Mine is when my party was fried by call lightning by the Shadow Druid fighting trolls. (relatively low lv party) I just happened to be at the right place at the right time to get fried by the lightning that the druid called to deal with the trolls. My swashbuckler was fried in 2 succession of call lightning...I thought it was the troll right next to me to add in sult to injury... :D

I was like, Gobsmacked by the death animation. :D

Post your most embarrasing death here, it is NOT about mocking you for being NOOBish, but just for a hearty laugh and refections [img]smile.gif[/img]

Hmm, I think it would be at the same time that I discovered Sarevok's DA ability. I completed the first challenge but my character was dire charmed/dominated or something so Sarevok walks up to him and BOOM! He deals 200 damage to my character and he flops to the floor. I was just sitting there speechless wondering wtf happened...</font>

Getting turned into a squirrel right in front of Mencar. My wild mage moved too close to him while casting a spell, then the wild surge zapped me. He killed me pretty quick after that.

Also, walking into the insta-death trap in Chapter 4 THREE TIMES IN A ROW. Forgot the first time, was not quick enough to catch the character's bad path route the second, then was not watching as the character chased a fleeing Yuan-ti the third.

• Cast a Spell Sequencer containing 3 Flame Arrows at the same time the enemy casted Spell Turning.</font>
• Forgetting about a trap in a dungeon and getting a spike up your a**.</font>
• Getting caught in the explosion of 6 Skull Traps which you had casted earlier.</font>
• Having a ToB NPC dire charmed and proceeding to KO the rest of the party( it didn't help that he had an ability to dish out 200 damage).</font>
• Meleeing an Adamantium Golem with a Sorcerer.</font>
• Mephits and an unconsicious solo Kensai on Insane Difficulty.</font>
• Red Dragon's Fire Breath Attack.</font>
• Lightning Bolt in a small, small room/tunnel.</font>
• Etc... ...</font>

The most sorry about one death I was in the sewers against the sewer bandits. My main fighter, he had an AC of -8, got feared by the mage so he went off wandering around. He met some GIBBERLINGS. One scored a critical hit and boom! Fighter in bits and pieces....

there is no more shame then getting your tank clobbered by gibberlings...

I once came back from a dungeon rather beaten and was on my way to Cromwell when my PC (had only 1 or 2hp left) was attacked and killed by...Habib!
Now THAT was nasty.
Also not so nice:
+ casting area effect spells targeted on a phase spider.
+ having a lightning bolt go awry and instead of hitting the foe in front of you it bounces through YOU from left to right several times
+ having to watch your character die after a finished battle because there is not antidote/slow poison/healing potion/healing spell left
+ whacking enemies within my own web spell and switching from Spider Bane to Sarevok's sword of chaos.
+ casting agnazar's scorcher on an attacking enemy with a mage in the back row.

heh...i've tried that a few times...only thing is one time i won :D
(adamantium golum: about 5 ; Sorcerer: 1 yippie!)

well i did one time have my entire party turned female due to wild magic, before being clobbered by demons (female minsc is HOT!!! :D )

i've used sunfire in a despirate situation, taking out every single party member i had...but my sorcerer...

then there was the time i was having a little chat with firkrag....i clicked the wrong spell on the wrong person.....just call me squirril man from now on (he's previosly cast greater malison on me...i hadn't a chance..)

oh...a good one was when i used ice storm, and froze myself....

The 25th time I tried to disarm the trap in the gauntlet wasn't too bad until I found this site.

The dreaded spell-casting squirrel.
