The Worst Ways To Die.

My group had been tracking a group of summuglers and we had finally found their hidding spot. They were only behind one door and my friend Drawcab decided he could handle this. He wipped out his blaster and dove into the room fireing blindly while doing gymnastics to avoid any returned fire. Not only die he miss every single person in the room he managed to shoot the celing, causing it to fall ontop of himself and us. He died but the rest of us lived out of sympathy from the Gm.

 

Another was my brother,Drawkcab, was using the force to pull one gaurds vibro pike out of his hands and to himself. Well he suceded but rolled like a 2 and instead of catching it it impailed him to the wall and ended up being shot to death by the gaurds.

 

After hearing for two sessions that the Jedi that my group have been badmouthing for 3 sessions were in fact wusses, they decide that a Jedi that captured one of the local mob bosses was one of them, and planned an ambush accordingly. Sadly, the Jedi in question was actually the players master, a 12th level Gaurdian/Weaponmaster/JediMaster Kushiban, that mauled half the party, before one survivor killed the rest by accidentally running them down trying desperately to escape from said Jedi. It certainly took them by surprise.

 

Well, this one really isn't from any RPs, but none the less, it was bad. Anyway, it was in X-wing vs TIE Fighter, I was was on the third level for the rebels. I had been chasing this TIE Interceptor, when this ISD started to enter hyperspace and slammed into my a-wing.

Then the second death was from an online RP and TrekWars: The Furry Conflict, my Clone Wars era Jedi (Horkon Sunskimmer) was fighting on the planet Reqrt Prime which is a world of ice, when my padawan slipped on the ice while blocking incoming laser bolts and accidentally sent his lightsaber through my characters head. *That's got to leave a mark!*

 

That is nice!

 

One of the Jedi in my group, (an unexperienced player I may add) was going to cross a bridge over a rather deep casm. The bridge was 6' accross. For some reason he rolled a DEX check to cross it! And got a 1!! So I very throughly explained that as he walked to the bridge he promptly went too far to the left and missed it by a few feet, falling to his dead. I explained there was no check needed and I was going to let him cross no matter what, but when he rolled a 1, it was all over. I let him make a new character at the lvl the rest of the party was at though. Man, we laughed forever over that.

 

Worst ways to die:

1. ejecting from your ship only to have the ship survive and most of the party die as their escape pods collide with asteroids
2. Wookie soldier holding one end of a rope with the other tied to a rung trying to trip over a rancor, ended up spending 3 rounds going down the rancors throat.

 

My player had a good char, and they got in a firefight that I expected them to escape. Dice rolls were bad, she died. It was the worst way - because of random rolls.

But she made a new char, and in our game we still remember her old char. And I'm incorperating her char into the new adventures.

(She was a smuggler type, and the PCs are learning that she had ties to their current advesary - a crimelord)

 

I don't have a worst way to die,but one time I was in an arena battle and I was fighting this guy on a raised pltform and if i fell I would definetly die....But I was Fghting this guy and I attaked him with my Longsword and missed,he took his Atack of Oportunity and unfotunetly for me he cut off my leg just above the kneecap...Well I got pissed and picked up my leg and beat the living doodoo out of him...Won the match and the GM gave me Cybernetic legs with Blaster Carbines inplanted in my legs!

 

The planetary governor was out on his yaht sailing about. Then an VSDII opened fire on a Corellian Corvette that fell...onto the boat.

Poor governor.

 

Haven't actually seen this in a game - it was in a SWATKats episode, though - but it would be amusing for the EOD (Explosive Ordnance Disposal) expert PC to open the bomb casing... and find that all the wires are the same color. That, or the bomb casing turns out to be airtight, and the interior is a vacuum... bad news if there's a secondary barometric fuse or a quantity of white phosphorous waiting for someone to do just that.
Another nice one was demo'd in one of the graphic novels... mad scientist (who wasn't a Jedi) laughs because Fett has a gun and he has a lightsaber... and the bounty hunter simply used the flamethrower. No, he didn't say "Deflect this", but it would have been so fitting...

 

At the end of a campaign a few years back, some fool of an Imperial Admiral awakens an Elder God from its slumber.

My character's final words: "OH DEAR GOD! THAT'S NOT A TENTACLE!!!!"

 

At the end of a campaign a few years back, some fool of an Imperial Admiral awakens an Elder God from its slumber.

Star Wars meets Cthulhu Mythos. Disturbing, yet so rich in possibilities. Waking up Cthulhu itself, while something you'd not really want to actually happen in a campaigh, does make a wonderful plotline seed.

 

My cousin made a thief character and decided that he would steal a Voorpak from a Voorpak breeding shop. (Voorpaks are small cute puffball like creatures that are considered great pets, but have a nasty bite.)
He was caught however and the Voorpaks were all set on him and he died being chewed up by the little fuzzy cuddley creatures.

He then started over with a new character, again a thief one. He decided he would hop aboard an X-wing fighter, shoot the Astromech droid and launch into hyper space right then. He of course hit a Gravity well and his ship exploded, we decided not to let him make another character for a while. . .

 

My friends, who live in another city, whom I don't get to roleplay with often, like to bend the rules a bit, when they see the potential for some fun.

We were on Geonosis, and we were all in speeders, running alongside this train-like thing that one of the GMs had made up. It was kinda stupid, so, the guy I was in a speeder with tells me to pilot the speeder while he does some heroic jump-to-train-from-speeder thing. As soon as he's off, I fly away. Then there were some antics involving TIE fighter, and one landing. I ask the GM if I can pull the speeder, which was now mine, INTO the TIE fighter. He pretends to check the back of the book and tells me that it IS in fact physically possible. I pull "into" the TIE (this speeder is bigger than Lukes landspeeder and has an EWeb on the back) and I threaten to blow it from the inside out if he doesn't agree to whatever I say. And so begins a terrible saga in which I am followed by the speeder's angry owner through hyperspace (yes, this TIE has a hyperdrive)

 

At the TrekWars: The Furry Conflict forum, during a large space battle between the Empire, the Rebel Alliance, the Romulans and the Federation, my characters Tandem X-wing was trying to out maneuver an Imperial missile boat when the x-wing slammed into a fellow squad mate's fighter.

 

Because my GM was sooo evil... I was smothered by a woman's.... you know whats... when I was sleeping. Evil GMs must be stopped.... Is that even legal?

 

ick!

 

Let me see...

So I was playing an evoker who really, really, really like da fire magic. He planned, one day, to use absolute immunity (fire) and permanency together. Unfortunately, before that day came, the party he was in battled a trio of mind flayers, one of whom "convinced" him to drop a fireball at his feet.

He did. Multiple times. On the plus side, he died happy.

 

This was actually D&D but it's 3.5 so I say it applies. My friend made an adventure where one of the NPCs as an Elf Barbarian with huge solid 18 carat gold axes. Seeing that he was fairly skilled with them we attempted to talk him into coming back to town because he was missing and the town as worried. So, my girlfriend who was a cleric had the best diplomacy skills in the group, so we put her on point. Her opening line? "Hey! Where'd you get those axes?!" We survived and hog tied him, but we always razz my girlfriend about her cunning diplomatic skills.

 

Just so you know, Wraith, your Try quote of Yoda is slightly wrong. There, now you have an excuse to go watch the movie again.

 

jumped into a hypergate that led into uncharted space unknowingly... it sucked

 

Held a prisoner out the window, then got blasted by several enemy wizards' fireballs. Survived the fireballs, but the building collapsed and I jumped to get away from it... out of the 4th story window. Falling damage put me at 0 HP, then an enemy fighter stabbed my unconscious butt in the back with a spear.

That really blew chunks.

 

My character was captured by General Veers and ordered to remain absolutely motionless; if he saw even a twitched finger I would be shot.

Then my EVIL GM said, "You suddenly feel an urge to scratch your nose."

I rolled the dice. I got a 1.

...Veers made good on his threat.

 

One of my players - as a Trandoshan soldier - decided he would try to bite through a StormCommando's blaster carbine.

It was good.
