chlorine the orcish barbarian was one of the most promising characters
I ever had. I took her to Sokoban, and this was the second time ever I
reached Sokoban.
The first level I did without problem, but at the second level I acted
a little bit too quickly, and misread the locations of the boulders,
hence I was unable to complete (actually I put only one boulder in a
hole...).
I was a little pissed up at this, when I saw a floating eye near me. I
wanted to pass my nerves on it, so I decided to kill it. I considered
going at it with my sword, but thought this was stupid because it would
freeze me and something else would kill me. Therefore I wielded a sling
I had, to go at it with rocks or stones. An _unidentified_ sling.
'The sling welds itself into your hand'.
Oh bother.
I had gotten two scrolls in Sokoban, I thought they should be nice
scrolls, so maybe they would be scrolls or remove curse. I read one.
'The ceiling crumbles above you' or some message like that.
I do not die because I had a helmet, but found myself totally surronded
by boulders, with no mean of pushing them away because I was in
Sokoban. I had no pick-axe (and couldn't have used one if I had because
of the sling). I tried my unidentified wands in the hope that one would
be a wand of digging. No luck there.
I winded up reading all my scrolls (including two other scrolls of
earth in the hope that the _ceiling_ would fall also and I coud fall in
another level) and quaffing my potions in the hope that something
miraculous would happen. Of course it did not.
After that I thought I would die of hunger. I ran into an orc, killed
it and ate its corpse. Well of course the corpse was poisonous and I
died a few turns after that.
Doh.
