Killed by a hippo.
This isn't the first time, either.

What.

I'm going straight to hell for this, but I can't help but smile that the dwarf's nickname was Od.

What's wrong with using magma? That's almost always the easiest method.
I have issues channeling it properly to do that method. I end up flooding the fortress with magma.

I was chilling in a forest when a freaking GOBLIN came and ended up-
dismembered left hand
my (whole, lower, upper) right arm's bone fractured
guts spilt.
I won, somehow. But I bled out.
(yes- I just started playing that one.)

I was in the catacombs sneaking around when I accidentally disturb a mummy. He rushes into the room but doesn't manage to spot me (luckily). So I walk up next to him hoping to cut off his head with my Iron Scimitar. Well no shots are opening up for his head. (all difficult strikes) but at the same time it looks like I can stand next to him without any trouble of him spotting me. So I stupidly try to attack his arm in an attempt to check if I can attack him without getting spotted.

The answer: No I couldn't. Upon lopping off his arm he immediately spotted me, cursed me, and resurrected his arm. So I cut off his other arm. and then his head. Now I just had to fight both of the mummies arms. I stab one of them and then move backwards trying to only fight one at a time. Unfortunately I lose my sword in the process (the first time I've ever lost any weapon impaled in an enemy.) I manage to kill both of them with a nice throw of the zombies head/mangled corpse.

Yes I won! I pick up my sword and exit the door searching for the stairs back up. To retire my guy for a bit. (to get rid of his curse.) When I am suddenly mobbed by 3 peasant skeletons who proceed to bite/punch me. I move backwards and take a swing at one of the zombies but my sword just bounces off his skin. (now the curse starts to kick in) I then pass out from pain and take 10+ pages worth of zombies punching/biting/kicking my head in. (The only reason I survived for so long was thanks to a +Iron Helm+) Still didn't save me though.

Moral of the story: Don't mess with mummies.

So retiring cures the curse? That's sort of neat!

I had an entire army of Axmen, Swordsmen, Pikemen, and Crossbowmen. We went into a cavern and began a battle with a Cyclops. AND THEN A FUCKING BRONZE COLLOSSUS COMES IN TO RESCUE HIS BUDDY! We managed to kill the cyclops, but the BC destroyed every. Single. Soldier. I. Had. The BC was fucked up by the companions, like, dented everywhere, with one useless leg and one arm... Gone? I found the arm, and bashed the BC's head in. I then walked away, and went close to a cliff, alt+walked! and died landing on a tree.

I'm gonna take out my anger on elves, now.

Severed upper spinal tissue because someone punched me in the head. Skull didn't cave because of my steel helmet, thank goodness.

My hammerdwarf was starving, so i enter a tomb to see if there was food inside (wtf was i thinking?)

Find the mummy (a cheesemaker), he curses me, i hit him several times with the hammer to no avail. Then i take out my sword ( i happened to have one in the backpack, but didnt have any skill with sword) decapitate him on first try! Like a boss!
Then his skeleton army surrounds me and kills me :(


I enter a vampire lair. I proceed to attack the sucker as ussual, then a human child comes from behind and knocks me out. Then i die.

Im fighting a bunch of elf zombies in a tower. Got a few down. Then i dodge into a 1 z-level fall. An elf stabs me in the tooth. I die.

My last 6 chars were killed by lightsabers after killing an entire camp with only a copper knife. Then I decided to be Chuck Norris and be expert in kicking.

Mostly cheap shots by archers I can't see the moment I get spotted.

That, and I drowned one guy trying to get his swimming level up. Sucks, as he was probably my most successful hunter yet.
