I was once beating up gophers, when one of them bit my adventurer in the groin, causing her to pass out form pain. The gopher spent the next TWO DAYS game time chewing on her face until she finally bled to death... I was truly mortified.

A horse ran up while I was out in the wilds. It got first shot and kicked my head in, before I could do anything.
Those horse ninjas.

You posted that some time ago, and somebody posted that picture I am unable to google up or describe...
You know which one.

You mean this one?

Really, you've got to watch where you go when there are large ungulates about.

I fought a demon.
after an epic battle, with my bros getting torn apart, I killed him.
Then I fought a wild boar.
He bit my sword hand off, and then mauled my face with his bitches. (They were all females)
I raged.
ALOT.

I jumped off a ramp in a cave and exploded.

I took a hippo skin into a tomb, the mummy raised the skin and it exploded my skull by "pushing" my head.

I just had probably my goofiest death in recent memory, and it just so happened to be in Eric's fort "The Maze of Glory."
Long story short, I pick the lock on interesting looking door, peek in, and a torrent of magma pours out onto my face. So I'm on fire and thinking "must get out of lava" and maybe I'll be alright...

Ah, yes, I thought something was amiss. Now I see. There's not enough terrible things in the lakes.

I got down to the caverns through a kobold tunnel system and tried to burn one of the trees down with a campfire. I pressed the wrong button and got stuck between the campfire and the tree. Like a dummy I forgot all about DFhack and ragequit the entire world. I hadn't even been in the caverns for 5 minutes by the time I got stuck.
Couldn't you have waited for the campfire to go away?


Campfires last a really friggin long time, and you cant wait while underground.

Hahahaha! Oh gods, I didn't think my grand trap maze would ever claim a victim, what with none of it having been linked up yet. Congratulations on being acknowledged victim #1 :P

This isn't exactly pathetic, but I find it fitting for this, though I savescummed like a bastard afterward:
I woke up with my total badass adventurer surrounded by about 30 goblins. This wouldn't be a proble, but one of their archers had shot my throat out.
While I was sleeping.
I killed them all, bled out, and then savescummed, walked into their ambush again, and kicked them until all their bones were broken and then killed each of them.
Revenge is sweet.

I had a powerful dwarf hammerman in full steel armour, who had slain a bronze colossus. A fucking wolf bit his throat out in one turn of combat.

Yeah you can wait while underground. Press shift+Z. You just can't fast travel. Camp fires usually go away after waiting/resting on-site with them.
