D&D 40th Anniversary Blog Hop Challenge Day 6

First character death?  Aurelius Ranneldi Glorio Ledondo Branneli or Rann.  A 5th level Elven Bard with the Blade Kit from ADnD 2E.  He was decapitated by a Grim Reaper.

How did you handle it?  Todd, our DM made you work for every small thing you got, unless you were a player named Kurt.  He felt that every victory had to be dearly earned.  We'd been through a lot, well everyone but Kurt (he was a Thief with a Fighter's THAC0 and a lichslaying sword), so we were pretty deflated.  The following week we woke up as bodiless heads and were tasked with escaping...it was a long night.

Ashes Without Number

Even though my interest in the OSR has waned a bit I still really appreciate the work that Kevin Crawford has down with Stars Without Number...
