I just went to play AD&D again and yet again im feeling very angry and sad..
OK, here`s what happened - The other night i made a minotaur, and he was absolutely great at fighting(THACO 12, +12 to Damage, 87 HP). We killed an Earth Elemental(Random Encounter) and maybe some other monsters, but then we met a White Dragon. That white dragon killed me(with his breath doing 12d6 +12 Damage every round) and another from my group but the others survived and killed it. The other dead party member was resurrected while i was not because she was more strong(i was lvl 4(due to all the previous deaths) and she was lvl 6). Then i made a human mage because he fit well with my shitty stats.

Now, the part that makes me so f***ing sad and angry, is the exp.. Each party member, except me, got 6800 exp for all the killing(the dragon gave 19500 exp!!!). Our DM makes it so that if i make a new character he has one half of the previous chars exp. Right now, i have a total of 4965 exp while ALL the other players got 6800 exp, which was added to their total..

im just very pissed off right now

.. I have but a weakling that stands admist powerful beings.. its only a matter of time till i lose everything and die again..
