Loch Gloomen Invasion

[Havard]

I was out of town when this battle was fought. Svenny was taken along as an NPC without asking me. As I understand it, the other players decided to see how far Svenny could go without their support. They may have thought that Svenny could win the battle by himself. Svenny was killed after killing over 200 Orcs singlehandedly. Dave Arneson apologized to me when I came home (weeks later) and had Bishop Carr resurrect him. I was not briefed on the other details of the battle or maybe I didn't hear the other details...

Thanks for sharing your memories on this Greg!
I can understand your frustration with having your character die when you were absent. I had the same thing happen to one of my characters, although to be fair I had accepted that they would use him.

Something else that I find interesting about this is your groups use of ressurrection. I recall another example, I believe from the adventure with the WWII crossover where Dave commented that everyone were brought back to life afterwards.

Would you say that such magic was more commonly allowed when things got a bit more on the experimental side?
