Death List (Possible Spoilers)

[Renodox]

Well, I said these wouldn't be posted last year and they weren't. I had spent hours playing the game and managed to find 55 deaths on my own and Erpy had generously helped me find the last 4. Compare these to the original death list and see just how much had really changed!

1. Swim too long – Not terribly fit, are you? Swimming for too long was a bit too much!
2. Talk into cave – Haven't you learnt to knock first? Oh wait, you can't knock on thin air. Well, that should have been your first clue.
3. Try to enter cave before dispelling bat symbol – You saw black glow. You did not slow. You turned not away. You've had your day.
4. Fall into rough water – The undercurrent pulls you under and drags you far out to sea. You have a quiet funeral, attended by all your new carnivorous friends.
5. You feel the poisonous water seeping into your skin. Its potency takes effect immediately and you perish in seconds.
6. Get caught by the Enchanter – What an enchanting encounter! Enjoy the rest of your life... as his pet.
7. Prick yourself with poison needle – As the poison immediately takes effect, you barely have seconds to decide this was not such a good idea.
8. Fall into the chasm or off mountain – You have just discovered the gravity of your situation.
9. Try to take coins without breaking trap – There are safer ways to trigger a trap... or didn't you notice it?
10. Get caught by Sharkee – You saw a Sharkee in the sea, He quickly made a meal of thee. If you want your life prolonged, Next time don't delay so long!
11. Approach Sharkee gate guards – Maybe a frontal approach wasn't a such good idea.
12. Swim in front of the Sharkee guards – Did you expect to just float by unnoticed? There are SOME intelligent guards out there.
13. Distract guards but don't go for trident – You had a window of opportunity, but you tossed the latter out of the former.
14. Take too long solving shell puzzle – You were never any good with these things at school.
15. Try to steal Sharkee's treasure – All that treasure was too much temptation for your greedy eyes. At least you didn't have look at it for long.
16. Fail to escape guards after getting trident – Your get away might be lacking something. Perhaps the ‘getting away' part?
17. Get caught by Sharkee after getting trident's power – You had the means to defend yourself. Perhaps you did not consider yourself worthy?
18. Get noticed by Hagatha in her cave – You wandered into the witch's lair and where you stood – gave not a care She soon saw you, and a smile she gave Your flesh, your blood and bones she craved.
19. Try to push Hagatha into her cauldron – Did you really think that tactic was going to work a second time?
20. Pick up bird without covering it – Ask the bird to be quiet next time?
21. Return to Hagatha's cave after stealing nightingale – Returning to the scene of the crime is never a good idea.
22. Drink the youth potion – Planning to start your life over? Unfortunately, your fair maiden won't be around by the time you become interested in women again.
23. Wait on top floor of antique shop after getting youth potion – Now you know how the floorboard spell works!
24. Walk too close to snake – You're hissssstory!
25. Use the emerald on the wrong stone – That's the danger in getting stoned.
26. Fail the cloud spirit's test – In the last fleeting moments of your life, you wonder whether you could have made some better choices.
27. Don't ride horse while cloud spirit dissolves – While trying to hang onto your knowledge of your future, you forgot to hang onto something important.
28. Stay in Dwarf's house too long – Getting caught snooping around someone's house usually has a negative consequence. Did you learn nothing from your experience with that witch last year?
29. Get pricked with poison thorns without protection – You feel a heavy coldness run through your entire body. Soon you are unable to stand. Finally, even your eyes become to heavy to keep open, and they close for the last time.
30. Approach ghosts without protection – Maybe you're taking the “If you can't beat them join them” philosophy too literally.
31. Enter graveyard without dealing with vampire – You tup with the spirits, and find only the graves...
32. Let the Count bite you – Down for the Count?
33. Fail Count's deadline – Down for the Count?
34. Take the wrong book in puzzle – You've become acquainted with the greatest book critique of all time.
35. Dig up wrong grave – You become acquainted with your new roommate. You will both be spending a lot of time together.
36. Get caught by wolf – You were once the finest knight in all of Daventry! Just what have you been doing this past year?
37. Get caught by wolf in Grandma's house – My, what sharp claws! All the better to...
38. Approach head werewolf – Oh, for howling out loud!
39. Shoot wrong werewolf – Choice of Tactic: Excellent Choice of Target: Deplorable
40. Shoot wolf with normal needle – You'll need more than silver alone to defeat this pack of wolves.
41. Attack normal wolf with sword – You are clearly outnumbered here. Perhaps a change of target would be wise.
42. Let the dwarf cut the bridge rope – Even if you had survived that, you now have no means of crossing to the other side. Your destiny is out of reach.
43. Give the dwarf a gem – You think giving away your only means of opening the Door of Destiny is the answer? In that case, there's this really nice bridge...
44. Don't climb up bridge – You managed to survive crashing into a cliff face, only to forget that you were still in danger.
45. Put growth gem in first – Unfortunately, your fair maiden won't be around by the time you become interested in women again. At least you'll have time to get your life in order.
46. Put death gem in first or second– As your flesh turns to dust and your bones clatter to the ground, you wonder if you had been thinking in an orderly manner.
47. Choose Galactic Realm – You've opted to leave your galaxy, in favor of another. Enjoy yourself, space jockey.
48. Choose Metro Realm – You've opted to spend the rest of your life in the most uncivilized world you can conceive.
49. Choose Past Realm – You have often wanted to go back into your past and try things differently. Enjoy the next year, Graham... you've lived it all before.
50. Choose Lizard Realm – Now this is the life. A world of wine, women and a quaint little term called “precautions.”
51. Choose Future Realm – You have opted to skip a large part of your life. Eager to get it over with?
52. Try to swim in Tower Realm – The under current pulls you under. The last thing you see are your hopes rising to the surface.
53. Leave without Valanice – You've exited this strange world. With no way of returning, you can kiss your fair lady good-bye – and even that is now impossible.
54. Fail Tower Door Puzzle – Sucked in again Graham?
55. Get too close to lion – That lion was large, ferocious and VERY hungry. You quite literally satisfied his appetite. Unfortunately, you are now very dead.
56. Attack old Hagatha in tower – You've got to watch that witch!
57. Don't deal with Old Hagatha in Tower – It looks like Hagatha had the last laugh!
58. Throw cat hair on Hagatha and wait – What a CAT-astrophe!
59. Get killed by young Hagatha – Guess the youth potion only works skin-deep.

Personally I like the original death message for the lion better, but... Tierra's message sounds more "sierra-like."

[Kijyata]

Galactic Realm I guess refers to SQ, Lizard Realm to LSL, Past and Future I guess are within the KQ series.. but Metro? Is that PQ? <p></p><i></i>

[adeyke]

I believe Metro Realm is from PQ1VGA. Also, the Past Realms is, specifically, from KQ1VGA and the Future Realm from the intro of KQ5. <p></p><i></i>

[Robby]

I found a new one yesterday. Charging with trident blazing. <p></p><i></i>

[Kijyata]

"Charging with trident blazing"? What did you do to get that one? <p></p><i></i>

[Robby]

After the arcade sequence I waited till the sharkees came out of the illusional wall and then used the trident on them. <p></p><i></i>

[Renodox]

I knew that there was one that I missed! Thank you! It just seemed so weird that there were 59 and not an even 60. <p></p><i></i>

[Robby]

How do you die by choosing a different "start of other Sierra Game" realm at the door of destiney. A death message just shows up. <p></p><i></i>

[Erpy]

I didn't quite understand what you meant by that. By choosing the wrong realm at the Door of Destiny, Graham ends up in another time or another world. (and you get a death message because you're no longer able to finish the game in that predicament)<br><br><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://httpd.chello.nl/c.vanempel/Nashu ... <!--EZCODE IMAGE END--> <p></p><i></i>

[Lira Lindriel]

[The Knight]

I loved being able to go to the other realms, they were so funny. <p>The Knight</p><i></i>

[Broomie]

a quest for glory realm would be cool,Glory Realm, graham's head is on the hero walking into Spielburg for the first time, VGA version of coarse, and the death message says; <br><br><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>"You are now on a quest for glory, but you found your previous one more glorius!" </strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--><br><br>but you can't have everything... <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... /smile.gif ALT=":)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> , good work on finding all the death messages. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START 8) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... lasses.gif ALT="8)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p></p><i></i>

[Purring Turtle]

That was the best idea not dealt with. I love QFG and it would have been great to finish with the "Glorious" plays on the it in KQ2vga. By the way, great job on everything. This game rocks hanks again guys!<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :rollin --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... s/roll.gif ALT=":rollin"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br>T <p></p><i></i>
