The question is why did you die?


And the answer is usually because the DM didn't have any other way for the players to fail.





you keep saying this and while i agree there are multiple ways for players to fail that isnt death but when your in combat and people are trying to stab/crush/disembowl/digest/incinerate/turn in to mince meat. if you fail there then in a good number of cases (not all, but most) you will die

The sad part for the Keep on the Shadowfell for me was it boiled down to the Druid and the Psion left standing.

The Psion was a changeling and if he had ran I knew he would be able to easily infiltrate the hobgoblins and rescue his commrades in arms.

There were standing next to a door (althouth they didn't know where it went).  The player of the Psion turned to me and said "I'm going to run for it." Before I could respond the Druid player turned to him and called him a coward (it was more vulgar but you get the idea).   The Druid player was in fact the Psion player actual girlfriend.

I turned to her and stated that it was player of the Psion character decided what he would do Psion I turned back to him and asked what he wanted to do.

But after the Druid's outburst the Psion player decided to stay and fight it out.  They both dropped shortly afterward and were captured with the rest.  Later I asked the Psion player why he decided to stay and fight but he didn't feel comfortable in answering the question.

I still feel guilty about that incident.
