapses and i lose..."

i then proceeded to roll 5 1s.

[Dragnmoon]

For some reason this line came up alot in my Vampire: Dark Ages game...

"Is that normal?"

[Phazzle]

Wizard (to the barbarian)

"Well actually, a Mimic could really look like just about anything."

[Dragnmoon]

My Last Home Game..

Player: I wonder why the crossed the river?

Me GM: To get to the other side

[Prince That Howls]

“You guys are a bunch of cowards, I’ll open the door!”
Followed immediately by…
“Derp!”

[cibet44]

After a lich retreated from the party:

"Lets go after him he can't have any spells left."

[Sheboygen]

In my recent Kingmaker campaign:

"I am Kerebus, Cleric of Gorum, and your inevitable doom!"

Moments before one Worg took him to ground, and another tore his throat out.

[Luna eladrin]

"Wait until I run you through with my sword!"

Aa player who was taunted by a kobold, and charged at him. Unfortunately the kobold was standing 5 feet behind a well hidden pit trap with poisoned spikes.

[Havelock]

"First one to die rolls a Cleric." - Traditional Mantra

Not always last words, but very tempting.

[Irrlicht]

"Never!"

A Tiefling Rogue (PC) in response to an order to surrender pronounced by intelligent Skeletons; followed half a round later by a crying supplication of mercy.

_______________________________

"I'm going back to take my gear!"

A Human Rogue (PC, same player as above), after being freed from a Drow prison, and before meeting a Drow High Priestess face to face while being unarmed, wounded and alone.

[Xpltvdeleted]

"Throk kill!!"

Uttered by my 3.5 half-orc barbarian Throk. Poor Throk, due to rolling for stats, ended up with a 16 STR, 8 CON, and 3 INT (and sub-par everything else). Upon seeing the party's objective at the top of a hill (and not realizing the significant disadvantage said hill would put him at), and tuning out the rest of the party while they were planning the assault, Throk got bored, hefted his greataxe, and screamed his famous last words as he raged and charged the hill. He actually made it to the top and took out one baddie before dying :(

[TheDisturbed1]

*checks character sheet*
"What was the DC again?"

and

"I lay down on the hood of the AT-ST to make it look like Im a Wookiee-skin rug."

Yes, a player really did that in a SWSE game I played in once.

[J.R. Farrington, Esq.]

"Listen, there's no way there could be any more ________'s in here..."

Regularly stated by one player in my ongoing campaign where the blank has been anything from spiders to wraiths, or whatever else just nearly killed them.

[psionichamster]

"Don't worry, it's got what, 10 hp left?"

"Ha, ha, it's a Goblin..."

"I jump in the treasure pile!"

"Wait, guys, I got this one."

[KaeYoss]

"Nah, you can't disintegrate yourself!"

"Who's the b&*!~ with the spider fetish?"

"Hey, Orcus, yo momma wears combat boots!"

"He has to be a god to smile after that hit!"

"What's the worst that can happen?"

"'Beware, NOTHING ahead'? Sweet, I sprint ahead" (Nothing was a sphere of annihilation)"

"So he stepped into the sphere and disappeared? I step in, too!"

"I never get lost"

"A sphere of blackness? I stick my head in to see if it's dark inside, too!"

"Toss me the grenades!"

"Hm... I seem to have a skill named 'climb walls'" (After just jumping out of the window. 80 feet straight down. Into an icy cold, deep sea. Character couldn't swim.)

"What do you mean, 'Power word kill on your *Familiar*?'"

(Uttered by the "Familiar", who was actually an imp psion fooling the wizard. The wizard waited for the whole campaign to get revenge for this treachery. The campaign was over, the GM told us the great things we'd all accomplish in our future. Then, the wizard uttered the magical words: "So the campaign's over? Power word kill on my 'familiar'")

"Something looking that ridiculous can never be a threat."

"You hit like a girl" (To a god's avatar, after barely surviving a full attack with below average damage rolls)

"This always works."

"Trust me."

"We don't need to post a watch"

"Look at that elf's sunburn!"

"We got a wish? I want a sandwich!"

"We got a wish? I want all my shit back!" (Uttered by an elf who lost all of his equipment. He didn't get that back. It seems that over the centuries, the bowel movements do add up...)

"I'll scout ahead."

[KaeYoss]

"Watch this!"

"Now what, mister fancy pants?"

"It can't do that again!"

"He seems trustworthy."

"You'll never catch me alive!"

"Stay back, I'll handle him by myself!"

[KaeYoss]

"We don't have a rogue, the GM would never trap that chest!"

"Was that thunder or were you rolling damage?"

[A Reptile Of Radiance]

"Your days of terror are over, mischievous Wizard!"
