eleven more characters : bringing the total to a round 50
update: Thirteen (#38) was killed by an ancient mummy king in a tomb being excavated by goblins. his last living experience was being wrapped up and sealed in a sarcophagus. Evidence suggests he is now an undead revenant minion of the mummy king.
40. Stronghand the thief (level 1) had awesome mutant powers and 18 strength which he never got to make use of because he died in his first combat experience. (because he was a thief, with 2 hp)
41. Pollard (level 2 fighting man) was a piece of shit henchman who lived long enough to become a PC, and then died almost immediately thereafter.
42. Remus (aka Grimace) (level 4 fighting man) was another piece of shit henchman turned PC, but he continued surviving, long enough to gain a couple morelevels. He has a magic shield, the least heroic magic item possible, which suits him.
43. Only Through Holy Myrc (blessed be his name) Is Salvation Made Possible On Earth (Othmismpoe) the first level cleric of Myrc is enthusiastic but as yet has not proven himself noteworthy for anything except perhaps his dumb name.
44. Lucky (lvl 1 cleric) failed to live up to his name when his face was melted by golden acid silk worms
45. Bourbon (level 1 fighting man) drank some water in the dungeon, found himself transported elsewhere in the dungeon without a light source, and died in the dark almost immediately if not sooner.
46. Bones (level 1 magic user) used his tremendous charisma to lead about a half dozen brave men to their deaths over the course of a week before meeting his own doom in the tunnels beneath the city of ziazmi. he was killed by a contact poison smeared on an invisible vase which he stumbled into (because it was invisible)
47. Harold Phalmos (level 1 thief) was torn asunder by moss creature
48. Chak-chack the crab-man (level 4) is one of the monstrous crab people who live in and around the city of Ziazmi. His crab claw appendages are no good for things like holding weapons, or turning door knobs, or picking things up without destroying them, but they're great at destroying things. He can't read or write or speak, but he dutifully serves his master, the elf Thimblegore.
49. Thimblegore the elf (level 3) is a fucking inhuman sociopath weirdo. Because he's an elf. He is going to adopt a child and raise it as his own. He hasn't noticed that Chack-chak can't talk.
50. Tony Toebones the thief (honorary* level 2) narrowly escaped death by amputating his arm when it was infected with horrible mutant larvae. Unfortunately his second brush with infectious disease did not go as well. He contracted the Cronenberg Plague which transformed him into a tentacled flesh monstrosity. His horrific second life was ended by Chak-chack the crab-man
*died before actually cashing in experience and levelling up
Remus/Grimace, Othmismpoe, Chack-chak, and Thimblegore are yet among the living.
