[crawl] bets on what kills me?

Archived from groups: rec.games.roguelike.misc (More info?)

My Deep Elf Conjurer has just reached the Temple, to swear himself into
Vehumet's service. He has a ring of wizardry, an amulet of the
gourmand, and has quaffed a potion of magic.

Any bets on how the game arbitrarily waxes him ten moves after I go down
to DL 5?

I don't know whether you intend it, but this is not what is sung. They
_are_ using peculiar grammar for "gebären", but it's not _that_
peculiar.

(1) yeah, sue me for possessing a CD with this song...

I'd bet on some unique with nice wand (lightning seems sufficient at this
stage). Not much though. ;-)

I lost my best character in recent memory (mountain dwarf fire
elementalist, iirc) to a spiny frog. They are very mean.
