@XPtoLevel3 I was battling 3 cloud giants in an arena as a level 14 wizard. I got critted and my HP was low and me knocked prone. I thought it would be cool to "crawl away" for dramatic effect. DM imposed opportunity attack (obviously), and I had forgot because I was never in melee range....
@XPtoLevel3 ....Three mace slams later every bone in my wizard's body was crushed. I thought, ah well, I'll get healed. But I was attuned to the book of vile darkness, so my soul was now trapped by a kraken. We were in the Underdark and the arena master claimed my body and all possessions...
@XPtoLevel3 ....belonged to the arena. My party didn't agree and went on a wild murder hobo rampage killing everyone and everything. One of the characters got hacked to bits and died permanently. Going up against the kraken to get me back, another player got swallowed and melted in acid....
@XPtoLevel3 ....The kraken claims another soul. So now we had to team up with the freakin' Zhentarim and let them have all the loot, while we go save two of our dead characters' souls. We succeeded and paid 50k gold for the resurrection. 6 months later I got my character back...!
