Bog Man
There once was a dwarf who lived in a bog
preferred the swamp to a cave
He hoisted the dead-men o’er his back
and thew them in the spring
A witch-nymph was not taken with this
she cursed him with a grip
Now his skin grew with vines and twigs
forever he should be fixed
No longer could the lad produce
grave-robbing has made him sick
a party he joins to plunder with aid
and remove the witches trick
Poor dwarf and “Peatey”, his bloated pet rat
so weighted down, his summoning choked with g

Our plane travelling Lord came from afar, sure to becoming our flame spurting star.
"We didn't burn them", as perhaps he should, for it would have burnt down that whole damn wood.
For in that forest against the spiders our hero did stand, but those nasty arachnids did bite him on hand.
He did smite them with lightning and rays, but in that dank forest he ended his days.
My elf sorcerer, joining the the party that evening, died in at the hands of the spiders in the forest, but he was raised.

I loved them and would've served them for rest of my unnatural life but they feared me, and left me in a hole. Such is the sad life of a Black Skeleton Warrior. We seek only love, acceptance, fellowship, and a successful singing career.
Maybe someone will dig me up, so I can love them.

Runniago

|
Always the first PC into combat in the run up game to the Beginning of ST. The party arrived at the camp, and mistakenly assumed it to be safe. The PC dismissed his summon due to it being large (Wouldn't fit inside most of The Camps buildings) and also being a terrifying urine yellow 6 legged super crab-horse beast. Not exactly a boon to the party's diplomacy attempts. Underestimating the an Giant, he died in the first round of combat to a full attack. He landed on the ground at - 27 hp. RIP

Sack-head
|
5
|
Sack-heads death was fitting to the n'th degree, you see, he wore a sack on his head. Awake and in bed, day and night, in taverns and in fights - he wore it. Never took it off you see, for his right and left hands could speak. But words nor axe could faithful prove to repel a green-gargoyle attack!
But ohhhh how parties are cut short! Twas self-inflicted with a botch. A fumble card then drawn to cause ones sack to be sever'ed and roll down the lawn. Ere in the Dungeon of Graves.

Sam
|

Tho' he could dance 'round foes on a whim,
Sam's fate, it seems, is quite grim.
Sure, he couldn't be hit,
But a big lava pit

Fell into a pit trap while fleeing an angry mountain witch. Left there to slowly bleed out to -10 by duplicitous jerk of a party member, who didn't help her out of there, which he could've easily. He then went to tell the party, who could've gone to help, that he didn't know where she was. Asshole.

Mouth of Madness Level 2B- Room 39
The party except for the mage and the elven ftr/thief were put to sleep by the trap, instead of using common sense and getting the party out of the room they continue to search for treasure. The elf then spikes the door shut (good move!) while the mage sets off the third sleep trap under the trap door. The mage fails his save and eventually the elf suffocates. Roll up new characters boys!
