Me thinks the RNG will give you loads and loads of greater undead vaults and the courage to think you are able to clear them out...

Augh. It's characters like this that make savescumming so bloody tempting. :p

I'll bet that Thunrarr (that's the dwarven elder, right?) will ask you to slay a greater moloch now. ^_^
Move the cursor to the desired position and press [SPACE] when done.
Impossible. Suddenly you stand elsewhere.

Thrundarr. But close enough ;)

You will never ever find an amulet of life saving or another wish to get it, and die of corruption. That's what I'm predicting.

If you do find those, then it's a tension room full of emperor liches on D:48 for you, inside the room with the fire anomaly.
You drop the golden ball.
You kick the golden ball. It slides to the west.
Suddenly Harry Potter, the apprentice wizard, appears! "That's not how you play Quidditch! are you even listening?"
Which direction? (123456789) 4
Harry Potter, the apprentice wizard, is hit by a bolt of acid! Harry Potter, the apprentice wizard, is annihilated.
You hear the ecstatic cries of a large crowd!

Thundarr said 'kill a giant lizard' and they had seemed to become extinct while i was at the pub :), but true story to no amulets of lifesaving, no rings of ice, no djinns, But using Wyrmlance he killed the greater water dragon while slowed, bloated and burdened, went from level 16 to level 34 hahahahah am going for some ultraending maybe

Eh-heh..
I (as playing Drakish Mindcrafter) tried to get a third precrown (LN) in unremarkable dungeon on level 6. Two first ones were RoI and Skullcrusher. I sacked monsters for days.. and days.. and days.. Stopped when I got as close to lvl 17 as 10k xp's and almost reached the pyramide limit. In addition - it was day 48 when I finally gave up. Grrr!

I looked at my loot and among tons of rubbish found a little compensation for hours of real life time wasted - RoDS. :)
RNG still has some mercy for patient ones.

Now the problem is getting 7LBs for ToHK, ToEF, Bulp's mom, another Hloleinthewall and Terinyo visit.. Without them 90th day is looming...

My orcish paladin,(Everburn) managed to get a wish from the Darkforge for Khelly, and he just went thru the Wall of Flames in the Coc to get the message 'You feel truely excited, you feel a surge of power'

YAY!

The surge of power was Broxendriar, the hippogriff, he left behind skullcrusher
The Truely excited was Giants (which he smacked down dual-wielding evrburning torches), which left me the sapphire amulet and the protector shield
Also got the rune covered trident at last, and a quarterstaff of devastation and a ring of the djinn! I think ill go after the Multiheaded chaos dragon, deliver the last gift to the old crone and finally get myself crowned...

Prepare for more speechless then, this is unbelievable but true>

on d34, Everburn got *another* surge of power! two in one game! The guardian was An-Almaar, the extremely experienced doppleganger king, who fell to repeated hellish flames and magic missile, he left behind the hammer of the gods...

Then at character level 39,

Spoiler
he went to the smc with 6 rings of searching, 3 PoEx later i have 6 rings of djinni summoning!
(a first for me, ever) i think Everburn is going to become a very powerfull character...

Went down thru casino (no artifacts) and on to find the cat lord before going to find the Multiheaded chaos dragon, also used a djinn to get a wand of Monster creation, as none have been generated so far, not even in the casino.

so now have amulet and crown of chaos, might get the trident *and* the scepter, just for fun, This will be my first Ultra ending, unless Everburn dies from stupidity...

And just down a few levels i get another truely exciting vault, this one being the undead, i started to tackle it but then thought id go kill blue dragons instead...

Speaking of RNG giving, then taking...

Gnome barbarian, found a stone spear of devastation early on. Used it exclusively from then on until encountered a mixed tension room containing a ratling fencer/duelist...

Oh well, gnome barbarians suck ass big time, anyway...

Don't fight that g. undead vault muffin, you'll die of old age! That wouldn't be so funny now wouldn't it? :)

I seriously believe that the RNG does some kind of luck roll on the character creation.

Well, Everburn is level 50, and has gotten all the orbs, the scepter, and the trident, needle and sting, he's able to survive csting Divine Intervention, all thats left to do is d50 and the Greater Undead Vault (already killed an Emperor Lich down in Infinity,
I still have 5 wishes spare, wondering whether to use them for Mana, Power, PoMana, or 5 PoGattributes, or some scrolls of chaos resistance (probally a good bet)

I just had Serpent's Bite generated on level 7 of the PC. With an Orcish Paladin. I should have fled; instead I stuck around to duke it out with a werewolf lord. Grond now rests in the eternal resting halls of Stupid Character Deaths.

But I'll try again. For some reason, all the orcish paladins I've ever played have had the luck.

Yay! Everburn has become an Avatar of Balance!
I used my wishes to up my stats by 5 points,

Spoiler
and ended up using 18 potions of exchange to get another pile of djinn rings, which i used for scrolls of chaos resistance


Ill post his story and stats on the hall of fame sometime, Everburn has probally been my luckiest character ever, he relied pretty heavily on combat throughout most of the game, although at d50 and the earlier greater undead vault he used the priestly equivalent of Improved Fireball to great effect, had it up to a 3 square radius *BOOM!*

Basic ending stats were thus:
Everburn, the Orcish Paladin

St:66 Le:50 Wi:53 Dx:62 To:58 Ch:65 Ap:36 Ma:70 Pe:40
N=
DV/PV: 60/63
H:1129(1269) P:0(1158)
Exp: 50/60175443
ChAoS Sp: 150

as i rarely play spell casters, this is the highest pp value ive ever had, also one of the highest scores, also a first for me was converting all the Elemental Altars, I really thought i'd get some reward for this, but nothing showed up :(

Congratulations on the Ultra, muffin! I had my human wizard ULE wannabe, which was doing *very* good (already satisfied demented ratling and Gaab'Baay),
drowned in the water dragon lair while healing my pet for alignment boost! Now that was a **very** stupid death. Oh well.
