I was really having fun with this Naga Assassin. My best Naga and my best
Assassin so far. Stabbing around was great fun and I didn't find the slow
speed to be problem at all after the early game... until I ended in Abyss,
thanks to a weapon of distortion given by Okawaru.
I had some scary moments first with an Ancient Lich and the 1's it summoned,
but in the end the death was a stupid one. I got bored and frustrated about
running in the Abyss and took a stupid risk by stepping over a lava square
despite the fact that I'd started losing my buoyancy a while ago. Needless
to say, the levitation ended the moment I took the step.
Too bad, it would've been interesting to see how this type of character
would have managed Zot. I'd done the Lair and Snake Pit and was in the
middle of the Orcish Mines when Okawaru sent the farewell gift. The Elven
Halls and the Swamp would've been a breeze anyway.
