The Many Deaths of Drago Musevi

Your Adventures End Here..........
I knew Skyrim was going to be a bit.....unforgiving at times. And I was ready for that. I knew good ol' Drago Musevi (my Elder Scrolls Nord Warrior) wasn't going to just jog through the place without getting a few scars (so to speak) along the way. And that was O.K. What I wasn't expecting was the myriad ways that that poor bastard would die in a less than honorable fashion. Whenever he gets to Sovngarde he'll be the laughing stock. I just know it.

Let me share with you a few of those.....deaths.

1. - Chasing butterfly in woods. Attacked and killed by two bears.

2. - Tried to steal a goat from a Giant. Part of the 'A Night to Remember' quest. Villager's prized goat got sold to a nearby Giant. Tried to steal it back. Giant got angry, thought I could take it (level 32). Two hits and I'm launched into the air for about 10 seconds before I hit dirt. Hell, I was already dead by then.

3. - Ice Troll near High Hrothgar. No the Troll didn't kill me. I backpedaled right off a cliff, down the mountain and probably broke every bone in my body as I watched myself rag-doll all the way to the bottom.

4. - Needed a Mammoth Tusk for a vendor in Riften. Smacked Mammoth once. Gored and trampled to death by said Mammoth.

5. - Got off my horse to kill a couple of Bandits. During the fight I hit my horse by accident. The horse reared up and kicked me dead.

6. - Thought I could sneak up behind some skeletons in an underground cave (can't remember the exact one). Accidentally hit a trap plate that opened the grates under my feet. Fell to my death on a bunch of wooden spikes below.

7. - Got turned into a Vampire. Didn't keep track of Vampire "stages". Went into Whiterun when I hit that final stage, whole town attacked me. I got better after I reloaded and drank some blood. Then finally got rid of the diseases in a sidequest. Seriously, being a vampire in this game is awful. Worse than Oblivion. By ten times even.

8. - Wounded when fighting a Necromancer, backpedaled to cast healing spell.....right off a tower to my death.

Seriously, I really need to start paying attention to my environments.....

9. - Followed a river that had a large falls near a farm. Thought I could leap from this very high place into river below and cut down on travel time to farm.

The water at the bottom wasn't very deep........

10. - Thought I killed a Spriggan Matron once. Was sitting there reaching for my tea, controller in lap, before I realized that she'd only curled up to heal. Dead before I could reach controller. :/

11. - Dragon attacked Orc settlement. Used devastation spells to kill it. Hit Orc Chief by accident during fight, whole settlement attacked and killed me. Even after I tried to surrender.

I'm pretty sure there's gonna be more, but for now, I thought I'd share the few....memorable deaths I've had so far.

To Be Continued (I just know it).
