Okay... so here I am, a 7th level wizard who had learned the use of a goof invisibility. I've used them to scout the haven mines repeatedly. I've been in there lots of times, have seen the opposition, and have mapped out my prey. I have to bring back a head. Okay, here it goes. I go in,cast summon animal and shoot a fireball while the summons is running toward the target. Fireball against ogres... not as good as I'd hoped.
My next spell doesn't work as I'm hit by something, and I am able to get a polymorph done, hoping that I can kill it as an Umber Hulk and then invisible myself again and get out. Nope... I died horribly... they had critical hits and I had misses.
So I come back to life in Hlint and I rest and meditate forever... until finally I am feeling well enough to go out once more. I wander around the forest, bump into orcs and goblins and do them in, meet a trade and buy some gloves from him, and then I decide to check out the red light caves.
Goblins are harmless... right?
So I go in, all invisible and stealthy, and I craftily use my magic missles, lightning, and fireballs to kill whenever the mood strikes me. I go all the way down to the bottom and up again. I am one level down when I am out of spells. So it is time to rest. I do so and I am ready to go. So I inviso again, waltz into the room and there is a large group of goblins... I blast them with a fireball, killing all but four. My familiar and summond dog go to work on the other four. I figure, this is cake now... four goblins... no problem, and I think about looting bodies while the animals clean up shop.
Wait... what the... my familiar is attacking me! Being a lowly wizard with no armor and low hit points... I was done in with three quick swipes from my own familiar before I knew what the heck happened.
Okay... so reappear in Hlint at the bindstone... and, for some reason... I don't know why, I chose to go back to my demise site... mistake number one, because it isn't a long walk to the grave from Hlint anyway and I am also giving up the gravestone option. So I made a big mistake with a knee-jerk reaction of "getting back into the action", but it gets worse... the site that it sends me back to was the HAVEN MINES!!!!! Since I died in the Haven mines I've saved repeatedly and have even logged off and on about three times!
So there I was, in the Haven Mines, waaaaaaaaaay underground, with two inviso spells left and walking VERY SLOWLY because now I am severely encumbered.
I manage to get out and back to Hlint after about a year of travel, and I go back to the red light caves. For some reason I think that perhaps since this weird bug sent me to the Haven Mines, it would give me a good bug and have a grave in the caves. No such luck. So here I sit, under the tree in Hlint, cursing goblins and vowing to kill every single one that I meet.
Done in by a lowly goblin... I am so envious by it's tactical ability that I hate it!
