  5.   542267  Matthew the High-Elf Mage, Level 33
               Killed by an Ancient multi-hued dragon on dungeon level 40
               (User 1024, Date 2008-12-04, Gold 170636, Turn 1804423).

Classic error, really - AMHDs can do up to 700HP of damage from poison breath, and it's quite a hard resist to pick up (my character didn't have it). Learn when to run away!

I started playing again recently, and died on about the fourth trip down, due to incaution (and the inevitable spell-failing-at-critical-moment problem):
  9.    43294  Matthew the High-Elf Mage, Level 26
               Killed by Shagrat, the Orc Captain on dungeon level 21
               (User 1024, Date 2009-01-11, Gold 17499, Turn 865502).

No dump for that one, because it wasn't very interesting, but I feel I'm getting better on the whole, and enjoying the game more. I should probably get an angband userpic at some point. Suggestions?
