Jason the Demigod Monk was an unstoppable killing machine of justice.
He had a great mix of skills, plenty of neat equipment, and lots of
potential. That was, until the ambush...
After successfully defending himself against yet another group of orcs
in the Orcish Mines and looting their gold, he decided it was time to
revisit an armor shop he'd spotted earlier, for some nifty items. He
was somewhat wounded, but he'd only have to pass through rooms he'd
already cleared out, and had been in only recently. And, if a couple
or so orcs showed up, they'd be no trouble. But alas, the Random
Number God had other plans.
Jason cautiously crept up the stairway. To the east, he spotted a
single, common orc. He'd seen this happen before--sometimes, an enemy
(MAYBE two or three) would be found exploring a room he'd already
cleared. So, foolishly dropping his guard, he approached. He then saw
another orc, and orc wizard, and an orc priest. "Okay, this is still
no problem." He quaffed his last healing potion, and ran to attack the
orks blocking his way out, taking care to havea rock pillar between
himself and the orc priest as long as possible.
Then, something he couldn't expect happened--the wizard had a dagger
that was able to rip poor Jason to pieces, even through his
usually-effective armor. His life was quickly being lost, chunk by
chunk, and he had to make a choice: Use an item to turn invisible, or
to become berserk. Both seemed like cruddy ideas, but Jason knew that
if he berserked, he'd be able to slay the three remaining enemies
blocking his path, and he'd also heal up a little. So, Jason
berserked, and killed the orcs that were trying to kill him, one by
one.
Victorious but badly injured, Jason moved on a little further. And
just as he felt his strength begin to subside, he saw another orc
wizard, another orc priest, and a common orc with a runed halberd.
"This would be a great time to turn invisible." Jason passed out, and
the orcs moved in for the kill...
This is what happens when you let your guard down against those you
expect to be in fewer numbers. I guess now I know that orcs can be
regenerated in mass, at least in the mines. Bad luck and bad decisions
on my part lead to another annoying death.
