Well, this was my best character ever dead to a horribly ignominous end.
Yvonne got off to an astoundingly lucky start, killing Hotzenplotz and his
cronies for starters and then heading straight to the SMC and down into the
UD, where she had the incredible god luck to find not one, but two crystal
tower shields. Using both of these and killing everything with burning hands
and bolt spells, she soon made it out of the UD, through the HMV and back to
Terinyo. She then went and put paid to Keethrax, in order to pass the time,
before setting off for the Caverns of Chaos. No problem until, on level 9,
she found a river. Fortunately it was only one square wide at its narrowest
point, so, being a drakeling, she decided to swim across. She despatched the
water snakes on the other side with frost bolts, one of which froze the
river. She set off to cross it, but the ice cracked under her weight. She
wasn't unduly bothered by this, having planned to swim anyway, but then she
noticed one lone water snake on the far shore, on the square she planned to
step onto. She decided that being a water snake, she didn't need to waste a
spell on it, so she (or rather I) just pressed the direction key a few
times, sadly forgetting that Yvonne wasn't, at the time, wielding a weapon.
Poor Yvonne continued ineffectually bashing away at the snake with her
shield until she drowned and sank like a stone. Oops.

YOUR HISTORY:
Your parents belong to the nobility. They are rich, respected,
wealthy and own more than they can count.
As a child you had to survive pretty harsh times since your parents
seemed to have run out of luck. Their wealth was ever-declining and times
were very hard.
During your youth you embarked on many small journeys to nearby
towns on behalf of your parents. You learned to know lots of people and
made many friends.
As a young adult you spent a lot of time searching for a deeper
meaning and purpose in your life. You pondered and pondered but nothing
truly sparked your interest. Finally, after many many hours, you made a
decision.
You decided to become an Elementalist.
