Dying with grace...

[Dukug]

And how not to...

Prelude : My eyes and ears report that Erulisse is in Wolfie. I set up a blocker (Roll played by Howl) and proceed to hack and slash Erulisse to crit. She grabs a canoe and heads onto the water. Lucky for me, I had seen this coming and had already grabbed one of the two canoes available in the cave. The log picks up here :

I'm all for last ditch efforts to survive, but chosing to die on water is unfortunate for all involved. No chance at returning gear and no scalp for qpts. Hope to see you again soon Erulisse. On land preferably.

Gotta hoard those canoes so they can't try to paddle away! This log is also an excellent candidate for LOTM :)

I wouldn't like my gear, tps, or qps given up to someone who hunts smobbers and expers. Hooray Erulisse!

Thank you, my one regret is I didn't think to drop the canoe and drown, thus saving my gate codes.

Proof she is a df. Just didn’t listen and had to be punished.
