Karnack the Magnificent met his untimely end this weekend. Driving home, I realized that Karnack was born a loser, lived his life a loser, and ultimately died a loser as well. An all-around tragic hero if there ever was.

I felt like I was Charlie Brown with poofy pants.

I spent most of the weekend getting myself killed, mainly because I kept saying the one thing I shouldn't have (just like real life). Sometimes it was fun, sometimes the timing sucked.

On Saturday evening, I found out that the opportunity to complete my one mission that brought me to that cursed island came and went and I wasn't there. I was so angry and frustrated, I threw a hissy-fit in the village. I was then so depressed, I almost crawled into my bunk and refused to leave.

But then I decided that maybe I'd get another chance to go down in glorious flames. The opportunity didn't present itself again, but I had plenty of other moments. Favourite moments include:

1. Bitching out the priest of Strage (the evil god) and having my tongue ripped out for my insolence before I was sucked dry by a vampire.

2. I was beaten to a pulp for insulting a barbarian by spitting on his honor and his armor. He called me a liar! What else could I do?

3. I cast a blaspheming spell on a General while he was pep-talking his supporters. He was forced to swear like a sailor for an hour. A couple of his supporters actually walked away ("He can't speak to me like that!")!

4. I was getting ready to cast a stammering spell on another priest who was getting ready to raise a vampire from the dead (it wouldn't have kept him from performing the ceremony, but it would've been so funny), but I said the wrong thing to the barbarian and he killed me for it. Drat.

And in the end, because I had been knocked around a few times, I tried teleporting off the island into the astral plane, but I died in transit.

And so ends the legacy of Karnack the Magnificent.
